Morning In The Mountains

Filed under: Family,God's Creation,Outings — Joy @ 4:01 pm

This morning we loaded up the car with kiddos and extended family in tow and we journeyed up to the mountains. It was so refreshing to breakaway from suburbia and be deep within the Lord’s creation. It was sweet to see Charis playing in the creek, to breath in the fresh air and to be at a slower pace enjoying all that God has made! I found my heart singing this hymn as the morning wandered on…

For the beauty of the earth,
for the glory of the skies,
for the love which from our birth
over and around us lies;
Lord of all, to thee we raise
this our hymn of grateful praise.

For the beauty of each hour
of the day and of the night,
hill and vale, and tree and flower,
sun and moon, and stars of light;
Lord of all, to thee we raise
this our hymn of grateful praise.
