My God and I

We sang this during worship last week and I have been thinking about it ever since.

My God and I go in the field together;
We walk and talk as good friends should and do;
We clasp our hands, our voices ring with laughter;
My God and I walk through the meadow's hue.
We clasp our hands, our voices ring with laughter;
My God and I walk through the meadow's hue.

He tells me of the years that went before me
When heavenly plans were made for me to be;
When all was but a dream of dim reflection;
To come to life, earth's verdant glory see.
When all was but a dream of dim reflection;
To come to life, earth's verdant glory see.

My God and I will go for aye together,
We'll walk and talk *and jest* as good friends do;
This earth will pass, and with it common trifles,
But God and I will go unendingly.
This earth will pass, and with it common trifles,
But God and I will go unendingly.

This song is now stuck in my head, and I'm loving it! Normally it's songs I can't stand, but this is a nice change!! (that get stuck in my head, not that you put on the blog!) Thanks!

Did you know this is one of my favorite hymns? I love it. Strange -- but we don't sing it often.
Missed your traffic sign this past Saturday. =:)
