There's a song in my heart!

I woke up nice and early for a change and had it not been an overcast day, I would have seen the sun rise. I just love the early mornings.

A fresh new day, a time of peace and reflection and this morning I actually had a song in my heart. believe me I have the crappiest voice and though my voice sounds wonderful inside my head but by the time it comes out of my mouth, it is terrible. Thankfully God can 'hear' inside my head and regardless he listens to the heart of my songs not the voice! The song I 'sang' is one I haven't heard in something like 15 years. Here are the words. I hope you can relate to them in some way.


Thank you for every new good morning, Thank you for every fresh new day,
Thank you that I may cast my burdens, Wholly on to you.

Thank you for every friend I have Lord, Thank you for every one I know,
Thank you when I can feel forgiveness, To my greatest foe.

Thank you for leisure and employment, Thank you for every heartfelt joy,
Thank you for all that makes me happy, And for melody.

Thank you for every shade and sorrow, Thank you for comfort in your Word
Thank you that I am guided by you, Everywhere I go.

Thank you for grace to know your gospel, Thank you for all your Spirit's power,
Thank you for your unfailing love, Which reaches far and near.

Thank you for free and full salvation, Thank you for grace to hold it fast,
Thank you, O Lord I want to thank you, That I'm free to thank


I have a market stall coming and wanted some items that are not just explosion boxes and cards. So last night I started on these post it note pad holders. Very quick and simple to do. I will post some instructions soon. I have a market stall coming and wanted some items that are not just explosion boxes and cards. So last night I started on these post it note pad holders.

The cover papers are from my stash and the heavy cardboard it is covering is recycled packaging from my new Fiskars trimmer. I noticed it was a good thick, stiff card and just knew it would come in handy for something.



The decorative ribbon is a 'Fozzy Felt' self adhesive ribbon that I bought on special at my local Spotlight. I think the round stamps are from Stampin Up and I used my nestabilities and cuttlebug to cut the shape for the greetings and the scallop layer underneath it.

If you are interested in purchasing these, just pop into my Zibbet Shop here.

Blessings to all and have a lovely weekend.

  1. This song was on my heart. Broken and beaten by this world, I found comfort in that familiar tone. I cried as I read this. Oh how holy is my father. How he takes away our burdens, I grossly underestimated Jesus. Once a Lawyer , once a sinner. Forever free by His grace and mercy. I only live for Him and His glory. Hallelujah Abba Father. Amen
