This Is My Father’s World

I often to sing this hymn when I am on my morning walks. I love especially the lines, “In the rustling grass I hear Him pass; He speaks to me everywhere.”  They remind me that when God seems silent in my life it is not from His lack of speaking, rather from my lack of hearing. I pray this acoustic arrangement will be a blessing to you as you listen.

 

 

Wings

He lays the beams of his chambers  on the waters; he makes the clouds his chariot;  he rides on the wings of the wind.  Psalm 104:3 ESV

P1040683

Run, John, run, the law commands, but gives us neither feet nor hands. Far better news the gospel brings: It bids us fly and gives us wings.      John Bunyan

Seven Loaves

The 7 Loaves of the Bread of Life

He took the seven loaves and the fish and having given thanks He broke them and gave them to the disciples and the disciples gave them to the crowds. Matthew 15:36 ESV

The Monday loaf was when angels sang

And shepherds knelt and the Heavens rang

On Tuesday Mary dedicated her son

At the temple then trusted His will to be done

At the Jordan On Wednesday Jesus was baptized

And the dove descended onto the bread of life

Thursday’s loaf was when He broke the bread

And He blessed the cup and He bowed His head

On Friday His body was given for us

And His blood poured down that old rugged cross

Saturday’s silence was a bread of sorrows

As He lay in the tomb waiting for tomorrow

Then on Sunday’s rising came the Living Bread

For all who believe Jesus rose from the dead!
