“Old”
Wrinkled hands on weathered pages
Bible eternally old and new
Wrinkled hands on weathered pages
Worn by use and seen anew
Wrinkled hands on weathered pages
Old, but full of life refreshed
Searching daily for new truths
Seeking God and being blessed
Wrinkled hands on weathered pages
Words of life breathe life anew
Dust to dust are hands and pages
But…Eternal Truths and Lives shine through

Awww! Reminds me so much of our 93 year old GG! She still lives to read her bible but has forgotten most everything and everyone else.

That’s sweet. Guess if you’re going to remember something, it’s a good choice! My kids called my grandmother GiGi too…love that.
