look with delight and wonder,
On the beauties that God has made;
The trees I'm their magic sweetness,
The dark and the light green shade.
The rays of the sun fall gently,
There is calm without. within;
oh wondrous earth so fair
Though darkened by death and sin
Soft winds are creeping
Through the green leaves OF the
trees;
My heart is filled with love divine
With every gentle breeze.
Sweet strains of music hear
In the distance dim and sweet,
Falling softly on my ear,
Making my earthly dream complete.
Beautiful earth. so beautiful
Thou art filed with light and love.
With ripping streams, and singing
birds
Typical of the world above.
