I WONDER WHEN....

There is a song that runs through my mind quite often this time of year. I think of what He has done for me, for my family, and for those of you who are reading this and for even those who do not know Him. This song is called "When He Comes Again"...words and music written by Mirla Greenwood Thayne. Even those of you who are familiar with this song, please take a minute or two and read the words again.

When He Comes Again

I wonder, when he comes again,
Will herald angels sing?
Will earth be white with drifted snow,
Or will the world know spring?

I wonder if one star will shine
Far brighter than the rest;
Will daylight stay the whole night through?
Will songbirds leave their nests?

I'm sure he'll call his little ones
Together 'round his knee.
Because he said in days gone by,
"Suffer them to come to me."

I wonder, when he comes again,
Will I be ready there
To look upon his loving face
And join with him in prayer?

Each day I'll try to do his will
And let my light so shine
That others seeing me may seek
For greater light divine.

Then, when that blessed day is here,
He'll love me and he'll say,
"You've served me well, my little child;
Come unto my arms to stay."

Mimi's Thought for the Day: One way to return a good deed done in your behalf, is to return a good deed to the giver or to someone else. Each day we all can try to do his will and let our lights shine.

  1. I love this song! Nicole and I talk about the Second Coming a lot. She has been anxious all of her life. She talks to her friends about it...even her nonmember friends. After she shares all the wonderful things that will be happening during the second coming of the Savior...she smiles and says "My Daddy will be ressurected and I won't have to miss him anymore". As the world becomes more wicked, I feel in my heart that the day is near. I too pray for the Savior to come soon...I miss him too & I know I will hear Paul's laughter again. Love Ya dear friend...thanks for reminding me of the sweet future. Today I am thankful for YOU!!!
