There's Not A Bird With Lonely Nest (WILMAR) - Beautiful Old Hymn

I'm late wishing all our Canadian friends a Happy Canada Day, and our American friends a happy 4th of July. Wherever you are, whatever you choose to celebrate, may God bless you with joy and gratitude. Just like in this hymn (I liked the bird theme from Wednesday's post, so I looked up more hymns involving birds). There is nowhere we can go where God is not also there. In solitude, in busyness, at home or out in the world...He is with us. 🌷
P.s. Wait til the very end to see 🥰. My daughter has been at horseback riding day camp this week, and despite the majesty of horses, they aren't the best part of the camp!

There's Not A Bird With Lonely Nest
Text: Baptist W. Noel

Tune: WILMAR by G. Minns

1. There’s not a bird with lonely nest,
In pathless wood or mountain crest,
Nor meaner thing, which does not share,
O God, in Thy paternal care.
2. Each barren crag, each desert rude,
Holds Thee within its solitude;
And Thou dost bless the wand’rer there,
Who makes his solitary prayer.
3. In busy mart and crowded street,
No less than in the still retreat,
Thou, Lord, art near, our souls to bless
With all a father's tenderness.
4. And we, where’er our lot is cast,
While life, and thought, and feeling last,
Through all the years, in every place,
Will bless Thee for Thy boundless grace.

Thankyou Kathryn for singing such a beautiful hymn. I love the theme of nature, of God's wonderful creation. The horses are so beautiful and the kittens are so sweet. I just want to cuddle them. Have a great weekend. We are having a party on Sunday afternoon. Love from Dorita.

Oh, oh - those kittens are way too cute! Must've been tempting to take them home. Nice grey horse in that string. I'm very partial to grey horses.🙂 My wife and I are members of a thoroughbred horse racing club here in northwest Alberta. This year we are racing two horses and one is a grey roan. He runs this weekend. 🏇🤞🙂 Thank you for your wonderful posts!

Hello! How did your horses do? They are such incredible creatures. I just wish I could understand their language. I only speak "cat"!

@@KTSings_ Our horses have been doing well. The Grey Roan (Real Justice) ran again yesterday and came in second place to a really good horse. The #ABWildfire smoke is very bad here, often AQI of 10+ and hot too. For awhile we thought the races might be canceled. In the end was okay.
