MAY GOD BLESS ALL WHO POST AND LURK ON THIS THREAD!
Words: Johann Rist, Himmlische Lieder (Leipzig, Germany: 1641) (Ermuntre dich, mein schwacher Geist); translated from German to English by John Troutbeck, circa 1885.
Music: Ermuntre Dich, Johann Schop, 1641; harmony by Johann S. Bach, 1734.
Break Forth O Beauteous Heavenly Light
Break forth, O beauteous heavenly light,
And usher in the morning;
O shepherds, shrink not with afright,
But hear the angels warning.
This Child, now weak in infancy,
Our confidence and joy shall be,
The power of Satan breaking,
Our peace eternal making.
Suits me just fine.
Thank you, God, for all the ways you bless me every day.
May I always have a thankful heart.
Amen.
I'll let you guys sort this out, I am leaving for Buffalo in a few minutes. I'll try to check in later.
Mean time have a cup of coffee

I remember vividly that after the Good Friday Earthquake in March 1964, that it was late in May when the snow in my back yard melted and I saw The Crevasse that I knew surely would have opened wide (from its one-inch diameter, running across the yard) its jaws had I gone outside to ride it out!
