As we prepare to celebrate the resurrection in a couple of weeks I was reminded of a song I found several years ago that tells the whole story and is such a blessing that I try to sing it somewhere in the weeks before Easter. I will share it with you here.
Emptied of His Glory, God became a man, to walk on earth in ridicule and shame. A Ruler, yet a Servant; a Shepherd, yet a Lamb; A Man of Sorrows, agony and pain.
Humbled and rejected, beaten and despised. Upon the cross the Son of God was slain. Just like a lamb to slaughter, a sinless sacrifice; but, by His death His loss became our gain.
Satan’s forces crumbled like a mighty wall. The stone that held Him in was rolled aside. The Prince of Life in glory was lifted over all, Now earth and heaven echo with the cry.
Refrain:
He is Lord, He is Lord! He is risen from the dead and He is Lord! Every knee shall bow, every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.
As we pray and fast tomorrow please contemplate these wonderful words and the story we celebrate. This year my daughter, Michele has agreed to play her flute with me and we are going to do it twice. We will share it at the Assisted Living home on the 7th and at Whitmarsh Island Baptist Church on the 14th. For those of you who can, we would love to have you worship with us.
Please pardon me for my enthusiasm, but I can hardly contain myself in this most blessed of seasons.
