"Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice." (Phil. 4:4)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sing a little song of trust,
O my heart!
Sing it just because you must,
As leaves start;
As flowers push their way through dust;
Sing, my heart, because you must.
Wait not for an eager throng - -
Bird on bird;
‘Tis the solitary song
That is heard.
Every voice at dawn will start,
Be a nightingale, my heart!
Sing across the winter snow,
Pierce the cloud;
Sing when mists are dropping low - -
Clear and loud;
But sing sweetest in the dark;
He who slumbers not will hark.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“An’ when He hears yo’ sing, He bends down wid a smile on His kin’ face an’ listens mighty keerful, an’ He says, ‘Sing on, chile, I hears, an’ I’s comin’ down to deliber yo’: I’ll tote dat load fer yo’; jest lean hawd on Me and de road will get smoother bime by.’”

(Note from CJ: Hang in there Christian! The battle is only going to get harder, as the night weares on, and the enemy rages. HOWEVER, were on the winnin’ side! Praise the Lord! And when you think the battle is getting to hard, the road to rough, and you can feel the breath of the enemy on your neck…… SING! Sing a song for the One who saved you, and IS COMING for you. Praise the Lord! He is near, and He is able to deliver you. Praise His Name! There isn’t anything the enemy hates more than when he attacks, hoping to wound his prey, and when he comes close to hear the cries of the wounded, hears only the sweet song of the saints…. “He is able to deliver thee. He is able to deliver thee. Though by sin oppressed, go to Him for rest, our God is able to deliver thee.”)
