A song for Sunday

A lot of the blogs I follow have regular themes for their posts- "Wordless Wednesday" or "Quotes to Ponder" and whatnot. I feel that my own little blog is missing out on this predictability, and if there is one thing in my life I could use more of at this point, it is predictability. (I almost typed "regularity" but realized that could be misconstrued as too much information. ha!) So, in an effort to be as cool as the other bloggers I see, I present to you "A song for Sunday."

Today we sang the third verse of God of Grace and God of Glory in church. Amazing how words penned in 1930 can still be a powerful prayer for the church today:

Cure Thy children’s warring madness,
Bend our pride to Thy control.
Shame our wanton selfish gladness,
Rich in things and poor in soul.
Grant us wisdom, grant us courage,
Lest we miss Thy kingdom’s goal,
Lest we miss Thy kingdom’s goal.
