Pause for Prayer: SUNDAY 7/21

The majority of my readers are experiencing a heat wave
and Duke Ellington's Come Sunday, sung by Mahalia Jackson,
seems just the perfect song for such a day...

Come Sunday by Duke Ellington, Mahalia Jackson, vocal



Lord, dear Lord of love
God almighty, God above
Please, look down and see my people through 

Lord, dear Lord of love
God almighty, God above
Please, look down and see my people through

I believe the sun and moon

Will shine up in the sky
When the day is grey
I know it´s clouds passing by

He´ll give peace and comfort

To every troubled mind
Come Sunday, oh come Sunday
That´s the day

Often we'll feel weary

But he knows our every care
Go to him in secret
He will hear your every prayer

Lilies of the valley

They neither toil nor spin
And flowers bloom in springtime

birds sing

Often we'll feel weary

But he knows our every care
Go to him in secret
He will hear your every prayer
