- There is a place of quiet rest,Near to the heart of God;A place where sin cannot molest,Near to the heart of God.
-
Refrain:O Jesus, blest Redeemer,Sent from the heart of God;Hold us, who wait before Thee,Near to the heart of God.
-
- There is a place of comfort sweet,Near to the heart of God;A place where we our Savior meet,Near to the heart of God.
- There is a place of full release,Near to the heart of God;A place where all is joy and peace,Near to the heart of God.

O Jesus, blest Redeemer,Sent from the heart of God;Hold us, who wait before Thee,Near to the heart of God.- "Near to the Heart of God", hymn written by Cleland Boyd McAfee
Welcome to my "Open Window"...a place of hope, encouragement, and adventure as we journey down the road from "Closed Doors" to the new opportunities God places in our pathway. I hope you will take the time to go back and follow the trail of mixed blessings and fears, failures and triumphs from the past and side-trips in the present. Perhaps it will conjure up some of your own special memories, and be an invitation for you to share with others. I look forward to spending this time with you!
