-NidAii iS"ali.t IIOlli my OTdHQ-
ma a long time ago, back when |
was a little boy that there's
whole lots of parts in the Bible
what Aint Haggar's Chilluns got a
whole lots more faith in than they
have in whole lotta other things
also in the Bible, not that the
Chilluns don't believe in them all
which is exactly like it oughta be
from where / sit and see. / learnt
what Pm trying to beat out here
back when | was a boy from
Grandma, who, when something
happened to disturb the tribe to
the extent that everybody was
going around looking glum and
talking in whispers, Grandma
would always start singing about
THE LORD WORKS IN MYS-
TERIOUS WAYS HIS WON
DERS TO PERFORM HE
PLANTS HIS FOOTSTEPS UP
ON THE SEAS AND RIDES UP
ON THE STORM | thought
about this as | was having my
regular Satdee Mite repast (Fish
4 Beer) when a group of brothers
and sisters of the tribe, in a sorta
subdued conversation, while also
doing their Satdee Mite indulging
was talking about what the news
papers WAS saying and
WASN'T saying about the thing
that had them quequed-up around
the table and at every home talk
ing in whispers and paeping and
peering for some invisible trouble
II. When, as though it came
from under their table, rather than
from out of their mouths, heard
somebody say, well man, you know
what the old folks used to say
THE LORD WORKS IN MYS-
TERIOUS WAYS, and maybe in
the wind-up, Amt Haggar's Chill
lun, as that fellow calls US Up
and Down Parish Street, will be a
lots better off. AS / listened,
| knew that Amt Haggar's Chillun
had Communism beat i. and that
they would beat everything else
if they kept on believing :. 4. THE
LORD WORKS IN MYSTERIOUS
WAYS HIS WONDERS TO PER-
FORM HE PLANTS HIS
| FOOTSTEPS ON THE SEAS AND
RIDES UPON THE STORM.
