A Genevian Day of Perfection

There we were on holiday to a special land Switzerland a place of beauty and history staying in Wilderswil just outside Interlaken this was going to be a very special story This day we got on the Geneva-bound train a journey across Switzerland 3 hours long to the great city, we were bound for sure so excited my heart was full of song Since my conversion to believing in Christ have read of the Lord's blessed reformation in Geneva where He placed John Calvin this great man faithfully preached God's salvation The first day there to the Reformation wall there stands Calvin, Farel, Beza and Knox in statute formed of stone, they stand reminders these men held the divine torch Following back to St Peters Cathedral in the city's old town it does stand walking in you feel greatness lived there looking to Calvin's pulpit here was God's hand This day I won't ever forget it's special see where my hero once did walk a Genevian day of perfection as it was remembering where Jesus once did rock! (I've Chosen a day in my life when everything just went perfectly, especially unexpectedly. I have taken you to that day in the early 90s.)
