The White Cliffs of Dover was written in 1941
before America had joined WWII.
There was such devastation during the bombings of Britain.
When Vera Lynn sang these lyrics the people would never have guessed
that they would see the restoration that this song's lyrics describe.
Nor could anyone have imagined that we would find peace and allies
amongst the countries that were at war then.
On this Pink Saturday I wanted to share this song
that fills my heart with hope for Japan,
and the people who are fighting for their freedom in other parts of the world today.
We all could use some hope today,
and with God's Grace we will hold these people up in prayer. We need to be strong in our faith for those who cannot in the middle of their suffering.
Now if you join Bev from How Sweet The Sound you can enjoy more pink today.
Sunday the lovely Natasha of 5 Minutes Just for Me is hosting a special Sunday Song. Every Sunday Natasha shares a special song, and asks others to share their special music. This week her song is for Japan.
If you would like to use this on your blog, please take it home.
Beautiful thoughts and prayers for the concerns of this day. Thank you.

When two or more gather together anything is possible. Send peace and love out into the universe. What is put out there comes back. HPS!

Hi Karen,
Japan is in everyone't thoughts and prayers. This was a lovely post!
Calling by from 5 Minutes For Me to visit all the wonderful tributes posted this weekend. This one is very touching and beautiful.
Such a beautiful post
Beautiful post for Japan, Karen. Their tragedy is heartbreaking and it is so good to see sos many nations coming ton their aid.
happy Pink Saturday!
I am in awe at the strength the Japanese people show on the news coverage during this terrible time. They have dealt with the horrific loss of their loved ones and their properties, and yet, even with the terrible issues involving the nuclear power plants, they are pitching in and helping each other out. They are not waiting for someone else to do it. . . they seem to be taking charge of their own destinies as best they can. What a remarkable group of people. We in the USA need to take a few lessons from them on how to react to disasters.
My prayers are with those brave people. dana
