All around is white
Cathy Jeanes, Burlington
What a lovely sight, everything is white.
The bushes, trees, the poles, the wires,
the sky, the ground,
and all around is white!
What a pearly sight, everywhere is white.
The city lights, the way too bright,
the gate, the Lord,
and all around is white!
What an awesome sight, everywhere is white.
The people pure, for pain a cure,
our praises sound,
and all around is white!
