Hi Folks,Welcome to another episode of A Song a Day Keeps Coronavirus away!Thanks so much for tuning in despite my absence. I had some voice issues and personal issues. Thank God they are both better now, however, I will be going back to work full-time as of Monday, May 12th so I will most likely only be able to manage 1 or 2 episodes a week.But who knows?

I Trust in God written by William C. Martin (1864-1914) It's amazing how the wonderful gift of lyrics and the music that accompanies it can bless us.1.I trust in God wherever I may be,Upon the land or on the rolling sea,For, come what may, from day to day,My heav'nly Father watches over me.ChorusI trust in God, I know He cares for me,On mountain bleak or on the stormy sea;Tho' billows roll, He keeps my soul,My heavn'ly Father watches over me.2.He makes the rose an object of His care,He g...

Day 31 of A Song a Day (Keeps Coronavirus away). I cannot believe that I have been doing this for thirty-one days already.That being said, the title of this song and the sentiment are quite apropos.

That sense of self-sufficiency needed to crumble (and I did) so that I could be reminded afresh of ju...
