​God’s Beautiful World   Kathleen Holsinger ©2025
Lord, how can I thank you sufficiently,
For beauty so reminiscent.
Of your handiwork that we witnessed,
On our voyage so filled with your richness.
From the spinning windmills in Amsterdam,
To the graceful swans that beautifully swam.
Along the winding river of the Rhine,
Such sights to behold; completely divine!
From the countryside with colorful vines,
To the castles dotting the beautiful Rhine.
Majestic and reaching up to the sky,
Your hand in this beauty no one can deny.
The cathedrals surrounded in stained glass windows,
The sun shining through casting beautiful rainbows.
Along the sides of the very grand structure,
Oh Lord, so much elegance for us to capture!
The violinists’ hands gliding over the strings,
Accompanying the couple who dance the waltz swing.
The sights and sounds of this unique combo,
God can only unite and make them flow.
The night lights in Budapest; a sight to behold,
More brilliant than silver; than silver and gold.
They lit up the sky with a beautiful glow,
We praise you Lord for your dazzling night show.
A voyage like this comes once in a lifetime.
God’s creation so apparent, so sublime,
Experiencing these spectacular sights,
I worship and praise you God of glory and might!
