...I once dreamed, I was in heaven..the sky was a perfect blue, the trees, grass was a perfect green...the mountains were so perfect in detail and color..man, I can't wait to go there...but I'm "still stuck here on the ground.." (Early Morning Rain, Gordon Lightfoot)...trying to figure out my purpose, in life, here on earth..
Heavenly Father ,in the midst of all the hurry in another busy day , keep my eyes open to the beauty of your creation, the happy sounds of children playing, the fresh clean scent of meadows after raining, the welcome sight of a friendly smile. Don't let me get so caught up with myself and my demanding schedule that I lose the strength I always gain from my quiet moment with you. Help me today to be at peace O Lord, with myself, my world and most specially you.
@RainbowLoves0204 that's all very fine, but maybe the non Christians are tired of hearing about it. And tired of hearing about all the Muslums............... and everything else that everyone cramms down your throat. Oh and don't let me forget to mention that we are ALL EARTHLINGS ON THIS PLANET !! Peace!! Ever heard of THAT !!!!!!
@Aldebaron9 - Are you a Christian? If you are not, why are you coming to this page and listening to this song and 'criticizing' me? I have my right. And not EVERYONE and EVERYTHING else cramms down my throat. And yes, I know we are earthlings on this planet Earth. And I heard of peace before. Christian loves God. I see nothing wrong with that.
watch this YouTube ( Where are YOU Going to after death?! ) (See why corruption Aslam Yusuf Estes ) (See why Aslam Abdul Raheem assigned ) (Jesus Christ in Islam) (why she became muslim) (Christian Professor converts to Islam ) (European Scientist converts to Islam) (A Compilation of Converts to Islam ) (Anatomy : Scientist converted to islam after reading Quran) (compilation of converts to islam New Muslims from different places)
I have always admired the humility & modesty of the Mennonites for the way in which they live their faith day by day. While pride is not a virtue for man, the Lord must surely be proud of these disciples of His who try steadfastly to live the Word while others merely talk the talk.
I love this song but unfortualntly i was introduced to this song at my grandmothers funeral. So every time i listen to it, it makes me cry i miss her so very much:'(
This Swedish hymn is often played at funerals here in Sweden, also so at my mother's and father's funeral. Tears fell, but this hymn gives confidence in my heart that we shall reunite and never to be parted again.
Some Mennonites from Indianna that were feeding folks after Hurricane Rita in Vidor, Texas gave me a CD with this one on it. It is a gift of rare value. They have remained in my thoughts and prayers these last few years. Their food was much appreciated and gratefully accepted. God Bless them.
I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. I play the piano and organ. Today (July 25), I played this as the Hymn of the Day. It is #790 in Evangelical Lutheran Worship.
Absolutely beautiful! I was raised a Mennonite, and this lovely a capella version is especially meaningful to me. May you be greatly blessed for posting it.
Truly, one day with God, blessed by His love and grace is better than a 1000 days before I knew Him. Lord help me always to walk humbly, love mercy, and do justly.
I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. I play the piano and organ. Today (Feb. 28), I played this as the opening hymn. However, the words in Evangelical Lutheran Worship are different. It is #790.
When/if Jesus returns I am going to crucify him, AGAIN! HAHAHA.
But this time I will crucify him backwards and let a goat rape him while forcing him to say the Lord's Prayer backwards and bequeath his soul to Lucifer for eternity. Then I will transfuse all his blood into rabid hyenas, so you idiots will be worshiping wild dogs for the next couple of millenia.
No reason to complain about the choir, they sings really good. Beautiful scenery by the way. However, the feeling can never be the same with this English translation as with the original lyrics in Swedish. God bless you forever and ever, Lina Sandell Berg.
Thank you Sesamonte. I've already sent one of your postings to our ladies quartet. I'm certain the other three will say yes. I've been looking for something special. I love your postings. God bless you.
Born Karolina Wilhelmina Sandell in a rectory at Fröderyd, Småland, Sweden.
At the age of 26, she went with her father Jonas Sandell, a Lutheran pastor of the Lutheran church in Fröderyd on a boat trip across Lake Vättern to Göteborg, during which he fell overboard and drowned before her eyes.
The tragedy affected Lina, inspiring her to write hymns.
What a testimony to God's plan for us ... to live day by day for and with Him to gain His best in all life experiences ... Thank You Lord for giving us precious music with such a connect to You!!
I love this song
