I still think we did it better in IWC concert choir, but this is an excellent rendition with organ accompaniment. It gives me chills to hear it and brings tears to my eyes to sing it.
Verleih' uns Frieden gnädiglich,
Herr Gott, zu unser'n Zeiten,
Es ist doch ja kein Ander nicht,
Der für uns könnte streiten,
Denn du, unser Gott alleine.
Which loosely translates to:
In these our days so perilous,
Lord, peace in mercy send us;
No God but thee can fight for us,
No God but thee defend us;
Thou our only God and Saviour.
(My apologies for the super-quiet sound; make sure you turn your speakers back down after you're done listening or you might get an unpleasant surprise later!)
On our recent road trip down to my mom's house in Ft. Worth, TX, we stopped at an action figure museum in Oklahoma that was advertised on a billboard along I-35. It was kind of small, and the displays the guy had put together were a little masturbatory (albeit funny), but we had a good time looking through everything.
Anyway, I saw this action figure and immediately thought of Missy (aka freesnowcone) and her old icon with these guys on it, and had to take a picture of it for her. It's the little, obscure things, y'know.
What was your most memorable or favorite school field trip?
This sounds silly, but it was in third grade, on my 9th birthday. We went out to Briggs Woods for some sort of winter expedition, and got to walk across the frozen lake, which I remember thinking was pretty excellent. And then, we made snow ice cream! Well, the ice cream wasn't made out of snow, but we made it in soup cans buried in the snow. And I remember sitting next to my best friend and watching his digital watch count up till 1:13 PM, and as we sat and ate our ice cream, we cheered to my birthday.
Hey, neat, it is! Thanks again, Sunnie!
Maybe when I'm more awake I'll dink around with this a bit more. Could be fun!
