In the meantime, I shall leave you with two of my favorite Passion Week hymns:
to thank thee, dearest friend,
for this thy dying sorrow,
thy pity without end?
O make me thine forever;
and should I fainting be,
Lord, let me never, never
outlive my love for thee.
(This song can reduce me to tears no matter how many times I've heard it!)
Sin's curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ
No guilt in life, no fear in death
This is the power of Christ in me
From a life's first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell, no scheme of man
Could ever pluck me from His hand
'Til He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I stand
Amen!
May you know the above joys as you enter into this holy week.

Well, that isn't fair is it? lol
have fun!
I love In Christ Alone, I sang it with the worship team last Easter, it is very powerful. The part that hits me most is " For I am His and He is mine" it just makes it very real for me.
Have a wonderful blessed Easter!
Have a great break. :) Happy Easter!
In Christ Alone is one of my VERY favorite songs, too (I especially love Travis Cottrell's version--my heart just soars with his voice on those words!!!). I'll miss you, even as I'm behind with writing and reading blogs, but hope you'll be richly blessed this week! :)
