So you know I {heart] words, but you may not know that I {heart} singing. Recently, I have realized that singing, is one thing that refreshes my weary heart. Each Wednesday, I go to choir practice at church and sing my heart out. But you know, I sing pretty much all day long. Currently, on my iTunes list I’m loving Christy Nockels “Life Light Up” and “Waiting Here for You”. love. love. love her.
But, when my heart is the heaviest it is the hymns I return to. I learned them by heart as a girl sitting on the second pew behind the organ. Those words, are stamped on my soul so deeply that they rise up when I need them most.
Oh soul are you weary and troubled, no light in the darkness for you? Turn your eyes upon Jesus, look full in His wonderful face. And the things of this world will grow strangely dim…in the light of His glory and grace.
Yes. That one is special.
So, I was so excited when my friend Dee {Red Letter Words} came out with this beautiful art collection based on hymns:

I love to sing too! I am privileged to be able to sing in the house of prayer, but it’s my personal, intimate times with the Lord that bless me the most. And I LOVE the hymn collection. May have to use that coupon code!
Oh Barbie you would just love having those sweet words on your wall! I just know it would bless your heart!
One of my favorite hymns is “The Love of God.”. It paints such a beautiful picture of Christ’s love for us. My favorite part is:
Could we with ink the ocean fill
And were the skies of parchment made
Were every stalk on earth a quill
And every man a scribe by trade
To write the love of God above
Would drain the ocean dry
Nor could the scroll contain the whole
Though stretched from sky to sky
Oh my stars I love that one! Thank you Kristie for reminding me! I really needed that today!
