                                               PSALM 67:1,3,4,6,7                    

                                               God be merciful to us
                                                     and bless us
                                               And cause thy face
                                               to shine upon us Selah
                                                                      
                                             Let the people praise thee 
                                             O God Let all the people 
                                                       praise thee
                                             Let all the nations be glad
                                                and sing for joy
                                             For thou shalt judge the people
                                                with righteousness
                                                  and govern the nations
                                                     upon the earth Selah
                                                         Then shall the earth
                                                     yield her increase
                                                  And God, even our own God
                                               shall bless us 
                                                  God shall bless us 
                                                  and all the earth
                                                  shall fear him

                                     ARE YOU RUNNING WITH US, JESUS

                                                           
                                           Are you running with us, Jesus
                                           Do you really care
                                           Are you close at hand, O Lord
                                           Or are you standing way out there

                                           Are we in your inner circle
                                           Or have we been left out
                                           Are we drawing closer, Lord
                                           Please dispel our minds of doubt

                                           Cast down all our foes, dear Jesus
                                           To all our sins, give rout
                                           Let us cast our lots with thee
                                           And with the angels shout
                               
                                           The Lord, he is our God
                                           The Lord, he is our God 
                                           Forever and forever
                                           Amen

FATHER'S DAY (1978)

                                                                 FATHER'S DAY (1978)
                                           
                                           There's one question we'd like to ask
                                           By an eloquent or simple word
                                           In all this human race, who
                                           Could ever take the place
                                           Of Father
                                           Who could equal his style or grace
                                           His twinkling eyes or his smiling face
                                           Who could ever match a love so rare
                                           Or who, for his children, could care
                                           Like Father.
                                           There's a fellow we all know
                                           Who did his best to help us grow
                                           Toiled, sweated and shed a tear
                                           Gave us courage and calmed our fear
                                           Twas Father.
                                           Through our laughter and our tears
                                           He's been our friend these many years
                                           So we exclaim with zeal and zest
                                           There is one whom we love best
                                           Our Father.

                                                                PSALM 66:1,2,4,8,10,18,20

                                            Make a joyful noise
                                          unto God all ye lands
                                       Sing forth the honor
                                      of his name
                                      Make his praise glorious


                                      All the earth shall worship thee
                                             and shall sing unto thee
                                      They shall sing to thy name, Selah
 
                                             O bless our God ye people
                                             and make the voice of his praise
                                                                          to be heard
                                       For thou O God hast proven us
                                       Thou hast tried us, as silver is tried


                                       If I regard iniquity in my heart,
                                       the Lord will not hear me
                                       
                                       Blessed be God, which hath 
                                       not turned away my prayer, 
                                       nor his mercy from me

WHAT PRICE SOLVENCY? (1978)

6/18/2015

                                                 WHAT PRICE SOLVENCY? 
                                    

                                                        Last Month, we were $3.84 overdrawn at our
                                    local bank.


                                    Fortunately, we were able to to borrow $1.63
                                    from Tammy's jewelry box, $.86 from Billy's top
                                    drawer, $.75 from Matt's piggy bank, $.57 from
                                    some of Donna's heretofore undisclosed hidden
                                    funds and $.03 which Heather held clutchingly
                                    in her little hand.
 
                                    As we took Heather's three pennies, a silent
                                    voice within us raised the question, "What price
                                    solvency?"

                                    However, we suspect our lenders will not
                                    let us easily forget that they came to our rescue
                                    in our financial time of need.

                                    In fact, we suspect the real financial winners
                                    in this whole sordid affair will be the proprietors
                                    of our kids' favorite ice-cream-parlor.

PSALM 65:1,2,11,12,13

                                        Praise waiteth for thee,
                                             O God in Sion
                                               and unto thee
                                                 shall the vow
                                                   be preformed
                                        O thou that hearest prayer
                                        unto thee shall all flesh come

                                        Thou crownest the year
                                            with thy goodness
                                        and thy paths drop fatness
                                        They drop upon the pastures
                                            of the wilderness
                                               and the little hills 
                                                  rejoice on every side
                                        
                                             The pastures are clothed with flocks
                                          The valleys are also covered with corn
                                                      They shout with joy
                                                      They also sing

                                             I AM EVERYMAN         

                                        When someone is glad
                                             then I am glad
                                        When someone is sad
                                             then I am sad
                                        When someone is injured
                                             then I am injured
                                        When someone is in pain
                                             then I am in pain
                                        When someone is terrorized
                                             then I am terrorized
                                        When someone is victimized
                                             then I am victimized
                                        I cannot but empathize,
                                        For like you, I am everyman

IN THE GARDEN

                                                 IN THE GARDEN

                                       It's not too late. We still have time.
                                       This is still the planting season.

                                        Now is the time to plant row after
                                        row of love, kindness, hope, trust,
                                        forgiveness, and righteousness.

                                        And we may be sure that our Heavenly
                                        Father will nurture and tender our plantings
                                        and bring forth a beautiful increase.

                                        Every seed planted for the Lord always yields
                                        much more fruit than originally indicated by 
                                        the size or number of our seeds.

                                        Come now, while there is time, let us go,
                                        and meet Him... in the garden.

                                                                           PSALM 64:1,9,10

                                        Hear my voice, O God
                                           in my prayer
                                        Preserve my life
                                           from fear of the enemy

                                        And all men shall fear
                                           and shall declare 
                                             the work of God
                                        For they shall wisely consider
                                           of his doing

                                                The righteous
                                              shall be glad
                                            in the Lord
                                          and shall trust
                                        in him
                                        and all the upright
                                        in heart shall glory
