I very often will privately sing, a verse or two and then the chorous that says,

"Oh come unto me
and I will give you rest
take my yoke upon you
hear me and be blessed
for I am meek and lowly
come, trust my might
come my yoke is easy
and my burden light."

Bro. Strange,

In later years with declining health, my late father would get

to thinking about the goodness and love of God and would

start singing songs like, "I Wouldn't Take Nothing For My Journey

Now" and "I Am Blessed" and you could tell it brought his spirit

up to a new level! I, now find myself singing those old songs, the

words just speak to me. They are more than mere words. Jesus

told His disciples, "The words I speak unto you, they are spirit

and they are life". Remember the old song, "Wonderful Words

Of Life". The old songs contain words that have been lived,

experienced, and found out that they are true words. Thank

God for words of encouragement whether they be in song, or

just spoken by a saint of God at a time when they are SO

desperately needed. Jesus knows just what we need and when.

Blessings,
