Amazing Grace How Intel The Sound!
A choir of musical singing birds, Greeted me at the first morning light of daybreak; Lifting up my heavy spirit and troubled soul, Promising me new power and a fresh, clean slate. Neither the early morning war news on TV Nor the loudest song on country/rock radio; Could drown out this choir of...

The Risen Christ Is...
THE YOUNG MAN WALKING BY THE SEA A young man one day was walking by the sea, To those around Him, He said, Become fishers of men and follow me. Many miracles did this young man in the towns by the sea, To those who saw these miracles, He said, Become fishers of men and follow me. Standing in a boat,...

AN 8X10 PORTRAIT OF A SOUL THAT CARES
As I fold my weary hands, And bow upon my aching knees. I offer my most fervent prayer, On behalf of those suffering in great need. The clarion call for folded hands, Comes from the wounded hearts that bleed. My praying hands are lifted up toward heaven, On behalf of those suffering in great need....

FOR THOSE WHO DIED THIS WEEK IN IRAQ
