[Verse 1: Charley Pride]
Today as I was walking in the fields just down the way
I sat down on a fallen log to pass the time away
And as I looked around me the more that I did look
The more I realized that I was viewing God's coloring book

[Verse 2: Dolly Parton]
I saw a golden ray of sunlight a silver drop of dew
A soft white floating cloud sailing across the sky of blue
A yellow dandelion, a pretty evergreen
And some red and orange flowers growing wild along the stream

[Chorus: Charley Pride & Dolly Parton]
And the more I look around me, the more that I do look
The more I realize that I was viewing God's coloring book

[Verse 3: Charley Pride, Charley Pride & Dolly Parton]
The grayness in an old man's hair, the pink in baby's cheeks
The blackness in a stormy sky, the brown in fallen leaves
And the multicolored rainbow stretched across the sky
And the purple haze at sunset just before the night

[Chorus: Charley Pride & Dolly Parton]
And the more I look around me, the more that I do look
The more I realize that I am viewing God's coloring book
[Verse 4: Charley Pride, Charley Pride & Dolly Parton]
Then I turn my face toward the sky and say a silent prayer
Though God doesn't speak to me, I see Him everywhere
He is all around me, He's everywhere I look
And each new day is but a new page in God's coloring book
Yes, each new day is but a new page in God's coloring book
