Requested by “Someone” (I think it’s Elder Mike, but WordPress does like to confuse us), we have the students at Fountainview Academy singing The Lily of the Valley.
We are still wiped out from yesterday–high heat, and our living quarters all sealed up, all day long. And we’ve got two doctors’ appointments today. *Sigh*
Patty got up very early today, went outside to greet the day… and was greeted in her turn by a great big woodchuck. I wonder where his burrow is.
I don’t know, but we seem to be getting visits from all sorts of wildlife lately, including a bear on the sidewalk.
Be attentive–the Lord may be speaking to us.
This Irish hymn was first sung over a thousand years ago–and it still moves us, doesn’t it? Be Thou My Vision, here performed by a couple of students at Fountainview Academy.
I can’t seem to keep a dry eye.
Patty wanted to hear this hymn–well, why not? It’s another one that can make your eyes fill up. Fairest Lord Jesus. We sang it in Sunday school.
Sung here by students from Fountainview Academy. Background sets by God the Father.
I never heard this hymn till just now: O Love That Will Not Let Me Go, sung by students at Fountainview Academy. Do you like it?
We haven’t had this one for a while–Onward, Christian Soldiers performed by students at Fountainview Academy.
I’m going to try to rest today.
Phoebe asked for this one: Do You Know My Jesus?, sung outdoors by four students at Fountainview Academy.
(Sorry I’m late! This computer FORGOT a lot of things while I was stuck in the hospital for six weeks. It took Patty some time this morning to reinstate our e-mail.)
So my day started around 4 a.m. with another trip to the emergency room. It turned out they didn’t have to do much, but I didn’t know that when I asked my wife to call an ambulance.
Today’s hymn just popped into my head: Shall We Gather at the River?, sung by students at Fountainview Academy.
I wish we had some of those little waterfalls here.
Oh, this is one of my Sunday school favorites! Thank you, Erlene, for requesting it: Draw Me Nearer, by Fanny Crosby. Sung by students from Fountainview Academy. I really ought to post this hymn more often. How it sweetens the morning!
Fanny Crosby wrote eight or nine thousand hymns. This is one of them:
He Hideth My Soul, sung by the students from Fountainview Academy during their trip to Hawaii.
Background sets by God the Father.
