‘What a Friend We Have in Jesus’

I can’t keep my eyes dry when I listen to this hymn–What a Friend We Have in Jesus, sung here by Doc Watson. He can’t keep his eyes dry, either.

‘What a Friend We Have in Jesus’

It’s been a while since I posted this: What a Friend We Have in Jesus, sung by Doc Watson. This hymn used to make me cry in Sunday school. It still works on me today.

I post this hymn even though it brings me to tears, more often than not.

What a Friend We Have in Jesus: sung by Alan Jackson. It used to break me down in Sunday school. It can still do that.

I know, I know–I post this pretty often. But I feel a need for it today (hip is killing me, troubled sleep): What a Friend We Have in Jesus, sung by Doc Watson.

Listen closely. This is a hymn for our hearts.

Before I do anything else–and there’s a lot I have to do today, none of it enjoyable–let me post this Doc Watson classic: What a Friend We Have in Jesus.

How many times has Doc sung this hymn? And it still brings him perilously close to tears.

Bonus Hymn, ‘What a Friend We Have in Jesus’

We have a hymn request from Erlene: What a Friend We Have in Jesus, sung by Alan Jackson.

The colonoscopy looms, with a prep period that strikes me as fiendish, and I find it quite distracting. Still managed another three pages of my book today: Ozias, Prince Enthroned. I’ve never before encountered so many obstacles in writing a book. All I pray is that it’ll be over and done with and our household can return to normalcy. Normalcy is good!

Meanwhile, our Facebook page keeps showing us pictures of mostly naked women with oversized knockers. The picture disappears after a few seconds. I didn’t ask for this and don’t know where it came from. Have any of you had the same experience? I’ve also had unrequested changes imposed on my home page format. What’s WordPress up to?

‘What a Friend We Have in Jesus’ (Doc Watson)

I know I’ve posted this video more than a few times; but it has a message that we need to hear. I do, at least.

Doc Watson sings What a Friend We Have in Jesus–and he sings it like he means it.

‘What a Friend We Have in Jesus’

We need God’s grace; and Our Lord Jesus Christ  is God’s grace in His person.

Yesterday was horrendous. We’re feeling sort of drained. Take it to God in prayer! Our Lord will share our burdens.

Lots of prayer today.

By Request, ‘What a Friend We Have in Jesus’

This is one of my favorite hymn clips, and I’m so glad Erlene has asked me to post it: What a Friend We Have in Jesus, sung like he means it by Doc Watson. It used to bring me to tears, when we sang it in Sunday school.

By Request, ‘What a Friend We Have in Jesus’

Erlene didn’t have to ask very hard to get this–What a Friend We Have in Jesus, sung by Doc Watson: certainly one of my favorite videos. This hymn stirred my soul when I was ten years old in Sunday school. It still does.
