My Spiritual Anchor (an original poem by Gene Allen Groner)

1.  Nature is my spiritual anchor

     The place where I go to clear my mind

2.   I go out each day and walk three miles

      Among the trees and under the sun

3.   At night I like walking out under the stars

      It's especially nice when the moon shines above

4.   Wherever I am and wherever I go

      My spiritual anchor is always close by

5.   We were born in a garden, the Garden of Eden

      I return there often as I walk out of doors

6.   Outside in nature is where I belong

      The world and the universe are God's abode

7.   I imagine Him walking right beside me

      We talk as we walk, my Father and me

8.   It calms my spirit and lifts up my soul

      When I am in nature my heart is so full

9.   My spiritual anchor is the place I love best

      I can go there each day and it brings peace and rest.
