Welcome to The Parting Hand

Many of us tend to move around, and many of us aren't always surrounded by folks who know us well. So, when it comes time for others to sing on our behalf, how will they know what our favorite songs were?

The Parting Hand is a place for people to list the names of their favorite tunes in the hopes that, when "the evening shades appear," their friends and loved ones will know what to sing. Of course, it would be appropriate to record other intentions here--such as scripture verses to read, things to do, and so on.

If you would like to have a page on this site, please go to this request form, where you'll be asked a few simple questions. You can use this same form to make changes later, too.

And if you would like to add links to recordings or photographs (or suggest new kinds of links), please send email to either of the moderators.

In bonds of love, your moderators,

  4. Your name here

My Christian friends, in bonds of love,
Whose hearts in sweetest union join,
Your friendship's like a drawing band,
Yet we must take the parting hand.

Oh glorious day! Oh blessed hope!
My soul leaps forward at the thought
When, on that happy, happy land,
We'll no more take the parting hand.
