  6. Hey, wouldn't it be cool if when we died, God sent a tall ship like this one, captained by angels, to take us to our new home?? I'm going to put in a request. LOL. Now, I'm getting excited about dying. :-)

    The Gospel Of Grace

    Words by Ray Boltz, Music by Greg Gilpin and Ray Boltz

    They say in the harbor of heaven
    Is a ship called the Gospel of Grace
    A glorious ship, that once made a trip
    Through the oceans of time and space
    She followed a star to a stable
    She carried the Child of the King
    And when she set sail
    So goes the tale
    All of the angels would sing

    CHORUS:
    The Gospel of Grace is sailing
    What a glorious sight to behold
    Her heavenly banners are waving
    Her sails are covered with gold
    They say when a man looks upon her
    The glory will shine on his face
    For therell never be
    A ship on the sea
    Like the glorious Gospel of Grace

    She sailed to the land of the lonely
    To the meek and the lowly she came
    And each one she passed
    From the first to the last
    Would never again be the same
    The voice of the Father had spoken
    A heavenly sign had come down
    And everyone knew
    His promise was true
    The heavens were filled with the sound

    CHORUS

    Then one day she sank to the bottom
    At a place called the old rugged cross
    But the Child of the King,
    Now her captain
    Came sailing her back to the top
    And then as they sailed
    Off toward heaven
    He called out, Get ready my friends
    I must go away, but therell come a day
    I promise youll see Me again

    And the Gospel of Grace will be sailing
    What a glorious sight well behold
    Her heavenly banners a waving
    Shes coming to carry us home
    For now we see through a glass darkly
    But then we will see face to face
    And as we climb aboard
    Well give thanks to the Lord
    For His glorious Gospel of Grace
    And as we climb aboard
    Well give thanks to the Lord
    For His glorious Gospel of Grace

  9. Beautiful picture!

    (Why does it say "ORINGINAL" at the top?)

  10. Oh Kirsten, I've never heard that song! It's beautiful and a perfect match for this picture. :-) Thank you so much for sharing it!

    I think it says Original because the designer doesn't want anyone copying it for their own purposes.

  11. This is a picture of a cross stitch pattern that I found online. I think you are right, Cap'n, although anyone could just crop the word out of the picture. I like to think of it as describing God. "Original"

    That is beyond amazing!! Now I want to see if I can use a tall ship that comes to the local marina and take the ship sailing off into the coulds!! That would be one exciting sailing trip! :D
