Two Sets Of Jones'

I hope everyone had a happy Easter! I will return to blog hopping tonight - I'm sorry to those who I've been out of touch, life has seemed crazy busy lately for some reason! My memoir posts will return this Thursday. Right now, it's return of the memes!

This week's Music Monday was a song I first heard at Family Life's A Weekend To Remember marriage conference in 2004 (Joe's oldest sister gave us tickets for our one year anniversary):

This here's a song about two sets of Jones'
Rothchild, Evelyn, Rueben, and Sue

And just for discussion through random selection
We've chosen two couples who haven't a clue

Rothchild was lucky to marry so wealthy,
Evelyn bought him a house on the beach.

Rueben and Sue, they had nothing but Jesus
And at night they would pray that he would care for them each

And the rain, came down,
And it blew the forewalls down
And the clouds they rolled away
And one set of Jones' was standing that day

Evelyn's daddy was proud of young Rothchild,
He worked the late hours to be number one
Just newly weds and their marriage got rocky,
He's flying to Dallas, she's having a son.

Rueben was holding, a Giddeon's Bible,
And he screamed "it's a boy" so that everyone heard
And the guys at the factory took a collection,
And again God provided for bills he incured

So what is the point of this story,
What am I trying to say
Well is your life built on the rock of Christ Jesus
Or a sandy foundation you've managed to lay

Well needless to say Evelyn left her husband
N' sued him for every penny he had
But I truly wish that those two would find Jesus
Before things get worse than they already have

And the rain, came down,
And it blew the forewalls down
And the clouds they rolled away

There's two sets of Jones'
Which ones will you be?

Hi Andrea. I completely relate to being too busy to blog. I moved to a new apartment, and for the last month haven't been able to write or read much. Don't you hate that? Have you been using your Wii? I'm going to set mine up at the new apartment this week.
