Coppiced tree trunks bronze and silver amid Banks of blue
A broad white path through a swathe of green
And flashes of bright colour along
a woodland path
The colour, light and shade of life
Stories told, burdens shared
Pilgrims on an ancient route, side by side or single file
Through fallow fields and burgeoning blossom
In sharp sunlight or shady
woodland we journey together
Make us know the way we should walk,
O Lord See that we follow not the wrong path
But lead us in the path of life eternal.
