Musical Monday

I took a break from blogging last week. We had such a busy week that I didn't have any time to write.
 This week we were made very grateful to have a sink and running water. Our sink was clogged and so we had to haul our dishes upstairs, wash them in the bathtub, dry them, and then bring them back down to put them away. The plumber came out to diagnose the problem, and then should be out tomorrow to fix it.

We did piano today and I am very excited because now we actually have a valid excuse to go to the music store. The kids need some things, so we get to go pick it up. I LOVE the music store. I always feel like a little kid at Christmas. I would buy out the whole store if I could.

I LOVE this Hymn. We sing it in church from time to time and I always get the goosebumps. I would like to get the book when we go to the music store. They have written so many great songs.

By faith we see the hand of God
In the light of creation's grand design
In the lives of those who prove His faithfulness
Who walk by faith and not by sight

By faith our fathers roamed the earth
With the power of His promise in their hearts
Of a holy city built by God's own hand
A place where peace and justice reign

We will stand as children of the promise
We will fix our eyes on Him our soul's reward
Till the race is finished and the work is done
We'll walk by faith and not by sight

By faith the prophets saw a day
When the longed-for Messiah would appear
With the power to break the chains of sin and death
And rise triumphant from the grave

By faith the church was called to go
In the power of the Spirit to the lost
To deliver captives and to preach good news
In every corner of the earth

We will stand as children of the promise
We will fix our eyes on Him our soul's reward
Till the race is finished and the work is done
We'll walk by faith and not by sight

By faith this mountain shall be moved
And the power of the gospel shall prevail
For we know in Christ all things are possible
For all who call upon His name

We will stand as children of the promise
We will fix our eyes on Him our soul's reward
Till the race is finished and the work is done
We'll walk by faith and not by sight
~Keith and Kristyn Getty.
