my wife june at the sea of galilee

Singer:johnny cash

this is the 23rd of april no may

23rd of may and john and i are

sitting on the veranda of a hotel that is in tiberias israel

it is right on the sea of galilee

we can see to our left the place where they held the sermon on the mount

and across the lake is now the land of israel

but up until eleven months ago was held by syria

on down to the right further down the jordan river joins the sea if galilee

and it's a beautiful day with the birds

you can hear the motor boats on the lake only one that i can see

and then a big pleasure boat that is coming across the other side

from the sea of galilee

the lake at this point i'd say is about eight miles wide and it's fourteen miles long

hmm that's right june israel is really again in its glory

this is a beautiful place

it's in much greater glory that she was in the days of king herod

i'm proud to say for the jews today king herod gained the throne like a fox

ruled like a lion and died like a dog
