May Our Circle Be Unbroken

We recently returned from a long trip during which we spent some time with our extended Krum family. All were able to be there except those who are overseas (which at this point is 6 of us). As we drove away after saying goodbye, the feelings of thankfulness for the blessings God has given to us in our family, which had been welling up over the weekend, overflowed into a poem.

May Our Circle Be Unbroken

We are blessed beyond all measure,
We possess a priceless treasure
In our family.

In our circle may we never
Let one small diversion sever
Our sweet unity.

May our focus never waver
From beholding Christ our Savior,
Our security.

May we radiate the brightness
Of our precious Savior's likeness
With humility.

May our circle be unbroken,
Be of Jesus' love a token
For eternity.


Enjoying being together, but missing Uncle Roger, Aunt Amy, Nathan, Alyssa, Brian, and Andrew.



According to age (minus 4 cousins): Adelle, Alec, Kevin, Austin, Julie, Rachel, Janelle, Lisa, Heather. I think Rachel and I will be the shortest cousins when everyone has grown up! :-)
