Where better to post this than in the thread where I found more laps than I had ever dreamed possible?I'll leave it here for the day someone else needs a lap and there are no Mudcatters present at the Tavern to hop into the recliner and snuggle up. See, it is a plaque, hanging right over the recliner section.... it reads:
IN JESUS' LAP
1 In Jesus' lap is always Truth
And truth in love is told.
In Jesus' lap is peace and life,
No story is too old.
CHORUS:
In Jesus' lap I love to lie
And lie there when I can.
In Jesus' lap where I was born
When to His lap I ran.
2. To Jesus' lap will I return
When buffeted by storm.
To Jesus' lap my soul does fly
When cold heart I would warm.
3. From Jesus' lap I'll pray for you,
And bless you in your way.
From Jesus' lap, love, I can see
You, clearer every day.
4 In Jesus' lap, His loving arms
Encircle what He's won.
In Jesus' lap, oh! lay me down
When I my race have run.
