In Christ alone my hope is found;
He is my light, my strength, my song;
This cornerstone, this solid ground,
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
My comforter, my all in all—
Here in the love of Christ I stand.
In Christ alone, Who took on flesh,
Fullness of God in helpless babe!
This gift of love and righteousness,
Scorned by the ones He came to save.
Till on that cross as Jesus died,
The wrath of God was satisfied;
For ev'ry sin on Him was laid—
Here in the death of Christ I live.
There in the ground His body lay,
Light of the world by darkness slain;
Then bursting forth in glorious day,
Up from the grave He rose again!
And as He stands in victory,
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 pow'r of Christ in me;
From life's first cry to final breath,
Jesus commands my destiny.
No pow'r of hell, no scheme of man,
Can ever pluck me from His hand;
Till He returns or calls me home—
Here in the pow'r of Christ I'll stand.
PRAISE THE LORD - HE IS RISEN!!!!!!
Let me tell you, I had an awesome Easter. No school Good Friday, or the Monday after (why do we have cool names for all the days leading up to Easter, but none for the day after? ...I shall check on this...) and my younger brother Austin was able to visit me as I was unable to make it home to Michigan for such a short amount of time. We went to New York City for the day (Friday: he'd never been before), and spent the rest of the weekend with my boyfriend's family in Delaware. SUCH good food. ALL weekend. And although we didn't do much more than watch movies and hang out and eat, I think that's what it's all about. Not Easter per se (because I think I've covered pretty well what Easter's all about in my life song listed above), but a good, wholesome break. No homework was accomplished, but man was my soul nourished.
Audie and me. We look like sibs.
Me and Kev. We better not look like sibs.
Easter "baskets"!
NYC. I'm really diggin my colors in this one. I like to think that I match... but I'm aware of my inadequacies... :P
What it's all about... no... WHOM it's all about.
