Magnolia Tree
The church has a magnolia just outside the door
Looking at its beauty, you couldn’t ask for more.
Its been there for ages and is a splendid sight
And it now has reached a most impressive height.
It started as a little bush but has grown and grown.
It’s the biggest of its kind that I have ever known!
In the spring and summer its glory is unfurled
As good a sight as you will see throughout all the world.
For years the church’s children have climbed among its boughs
Each child as adventurous as their mum allows!
You would think this treatment would have made it bare
But that hardy beauteous tree stands still in splendour there!
I thank my God for beauty which we can all enjoy
No matter what the ages of any girl or boy.
