January 13, 2016 Carol, I am so sorry to hear about Jimmy. I miss you and Jimmy both. My thoughts are with you. ~ Cindy Hawkins   January 14, 2016     I MISS YOU MT BUBBA ~ Carol Mann, Toano, Virginia     January 15, 2016     Sharon and Carol, I'm so sorry about Jim. He meant the world to Tommy and me. There are so many reminders of him here at "The Big House" as he always called our home. I walk out the back door and still see him sitting there and driving his big red truck every day. The last thing he asked me was how is the truck when I talked to him at Christmas. I will really miss him. If you need me you know that I'm here because I know what you are going thru at this time. May all the Angels and Saints be with you. ~ Jenny Purdie   January 15, 2016 R ~     January 15, 2016   T ~     January 15, 2016   R ~     January 15, 2016   T ~     January 15, 2016   M ~     January 15, 2016   T ~   January 15, 2016   I -

This Is My Father's World

Words by Maltbie D. Babcock, 1901
Traditional English Melody (Terra Beata), arranged by Franklin L. Sheppard, 1915
 

This is my Father’s world, and to my listening ears
All nature sings, and round me rings the music of the spheres.
This is my Father’s world: I rest me in the thought
Of rocks and trees, of skies and seas;
His hand the wonders wrought.

This is my Father’s world, the birds their carols raise,
The morning light, the lily white, declare their Maker’s praise.
This is my Father’s world: He shines in all that’s fair;
In the rustling grass I hear Him pass;
He speaks to me everywhere.

This is my Father’s world. O let me ne’er forget
That though the wrong seems oft so strong, God is the ruler yet.
This is my Father’s world: the battle is not done:
Jesus Who died shall be satisfied,
And earth and Heav’n be one.

This is my Father’s world, dreaming, I see His face.
I ope my eyes, and in glad surprise cry, “The Lord is in this place.”
This is my Father’s world, from the shining courts above,
The Beloved One, His Only Son,
Came—a pledge of deathless love.

This is my Father’s world, should my heart be ever sad?
The lord is King—let the heavens ring. God reigns—let the earth be glad.
This is my Father’s world. Now closer to Heaven bound,
For dear to God is the earth Christ trod.
No place but is holy ground.

This is my Father’s world. I walk a desert lone.
In a bush ablaze to my wondering gaze God makes His glory known.
This is my Father’s world, a wanderer I may roam
Whate’er my lot, it matters not,
My heart is still at home.
