what a saviour...


Jesús, originally uploaded by Luis R..

Man of Sorrows! what a name
For the Son of God, Who came
Ruined sinners to reclaim.
Hallelujah! What a Saviour!

Bearing shame and scoffing rude,
In my place condemned He stood;
Sealed my pardon with His blood.
Hallelujah! What a Saviour!

Guilty, vile, and helpless we;
Spotless Lamb of God was He;
"Full atonement!" can it be?
Hallelujah! What a Saviour!

Lifted up was He to die;
"It is finished!" was His cry;
Now in heav'n exalted high.
Hallelujah! What a Saviour!

When He comes, our glorious King,
All His ransomed home to bring,
Then anew His song we'll sing:
Hallelujah! What a Saviour!

beautiful song. Indeed, what a Saviour! :)

This was my first Easter back in the States in six years... I couldn't remember how to celebrate it here. Wonderful day nonetheless!

Hey sweetie! How did you celebrate in the end?

I was sick with a cold... and unfortunately passed it on to the lady I live with, so her family couldn't come. Boy did I feel guilty. We had a nice meal together though. :)

Oh yuck! Glad there was something nice about the day though!
