Ansel was riding on a ridge
When the late sun hit
The small white crosses down below
Like candles all aglow
There was no time to waste
The earth spun fast and would not wait
He grabbed the tripod found a spot
Tripped the shutter made the shot
His parents took him out to see
The wild Yosemite
He saw in nature God’s own art
It struck a chord in his heart
He climbed its mountains scaled its walls
Heard its thundering waterfalls
Lost his sense of time
Found peace of mind
Catch the cliffs of granite in black and white
Shape them with shadow and light
Fill the frame with beauty and grace
From the world of stone and space
Stone and space stone and space
In the photographs you might feel
Something sacred something real
Hear an ancient mother call
Echo off cathedral walls
There is so much more to see
Than just a mountain or a tree
There is beauty in the forms
And peace within the storms
Catch the cliffs of granite in black and white
Shape them with shadow and light
Fill the frame with beauty and grace
From the world of stone and space
Stone and space stone and space
He showed the valleys and the streams
(And) fought to realize a dream
That our daughters and our sons
Would see the same bright sun
Walk in serenity
By lakes of tranquility
(And) look up from the canyon floor
And feel their spirits soar
Catch the cliffs of granite in black and white
Shape them with shadow and light
Fill the frame with beauty and grace
From the world of stone and space
Stone and space stone and space
