ADD TO MY FAVORITES
Was seeded many years
In churches and camp-meeting tents,
And Mom’s voice in my ears.
The songs we sang as little kids
And choruses of youth
Gave knowledge “Jesus loves me”
To firm our faith in truth.
“Beyond the Sunset” sung in church
Was comfort in our sadness,
And “Victory in Jesus” was
A reason for our gladness.
Recalling husband at my side
Puts smile upon my face,
As well as children by us there,
To sing “Amazing Grace.”
Camp meeting was a joyous time,
“Love Lifted Me,” our song.
We stood on sawdust-covered floor
With each one singing strong.
As Mother went about her chores,
With praise, her heart was full.
She sang about the “Love of God”
And “joy Unspeakable.”
From seeds to fruit within my heart,
These wondrous hymns have blessed,
Allowing me to taste His grace
And know His righteousness.
