The Feeling of Freedom
By Patrick Daly

As I walk through the countryside on a glorious September day,
I can hear the soft breeze blowing through the trees
And the birds chirping in the trees
And I feel as free as the soft September breeze
I can feel the country air going through my lungs
This makes me think of how wonderful it is
To be able to walk through the countryside
And feel as free as the soft September breeze
As I stroll a bit further along I can hear a rippling stream
Flowing as free as the September breeze
I pause for a moment and I say to myself how wonderful it is
To be as free as the soft September breeze
As I walk a little further along I come to a stub of a tree
Where I sit for a while to feel the real freedom
Of the beautiful countryside on a September day
To be as free as the soft September breeze
While I am sitting in silence my mind wanders
And I ask myself do we really appreciate the beauty and freedom
That surrounds us in the beautiful countryside that God has given us?
Where I feel as free as I ever will be in the soft September breeze
Just before I leave for my journey home
I pause for one last moment to feel the freedom of the countryside
And I say to myself how wonderful it would be if the whole world
Was as peaceful and free as the countryside in the soft September breeze
