Welcome to
LW Bell.Org
Since my surgery in January 2015 and Margaret’s surgery in June 2015 brought about some physical adjustments in our life style, we have been praying the Lord would open up a door of service that we could work on from home. We believe this website is an answer to that prayer.
For the past few years, we have made “AMATEUR” CDs for our family in Statesville, shut-ins, and a few other people as a way of sharing God’s love and our love with them.
We have been blessed to have a special friend with a God given musical gift who plays piano for us in addition to using purchased karaoke and accompaniment CDs.
As you listen to these CDs, we hope you will overlook all of our mistakes and hear only the message of each song and devotional. Our only goal is to praise the Lord and tell others about Him.

Special Father’s Days
Being a father is special every day, but I have had some very special Father’s Days that I want to thank the Lord for and share with you.
My first very special Father’s days were when my 2 sons were born. They have brought lots of love, happiness, and laughter throughout the years.
Another very special Father’s Day was in 2021. My children made a video with photos of all of us throughout the years that was very special and gave me a playlist of songs that include some about fathers and some that have always had special meaning for me at various stages of my life. I am including those songs in this album.
On May 3, 2023 at the age of 82, my first grandchild, a girl, was born. I was very thankful that the Lord blessed me to live long enough to experience the joy of being a grandfather. We have two wonderful sons and daughters-in-law that we get to enjoy this excitement with and we want to praise the Lord continuously for this loving family.
On June 3, 2025, we were blessed with our second grandchild – a boy who brings great happiness to our lives and the perfect way to make Father’s Day and the celebration of our 50th wedding anniversary on June 22, 2025 even more special.
“Mockin’ Bird Hill” is the memory of me on a hill near home in Statesville, NC as a teenager, singing “Mockin’ Bird Hill” with the hope of being discovered during one of the Arthur Smith Talent Searches that he put on in public schools.
“Don’t Worry” was the message for my family when I joined the Air Force in March 1961 and I would not see them from January 1962 until March 1963 while serving 15 months in Samsun, Turkey.
“It’s a Small World” is a reminder of the many trips to Disney World and other fun places as our children grew.
“Green, Green Grass of Home” – After being away from home in the Air Force, college, teaching in Monroe, NC, and moving to Lancaster, SC after marriage, it has always been wonderful to see the green grass of home and family coming to see me during visits back home to Statesville, NC.
“Count Your Blessings” is a song that Margaret and I always sang a lot that has been special to all of our family.
One of my favorite Father’s Day Songs is “Love Without End, Amen”, written by Aaron Barker, and recorded by George Strait. I hope you will listen to all the words of that song. It compares the unending love an earthly father has for his children to the unending love God has for His children.
Verse 2 of “Because He Lives”, is especially meaningful for Father’s Day. “How sweet to hold a newborn baby, and feel the pride and joy he gives, but greater still the calm assurance: This child can face uncertain days because Christ lives.”
God’s love is definitely a love without end and He is a Father to Christians as shown in the following Bible verses.
Matthew 6:9 – “After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in Heaven…
”Psalm 136:26 – “Give thanks to the God of Heaven. His love endures forever.”
