Patrick laughed. “Looks like our daughter got there before you.”
Abbie grinned at him, the baby in her arms.
“Means she’ll want a baby for Christmas,” Elle sighed. “Still, at least it’ll be a change from the puppy and the rabbit she’s been asking for the past few years.”
Patrick took her arm and followed Liam and Jacqui into the vestry. “No reason we can’t have all three, is there?”
She blushed. “I guess not.”
Jacqui nudged Liam. “Now there’s an idea.”
“Just don’t go getting any ideas about double births and double infant thanksgiving services.” Patrick pulled Elle close. “I want to spend a few months with my current family before we expand any.” He wrapped his arms around Elle and kissed her.
I take my refuge in the shadow of my God
Tune: Londonderry Air 12.10.12.10
I take my refuge in the shadow of my God
Under His wings, I have no need to fear.
Though terrors of the night surround me in the dark
And arrows fly, and men around me fall.
He sends an angel to protect the ones He loves
The darkness flees, it has nowhere to hide
The Lord Himself is standing right beside me
And with all of those who call upon His name.
The Lord will save you from infection and the snare
His faithfulness will be your shield and tower
And when you make the Lord Your God your dwelling place
The wicked fall, but you alone will stand
He sends an angel to protect the ones He loves
The darkness flees, it has nowhere to hide
The Lord Himself is standing right beside me
And with all of those who call upon His name.
“Because he loves Me, therefore I will save him
He calls on Me and I will answer him.
I will be one with him in all his troubles
Deliver him, and show him salvation.”
He sends an angel to protect the ones He loves
The darkness flees, it has nowhere to hide
The Lord Himself is standing right beside me
And with all of those who call upon His name.
