Preserving the beauty of ancient times
Offering wisdom in the folds of its age,
This old country calls me back again
Whispering peace and assurance today.
Stretch forth your arms, oh mighty Alps,
Tell your story to the weary at heart.

Let your brooks sing their lovely [...]]]></description>

May her warmth bring healing comfort to your broken heart.
May the wind whisper his eternal truths into your ears -
May you sense his abiding strength as well as his tender mercies.
