Up from the Grave He Arose!

Posted in Christian Life, and Photography

Up From the Grave He Arose by Robert Lowry, 1826-1899 Low in the grave he lay, Jesus my Savior, waiting the coming day, Jesus my Lord! Up from the grave he arose; with a mighty triumph o’er his foes; he arose a victor from the dark domain, and he lives forever, with his saints to reign. He arose! He arose! Hallelujah! Christ arose! Vainly they watch his bed, Jesus my Savior, vainly they seal the dead, Jesus my Lord! Up from the grave he arose; with a mighty triumph o’er his foes; he arose a victor from the dark domain,…

The Old Rugged Cross

Posted in Christian Life, and Photography

The Old Rugged Cross by George Bennard (1873-1958) On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross, the emblem of suffering and shame; and I love that old cross where the dearest and best for a world of lost sinners was slain. So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross, till my trophies at last I lay down; I will cling to the old rugged cross, and exchange it some day for a crown.

Mary had probably heard about the Messiah’s coming all of her life, but never, even in her wildest dreams, could she have imagined that she would be the mother of the Messiah. Even though she was, most likely, overwhelmed by the thought of giving birth as an unwed mother and being the mother of the Savior of her people, she gracefully accepted the Lord’s will for her…

O Holy Night

Posted in Christian Life, and Holidays

O Holy Night is one of my favorite CHRISTmas songs. It doesn’t focus on CHRISTmas, but rather, it focuses on the awe and wonder of the Christ child being born. Before the Messiah was born, there was much talk about when He would come and how He would come. He was born simply, yet it did great things. Now, we sit here, once again, waiting for His return, His second coming. We, once again, have the sense of anticipation and wonder as we think about how great things will be when we one day join Him in eternal paradise. As…
