Good a quickie for you today as Mandy and I are off to the captitol city of the Republic of Texas for a day of Christmas Shopping. I can't wait to eat lunch and spend time with my wife; watching other mothers fight for that last Barbie doll on the shelf, I could do without!

Do you ever wake up in the morning with a song on your heart? One where the words resonate with you as you get ready for your day? I had one of those songs on my heart this morning. Still do, in fact! As soon as I awoke, the very first thoughts I had today were of an Acapella song on their "Beyond a Doubt" CD. Here are those words with hopes they bring a blessing to you today.

If there were no God there would be no music
There would be no dream to be dreaming of
What a dreadful thought of an empty future
If there were no God there would be no love

If there were no God there would be no children
There would be no joy to relieve our tears
Not a tender hand to provide us comfort
No consoling heart to subdue our fears

But we know that God is with us
And we know His majesty
Reigning now, the King Eternal
Yes we know the victory

If there were no God there would be no sunshine
There would be no rain to reflect the earth
There would be no jewels to display their value
There would be no thought of enduring words

If there were no God there'd be no creation
There would be no light, there could be no breath
No surpassing joy, nothing in existence
If there were no God all would be death

But we know that God is with us
And we know His majesty
Reigning now, the King Eternal
Yes we know the victory!
