Our New Favorite Hymn

This is our (the girls and my) new favorite hymn. From the Songs & Hymns of Revival hymnal #216. Listening to the 3 year olds sing, is so wonderful. You can just see and hear God's love in their singing. It's such a blessing to hearing all the girls sing as they do their chores and go about their daily business. I love being their Mama.

Dwelling in Buelah Land

Words and Music by C. Austin Miles

Isaiah 62:4"... but thou shalt be called Hephzibah, and thy land Beulah:for the LORD delighteth in thee, and thy land shall be married"

Far away the noise of strife upon my ear is falling.Then I know the sins of earth beset on every hand.Doubt and fear and things of earth in vain to me are calling.None of these shall move me from Beulah Land.

Chorus

I'm living on the mountain, underneath a cloudless sky. (Praise God!)I'm drinking at the fountain that never shall run dry.O yes! I'm feasting on the manna from a bountiful supply,For I am dwelling in Beulah Land.

Far below the storm of doubt upon the world is beating.Sons of men in battle long the enemy withstand.Safe am I within the castle of God's Word retreating.Nothing then can reach me - 'tis Beulah Land.

Chorus

I'm living on the mountain, underneath a cloudless sky. (Praise God!) I'm drinking at the fountain that never shall run dry.O yes! I'm feasting on the manna from a bountiful supply,For I am dwelling in Beulah Land.

Let the stormy breezes blow, their cry cannot alarm me;I am safely sheltered here, protected by God's hand.Here the sun is always shining, here there's naught can harm me.I am safe forever in Beulah Land.

Chorus

I'm living on the mountain, underneath a cloudless sky. (Praise God!)I'm drinking at the fountain that never shall run dry.O yes! I'm feasting on the manna from a bountiful supply,For I am dwelling in Beulah Land.

Viewing here the works of God, I sink in contemplation.Hearing now His blessed voice, I see the way He planned.Dwelling in the Spirit here I learn of full salvation.Gladly I will tarry in Beulah Land.

Chorus

I'm living on the mountain, underneath a cloudless sky. (Praise God!)I'm drinking at the fountain that never shall run dry.O yes! I'm feasting on the manna from a bountiful supply,For I am dwelling in Beulah Land.

Kiley & August's Decision to be Baptized

Kiley and August have both made the decision to be scripturally baptized. Tomorrow night, along with another boy in the church they will make this public statement to live their life for the Lord. I am so very proud of them. They are very excited.

I will post pictures after tomorrow.


What does it mean to be scripturally baptized?

Adorable Inexpensive Christmas Gifts

I recently came across a mama blog where she prints paper dolls for her children to play with. I was so excited about this and is a wonderful cheap gift. I had Adam buy some card paper to print the dolls and clothes on. I'm making a few kits to give as gifts to some little girls we know. I'm also making some for my girls for cute stocking stuffers.

How cute will that be with a few pages of dolls in a cute envelope with a pair of scissors attached? Oh I love crafting.

Here are some links to them.
