Good FridayThe Wonderful CrossMatt Redman When I survey the wonderous cross On which the Price of Glory dies My richest gain I cound but loss And pour contempt on all my pride See from his head, his hands, his feet sorrow and love flow mingled down Did e'r such love and sorrow meet or thorns compose so rich a crown O the wonderful Cross, Oh the wonderful Cross Bids me come and die and find that I may truly live Oh the wonderful Cross, Oh the Wonderful Cross All who gather here by grace draw near and bless your name Today we remembered Jesus Death on the cross at our Good Friday church service. Following the service we headed back to my parents for lunch - and the traditional EGG HUNT - even the baby got right into it, thanks to Auntie Ann who practiced with him yesterday! We then donned our winter coats and went on a "spring hunt" (new life). It was a walk around the area looking for signs of spring. We didn't find very many! The snow piles are still pretty high. What we did find: - tiny shoots of green grass coming up underneath the protective bows of pine trees - a few small, hearty flowers and leaves poking up through the snow - lots of MUD - people wearing sunglasses - Roll up the Rim to win cups on the ground - Did I mention all the MUD? - Puddles of melting snow - Bumble Bees - birds singing - ladybugs Wonderful reminders that, though the winter was long, spring is coming... God is Good!
