The wildflower grew

   and no one knew

 nobody saw

                          but God

It existed only to give God pleasure 

For no one but God ever saw

             this tiniest of treasures

yet it's worth was beyond measure 

There are those who serve God and no one sees

 no one knows          no one perceives 

but God

                 He sees and knows every sacrifice, 

                  every consecrated life 

                 lived not for personal gain or glory

                  or to seek the praise or attention of men

                but to please God alone

                 who sees what is done in secret

                 and lays up a reward in Heaven,

               our eternal home
