Your Mercies Endure Forever

The Story


This song makes me laugh!  I had the following dream:  


I was in the hospital with severe burns on both my arms. The room I occupied was a private room, white bedding on an old-fashioned double bed with metal headboard which I was propped up against, a pillow at my back.  Across from me was a single painting on a grayish wall; a small end table was to my left and a single chair (probably with a green cushion!) to my right.  In that chair sat one of my “friends” who insisted that my suffering was due to some sin on my part. Yes, Job’s friends came to visit me!  


As I tried to ignore what this person was saying, I saw a head peek around the doorway, looking  into my room.  I was a bit surprised as the Nun walked into my room, guitar in hand (the ‘Singing Nun’?).  She smiled as she scooted a chair in front of the foot of my bed and sat down.  She then began to strum the guitar and sing this song!  As she sang, I lifted my hands in praise to God and immediately my arms were completely healed.  I awoke from this dream literally singing, “Oh Lord, Your mercies endure forever…”
