Of the reason He died

Good Friday. Thank You, Jesus. For the power of the cross. For the perfect sacrifice. For the pain you bore, for the suffering you endured. For dying.

Easter. Thank You, Jesus. For conquering sin. For defeating death. For the power of Your resurrection. Thank You, Jesus, for your gift of life.

BRING ME HOME
Joshua Yeoh

How I’ve wandered, how I’ve strayed
From the path that You laid down
Time and time again
I’ve lost sight of, focused my eyes on
My circumstances, searching for my answers
When all I really needed to do
Was open up my eyes to see
That You were always there
Ready to

Bring me back
Bring me near to the grace that forgives
And the love that finds me here
Bring me home
Bring me close to Your heart
Because I never want to be apart again


Promises broken, words that were spoken
That wounded Your heart
Time and time again
I’d forgotten what it meant to
Be a child, wrapped within Your arms
But all I really needed to do
Was open up my eyes to see
That You were always there
Ready to

I was so lost, lost in my sin
Then Your love entered in
And called me by my name
Now here I am, a broken man
I’m down on my knees
Crying, crying out
