I Had A Ride Through The Forest
I had a ride through the forest
What beauty there to see
All the wild life coming close
In the trees tall as can be
I loved the scenery
The bears, the deer and fish
Such things in my life
I never usually see.
I had a ride through the forest
I rode a boat along the way
On the river I saw
Nature's wonderful display
The beaver and the crocodile
Creatures of all kinds
The birds, the swan and butterfly
God made these living creatures
The pleasure to be mine
I had a friend come with me
To show me of "God's Art"
For it is He who made the world
With loving animals to be a part
All things are so beautiful
If you see them with your heart
My friend showed me
How true love in me can start.
