I love this old song. Thanks out to Alan for reminding me of it and for the WMM advice.
I took this photo while at one of my favorite places in the world. It's a collection of lakes and ponds near the Ohio River. (There's one immediately to my left in the photo.) I love being in the middle of nowhere. Indiana offers a lot of that. I like it even more if I can get far enough out to lose cell phone reception. Than again, I have no problem turning my cell phone off when I want.
God bless you.
Lyrics:
I have found a friend in Jesus, Hes everything to me,
Hes the fairest of ten thousand to my soul;
The Lily of the Valley, in Him alone I see
All I need to cleanse and make me fully whole.
In sorrow Hes my comfort, in trouble Hes my stay;
He tells me every care on Him to roll.
Hes the Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star,
Hes the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.
He all my grief has taken, and all my sorrows borne;
In temptation Hes my strong and mighty tower;
I have all for Him forsaken, and all my idols torn
From my heart and now He keeps me by His power.
Though all the world forsake me, and Satan tempt me sore,
Through Jesus I shall safely reach the goal.
Hes the Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star,
Hes the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.
He will never, never leave me, nor yet forsake me here,
While I live by faith and do His blessèd will;
A wall of fire about me, Ive nothing now to fear,
From His manna He my hungry soul shall fill.
Then sweeping up to glory to see His blessèd face,
Where the rivers of delight shall ever roll.
Hes the Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star,
Hes the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.
Hes the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.
Pessoa afinada!
