Wise Words that my father loved and that represented the way he lived...it was his favorite song.
If I have wounded any soul today,
If I have caused one foot to go astray,
If I have walked in my own willful way,
Dear Lord, Forgive.
If I have uttered idle words or vain,
If I have uttered idle words or vain,
If I have turned aside from want or pain,
If I myself shall suffer thru the strain,
Dear Lord, Forgive
If I have been perverse or hard, or cold,
If I have longed for shelter in Thy fold,
When Thou hast given me some fort to hold,
Dear Lord, Forgive.
Forgive the sins I have confess to Thee;
Forgive the secret sins I do not see;
Oh guide me, love me and my keep be...
Amen
Happy Father's Day! I miss you!
The righteous man leads a blameless life; blessed are his children after him. Proverbs 20:7

Oh, those pictures brought back memories of my own childhood! That afghan on the couch, dad in a t-shirt... My father passed away nine years ago and I still miss him terribly. So glad our memories are sweet. (and I love that song, too! It is one of a sincere heart.) Deb
