I suppose when one has a blog, one should consider posting every once in a while, yes? :P


Unfortunately, it's been a very long weekend following a very long week and I really can't dredge up anything original or inspiring from the depths of my tired brain. So instead, this being Palm Sunday, I'm going to post the lyrics of one of the songs my choir sang this morning:

To Calvary 
 Words by Jennie E. Hussey
Music by James Koerts

King of my life, I crown Thee now, 
Thine shall the glory be; 
I'll not forget Thy thorn-crowned brow,
Lead me to Calvary.

Show me the tomb where Thou was laid, 
Tenderly mourned and wept;
Angels in robes of light arrayed
guarded Thee while Thou slept. 

[Chorus]
I'll not forget Gethsemane;
I'll not forget Thine agony;
I'll not forget Thy love for me;
Lead me to Calvary.

Let me, like Mary through the gloom,
Come with a gift to Thee;
Show to me now the empty tomb; 
Lead me to Calvary.

[Chorus]
I'll not forget Gethsemane;
I'll not forget Thine agony;
I'll not forget Thy love for me;
Lead me to Calvary.


May I be willing, Lord, to bear
Daily my cross for Thee; 
Even Thy cup of grief to share,
Thou has borne all for me.


[Chorus]
I'll not forget Gethsemane;
I'll not forget Thine agony;
I'll not forget Thy love for me;
Lead me to Calvary.
Lead me to Calvary.




-My prayer is that we'll all remember Gethsemane, not only on Palm Sunday and other holidays, but every day as we bear our crosses. 


For His glory, 


Leah
