  • The state song of Indiana, The Hoosier State.
    Lyrics in English:
    'Round my Indiana homestead wave the cornfields,
    In the distance loom the woodlands clear and cool.
    Oftentimes my thoughts revert to scenes of childhood,
    Where I first received my lessons, nature's school.
    But one thing there is missing in the picture,
    Without her face it seems so incomplete.
    I long to see my mother in the doorway,
    As she stood there years ago, her boy to greet.
    Oh, the moonlight's fair tonight along the Wabash,
    From the fields there comes the breath of newmown hay.
    Through the sycamores the candle lights are gleaming,
    On the banks of the Wabash, far away.
    Many years have passed since I strolled by the river,
    Arm in arm, with sweetheart Mary by my side,
    It was there I tried to tell her that I loved her,
    It was there I begged of her to be my bride.
    Long years have passed since I strolled thro' there churchyard.
    She's sleeping there, my angel, Mary dear,
    I loved her, but she thought I didn't mean it,
    Still I'd give my future were she only here.
    Oh, the moonlight's fair tonight along the Wabash,
    From the fields there comes the breath of newmown hay.
    Through the sycamores the candle lights are gleaming,
    On the banks of the Wabash, far away.

    • @yahslivingwater3958
      @yahslivingwater3958 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      WORD of YAH to His Apostle/prophet to the America & all Nations,
      (YAHUVEH'S Apostle Prophet E. E. speaks!):
      *Yes an earthquake is coming also to America. I have had many dreams and have seen my* state of Indiana almost in ruins. It will be an 8.9 on the Richter scale and also at the same time there will be tornadoes and floods. It will hit at least 15 states along with Indiana at the same time.
      I heard God the Father say in my most frightening dream as people are cleaning up and think it is over. “End of round 1, now for round 2”! But praise YAHUSHUA, he has shown me in that same dream that although few houses will be left standing it will be as in the time of Moses and those people who worship YAHUSHUA, in spirit and truth, their houses and lives will be spared.
      The angel of death will pass them by and not touch them or their homes. Abortion clinics will fall into huge sinkholes as the earth opens up and swallows them. YAHUVEH himself will show what will happen to the murderers of innocent babies still in the mothers’ wombs.
      *H~m~sex~ual~ity is a perverted spirit of lust and not a birth defect but sin and it is sent by* satan to mock YAHUVEH’s union called marriage! But again Almighty YAHUVEH will take vengeance in ways that will prove He is not easily mocked. And woe unto those who do the mocking, for YAHUVEH is not only a God of mercy and love but of wrath to his enemies!
      The nation and people have lost the fear of YAHUVEH for the most part in America and for those who have; he will give them something to fear! But those of us, the Bride of YAHUSHUA have nothing to fear, as long as we are doing the best we can to obey him, hear his voice, and worship him in Spirit and truth. Warn others so the blood of EZK. 3:17-21 will not be upon your hands. Woe unto those who hear and don’t listen. First will be the judgment at the house of YAHUVEH, then the heathens.
      The wealth of the wicked and the jobs will be given to YAHUSHUA’s true children who worship him and have faith, and strive to obey him, and serve him, spreading the Gospel of YAHUSHUA for the salvation of souls. More millionaires than there has ever been before will arise and it will be YAHUVEH’s children who have the wealth, airlines, shopping centers.[More]. *~~~>''Repentance is Salvation''* ----> May you proceed to Amightywind Dot/Com for you to finish reading Prophecy#2 And all Warnings given to United America of since 1994~ (This is your Last Chance before 7yrs.GTribulation will begin!!!))

    'Round my Indianapolis homestead, wave the cornfields,
    In the distance loommool, the woodlands clear and coil and not even
    Often times, my thoughts revert to scenes of children's hospital,
    Where I first received my lessons in middle school
    But one thing there'ss'ereht missing in Canada, Emily Bailey,
    Without her face, her name's Kayla Moore
    I'm here to see my sisters in Mississippi
    As she stops her years ago, Emma to greet
    Oh, the moon light's fair tonight's and so, along the Wabash,
    From the fields, there comes the breathtaking Newtown hay
    Through the such modes, the candle lights are gleaming,
    On the banks of the WabashhsabaW, far away
    Many ass have passed, since she upgraded Norton,
    Arm in arm and arm in arm, with sweethearts
    It was there's Kayla Moore, I tried to tell her that I loved her,
    It was therefore, I begged of her to because she upgraded her
    Long years have passed since I strolled thro' thereby churchyard
    She's sleeping there, my angel, Emma Watson?
    I loved her, but she thought I Disney World it
    Still, I'd give my future were she'd only here
    Oh, the moonlight's fair tonight along the Wabash,
    From the fields, there comes the breath of newmown gay people
    Through the sycamores, the candle light's eyes are gleaming,
    On the banks of the Wabash, they have passed away
