Are Ye Able?
Religious or Redeemed?
The Impersonator.
The Miraculous Surrounding Christ's Birth.
God's Plan from Beginning to End.
She loved to travel and saw most of the United States, as well as Israel and enjoyed cruises.
Marjorie wrote the following lyrics, sung to a familiar tune:
I'm glad I'm a Christian
I'm happy and free;
Praise God for Salvation
He gave it to me.
My sins are forgiven
He died on a tree;
That I might have pardon
Throughout eternity.
He's now up in Heaven
Preparing for me;
A mansion in glory
With Him eternally.
Lyrics by Marjorie Bothell
Sung to the tune of "On Top of Old Smoky"
