Love is but a song we sing. Fear’s the way we die. You can make the mountains ring, or make the angels cry. Though the bird is on the wing, and you may not know why, Come on, people now, smile on your brother, Everybody get together, try to love one another right now. Some... Read More

Bless this house, O Lord we pray; make it safe by night and day. Bless these walls, so firm and stout, keeping want and trouble out. Bless the roof and chimneys tall, let thy peace lie over all; Bless this door, that it may prove ever open to joy and love. Bless these windows shining... Read More

Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high, There’s a land that I heard of, once in a lullaby. Somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue, And the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true!  Someday I’ll wish upon a star And wake up where the clouds are far behind me! Where troubles...

Most people live on a lonely island, lost in the middle of a foggy sea. Most people long for another island, One where they know they would like to be. Bali Ha’i may call you, any night, any day. In your heart you’ll hear it call you. Come away, come away. Bali Ha’i will whisper... Read More

Amazing grace! how sweet the sound, That saved a wretch like me! I once was lost, but now am found, Was blind, but now I see. ’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, And grace my fears relieved; How precious did that grace appear The hour I first believed!  The Lord hath promised good...

There was a time in my life I thought I had to do it all myself. And I didn’t know the grace of God was sufficient, And I didn’t know the love of God was at hand. But now I can say, If you are discouraged, Struggling just to make it through another day, You... Read More

He can turn the tides and calm the angry sea. He alone decides who writes a symphony. He lights evr’y star that makes the darkness bright! He keeps watch all through each long and lonely night! He still finds the time to hear a child’s first prayer. Saint or sinner calls and always finds Him... Read More
