Every Thursday morning at school we had to go to church, two by two, hand in hand. aww. my favourite ever ever hymns were and are When a Knight Won His Spurs and Make Me a Channel of Your Peace
Did / do you have a favourite hymn/s?
Old enough to know better but young enough not to care
Is the Old Rugged Cross count as a hymn/church song, if so, that one.
Sin lies only in hurting other people unnecessarily. All other "sins" are invented nonsense. (Hurting yourself is not a sin - just stupid.) ~Robert A. Heinlein
I liked "Give Me Oil In My Lamp", "this little light of mine" but my favourite is
If I were a butterfly,
I'd thank you, Lord, for giving me wings;
And if I were a robin in a tree,
I'd thank you Lord, that I could sing;
And if I were a fish in the sea,
I'd wiggle my tail and I'd giggle with glee;
But I just Thank You Father, for making me - ME!
'Cause you gave me a heart and
You gave me a smile
You gave me Jesus, and
You made me His Child
And I just Thank You, Father
For making me - ME!
I remember every now and then we would sing Onward Christian Soldiers but I don't know why we did as every time we did all the boys would start to stamp their feet as in marching onward. They would do this despite the fact that every time we sang the headmistress would pre-warn us that anyone who stamped their feet would be dragged out and punished in some way. It was only years later that I thought why the bloody hell did they tell us to sing it when they knew what would happen, and did, every. single. time.
It takes two to lie. One to lie and one to listen. ~ Homer Simpson
I remember Onward Christian Soldiers!! And one where we used to whisper one line in it, think it went something like "and hushed the wind......"
Oh and one about "I have a brother in *somewhere* a sister in *somewhere* " and so on, I can't remember the somewheres but remember singing it with real gusto!!!
Happy simple memories!!
Attitude is a choice. You only get one dance in this life, and you get to pick the music
Of the"old" hyms I love Faith of our Fathers, in the "modern" ones i like Shine Jesus Shine, Make me a channel of your peace and One more step along the world I go
my glass is half full - or is it half empty I can't remember - too many glasses to be clear!!!
Oh and one about "I have a brother in *somewhere* a sister in *somewhere* " and so on, I can't remember the somewheres but remember singing it with real gusto!!!
Happy simple memories!!

If I had a hammer, I'd hammer in the morning, I'd hammer in the evening, All over this land, I'd hammer out danger, I'd hammer out a warning, I'd hammer out love between, My brothers and my sisters, All over this land.
If I had a bell, I'd ring it in the morning, I'd ring it in the evening, All over this land, I'd ring out danger, I'd ring out a warning, I'd ring out love between, My brothers and my sisters, All over this land.
If I had a song I'd sing it in the morning........................................... ...........
only when you sang 'all' it had four syllables, like aw, aw, aw, awll over this land.
