Tom : G
G D7 C G
Today as I was walking in the fields just down the way
D7 C G
I sat down on a fallen log to pass the time away
C
And as I looked around me the more that I did look
G D7 G
The more I realized that I was viewing God's coloring book
C G
I saw a golden ray of sunlight a silver drop of dew
D7
A soft white floating cloud sailing across the sky of blue
G C
A yellow dandelion pretty evergreen
G D7 G
And some red and orange flowers growing wild along the stream
C
And the more I look around me the more that I do look
G D7 G
The more I realize that I was viewing God's coloring book
D7 C G
The grain of sand in an old man's hair the pink in baby's cheeks
D7 C G
The blackness in a stormy sky the brown in fallen leaves
C
And the multicolored rainbow stretched across the sky
G D7 G
And the purple haze at sunset just before the night
C
And the more I look around me the more that I do look
G D7 G
The more I realize that I was viewing God's coloring book
D7 C G
Then I turn my face toward the sky and say a silent prayer
D7 C G
Though God doesn't speak to me I see Him everywhere
C
He is all around me He's everywhere I look
G D7 G
And each new day is but a new page in God's coloring book
D7 C G
Yes each new day is but a new page in God's coloring book
