Fallen out with you Willie,? never, I can't imagine anyone falling out with such a lovely person. I do hope Mrs Willie isn't the jealous type :wink:

AMAZING GRACE

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.


T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear
The hour I first believed.


Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come;
'Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far
and Grace will lead me home.


The Lord has promised good to me.
His word my hope secures.
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.


Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.

When we've been here ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we've first begun.



Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.

I found this in the last two pages of a book I have just finished reading.

UNDERSTAND WHAT CAN HAPPEN WHEN WE LET THE PAST GOVERN THE FUTURE, WHEN WE LET WHAT HAS GONE BEFORE AFFECT ALL THAT LIFE MIGHT YET OFFER.

THE PAST IS IN THE PAST; LET IT LIE THERE

So touching and so true

Short and straight to the point Thundercat, and the short ones can be very powerful at times, can't they.

Jealous!!! You don't know the half of it RRB, she's like a fish wife when she gets jealous.
Like a screaming banshee when she comes at me with jealous rage, 'specially when she's
been at the gin.
I don't mind telling you she's given me some whopping black eyes many a time.

In the name of the wee man and the big woman, don't you feel sorry for me.

It kind of says it all in one small verse. :lol:

Nah, I like it, and they sit well together. Thank you. :clap:

What a shame Thundercat. It's pleased to read you've been given a bit of a boost though.
I'll be thinking of you.

You're welcome Thundercat.
It can be pretty rough for us sometimes, can't it.

Anyway, here's hoping today is indeed a better one for you.
