"evermore and evermore"

CHRISTIAN PRAYERS lyrics The first time I heard this hymn was when the children's choir sang it many years ago at The Lutheran Church of the Incarnate Word in Rochester, NY. In the last few years it has become especially meaningful especially as I have learned more about this type of musical chant in the last year. All of the wonderful blessings we enjoy as in the Christmas season are "Of the Father's love begotten," because of all that God has done for us by sending our savior, Jesus Christ into the world. I've been pondering several of them the last few days, especially now that we're on vacation and there is time to take a breath. Here are some of those wonderful things for which I'm so thankful: 1. Getting out of Gettysburg before the storm hit. 2. Arriving safely at my daughter's house. 3. Being able to have time with Grace, our granddaughter. 4. Christmas shopping with my daughter, Sarah. 5. Even better...Sarah was so excited about time to shop
