I stand all amazed at the love Jesus offers me,

Confused at the grace that so fully he proffers me.

I tremble to know that for me he was crucified,

That for me, a sinner, he suffered, he bled and died.


Oh, it is wonderful that he should care for me

Enough to die for me!

Oh, it is wonderful, wonderful to me!


Poetry: Recite "Persevere" and "The Eagle" every day. Finish memorizing "The Swan and the Goose."

The Swan and the Goose

By William Ellery Leonard


A rich man bought a Swan and a Goose--

That for song, and this for use.

It chanced his simple-minded cook

One night the Swan for Goose mistook.


But in the dark about to chop

The Swan in two above the crop,

He heard the lyric note, and stayed

The action of the fatal blade.

And thus we see a proper tune

Is sometimes very opportune.

He lives, my Savior, still the same.

The Eagle

By Alfred, Lord Tennyson

Close to the sun in lonely lands.

Ringed with the azure world, he stands.


The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls;

He watches from his mountain walls.

And like a thunderbolt he falls.

We might watch Ella Enchanted in the afternoon if you really want to.  I did not like the movie at all.  I watched it once and never wanted to watch it again.  I was mad at it. BUT- Sister Jessee told me she LOVES it and it is one on her favorites.  Why is that???  What do you think?  Why would Sister Jessee love it but I can't stand it?
