I love the sun

Representative Text

1 I love the sun,
it shines on me;
God made the sun,
and God made me.

2 I love the stars,
they twinkle on me;
God made the stars,
and God made me.

3 I love the rain,
it splashes on me;
God made the rain,
and God made me.

4 I love the wind,
it blows round me;
God made the wind,
and God made me.

5 I love the birds,
they sing to me;
God made the birds,
and God made me.
