"Standing on the promises".

Thanks for singing that, Pegita. In the 50's when I was a little kid growing up in the little Baptist church in a little town, that was one of our standards. We sang it a lot on Wednesday nights. I remember not only singing every word, but literally feeling how each word was true. I wish those great old hymns weren't fading away. Thanks for reminding us how joyous living with Jesus feels.

oh I remember that one too Wampus. We certainly have got away from the traditional Hymns. Very few churches use them now. And for the ones that do, they are filled with old people, my age!!. I miss them, and yes I relate to "feeling" every single word!!

My Dad used to sing "On the Jericho Road" When he died I had that put on his headstone.
As much as I miss him, I'm glad he's not seeing what's happening in our country today.
