Images (Summer)


I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.

I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills,
from whence cometh my help.

I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills,
from whence cometh my help.

— Psalms 121:1 KJV —


Green and silver, blue and gold, rose and tan and light
spread o’er the earth and sea and sky in hues from dim to bright,
while coat-free breezes call us out and offer warm respite
from indoor refuge, out to fields and hills, and water bright,
to run and play and hope and dream and work while there is light.
Lord, help us always do these looking upward to your Light.

Please also enjoy YouTube audio (with a static album cover visual) of one of my favorite choral works, John Rutter’s radiant setting of Psalm 121, I Will Lift Up Mine Eyes, as sung by his Cambridge Singers.
