This is the cactus garden at the Huntington Library.
It is a good example of native plants of the southwest
desert.
Today's poem was taken from Psalm 75
WE GIVE THANKS TO YOU
We give thanks to you, O God.
We give thanks to Your Name.
We give thanks for your wonderful deeds
And that You always remain the same.
You choose the appointed time
And judge of all the earth You are,
You hold the earth's pillows firm.
You placed the moon and each star.
The arrogant will have no boast.
The wicked will have no say,
When You lift Your own
On that eternal day.
No one from the east to the west
Or from the desert to the sea, can we find,
One with the saving power...
That You have for all mankind.
We will sing Your praises.
Your love, we will declare.
You will guide our footsteps,
We are in Your care!
