TRANSCRIPT
Randy MooreWilliam Randall Moore,
“Randy,” was born September
9th, 1946 to William Nathaniel
and Gladdys Lance Moore. He
grew up in the Pleasant Grove
area in Dallas, Texas. He gradu-
ated from W. W. Samuell High
School and attended Arlington
State College.
His love for music started in
high school where he played
the clarinet in the marching
band and was active in the school and church choir. Randy
was a Boy Scout in troop 781 and earned his Eagle Scout in
1961. He then went on to work in various positions at Frozen
Food Express where he retired after 35 years.
Randy always loved scouting, camping, and fishing. He was
the Scout Master for his sons’ entire troop and worked with
the Boy Scout organization in some capacity throughout most
of his life. He was an active board member at the Addison
Community Theater where he spent many hours building sets,
running lights and running sound. He also chaired the com-
mittee that worked towards the development of the Water-
tower Theatre at the Addison Theatre Centre.
Randy loved reading everything he could, but he especially
enjoyed science fiction, instruction manuals, and junk mail.
After years of professing atheism he was challenged by a
coworker named Elise to read the Bible. He had reached such
a low time in his life that he didn't think it could hurt. He
began to read, and he identified with Job. He began attend-
ing Southwest Church of Christ and was baptized. He moved
to Highland Oaks where one morning he met Gloria Weidler, a
single mother of 3. Within 6 weeks, she proposed to him and
they met with Bruce Norman to discuss the wedding. They
were married on April 15, 1983.
Randy is survived by his wife of 31 years, Gloria, his five chil-
dren, Lara, Sarah, Jeremy, Joshua and Joseph and their
spouses, his four grandchildren, Nicole, Erik, Allyson and Gar-
rett, his sister and brother-in-law, Lana and George Thomp-
son, and his many nieces and nephews.
ten thousAnd reAsons
Bless the lord, o my soul, o my soul
Worship his holy name
sing like never before, o my soul
i'll worship your holy name
The sun comes up, it's a new day dawning
It's time to sing your song again
Whatever may pass, and whatever lies before me
Let me be singing when the evening comes
You're rich in love, and you're slow to anger
Your name is great, and your heart is kind
For all your goodness I will keep on singing
Ten thousand reasons for my heart to find
And on that day when my strength is failing
The end draws near and my time has come
Still my soul will sing your praise unending
Ten thousand years and then forevermore
Jesus loves me
Jesus loves me, this I know
For the Bible tells me so
Little ones to him belong
They are weak but he is strong
Yes, Jesus loves me, yes Jesus loves me
Yes, Jesus loves me,the Bible tells me so
I love Jesus, does he know?
Have I ever told him so?
Jesus loves to hear me say
That I love him every day
greAter
Bring your tired, bring your shame
Bring your guilt, bring your pain
Don’t you know that’s not you’re name
You will always be much more to me
Every day I wrestle with the voices
That keep telling me I’m not right
But that’s alright
‘Cause I hear a voice and he calls me redeemed
When others say I’ll never be enough
And greater is the One living inside of me
Than he who is living in the world
In the world, in the world
And greater is the One living inside of me
Than he who is living in the world
Bring your doubts, bring your fears
Bring your hurt, bring your tears
There’ll be no condemnation here
You are holy, righteous and redeemed
Every time I fall
There’ll be those who will call me a mistake
Well that’s ok
There’ll be days I lose the battle
Grace says that it doesn’t matter
‘Cause the cross already won the war
He’s greater, he’s greater
I am learning to run freely
Understanding just how he sees me
And it makes me love him more and more
He’s greater, he’s greater
AmAzing grAce
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now I'm found
Was blind, but now I see
'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed
My chains are gone, I've been set free
My God, my Savior has ransomed me
And like a flood his mercy reigns
Unending love, amazing grace
The Lord has promised good to me
His word my hope secures
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures
Blest Be the tie thAt Binds
Blest be the tie that binds
Our hearts in Christian love
The fellowship of kindred minds
Is like to that above
