It's A Beautiful Morning (Keeping My Eyes On The ONE)


This autumn the foliage is not so vivid as other years, but it is still so beautiful.  I'm thankful for this view every day.
 

Vinnie is visiting....
 They're pretty cute, aren't they?


 I'm thankful for the chance to pray for my great nephews while knitting for them.  This is the second hat that is finished, and I have begun casting on the third.


I have some friends with health issues that I have been praying for, and reading about Joey.

I'm heartbroken for them, but thank God for the words that Rory has written.  I'm heartbroken for the direction our government has gone, and for the 'blindness' that has come to our nation.

I am choosing everyday to walk with the ONE who knows it all and holds the future in His hands.  I will grieve losses of both lives lost and freedoms.

This is a song that Tim has been using in his time with the Lord - the lyrics help me to remember that this life is not all there is.  It can be sweet , but the real living is in the time to come.

 
Bless the Lord oh my soul
Oh my soul
Worship His Holy name
Sing like never before
Oh my soul
I'll worship Your Holy name

The sun comes up
It's a new day dawning
It's time to sing Your song again
Whatever may pass
And whatever lies before me
Let me be singing
When the evening comes

Bless the Lord oh my soul
Oh my soul
Worship His Holy name
Sing like never before
Oh my soul
I'll worship Your Holy name

You're rich in love
And You're slow to anger
Your name is great
And Your heart is kind
For all Your goodness
I will keep on singing
Ten thousand reasons
For my heart to find

Bless the Lord oh my soul
Oh my soul
Worship His Holy name
Sing like never before
Oh my soul
I'll worship Your Holy name
Bless You Lord

And on that day
When my strength is failing
The end draws near
And my time has come
Still my soul will
Sing Your praise unending
Ten thousand years
And then forevermore

Forevermore

Bless the Lord oh my soul
Oh my soul
Worship His Holy name
Sing like never before
Oh my soul
I'll worship Your Holy name

Bless the Lord oh my soul
Oh my soul
Worship His Holy name
Sing like never before
Oh my soul
I'll worship Your Holy name
I'll worship Your Holy name
Jesus I will worship Your Holy name
Sing like never before
Oh my soul
I'll worship your holy name

It IS a beautiful morning out your way. The song you've included is one of my very favorites. I sometimes sing it on the way to work in the morning.

Oh, how I love that song! It is is a beautiful one to sing indeed. Fall is certainly lovely in your neck of the woods! And your talent at making hats is pretty awesome, and what a special thing to do, to pray for the one you are making it for, love that! Have a wonderful fall afternoon :)

Information Friday

  We had a wonderful wedding weekend in Missouri! We drove, leaving Friday morning and came back on Monday! It was long, but it was worth it...
