We met up with our son and daughter about 45 mins drive away. That meant going over the top of the South Downs, which meant seeing the beautiful view across the valley towards Amberley. Sadly I don't have any photographs...
But I do have a sketch of a very similar view, from Ditchingly Beacon as opposed to Bury Hill (Summer 2021)
Do you know this version of the popular hymn 'All things bright and beautiful' composed by John Rutter?
Lovely!

DeleteI love that version of All Things Bright and Beautiful, I first heard it in a church in Cambridge and it filled my heart with joy..
ReplyDeleteI sang it for a singing exam (when I was 40!) and loved it too.
DeleteI like your sketch - it's very uplifting.
ReplyDeleteI like John Rutter's music, too, and his setting of 'All things bright and beautiful' gives fresh meaning to a hymn that can sometimes seem hackneyed in the 'usual' form. There's another setting I used to sing, but I can't remember who it's by.
The view 'from the top' is always energising!
DeleteThank you for sharing that version of "All things..." I've scheduled it on our church Facebook page for the Saturday after next. I post a "Song for Saturday" as part of our daily FB post sharing all kinds of music. Mostly to my taste, of course, as I'm the administrator! :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you enjoyed the hymn setting, hope your church does too 😊
