U.S. Air Force Band - 2017 Holiday Flash Mob

I love watching the flash mob videos each year and always think how awesome it would be to witness one in person, especially a military band.

Go USAF!!!

~Enjoy~

Sing to him, sing praises to him!

I need thee every hour,
most gracious Lord;
no tender voice like thine
can peace afford.

 

Refrain:
I need thee, O I need thee,
every hour I need thee.
O bless me now, my Savior;
I come to thee.

 I need thee every hour;
stay thou near by;
temptations lose their power
when thou art nigh. [Refrain]

 I need thee every hour,
in joy or pain;
come quickly and abide,
or life is vain. [Refrain]

 I need thee every hour;
teach me thy will;
and thy rich promises
in me fulfill. [Refrain]

 I need thee every hour,
Most Holy One;
O make me thine indeed,
thou Blessed Son! [Refrain]

(I Need Thee Every Hour ~ words: Annie S Hawks, 1872)

Gloria Patri

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost;

as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen, amen. 

(anonymous, 2nd Century)

1 Chronicles 16:8-11 (ESV)

Oh give thanks to the Lord; call upon his name;
    make known his deeds among the peoples! 

 Sing to him, sing praises to him;
    tell of all his wondrous works! Glory in his holy name;
    let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice! Seek the Lord and his strength;
    seek his presence continually!

 ~Grace & Peace~

Hot & Cold, just not in that order...and the Doxology

This morning we woke to freezing rain and ice accumulation.

Since I'm not a cold weather fan, I took the photo from inside

where it was toasty warm. Oh, and also through the window screen, 

hence the blurred effect :)

Tonight, my husband made me this delicious cup of

White Chocolate Raspberry Hot Cocoa with Whipped Topping & Chocolate Drizzle.

Yes, I am loved.

♥

I'm going to be busy the next few days with my family 

so I'll wish y'all a Happy Thanksgiving and the words to the Doxology!

♥

Praise God, from Whom all blessings flow;
Praise Him, all creatures here below;
Praise Him above, ye heavenly host;
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

Review & Giveaway ~ Music CD: A Place to Belong by Lisa Troyer

I wasn't sure what to expect when I requested this cd but I can say that while it turned out to not be my usual preference for music, it is a soothing sounding album with peaceful undertones and an encouraging message of hope. It makes for a nice quiet time with a soothing cup of tea :)
