Steps we take to paradise
While on this earth below
The beauty of magnificence
The glory that we know

Majestic trees against the sky
They reach so way up high
Breathlessly I find myself
In awe of nature's sigh

Paths that lead to crystal streams
That cool you in the day
Quiet sounds of nature's love
For me they seem to pray

Wandering within this bliss
My heart will always see
What beauty lies upon the earth
That sets the heart so free

Beauty in a butterfly
That sweetly flutters by
Glory in the colors of
Nature's sweet reply.
