Lest we hang him up there twice.

This is a lyric from the song below that I wrote a couple of years ago now that I called Easter Song. I was tapped out creatively when it came time to title it. The link will take you to a very cool video I found at YouTube.

It's Holy Week and things at work are pretty busy. I thought sharing this was a good way to post, but not spend two hours working on it.

Easter Song
By J.D. Rose

All these 40 days I suffer
These 40 days I wonder
Am I worthy of his cross
His life for me
So I try to give my sacrifice
Lest we hang him up there twice
He’s paid all the cost for me

In trying days he’s missing
We sit here empty wishing
For a Savior we can’t see
But always close by
Couldn’t have been just a teacher
Or a wise man or a preacher
The King of Kings was born to die

Easter has come again
All your sins are forgiven
For the Son of Man
Was dead and gone and has risen

All over his world this morning
Another season is dawning
Chanting hallelujah he rose
And we are free
So let us carry his love
Heavenly gift from above
You know he died for you and me

Easter has come again
All your sins are forgiven
For the Son of Man
Was dead and gone and has risen

Let us sing
Let us praise
The maker of our days
Praise him in always
He is God
Let us sing
Let us praise
The maker of our days
Praise him in always
He is God

Easter has come again
All your sins are forgiven
For the Son of Man
Was dead and gone and has risen


Looking forward to Easter, because of worship ofcourse and also because I'm gonna drink a Coke for the first time in 40 some days!!!
