How beautiful the mountains
And the feet of him who brings
The good news of peace.
With glad tidings he sings.
He proclaims the salvation
Of all men who will believe,
Who make known to all,
"God reigns and gives reprieve."
Men will lift up their voices.
Thy will sing with joyful cries.
When the Lord returns
They will see and be wise.
Burst into songs together
Places in heaven and earth,
For the Lord comforts,
Redeems, and gives new birth.
He will bare His holy arm
In the sight of all nations.
All the earth shall see
God's plan of salvation.
(Based on Isaiah 52:7-10)
Santorini is one of the Cyclades islands in the Aegean Sea. It was destroyed by a volcanic eruption in the 16th century BC, which permanently shaped its rugged landscape. We visited the white, cube-shaped houses and enchanting cafes and shops in the town of Fira that is perched on top of the island. While in a cafe, we took pictures of the natural beauty that surrounded us and enjoyed the tremendous view.
