The Elderberry Bush
Dear Lord, I'm thankful, for a wish come true
For each Sunday morn, I look at you
Lo! when the chapel window opens wide
I raise my leafy leaves and look inside
I love to hear the organ softly play
And watch the faithful, bow their heads and pray
Though I am nothing but an humble bush
I'm growing here, because, it is your wish.
Inspired by an elderberry bush that grows at the St. Joseph's chapel window
