Australia

Australia;

I am your child.

I am long summer days, 

Mountain, river, plains.

I am free, 

to sit under trees and daydream your beauty.

I bravely weather your storms, or your fires...

I am loyal, and thankful, feel your spirit, take pride in your name!

And praise the Lord,

That people, long before and since I, 

Arrived here, and made you their home,

So that I may be, your faithful child, pondering...

My passion and my delight in such a guardian, and friend, as you!
