Happy Monday! 

 One night, shortly before Easter, 17 years ago, I couldn’t sleep.  This “thing” kept dominating my thoughts taking away any hope of going to sleep.  I could hear it, over and over again.  I finally got up, went to the computer and wrote it all down.  I didn’t know why but I kept thinking I had to give it to Lisa.  Lisa was our Youth Director at the church we attended then.  Lisa used it as part of the Easter program.  One of the teens served as the leader, marching down the center aisle, singing one line at a time and the little kids followed and echoed each line.  The rest of the program followed. 

 I felt pretty silly when I called her and didn’t even know why I should.  The point is that sometimes when we get nudged, we need to follow through. We can be used in the smallest, and strangest, ways. 

 He is risen! 

 Pray Unceasingly!

Army of God 

( To the Army Cadence Sing-song tune) 

 

I don’t know, but I’ve been told… 

Jesus died to save our souls… 

Son of God, the precious Lamb… 

Crucified, but rose again. 

 

Born one night, no bed to lay… 

Little babe lay in the hay… 

Star so bright, a guiding light… 

Shepherds came that holy night. 

 

He grew up into a man… 

Healer, teacher, precious Lamb… 

Went among those who were lost… 

Even knowing what his cost. 

 

Many lands his voice was heard… 

Got 12 more to spread the word… 

God so loves and makes you whole… 

Eternal life when he saves your soul. 

 

There were those who feared his power… 

Brought him to the king one hour… 

Battered, broken, accused and blamed… 

Tried to shame his Holy name. 

 

Took him up, nailed to a cross… 

‘Tween two sinners who were lost.. 

Crucified to save all men… 

Gave his life to bring us in. 

 

Wrapped and buried in a tomb… 

Stones would block the Holy room… 

Three days later, stones were moved… 

As He had said, now his words proved. 

 

I now know what I’ve been told… 

Jesus died to save our souls… 

Son of God, the precious lamb… 

Crucified, but rose again!
