I’m sitting in Jon’s office catching up on all the Prairie Home Companion<\/a> shows that I’ve missed. I just heard some Oles (St. Olaf<\/a> students and alums — Um Ya Ya!) sing their fight song (the only one written in 3\/4 time) in 4 part harmony. (Garrison Keillor’s comment: “That’s a fight song?”) My mother-in-law instructed me to listen to it because I married an Ole. I’m also listening to the Gospel music that was part of that week’s show. I’ll have to ask my mother-in-law<\/a> if this week’s show was worth listening to.<\/p>\n

Hymn of the Day<\/b>
\nI’ve had this hymn in my head since I sang it in chapel on Monday at Luther Seminary<\/a>. It’s a Filipino one that has been translated into English and it is beautiful. The words are wonderful but the tune is beautiful.<\/p>\n

Lord, your hands have formed the world,
\nEv’ry part is shaped by you —
\nWater tumbling over rocks, air and sunlight:
\nEach day’s signs that you make all things new.<\/p>\n

Yours the soil that holds the seed,
\nYou give warmth and moisture , too.
\nSprouting blossoms, crops, and buds, trees and plants:
\nThe season’s signs that you make all things new.<\/p>\n

Like a mat you roll out land,
\nSpace to build for us and you
\nEarthly homes and, better still, homes for Christ
\nThe truest sign that you make all things new.<\/b><\/i>
