Ode to Appalachia

On the mountaintop

Where all things are made new

We'll grow old and young

 

In the forest shade

Where Nature hides her treasure

Our songs will be sung

 

When the sunlight fades

Constellations fill the sky

We will find our truth

 

And when new day dawns

We will greet the morning light

Full of life and youth

 

     In the cool autumn sun

     We'll make two into one

     And we'll let loose our joy

     As our fears come undone

 

     We'll write a thousand hymns

     Knit a fabric of our dreams

     And live to see them all fulfilled

     And bursting at the seams
