"John, I'm With You!"


Oh you have outdone yourself! There have been some stand up and cheer moments in our long time of watching here but this has to be the best one yet. I want to go on record with you that I am right with you and in complete agreement and love the fellowship that we are enjoying here. I am sure that I speak for many others when I say that I appreciate you so much. The scoffers must scoff for they have been prophesied that they should come saying "where is the promise of His coming?" Well, they will see and fear (Psalm 40) when we finally do go. We have endured and now is our time to rejoice for our having watched and held fast our confidence and let no man steal our crown.
 
I feel led to share this song that I wrote many years ago about this event:
 
"The Story of Our Lives"
 
All you citizens of glory stand upon your feet
It's the culmination of HIS-STORY you've waited your life to meet
The Desire of the Ages shines His lightning across the sky
and He carries in His hands the pages of the story of our lives
 
All you citizens of glory enter in His rest
He has won the victory and you have overcome each test
(for you) It's the end of war and bloodshed, suffering and crime
And He has said affliction shall not rise the second time
 
All you citizens of glory at the right hand of His throne
Ruling all the universe, His bride, His very own
And we shall reign together through all eternity
This is now the story of our lives, you and me
Yes this is the story of our lives, you and me
 
I rejoice with you John, and thank God for you and all you faithful Doves.
 
Barry Amundsen, and Linda McCormic agrees too
