The sky is clear but for a soft glow
and the dark silhouette of mountains and trees
reflecting back still images I see
while walking the path along the still lake
I lift my eyes to a twilight sky
feeling grateful, for it’s been a good day
My heart rejoices, and I silently pray
How great is Your name, ever faithful and true
all that I need or ever hope to be
I need only to trust in You.
