Wednesday, April 13th, "Morning, MaryLu." Outstanding picture ... to say the least ! First off -- I love sailing (sailboats, tallships, whatever). Look at the magnificent array of clouds; and of course -- the Glorious Cross ! Yes, I'd go "Sailing with God" ... any time, and day !!! Heavenly ! If only ... eh ! Thanks for sharing, Debbie. Take care, and, God Bless, In Him, Brenda Hurley
Hey, wouldn't it be cool if when we died, God sent a tall ship like this one, captained by angels, to take us to our new home?? I'm going to put in a request. LOL. Now, I'm getting excited about dying. :-)

They say in the harbor of heaven Is a ship called the Gospel of Grace A glorious ship, that once made a trip Through the oceans of time and space She followed a star to a stable She carried the Child of the King And when she set sail So goes the tale All of the angels would sing
CHORUS: The Gospel of Grace is sailing What a glorious sight to behold Her heavenly banners are waving Her sails are covered with gold They say when a man looks upon her The glory will shine on his face For therell never be A ship on the sea Like the glorious Gospel of Grace
She sailed to the land of the lonely To the meek and the lowly she came And each one she passed From the first to the last Would never again be the same The voice of the Father had spoken A heavenly sign had come down And everyone knew His promise was true The heavens were filled with the sound
CHORUS
Then one day she sank to the bottom At a place called the old rugged cross But the Child of the King, Now her captain Came sailing her back to the top And then as they sailed Off toward heaven He called out, Get ready my friends I must go away, but therell come a day I promise youll see Me again
And the Gospel of Grace will be sailing What a glorious sight well behold Her heavenly banners a waving Shes coming to carry us home For now we see through a glass darkly But then we will see face to face And as we climb aboard Well give thanks to the Lord For His glorious Gospel of Grace And as we climb aboard Well give thanks to the Lord For His glorious Gospel of Grace
This is a picture of a cross stitch pattern that I found online. I think you are right, Cap'n, although anyone could just crop the word out of the picture. I like to think of it as describing God. "Original"
That is beyond amazing!! Now I want to see if I can use a tall ship that comes to the local marina and take the ship sailing off into the coulds!! That would be one exciting sailing trip! :D

They say in the harbor of heaven
Is a ship called the Gospel of Grace
A glorious ship, that once made a trip
Through the oceans of time and space
She followed a star to a stable
She carried the Child of the King
And when she set sail
So goes the tale
All of the angels would sing
CHORUS:
The Gospel of Grace is sailing
What a glorious sight to behold
Her heavenly banners are waving
Her sails are covered with gold
They say when a man looks upon her
The glory will shine on his face
For therell never be
A ship on the sea
Like the glorious Gospel of Grace
She sailed to the land of the lonely
To the meek and the lowly she came
And each one she passed
From the first to the last
Would never again be the same
The voice of the Father had spoken
A heavenly sign had come down
And everyone knew
His promise was true
The heavens were filled with the sound
CHORUS
Then one day she sank to the bottom
At a place called the old rugged cross
But the Child of the King,
Now her captain
Came sailing her back to the top
And then as they sailed
Off toward heaven
He called out, Get ready my friends
I must go away, but therell come a day
I promise youll see Me again
And the Gospel of Grace will be sailing
What a glorious sight well behold
Her heavenly banners a waving
Shes coming to carry us home
For now we see through a glass darkly
But then we will see face to face
And as we climb aboard
Well give thanks to the Lord
For His glorious Gospel of Grace
And as we climb aboard
Well give thanks to the Lord
For His glorious Gospel of Grace
Kirsten: I love that! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteMaryLu: I am with you. I can't wait!
Beautiful picture!
ReplyDelete(Why does it say "ORINGINAL" at the top?)
Oh Kirsten, I've never heard that song! It's beautiful and a perfect match for this picture. :-) Thank you so much for sharing it!
ReplyDeleteI think it says Original because the designer doesn't want anyone copying it for their own purposes.
