Walking is the perfect way of moving if you want to see into the life of things. It is the one way of freedom. If you go to a place on anything but your own feet you are taken there too fast, and miss a thousand delicate joys that were waiting for you by the wayside. Elizabeth von Arnim

God Please Bless America

God, please bless America
A hymn by Byron Foxx and Glenn Christianson 2011

God, please bless America.
Shield us by Thy grace.
May we turn to Thee in humility
as we seek thy face.
God, please bless America.
Grant Thy favor grand.
O, forgive our sin and cleanse with-in.
Lord please heal our land.

God, please bless America.
Help us in this hour.
We believe the Word of the Living Lord.
Save us by Thy Pow'r .
God, please bless America.
Show to us Thy care.
We surrender all to Thy great call.
This our fervent prayer. 

God, please bless America.
Lead us in Your way.
Ever leaning near for Thy voice to hear,
As we seek and pray.
God, please bless America.
For Thy glory bright.
We will give you praise through all our days,
God of truth and right.

Psalm 33:12 
Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord.

A blessed Sunday to you my friends.
Jesus loves you. : )
