We’re spending a lot of time walking around the Blue Lake presently. It’s been very relaxing.
It’s been good to see its annual change of blue colour taking place even with our non-existent Spring.

Live Forever by Drew Holcomb and the Neighbors, featuring Ellie Holcomb.
Some people say faith is a childish game
Play on, children, like it’s Christmas day
Sing me a song, sing me a melody
Sing out loud, you’re a symphony
I want you to live forever
Underneath the sky so blue
I want you to live forever
Underneath the sky so blue
Take courage when the road is long
Don’t ever forget you’re never alone
Sometimes Sunday Songs is Monday Songs. That’s just the way things are presently.
I Long For You from the EMU MusicJoy In Sorrow.
This album seems to have a fine balance of well expressed lyrics and engaging melodies.
It feels more poetic and more singable than other recent past releases. I appreciate that.
The lyrics
1
When my confidence deserts me
And my perseverance fades
When the darkness overwhelms me, Lord, I look to you
Through the weight of sin and sorrow
You will teach me to rejoice
Through the fiery trials and darkest vale, I long for you
2
When your goodness is my portion
And your blessings overflow
When your loving arms protect me, Lord, I rest in you
You refresh my soul with wisdom
There is nothing that I lack
Through the pastures green and waters still, I long for you
3
When my strength begins to falter
And my body waste away
When my earthly treasures fail me, Lord, I cling to you
I will look to Christ my saviour
Where my soul is satisfied
And forever I am known and loved, within your arms

Westminster Larger Catechism – Lord’s Day 47
Q & A 191
Q What do we pray for in the second petition.?
A In the second petition (which is, Your kingdom come), acknowledging ourselves and all mankind to be by nature under the dominion of sin and Satan, we pray, that the kingdom of sin and Satan may be destroyed, the gospel propagated throughout the world, the Jews called, the fulness of the Gentiles brought in; the church furnished with all gospel officers and ordinances, purged from corruption, countenanced and maintained by the civil magistrate: that the ordinances of Christ may be purely dispensed, and made effectual to the converting of those that are yet in their sins, and the confirming, comforting, and building up of those that are already converted: that Christ would rule in our hearts here, and hasten the time of his second coming, and our reigning with him forever: and that he would be pleased so to exercise the kingdom of his power in all the world, as may best conduce to these ends.
