As long as the mountains stand,
As the sun for ages has brilliantly shined,
As the sun for ages has brilliantly shined,
I’ll go with you as to the end this trail does wind
My
child, you’ll ever find,
As
you walk through this world so grand,
My
love is greater than the sea and sand,
As
‘twas when I your pardon signed.
Greater
love is mine,
Than
any man could give at demand.
Here,
alone with Christ, I stand:
Let
pause the ages and time.
Jesus
will always be there for me.

DeleteYour faith full words are encouraging along with your beautiful photos, Bethany. The Lord's loving Presence with us, faithful and true throughout the ages, is hard to fathom with our minds, and incredible to sense with our hearts, isn't it. xx
ReplyDeleteGod is good!
DeleteBeautiful words Bethany, these words would go well with music as a song of praise! Oh and nice pictures too by the way!
ReplyDeleteThanks! My sister and I have set several of my poems to music, but music for this one hasn't come to me. If you can think of anything, I'd love to hear it.
DeleteVery inspiring post with another round of stunning images! Looks like you've been having a great time with your camera :)
ReplyDeleteIndeed! It's fun taking photos here and there! If I recall correctly, the first shot was in my grandma's flower garden, second was at a courthouse, third at the orchard, and fourth in Missouri. :)
DeleteBeautiful pictures!!
ReplyDeleteHi Bethany, those are really great pictures. I've always loved covered bridges, too. I never see them where I live, but whenever I see pictures of them, I am in awe. You know, I love that I always learn something new when I visit your blog. Have a wonderful weekend... :)
ReplyDeleteYou too, Dee! Thanks!
DeleteHi Bethany, I can't say much more than simply beautiful! Wonderful words and pictures.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful flower photo!

ReplyDeleteBethany, your photos are absolutely breathtaking and the words are just beautifully put. Simply a lovely post!
ReplyDeleteThank you Debby!
DeleteHi Bethany! Somehow you and I have become disconnected and I don't know how that happened! Once a while back I saw the most stunning hummingbird photos you had connected to a bird meme and when I tried to comment on it I couldn't get a comment form! You haven't participated in the book club for a very long time, and I realized at some point that I had never added you to my Follow list (will be remedied immediately!) I miss seeing your posts! Hope you are doing well. I will try to get caught up and will be a more active follower in the future!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful poem and photo!
Awesome to hear from you, Marie! I had someone else complain about difficulty commenting a while back, and I had a hard time commenting on my own blog for a short time using Chrome, which was very strange (I could with Firefox). I don't have that problem anymore, so I'm *hoping* it has been fixed. I haven't been doing much book-reading recently, though I did finally finish a book a couple days ago. I will be taking a trip over to your blog to see what I've missed! Hope you also have been well! Thanks again for stopping by!
