Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

FOR ALL THE SAINTS
One of the elders answered, saying to me, “These who are arrayed in the white robes, who are they, and where did they come from?”
I told him, “My lord, you know.”
He said to me, “These are those who came out of the great suffering.
They washed their robes and made them white in the Lamb’s blood.
Therefore they are before the throne of God,
And they serve him day and night in his temple.
He who sits on the throne will spread his tabernacle over them.
They will never be hungry or thirsty any more.
The sun won’t beat on them, nor any heat;
For the Lamb who is in the middle of the throne shepherds them
And leads them to springs of life-giving waters.
And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.”
— Rev 7: 13-17
1. For all the saints who from their labors rest,
Who Thee by faith, before the world confessed,
Thy name, O Jesus, be forever blest.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
2. Thou was their rock, their fortress and their might;
Thou, Lord, their captain in the well-fought fight;
Thou in the darkness drear, their one true light.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
3. Oh, may Thy soldiers, fiathful, true, and bold,
Fight as the saints, who nobly fought of old
And win with them the victor’s crown of gold!
Alleluia! Alleluia!
4. Oh blest communion, fellowship divine!
We weakly struggle, Thou in glory shine;
Yet all are one, for in Thee all are Thine.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
5. And when the fight is fierce, the warfare long,
Steals on the ear the distant trimumph song.
And hearts are brave again, and arms are strong.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
6. The golden eveniing brightens in the west;
Soon, soon to faithful warriors cometh rest;
Sweet is the calm of paradise the blest.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
7. But lo, there breaks a yet more glorious day:
The saints triumphant rise in bright array;
The King of Glory passes on His way.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
8∆ From earth’s wide bounds, from ocean’s farthest coast,
Through gates of pearl streams in the countless host,
Singing to Father, Son, and Holy Ghost:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Hey there, Garrison 💕☕ So autumn/fall has arrived…by the calendar anyway. But Texas being Texas, well, you know. I won’t let the lingering summer heat stop me though. I’m in autumnal mood as you will see below, adding mellow music to yours as we get ready for “the season of mists of mellow fruitfulness” (as surely it must be somewhere)….and thank you, John Keats. In the meantime here come this week’s finds, our lovely friends without whom life’s edges would be just a little sharper. WOOF!!
The Sphinx, bless him 💕
And now for an important political announcement 🇺🇸
Only his hairdresser knows for sure…

A Public Service Announcement
The FDA has approved a year long “poison” I next ion for dogs to repel fleas. The name of it is “BRAVECTO QUANTUM” which is causing seizures and death. Many vets are alarmed and are warning dog owners.
Here is a highly recommended substitute. Reviewers have stated that their dogs love these 💕
