Anthem “I Will Arise and Go To Jesus”
I will arise and go to Jesus, he will embrace me with his arms.
In the arms of my dear savior, Oh! There are ten thousand charms.
Come, thou fount of every blessing, tune my heart to sing thy grace.
Streams of mercy, never ceasing, call for songs of loudest praise.
Teach me some melodious sonnet, sung by flaming tongues above;
Praise the mount I’m fixed upon it, mount of thy redeeming love.

Many thanks to Debbie and Bobby Abernathy who opened up their home on the Rappahannock River for the day. Also, thanks to Jeff, Rhonda and Kevin Abernathy for their help with the chicken, hot dogs and hamburgers. Cheryl Ender and her crew had some great side dishes as well. Along with the magnificent view of the river and the huge sandy beach for the children, these elements are hard to beat for summer time fun.
