We have this ugly breaker box in the dining room so I decided to paint something to cover it.

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. - John 14:27
Every day you greet me
And every day I see you
But the sparkle in my eye
For you has waned
Picking up old melodies
Of songs from my old memories
Trying hard to keep
The sparkle warm
But I'm singing hallelujah
I'm singing hallelujah
I'm still singing hallelujah
To the Lord
But I'm singing hallelujah
I'm singing hallelujah
I'm still singing hallelujah
To the Lord
Children in the streets
Are playing hockey
With their feet
And it's looking more
Like soccer to me now
I can still remember
When you warmed me
That december
In the glow of all the family
You brought 'round
And we were
Singing hallelujah
Singing hallelujah
We were singing hallelujah
To the Lord
We were singing hallelujah
Singing hallelujah
Singing hallelujah
To the Lord
But there's something
In the singing
That keeps bringing
Me back to you
So as long as
I can sing it
I'll be bringing
It up to You
I'll be singing hallelujah
Singing hallelujah
I'll be singing hallelujah
To the Lord
I'll be singing hallelujah
Singing hallelujah
I'll be singing hallelujah
To the Lord
I am an artist. Paint runs through my veins almost as densely as coffee, if not more so. I am also on a journey. I don't know how long this journey will be but I know where it will end l. Until then I try to enjoy the things that God has for me along the way.
