I Know a Place
I know a place where no one ever goesThere is peace and quiet,
Beauty and repose
It's hidden in a valley
Beside a mountain stream
And lying here beside the stream,
I find that I can dream
Only of things of beauty to the eye
Snow-peaked mountains tow'ring to the sky
Now I know that God has made this world for me
And you and everybody too.
One can imagine herself as in a dream
Climbing up a mountain or
Down a small ravine
The magic of this peace and quiet
Always shall stay
To make this place a haven
For each and every day
Oh how I wish I never had to leave
All my life such beauty to receive
Now I know that God has made this world for me
And you and everybody too.
(Additional Verses) Sitting in silence beside the mountain stream
I thank God for the vision of my dream
The friends that have been made
The joys that have been mine
The chance for love and sharing
'Neath the tall straight pines
White clouds on high and blue skies up above
May I always live the life I love
Now I know that God has made this world for me
And you and everybody too.
As our camp closes, good-byes we have to say
Being here together ends a perfect day
The joys of friendship we have felt
Always will remain
Deep within our hearts
To be made the same again
And as we leave we know we shall return
To this place to live and laugh and learn
Now I know that God has made this world for me
And you and everybody too.
