Sunday Blessing



I then shall live as one who's been forgiven
I'll walk with joy to know my debts are paid
I know my name is clear before my Father
I am His child and I am not afraid
So greatly pardoned, I'll forgive my brother
The law of love I gladly will obey

I then shall live as one who's learned compassion
I've been so loved I'll risk loving, too
I know how fear builds walls instead of bridges
I'll dare to see another's point of view
And when relationships demand commitment
Then I'll be there to care and follow through

Your kingdom come around and through and in me
Your power and glory let them shine through me
Your Hallowed name, oh may I bear with honor
And may Your living Kingdom come in me
The Bread of Life, O' may I share with honor
And may You feed a hungry world through me

I Then Shall Live
lyrics by Gloria Gaither

I know this isn't an "old" hymn, but it is a song that has meant a lot to me. I guess it is sort of my creed. I hope you enjoy the lyrics. (The picture is from my rose bush. My second bloom this season! It is now on my kitchen window sill for me to enjoy.) :) I hope everyone's week is off to a good start!

Blessings!


This is a very enjoyable version of the song. So beautifully done by the Gaither Vocal Band and Signature Sound.
