one of God’s greatest gifts to us.. Music. I can’t imagine God without music. It inspires us, it brings us closer, and it brings back a flood of memories. Mansion.. First gospel song I ever learned.. Fishhook Sunday School Convention. Had no idea what harmony was. Mom taught us two separate parts in two different rooms.

Just a Closer Walk… Mom’s favorite. Wake up Sunday mornings to this. Also: New Orleans funerals. Thought it was: Just a Closer Walk in C

What a Friend.. Grandma’s 2 favorite.. South Prairie Church.. Where would Jesus go to Church? Holy Ghost church experience.. G’pa. How Great Thou Art ..In the Garden

Mississippi River Boat…a week cruising up and down the Mississippi banjo player….. Bill Gard….. “Always play religious music once they get drunk. They never know the difference and it might do ‘em some good.” Near the Cross.

The gift of music: Deaf Boy Most requested song… at nursing Homes Amazing Grace.

Jesus Loves Me.. had to do a report in 3rd on someone famous you’re your family.. asked G’pa Orr…William B. Bradbury

A mother of 4, all under age 11, behind me in church.. when stuck I turn to her and she always rolls her eyes and says..… Peace Like a River.

Raised a Presbyterian and never heard this song until about 10 years ago.. The most-requested song in our Arenzville church…but I used to be afraid to play it.. Mrs. Beard. Victory in Jesus…
