Tell me how did you feel when the angel came into the garden?


Tell me how did you feel when the angel came into the garden?
How did you feel? How did you feel?
When he said "if you're afraid I beg your pardon,
but you're the one to bear god's son."

Tell me how did you feel (how did you feel)
how did you feel (how did you feel)
Oh Momma, Momma Mary,
we wish you joy, we wish you joy.
Oh Momma, Momma Mary,
your little boy, your little boy
Soon to be our saviour.

Tell me how did you feel on the final day
How did you feel? How did you feel?
When you arrived in Bethlehem to hear them say
"No food no table, save in the stable"

Tell me how did you feel when the wise men came to see him?
How did it feel? How did it feel?
When shepherds and kings with precious things adored him
it had begun, here was the one.

  3. My dearest Jacoba,
    I'm so glad you stopped by and have so much enjoyed your comment.
    I feel very much blessed for having found you - you're such a special bloggy friend!
    Christmas eve has been rather quiet here as well although we haven't experienced the bad weather conditions as in the rest of Europe. No, we didn't have a white Christmas... but on the other hand we never do and my daughter was rather disappointed!!
    Wish you and you dearest ones a wonderful holiday season and fabulous new year.
    hugs

  4. Merry Merry Christmas to you and yours! What a joy it is to see you have stopped in for a visit! You have so many beautiful things to share. Rosalie was one of the most beautiful brides I have ever seen and what a gorgeous setting. We weren't able to see the eclipse due to ALL the rain, but we have dried out quickly with little flooding. The part of California with the horrible flooding is about 200 miles away. Thank you for sharing your lovely pictures. May many blessings find you in the new year!

    Hugs,
    Janelle

  10. Ik vraag me ook af of het een liedje is?
    Ik ken Roger Whittaker wel, als zanger, maar ken volgens mij het liedje niet...maar het is wel mooi, en het prentje ook !!

  11. Dear Jacoba

    Ik hoop dat je net zo'n fijne kerst als ik heb gehad.
    En 's middags begon het te sneeuwen.
    Het licht was zo mysterieus en de sneeuw was overal zichtbaar.
    Mams flat heeft heel veel grote ramen.
    Ik heb ademloos naar alle kanten gekeken.
    Ik had nog nooit zo'n mooi sneeuwgordijn gezien.
    Werd er stil van.
    Liefs
    Mapi

  13. Roger Whittaker....
    Meteen schiet er een song van hem in mijn hoofd met een strove
    you are so beautiful than spoken words can tell.
    Natuurlijk ben ik direct gaan googelen en kwam op ,,The last farewell,,.
    Wat is het internet toch handig, leuk en interessant.

    Je hebt ook een mooie postzegel bij je bericht gezet.

    Lieve groet
    Hermine
