Guymon; the �Queen City� of the Oklahoma Panhandle; has long been the linchpin of Panhandle commerce; education; and entertainment. As a community of over 12;000 residents; it has seen growth�especially in the past two decades�mainly because of a rise in its immigrant population. With a median family income of $46;000; a low unemployment rate; and nearly 900 businesses; many see it as a thriving and prosperous town. Above all; Guymon knows its past and revels in its history of pioneers who settled the area in the late 1880s amid dugouts and cattle ranches and the railroad. Frontier heritage is clearly reflected in Guymon�s spirit of independence; friendliness; and irrepressibility. Guymon; a town older than the state of Oklahoma; is proud of its tenacity and will continue to be the mainstay of the Panhandle for years to come.

3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Hymns to spark your devotionsBy Steve CampbellI discovered many unfamiliar hymns in this collection. I also learned a few new things about the authors and composers of many of the hymns. The hymn for each day was selected because it was the date of the author or composers birth or death; the date it was first published or sung; or it was written or sung for a certain occasion; or it was significant to a certain event that happened on that date. Each devotional reading began with a brief story about the author or the hymn; then included the lyrics of the hymn; and ended with a Bible verse that related to the hymn.9 of 9 people found the following review helpful. Waking Up With a Song in My Heart!By IreaditI downloaded this book over a year ago when it was available for my Kindle. I used it every morning as the beginning to my devotional time throughout the entire year of 2012. Mr Morgan is an amazing researcher; historian and musician who knows his stuff. This book spoke to my heart in ways I never expected; and as time passed I found myself looking forward with anticipation to the song coming next. Its a great way to begin each morning! Some of the songs are so buried in time that I didnt know them at all; but others dropped their message and notes into my heart and I hummed them all day long. I highly recommend this book for its brief (5 minutes or less) devotional thoughts and charming reminder of the hymns of my growing up years!5 of 5 people found the following review helpful. Near to the Heart of God: Meditations on 366 Best-Loved HymnsBy cestrefeldI am enjoying this book and reading it day by day. Robert Morgan has researched the lives and stories of these great hymn-writers; most of them from many years ago. Whilst there are some of the hymns I dont know and have never heard; the words are inspiring nevertheless. In addition to the lesser-know hymns there are lots of hymns that I have known since I was a child and have loved them. The stories as well as the hymns are quite inspiring and I find pleasure and inspiration in the book
