The Sun of God
Olivia Bown Flinders
When I was a child
I didn’t spell things right
And I thought the Son of God
was actually
the Sun of God
So every time
I looked at the sun
I thought I was looking at Jesus
Hey Jesus
while I ran on the playground
Hey Jesus
while I rolled in the grass
Hey Jesus
while I swam in the ocean
Jesus makes me warm!
Jesus gives me light!
Jesus wants me for a sunbeam!
And now looking back
I think I was spelling Sun right
all along
