The Snowdonia National Park takes its name from Snowdon which, at 1085m (3,560 feet), is the highest peak in Wales and England. In Welsh, Snowdon used to be called Yr Wyddfa Fawr (the Great Tomb or the Great Throne) or Carnedd y Cawr (the Cairn of the Giant). Nowadays it is simply called Yr Wyddfa, but the various names bear testament to a land steeped in legends, history and tradition. This is the ancient Kingdom of Gwynedd, the heart of Wales and the stronghold of 'Cymraeg', the Welsh Language. The Welsh name for the National Park is Eryri (The Highland).

Jerusalem



Your walls stand proudly, the city surround,

Erect in Truth and Faith!

Your saints are gathered, inward bound,

In Freedom, not Enslaved!

No Man could ever build a place, worthy of the Lord,

For he himself is Great!

For everything a man has made, defended by the sword,

Delivered by his fate!

I see a vision of your Divine, home is near to me,

Still waiting by the gate!

Your holy presence in my mind, with all that I can be,

My spirit in your state!

Heavenly glory and riches of all, in your heart contained,

We long to meet you there!

The promise of eternity, by you it was proclaimed,

With all humility I can bear!

-Welcome to Jerusalem!-

Enter all you nations, the Truth will be revealed

Take upon your heavenly stations, never to be deceived;

The holy city once again, in glory stands so proud

For all the people of the world, this place was lost and found;

Re-built in Heaven, for Eternity last,

as you love, and choose your path;

Heaven will open and welcome you in,

enter the city by the name of Jerusalem

Lebenslauf

Was lange haelt, wird endlich gut

so wie es auch, der Samen tut;

Er spriesst hervor, wie aus dem Ei

Die Zelle teilt sich, gleich entzwei;

Es spriesst und waechst, der kleine Spross

entwickelt sich, durch Jahre noch;

Ob Baum, ob Mann, so tritt er vor

er waechst und blueht, gedeiht zuvor;

So nimmt das Leben, seinen Lauf

Die Frucht der Jahre, bis zum Kauf;

Dann wird er alt, und gruent nicht mehr

in voller Reife, vergraut er sehr;

Er freut sich auf, das Ende nun

ein Leben lang, von seinem Tun;

So kommt der Herr, zu seinem Glueck

und bringt ihn, in sein Reich zurueck;

Der Anfang, und das Ende immerdar

So ist das Leben, wunderbar;

Von Gott erhaelt er, seinen Dank;

so lebt er ewig, im neuen Land

A Father’s Love



Love so true, a father gives

his children are, forever his.

From cradle, into adulthood

gives shelter, in the deepest flood.

His arm, embraces you so tender

for love so true, will always render.

Compassion, in his loving eyes

Forgiveness, from the heart inside.

The strictest measure, he will place

conduct his home, with all his grace.

Respect his person, dearest child

Your father always, by your side.
