I love looking at the congregation/audience. You can see sincere appreciation for the singing. Some are pondering the words. Others are smiling and their eyes sparkle. George Younce makes no attempt to hide his appreciation. Gene MacDonald's face is lit up. That is appreciation for a lovely rendition of a great hymn. The message is timeless and interpreted in a warm way. Bless you and thank you

While strolling through the fields of time There are many things to see But nature is the greatest sight That there could ever be The greatest of them all to me Is how the world was formed And why the roses have to live Each day among the thorns One day among the world of thorns a rose began to grow It was the greatest gift of God this world will ever know It was the will of God to show that since the world was formed There had to be a rose to live And die among the thorns Along the road to Jericho A man was left to die There like a petal from a rose Two men had passed Him by A neighbor and a friend came by And saw His life was scorned With love he took good care of Him A rose among the thorns One day among the world of thorns a rose began to grow It was the greatest gift of God this world will ever know It was the will of God to show that since the world was formed There had to be a rose to live And die among the thorns Two thousand years will soon be gone Since God looked down in love There in the town of Bethlehem A rose began to bud It lived to bloom until one day Was crushed with awful frown And then with love from God above Was moved to higher ground One day among a world of thorns a rose began to grow It was the greatest gift of God this world will ever know It was the gift of God to show that since the world was formed There had to be a rose to live And die among the thorns There had to be a rose to live And die among the thorns

I’m not happy about Kenny Bishop’s coming out of the closet. I’m perplexed about how that would happen. But that Rose among the thorns is more than enough and more than able to call him back to himself.

It’s a hard shame that high tenor, Kenny Bishop, in the burgundy bow tie and singer of the third verse, turned his back on God and decided to live his life in homosexuality. Other than that, I love the song. I just can’t listen to it by

Toute ma famille est "PROTESTANTE", et je suis le seul " CATOLIQUE" par accident. Les chants religieux catholiques sont médiocres, faibles "mélodiquement, harmoniquement et rythmiquement" à comparer aux CHANTS PROTESTANTS. Les CATHOLIQUES mis à part le "CHANT GREGORIEN", sont faibles musicalement parlant aux PROTESTANTS.

It is written in Song 2:1,2..." I am the Rose of Sharon , the Lily of the valley . Exo 3:7,8 , The Lord said , I have surely seen the affliction of my people...and have heard their cry...for I know their sorrows. AND , am come down to deliver them . ...A Rose Began To Bud Luke 1:30-35 , declares to a virgin She shall give birth to the son of GOD... ...There Had To Be A Rose... John 1:1,3,14 In the begining was the WORD ...and the WORD was made flesh...full of grace and truth... ...Each Day Among The Thorns... Isa 1:18 Come now let us reason together , says the Lord . John 15:9,10 As the Father loved me , so have I loved you ; continue you in my love... Why The Roses Have To Live , Each Day Among The Thorns... John 18:14 Now Caiaphas was he , who gave counsel to the Jews , that it was expedient that one man should die for the people... ...There Had T Be A Rose To Live , And Die Among The Thorns... This is what that song inspires in my soul . The Glory Of The Lord Shall Prevail
