THE COUNTRY FAITH by NORMAN ROWLAND GALE

First Line: HERE IN THE COUNTRY'S HEART
Last Line: AND THE BEST OF ALL!
Subject(s): COUNTRY LIFE; NATURE; RELIGION; THEOLOGY;

HERE in the country's heart
Where the grass is green,
Life is the same sweet life
As it e'er hath been.
Trust in a God still lives,
And the bell at morn
Floats with a thought of God
O'er the rising corn.
God comes down in the rain,
And the crop grows tall --
This is the country faith,
And the best of all!
