Beyond the City
What a nice drive today.
Good to get away,
From the city and it's noise....
To seek other joys,
And here in this solitude
Of a back country road,
My mind is glued
To what thou hath shown!
There's the glory of the sunlight
As it peeks through the trees,
As it shineth on them....
And there's that soft country breeze!
I can hear the sound
Of birds up above,
And on the ground.....
There's a squirrel and a dove.
There's the girgle of the brook,
And wherever I look, o Lord....
Thy beauty it shows!
