"Gospel Song"


Lizziebeth started singing notes to a song a few weeks ago. We couldn't figure out what song it was as she continued to sing the same 3 notes over and over. Well, last week the notes to the song went to 5 with a few syllables thrown in. "Ho wee Ga een wav Bee am" (Holy God in love became) was what came out of her little mouth. It was a tearful moment to finally discover what our little baby has been singing. Ever since our sprouts have been born we have sung the "Gospel Song" to them before they go to bed. It has become part of the bedtime routine for the last 4 plus years. Sydney and Noah love to hear Lizziebeth sing, so they have been starting the song out and then she joins in soon after. It is such a joy to hear them singing together about the Cross. Precious!

" Holy God in love became,
  Perfect man to bear my blame,
  On the cross He took my sin,
  By His death I live again."

OK, precious moments. One time when I was watching Sydney, before Noah was born, I was puting her to bed and singing that song to her, when she started trying to sing it with me, but she was so sleepy she could only hum the song. I remember how precious it was to hear her try to sing. Then theres the time when she had to give bun bun a spanking, and then she got one little square of toilet paper and folded it and wiped bun buns eyes and told bun bun how much she loved her and that everything was ok. Ah! So cute!
