How Great Thou Art sampler---hymn series



How Great Thou Art
by Feathers in the Nest

colors of choice!

How Great Thou Art is a favorite hymn that I've played  many times on the piano and yesterday the song kept going through my mind for some reason. So I just sketched a little old country church last night before I went to bed. Maybe it was because this was the last song we sang at the end of the service when I went 2 weeks ago. Who knows?

The one I attend looks different, but living in the Bible Belt in the Deep South, I'm accustomed to seeing many country churches around. Each are unique. Each congregation sweet, and most make you feel welcome any Sunday of the year!

A Word Vitamin today that I've learned through the years:

God is really the only one that has the key to our heart.

I hope you have a blessed Sunday.

    Beautiful design as always! I too love this hymn, and I also love all the country churches. I used to live in Indiana, and that is one thing I miss so much...all the sweet, little churches with the most wonderful people you could ever meet. Thanks for bringing back those memories and sharing this special design with us...As Cathryn said...Amen!!!!!! and Amen!!!!

    I would love for a landscape artist to do a series of country churches. Think Marty Bell or Thomas Kinkade style.
