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

Sunday

 Happy Sunday



A hymn we sang in church this morning.

🎶For The Beauty of the Earth🎶
- Folliott S Pierpoint -

1.  For the beauty of the earth,
for the glory of the skies,
for the love which from our birth
over and around us lies.

Chorus

Christ, our Lord, to you we raise
this, our hymn of grateful praise.

2.  For the wonder of each hour
of the day and of the night,
hill and vale and tree and flower,
sun and moon and stars of light.

3.  For the joy of human love,
brother, sister, parent, child,
friends on earth, and friends above,
for all gentle thoughts and mild.

4.  For yourself, best gift divine,
to the world so freely given,
agent of God's grand design:
peace on earth and joy in heaven.

📖 Psalm 18:3 📖

I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised. . .

A Blessed Sunday to all.
happyone❤️🙂

That song has beautiful words.

I guess that your temps are not that far off from ours. Ours just seem all over the place and the winder never stops...just slows down or speeds up.

I know we don't see postcards much anymore, but the picture in your header, the one of the church, would be a great postcard. That is a beautiful hymn, Praise God from Whom all Blessings Flow. ♥
