Tune: Old Hundredth
('All people that on earth do dwell')
John 14 v.1-7
*********
Let not your heart be troubled, see
Believe in God, also in me
I Christ His Son, [God] my Father He
Be now and through eternity
In my Father's house are many
Mansions, if not so, it would be
I would have told you, now I go
To prepare a place for you, know
And if I go, a place prepare
I will come again, take you there
Receive you to myself, that where
I am, there you may be too, share
And where I go you know, and too
The way there is known unto you
Thomas Said, Lord, we know not where
You go, how can we know way there?
Jeesus said to Him, See, I be
The way, truth, life, know this clearly
No one comes to the father save* (*= except)
But through me the Son that He gave
If you had known me, you then should
Have known my Father also, would
Have understood, and from now on
My Father you know in His Son

The Bible is translated into over 2000 languages and in each of those Languages the Truth & the Power of the Gospel is maintained. Nothing is *Lost in Translation* Pray for the Wycliffe Tranlators & the Gideons who work in 190 Countries with the Bible in over 80 different languages. They deliver MILLIONS of copies of the Word of God every year AMEN ! They were having a Convention in New York in 2001 when the 9/11 Disaster Struck & were able to PRAY with People (by Police Permission) and distribute 100s of Copies of the Word of God ~ AMEN ~ There is a God !
Blessings & Peace to YOU & FAB FIDO

Thanks A&B. Yes, useful translations. Just don't get me started on 'The Message' Version! It grates every time I hear something read from it.

Thanks Neville. A singing cat now? I wish I would shut up! lol.
