Ten thousand Years

Psalm 84
We went to Cursillo in Texas. Ostensibly Cursillo is a short course in Jesus. A time when one can make oneself available to God, a time when he might visit.
A big part of the Cursillo weekend is the closing ceremony. One of the hymns always sung at the Texas closing service is Amazing Grace. I thought the hymn rather trite until I heard it at St Peter's Brenham. There it was sung with enthusiasm that I had not heard before.
How I love the verse
"When we've been there ten thousand years...
Bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise...
Than we we've first begun."
I am waiting for my first day to be ten thousand years.
