I hope you end up getting the job, Tenny! π
^.^ Thanks, Ariel.
Thanks, Ela π I hope so too!
In other news, Tenny has a favorite hymn!! "Arise, My Soul, Arise" by Charles Wesley. π We sang it at youth camp with a huge group of people. Oh, it's so beautiful when sung with the right tune!
*shares lyrics* it's somewhat Eastery π
Arise, my soul, arise; shake off thy guilty fears;
The bleeding sacrifice in my behalf appears:
Before the throne my surety stands,
Before the throne my surety stands,
My name is written on His hands.
He ever lives above, for me to intercede;
His all redeeming love, His precious blood, to plead:
His blood atoned for all our race,
His blood atoned for all our race,
And sprinkles now the throne of grace.
Five bleeding wounds He bears; received on Calvary;
They pour effectual prayers; they strongly plead for me:
βForgive him, O forgive,β they cry,
βForgive him, O forgive,β they cry,
βNor let that ransomed sinner die!β
The Father hears Him pray, His dear anointed One;
He cannot turn away, the presence of His Son;
His Spirit answers to the blood,
His Spirit answers to the blood,
And tells me I am born of God.
My God is reconciled; His pardoning voice I hear;
He owns me for His child; I can no longer fear:
With confidence I now draw nigh,
With confidence I now draw nigh,
And βFather, Abba, Father,β cry.
Yesterday I got my dress pattern for Anna's coronation dress and was finally able to start into it! I cut out all the pattern pieces yesterday, and today I cut out the pieces for the bodice lining. I'm making the lining first, to make sure I don't mess up on the actual bodice! π This is my first time sewing with satin, but it's going really well. I have one more seam to finish, and the bodice lining will be done! Tomorrow I'm making a stop at JoAnn's to pick up interfacing and a separating zipper because I missed those on my list when I purchased my materials several weeks ago. Let me just say, I am so thrilled to finally be making this dress and I'm really hoping that it will be the most awesome thing ever!!!
Hurrah!
That's a pretty song, Tenny. I'm not sure if I know the same tune or not though. π
My new niece was born!!!!! But I haven't got to see her yet! She was born on Good Friday and got to come home on Easter! Can't wait to meet her. π
So exciting, Shi! Nieces are wonderful things π
They might not need me but; they might.
I'll let my Head be just in sight;
A smile as small as mine might be
Precisely their necessity.
-Emily Dickinson
Awww, that's wonderful, Shi! π
Islie, yes they are!
Thanks Ella!
I think I'll be able to meet her this weekend! π
Oh, that's so exciting, Shi! I bet she's adorable.
I finished the boning on the lining as well as the interfacing and the actual bodice. All it needs now is a zipper, and the fancy designs on the front before I can sewing the lining to it.
Thanks Engee!
