A Sunday Walk

On Sunday we walked upon the fells

Down in the valley they rang church bells,

Calling forth the flock to pray

And cheering us on our way.

We may not be sat on pews,

But look upon God given views.

A pastor's sermon we may miss

But know the lord created this.

How otherwise could there be,

These mountains, of such majesty.

Before this glory, here we stand

Created surely, by his hand.
