(Dolly Parton)

Today as I was walking
|
In the fields just down the way
|
I sat down on a fallen log
|
To pass the time away
|
|
And as I looked around me
|
The more that I did look
|
the more I realize that I am viewing
|
God's coloring book
|
|
I saw a golden ray of sunlight
|
A silver drop of dew
|
A soft, white floating cloud
|
Sailing cross the sky 'a blue
|
|
A yellow dandelion
|
Pretty evergreen
|
And some red and orange flowers
|
Growing wild along the stream
|
|
And the more I look around me
|
And the more that I do look
|
The more I realize that I am viewing
|
God's coloring book
|
|
The grain and sand in old man's hair
|
The pink in BeeBee's cheeks
|
The blackness in a stormy sky
|
The brown in fallen leaves
|
|
And the multicolored rainbow
|
Stretched out across the sky
|
And the purple haze at sunset
|
Just before the night
|
|
And the more I look around me
|
And the more that I do look
|
The more I realize that I am viewing
|
God's coloring book
|
|
Then I turn my face toward the sky
|
And say a silent prayer
|
Though God doesn't speak to me
|
I see him everywhere
|
|
He is all around me
|
He's everywhere I look
|
And each new day is but a new page
|
In God's coloring book
|
|
Each new day is but a new page
|
In God's coloring book
|
|
Hmmmmmm
