It was yet another Sunday that I missed due to illness. Daniel needed a breathing treatment at 4 a.m. and I’ve been fighting headaches all weekend due to the weather fluctuations. (We had a pretty gnarly storm cell pass over us today that had hail, pouring rain, thunder, and lightning.) As I was searching the web for something, I found this one. It’s one that I’ve heard on KLOVE<\/a> a number of times and it is simple enough that it works for Lent.<\/p>\n

Weak and wounded sinner
\nLost and left to die
\nO, raise your head, for Love is passing by
\nCome to Jesus
\nCome to Jesus
\nCome to Jesus and live!<\/p>\n

Now your burden’s lifted
\nAnd carried far away
\nAnd precious blood has washed away the stain…so
\nSing to Jesus
\nSing to Jesus
\nSing to Jesus and live!<\/p>\n

And like a newborn baby
\nDon’t be afraid to crawl
\nAnd remember when you walk, sometimes we fall…so
\nFall on Jesus
\nFall on Jesus
\nFall on Jesus and live!<\/p>\n

Sometimes the way is lonely
\nAnd steep and filled with pain
\nSo if your sky is dark and pours the rain…then
\nCry to Jesus
\nCry to Jesus
\nCry to Jesus and live!<\/p>\n

O, and when the love spills over
\nAnd music fills the night
\nAnd when you can’t contain your joy inside…then
\nDance for Jesus
\nDance for Jesus
\nDance for Jesus and live!<\/p>\n

And with your final heartbeat
\nKiss the world goodbye
\nThen go in peace, and laugh on glory’s side…and
\nFly to Jesus
\nFly to Jesus
\nFly to Jesus and live!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It took some doing to find a YouTube<\/a> video that wasn’t dippy for this one.<\/p>\n
