Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease;
I shall possess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, who call’d me here below,
Will be forever mine.
And mortal life shall cease;
I shall possess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, who call’d me here below,
Will be forever mine.

Those are beautiful verses to "Amazing Grace" that I had not been aware of. Thanks for sharing them. Marge
God's Grace is so great there are never enough words or songs to explain it. John Newton had to eperience it before he could attempt to describe it.
Another great song "Grace grace; grace that is greater than all my sin.
Dear Joel,
I just read your updates from the past week. I was out of the office on Friday taking care of my granddaughters. They were with me from Thursday til Sunday.
It is good to hear how the Lord is fixing your eyes on Him. The words of the last verses of Amazing Grace are so comforting. It is good, too, that you've been able to telecommute from the hospital. May the Lord continue to be your joy and hope in the midst of so much uncertainty. He is faithful.
Love,
Charlotte
