Apologies for not being a mind reader.
@FullMoon:
Like I said before, you wanna argue with Farmer, cancel all appointments, turn off the TV and phone, and make a lotta coffee.
Like the Scouts say, "Be prepared".
You should see what else I managed to accomplish in that time frame ;)
Mesanwhile, on the Deomcratic side, Elizabeth Warren, Pete the Butt and Breadlines Bernie axpressed their everlasting love for the State. "How else," Warren said, "could I legally force my will on other people, or legally pick pockets?"
Leaning on the Everlasting Arms is a hymn published in 1887 with music by Anthony J. Showalter and lyrics by Showalter and Elisha Hoffman.
Showalter said that he received letters from two of his former pupils saying that their wives had died. When writing letters of consolation, Showalter was inspired by the phrase in the Book of Deuteronomy 33:27, "The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms".[1]

Effectively used in the remake of TRUE GRIT, where it reflects the heroine's hardshell Protestantism.
The story is set in the 1870s, as I recall, so a hymn published in 1887 could be seen as something of an anachronism; but the song is sung off screen and not onscreen by one of the characters.
