Inspiration for the week-

 

Hymn

- Faith of Our Mothers Tune St. Catherine 8.8.8.8.8.8.

  Faith of our mothers, living still, In cradle song and bedtime prayer;

  In nursery lore and fireside love, Thy presence still pervades the air:

  Faith of our mothers, living faith, We will be true to thee till death.

  Faith of our mothers, loving faith, Fount of our childhood's trust and grace,

  Oh, may thy consecration prove Source of a finer, nobler race:

  Faith of our mothers, loving faith, We will be true to thee till death.

  Faith of our mothers, guiding faith, For youthful longing, youthful doubt, How

  blurred our vision, blind our way Thy providential care without:

  Faith of our mothers, guiding faith, We will be true to thee till death.

  Faith of our mothers, Christian faith In truth beyond our stumbling creeds,

  Lead us in service and save the Church, And breathe thy spirit thro' our

  deeds;

  Faith of our mothers, Christian Faith, We will be true to thee till death.

A. B. Patton

 

 

See you in church on Sunday

God bless 

Pastor Jim
