Once again I sing this morning...

O Lord, I plead your Blood

I have a CD that I really like by Hillsong called "Songs for Communion". Most of the songs are centered around the redemptive work of Jesus Christ at Calvary, the blood and the cross.

For some reason this song really spoke to me today....

Where brokenness and mercy meet
How gently shall redemption speak
For love like ocean waves did break
Upon the shores of sin and shame.

To You my heart will sing O God
For O what lover keeps his song
In spirit & integrity
To join the song the heavens sing

Chorus:
Scarlet hands that bled for me
Servant King my everything
I kneel before You once again
Surrendered now to scarlet hands

When sorrow tries my hope to kill
To worship I have reason still
For light will pierce the darkest night
And peace shall be my lullaby

The time will fade to afterthought
Into forever shall I walk
In Glory's shadow ever free
Redeemer and redeemed to meet.

It speaks for me much more eloquently and beautifully than I could speak for myself. I love the lines.......

For light will pierce the darkest night
And peace shall be my lullaby.

[Coonskinner]

I feel that these beautiful words express my heart far better than i could...



What a beautiful thought I am thinking concerning the great speckled bird
And to know that my name is recorded on the pages of God's holy word
Desiring to lower her standards they watch every move that she makes
They long to find fault with her teaching but really she makes no mistakes

I am glad I have learned of her meekness I am glad that my name is on her book
For I want to be one never fearing the face of my Saviour to look
And when he come up descending from heaven on a cloud like he said in his word
I'll be joyfully carried to meet him on the wings of the great speckled bird

I know you are jesting, Coonskinner, but I have a CD by Sis Grandquist singing the oldies and she sings this song like I've never heard it sung...thank God for the Church!!
