Come walk with me now
To see nature's gift
The beauty fulfilling
My mind all adrift
The trees that are blessed
With beauty to share
They shade me with love
Like unspoken prayer
The butterflies roam
They rest gracefully
Within smallest branch
Their colors lovely
The biblical sky
So reverently shown
Brings peace to this land
Earth's most royal throne
To walk on this earth
With love that abounds
The wonder of nature
Our very own crown
The water cascading
Into rushing cool streams
To quench all our thirst
This water redeems
Greatest magnificence
Here on this earth
Gifted by nature
Sweet token of birth
We stand in this glory
While softly we pray
Give thanks for the beauty
God smiles every day.
