Friday May 22, Photo and Song is today’s post. I took the photo back in the winter when I got up early enough to catch the sunrise, and I love the way the verse fits. I hope you enjoy!
Here’s Psalm 130. Here’s Psalm 130. It’s one of my favorites:
Psalm 130
A song of ascents.
1 Out of the depths I cry to you, Lord;
2 Lord, hear my voice.
Let your ears be attentive
to my cry for mercy.
3 If you, Lord, kept a record of sins,
Lord, who could stand?
4 But with you there is forgiveness,
so that we can, with reverence, serve you.
5 I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits,
and in his word I put my hope.
6 I wait for the Lord
more than watchmen wait for the morning,
more than watchmen wait for the morning.
7 Israel, put your hope in the Lord,
for with the Lord is unfailing love
and with him is full redemption.
8 He himself will redeem Israel
from all their sins.
Here’s the song for today. I’ve been meaning to use this one and every week I forgot. I hope you enjoy! Here are other versions.

I’m not an early morning person so maybe this verse relates to me? I love the song. Gospel is one of my favorites, “gets the juices flowing”!

That sounds like a good book, Gloria! Glad you enjoyed the post.
What a lovely picture and verse. Although it was mid-afternoon before I saw it, it’s a good way to start a day.
I also enjoyed the video. Yet, it’s a bit nostalgic seeing all of those wonderful singers who are no longer with us. I wouldn’t be surprised if a third or more of them have passed on. I see one after the other in the early Gaither videos who are gone from us. If I live long enough, everyone I ever knew who have accepted Christ as Savior may be waiting on the other side wondering where I am.

Those early videos are bittersweet, Edward, for sure. I miss so many of the singers who have gone on. Glad you enjoyed the post!
