Welcome to my Garden:
This is in front of our old mobile home. We moved two years
ago the end this coming December. Jim never liked change,
so this move, at 90, was really hard on him.

READY FOR A CHANGE?

Ready for a change?
It's something that's hard to do.
Ready for a change?
I am, how about you?

Ready for a change?
Do you want trouble to depart?
Ready for a change?
It must begin with the heart.

Ready for a change?
You don't like the things you hear?
Ready for a change?
You'll find God is always near.

Ready for a change?
You must make a start today.
Ready for a change?
Then get on your knees and pray!

We feel afraid to walk the street
Some even fear when they sleep.
We fear losing freedom in this land.
He's got the whole world in His hand.

We need to get on our knees and pray
And ask God to be with us each day.
All together we must band.
