May Day

To make up for my lack of posting last month, I want to try to post every day in May!

 

HAPPY MAY DAY!

 

Song: Where Can I Turn For Peace

Artist: Hymns

 

Since it's the Sabbath, I thought I should share one of my most favorite hymns. Especially as of late. I will sing this hymn to myself whenever I am feeling extremely overwhelmed or stressed out (which is practically every day of my life). The words are so beautiful, they make me cry. I truly do feel peace when I sing the words of this song to myself. It reminds me that I am loved. And watched over. And cared for. Even when I sometimes don't feel like I am. My favorite part of the song is the third verse, tears every time!

 

"In my Gethsemane, Savior and Friend"

 

 

 

Where can I turn for peace?

Where is my solace

When other sources cease to make me whole?

When with a wounded heart, anger, or malice,

I draw myself apart,

Searching my soul?

 

Where, when my aching grows,

Where, when I languish,

Where, in my need to know, where can I run?

Where is the quiet hand to calm my anguish?

Who, who can understand?

He, only One.

 

He answers privately,

Reaches my reaching

In my Gethsemane, Savior and Friend.

Gentle the peace he finds for my beseeching.

Constant he is and kind,

Love without end.

 

Two of my favorite hymns in one! This is beautiful!!
