Evensong...

And another of Susan Werner's songs, from the same album. Good stuff, this.



I Will Have My Portion

And some would say
That time has passed me by
And some would say
That the wells have all run dry
Some would say
That's how its meant to be
So some would say
But I beg to disagree

Cause I know good fortune waits for me somewhere
I will have my portion I will have my share
I'll keep my feet in motion til they carry me there
I will have my portion I will have my share

Cause I do believe
There's a harvest in the field
I do believe
There's truth to be revealed
I do believe
There's treasure to be found
And I do believe
There's enough to go around

I know good fortune waits for me somewhere
I will have my portion I will have my share
I'll keep my feet in motion til they carry me there
I will have my portion I will have my share

Cause somewhere there's a blessing and it bears my name
and soon or late, it's coming to me just the same
Can't wait to see
What's set aside for me
With every new sunrise
I'm gonna keep my eyes wide open

I am trying to keep this attitude, but it is hard ... out of work for the better part of three years, not knowing where I'm going to live in two weeks, no more financial reserves but plenty of school loan debt, with a seminary education I can't really use, and another ordination process put on 'sabbath' for perhaps as long as three years. But ... thanks for sharing .... 'tis lovely, and, I enjoy your writing as well.

Oh, my... a rough path. I will hold you in prayer, and I wish I knew other ways to help.
