Land of Sunset Skies

Land of Sunset Skies, sunrise in your eyes,
 
praise to Christ who’s risen in your life.

Swirling in the mist, earth and heaven kiss,
 
Jesus gives the Spirit to our lives
 
Jesus gives the Spirit to our lives.

All creation sings to the God who brings,
 
rhythm to the seasons of the heart,
 
listen to the sound Christ is all around

Feel the heart beat drumming in your life.

Feel the heart beat drumming in your life.

Pelicans in flight, Brolgas in delight,
 
dancing to the rhythm of the earth.

Kookaburras laugh, Honeyeaters sing
 
Wattlebirds that echo in the trees,
 
Wattlebirds the echo in the trees.

Creatures creep at night, Gum trees in their sight.

Silhouetted by the sunset skies.

Colours in their hue, crimson azure-blue,
 
radiate your Light o’er all the earth,
 
radiate your Light o’er all the earth.

See Kingfishers dive, turquoise flame alive,
 
red and ochre streaming from her wings,
 
immersed in waters deep, the food of life she seeks,
 
nourished well she feeds the hungry beaks,
 
nourished well she feeds the hungry beaks.
