I asked the Lord to bless you As I prayed for you today To guide you and protect you As you go along your way…. His love is always with you His promises are true, And when we give Him all our cares You know He will see us through So when the road you’re…

The clock of life is wound but once,  And no man has the power To tell just when the hands will stop  At late or early hour. To lose ones wealth is sad indeed.  To lose ones health is more. To lose one’s soul is such a loss  That no one can restore.              -contributed by…
