When I take the road, very early in the morning
I have the route drawn. clear and meticulously

After a long time
running fast on two wheels
Under sun and rain
it emerges on landscape

It rises sovereign in the firmament
It seems to want to welcome me like a son
I do not know where it starts, or where it ends
It knows I'm here to admire it

For God, all my reverence
All my prayer for the Rocky Mountains
I thank God for its grandeur
And its nature, the Rocky Mountains

I have eyes to gloat and see
In ecstasy, The Rocky Mountains
My soul rejoices how the green
it is seen on The rocky Mountains

I am open-mouthed for that amazing enormity
So Wonderful place
Blessed by God

I will tell my children and grandchildren
I had been here
I always I will be back

Since it emerged with the Laramide Orogeny
Time and nature carved it masterfully
Long ago, it was a huge ocean
Full of exotic fishes and ammonites
