“The witness of the Holy Ghost,
As borne by those who know,
Has lifted me again to thee,
O Father of my soul.
I know that thou art in thy heav’n.
I know the Savior reigns.
I know a prophet speaks to us
For our eternal gain.
My eyes are wet; my heart is full.
The Spirit speaks today.
O Lord, wilt thou my life renew
And in my bosom stay.
It dulls the pain of days.
For one brief moment, heaven’s view
Appears before my gaze.”
~Loren C. Dunn
Today was a fabulous Testimony Meeting. Not anything special other than Pure Testimony being shared. And that really is something special, isn't it?

That is the third time I've read that today. The first was before church today as I flipped open the hymn book and read the words to it. Then we sang it in our ward. And now here. The part that speaks to me today is "As testimony fills my heart, it dulls the pain of days" and the rest of that final verse. Beautiful message.
ReplyDeleteI love this too - "As Testimony fills my heart" - My favorite line.
