Well, seeing the answers makes it a lot easier to answer doesn't it? now a little about Ethel Waters. HIS EYE IS ON THE SPARROW Why should I feel discouraged Why should the shadows come, Why should my heart be lonely, And long for heaven and home? When Jesus is my portion? A constant friend is He: his eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me. Let not your heart be troubled, His tender work I hear, And resting on his goodness, I lose my doubts and fears, Tho by the path He leadeth But one step I may see: His eye is on the sparrow, And I know He watches me; His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me, Whenever I am tempted Whenever clouds arise, When songs give place to sighing When hope within me dies I draw the closer to him, From care He sets me free; His eye in on the sparrow, And I know He cares for me; His eye is on the sparrow, And I know He cares for me. CHORUS I sing because I'm happy I sing because I'm free For his eye is on the sparrow And I know He watches me From what I see just on the net at a glimpse, Ms. Waters had no easy life. I would be remiss(plus MArk will like it) :o) if I did not mention the fact that Ms. Waters spent more of her life as a blues singer and jazz singer and an actress ,than traveling with Billy Graham. She did not write the song above, but she did write an autobiography named after the song "His eye is on the sparrow." So it must have impacted her life. I think I may have to find a copy of the book to buy. In answer to your question, I can't answer your question . You know something was said a while ago(maybe not on this thread) about memorial services for miscarriages. My daughter lost a child ((let me say here NOT by abortion)), (we had seen the child on a sonagram, but could not tell if the child was a boy or girl) It was quite a traumatic time for her, and in those situations, you have to be careful what you say or more what you don't say, so it did not seem appropriate for ME to be the one to say we needed a service, it would have been her choice to make. And because the mother has to go on with life, but do you know what? That was nearly two years ago and I still find myself thinking about that child. dan
