… In the world’s mighty gallery of pictures
Hang the scenes that are painted from life
There’re pictures of love and of passion
And there’re pictures of peace and of strife
… There hang pictures of youth and of beauty
Of old age and a blushing young bride
They all hang on the wall, but the saddest of all
Are the pictures from life’s other side
In 1895 a song was written about life’s other side. Hank Williams made it a hit in 1951. It was a song about the tragedies of life here on terra firma. The Bible is also full of the tragedies about living here, found in both the Old and New Testament. If you are not familiar with life’s disappointments, there are many around you who are. Here’s the solution for such experiences.
The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.
Give it some thought.
