Sabbath Music - Dulcimer Hymnal

Greetings sweet Gail-Friends.  I hope you've had a good week.  Mine has been wonderfully busy doing creative things.  I'm combining this post with my Thankful Thursday post because I've had so much going on.

I'm very thankful for a book that came into my hands this week.  You can read about it on my previous POST  --  NOW: Purposeful Steps Toward a More Abundant Life by Mrs. Sarah Coller  -- encouraged me to dust off my dreams and goals.  Playing the Appalachian mountain dulcimer is one of those goals.  I purchased a dulcimer from Craigs List this week and have enjoyed learning a bit about it through YouTube.  The music I'll be sharing with you today is Dulcimer Hymns for the mountain dulcimer.  Enjoy, Gail-Friends.  I'm thankful, too, that the sheet music for the songs can be downloaded for FREE.  (I love free, don't you?)

Here's a picture of a dulcimer workshop I attended last year at the Florida Folk Festival where I began dreaming of learning to play...

Which leads me to another thing I'm thankful for -- YouTube.  Isn't it amazing that we can have so much information at our fingertips through the internet?  One of my favorite things to do used to be browsing through the library. Now I love browsing through the internet.  It's like a giant, never-ending library in my own home. 

Today is preparation day, and the Sabbath begins at sundown.  I'm thankful for that blessed day.  Isn't the graphic lovely?  I don't have a source for it, but am thankful for whoever made it.  I'm thankful for His eternal covenant.  I pray you enjoy your Sabbath with your Beloved.

He is the Bridegroom, we are His bride
