I wish I could write the musical notes. I was humming and these are the words that came into my mind. It was a reverent melody.

I hum the songs I cannot sing

The peace and comfort they do bring

Sometimes I’m happy

Sometimes I’m sad

-but- praises to God

make me glad

Solemn tunes seem sad

yet joy beneath the clouds

sorrow at this world bound

release my soul to thee

look to the sky,

rejoice

no wonder why,

rejoice

fullness of days

come what may

I thank thee, Father

for each day

this is me…I want to say about 7yrs old. I think we were in Oregon but it wasn’t written on the back of the photograph, it might have been in Utah or Wyoming. My dad, George Bartlett took the photo.
