family music 165 | Child of the King

 

Cedric and Stewart


Oh yes, oh yes
I'm a child of the King
His royal blood
Now flows in my veins
And I, who was wretched and poor, now can sing
Praise God, Praise God
I'm a child of the King

Once I was clothed in the rags of my sin
Wretched and poor
Lost and lonely within
But with wondrous compassion
The King of all kings
In pity and love
Took me under his wings

Now I'm a child
With a heavenly home
My holy father
Well, He made me his own
And I'm washed by his blood
And I'm clothed in his love
And someday I'll sing
With the angels above

- Bill & Gloria Gaither

During his years as a full-time song evangelist, Dad was blessed to serve with many ministers. Rev. R. H. Nicholson was an evangelist who was also an artist. As Dad would play and sing, Rev. Nicholson would sketch with chalk to help share the message about Jesus. Someone would take it home at the end of the service. 

Rev. R. H. Nicholson was a well-known New Brunswick artist. His oil and watercolor paintings of wildlife and logging are familiar to many. Mrs. Jean Elizabeth Irving wrote a beautiful book about his life, and there is a display of his work at Kingswood University.

College Days

It's Dad in the dorm room with his buddy, Stewart, and others.

The picture is fading so I tried to make it a little clearer.

When I did, I noticed more and laughed!

Recently, Dad told me that he bought this accordion for $150. He said they were around $400 at the time, but it had a hole so he was able to get it for a better price. Pointing to the spot on the photo, he explained how he fixed it with some tape. I love to hear the stories of how God provided for my parents after calling Dad into full-time ministry.
