Making Believers

Written at Lake Laberge, Yukon Territory, July 22, 1998.

You say that you think there's no Heaven
Then look out o'er this wild Yukon lake
Why, it's there friend in all that's before you
Tell your senses to reach out and take

Fill your mind and your soul with its beauty
Fill your lungs with this clean mountain air
Yes, this land by His hand was created
And the Lord, by His nature, will share

If your vision of life's become tainted
By the hussle and hassle back there
Then your worries all shake-by this Heaven sent lake
And replace them with what you see there

And then go and just talk to the people
Who inhabit this fabulous land
And you'll know then for sure there's a Heaven
It's right there in the palm of your hand!
