Latium rises with the morning sun
We are arriving, our flying done
Ahead we think of streets and scenes
Rome is a mystery that we will see
Pastel shades, and churches of old
Developing word foretold
Paul was here and now we stand
This day is joy, our journey becomes our quest
There will be many days that are long
Meals and friendship and hearts entwined
For just this time we will be near
The activity of God in history
This is the day the Lord has made
We will rejoice in it and claim its joy
Our hearts are wedded to this trek
Feet and soul committed to Thee
Overview just ahead then on to the Lancelot
Roman review and devotionals too
This is a blessing for me
Rome is the place to be
