What do you think? I am thinking of having this printed up real nice and put in a frame with a "nature" type background and giving it to Steve for a graduation present. I think it would look nice in a new "Environmental Scientist" office somewhere!

This is My Father's World

This is my Father's world,
and to my listening ears
all nature sings, and round me rings
the music of the spheres.
This is my Father's world:
I rest me in the thought
of rocks and trees, of skies and seas;
his hand the wonders wrought.

This is my Father's world,
the birds their carols raise,
the morning light, the lily white,
declare their maker's praise.
This is my Father's world:
he shines in all that's fair;
in the rustling grass I hear him pass;
he speaks to me everywhere.

This is my Father's world.
O let me ne'er forget
that though the wrong seems oft so strong,
God is the ruler yet.
This is my Father's world:
why should my heart be sad?
The Lord is King; let the heavens ring!
God reigns; let the earth be glad!

That would be lovely! You should look around the internet and see if anyone already has something like that for sale, I'd think you could find it against ocean or mountains or whatever.

I think that would be really nice. He'll treasure it.

That is lovely, 2J, and perfectly captures the requirement that we all be good stewards of this world that has been given to us.
