Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah! Zip-A-Dee-A!

"There's a bright golden haze on the meadow,
The corn is as high as an elephant's eye,
An' it looks like its climbin' clear up to the sky.

Oh what a beautiful morning,
Oh what a beautiful day,
I've got a wonderful feeling,
Everything's going my way."
"Walking in sunlight all of my journey
Over the mountains, through the deep vale
Jesus has said, "I'll never forsake thee"
Promise divine that never can fail

Heavenly sunlight, heavenly sunlight
Flooding my soul with glory divine
Hallelujah, I am rejoicing
Singing His praises, Jesus is mine"
 "Count your blessings,
Name them one by one
Count your blessings,
See what God has done
Count your blessings,
Name them one by one
Count your many blessings,
See what God has done."

Sometimes it feels like this world is spinning faster
Than it did in the old days
So naturally we have more natural disasters
From the strain of a fast pace

Sunday was the day of rest
Now its one more day for progress
And we can't slow down
Cause more is best
It's all an endless process

Well I miss Mayberry
Sitting on the porch drinking ice cold Cherry --- Coke
Where everything is black & white
Picking on a Six String
Where people pass by and you call them by their first name
Watching the clouds roll by
bye bye

Out my window

Today I drove Ben and Will to the Duley's. On the way there the sun was setting and the yellow rays streaked in my car windows. We were listening to Kirsten Getty and I just truly felt the presence of the Lord. It was such a sweet time to worship Him. This was the song I dwelt upon:
"Jesus, Draw me ever nearer
as I labor through the storm
You have called me to this passage
and I'll follow, though i'm worn

May this journey bring the blessing
May i rise on wings of faith
and at the end of my hearts testing
with your likeness let me wake

Jesus, guide me through the tempest
keep my spirit stayed and sure
when the midnight meets the morning
let me love you even more

May this journey bring the blessing
May i rise on wings of faith
and at the end of my hearts testing
with your likeness let me wake

Let the treasures of the triumph
form within me as i go
and at the end of this long passage
let me leave them at your throne

May this journey bring the blessing
may i rise on wings of faith
and at the end of my hearts testing
with your likeness let me wake"
