THE GLORY - AVALON

With Easter being this Sunday I thought I would post the lyrics to my favorite song that relates to Easter


The song is "The Glory" by - AVALON


In the solitary moment of His birth

On this barren dusty land

All of heaven kissed the face of the earth

With a miracle of love

God became a man

But He was sent away to draw His final breath

When He was only thirty-three

And in the shame of dying a criminal's death

He cleansed an angry world

And in His suffering I see


(chorus)
The glory of the blood

The beauty of the body

That was broken for our forgiveness

The glory of His perfect love

Is the heart of the story

The glory of the blood



Now I have tried to find salvation on my own

In a search for something real

But there's a guilty heart inside this flesh and bone

Fall upon His grace

And I begin to feel


chorus


And when I close my eyes I can see Him hanging there

Oh the precious wounded Lamb of God

All the majesty in this world cannot compare to the glory

The beauty of the body

That was broken for our forgiveness


chorus


But He was sent away to draw His final breath

When He was only thirty-three

VEGAS - Sara Bareilles

Gonna sell my car and go to Vegas
'Cause somebody told me
That's where dreams would be
Gonna sell my car and go to Vegas
Finally see my name upon the Palace marquis

Gonna quit my job and move to New York
'Cause somebody told me that's where
Dreamers should go
Gonna quit my job and move to New York
And tattoo my body with every Broadway show.

Listen up now honey, you're gonna be sorry
Can't get out from under a sky that is falling
And you say
No fame no money I'm nobody
The way I'm running has sure got me down
On my knees.
But next stop, Vegas please.
Gotta get to Vegas
Can you take me to Vegas?

Gonna sell my house and cross the border
'Cause somebody told me dreams live in Mexico
Gonna sell my house I got to lose ten pounds
And cross the border
And make sweet love upon the white sandy shore.

Listen up now honey, you're gonna be sorry
Can't get out from under a sky that is falling
And you say
No fame no money I'm nobody
The way I'm running has sure got me down
On my knees.
But next stop, Vegas please.

It's always just around the corner or you're
On your way to somewhere
That is bigger or better...
If you could only get there
It's never your fault you can't start your
Own winning streak
But I'd hate to lose you to the fortune you seek

I'm gonna lose my mind and sail the ocean.
'Cause somebody told me there were
Cherry blue skies
I'm gonna fix my mind with a final destination
And have a deep sleep upon a sweet dream
I'll never realize...no

Listen up now honey, you're gonna be sorry
Can't get out from under a sky that is falling
And you say
No fame no money I'm nobody
The way I'm running has sure got me down
On my knees.
Next stop, Vegas please.
Can you take me to Vegas?

SNOW

Im back at school now but something so EXCITING happened on Saturday while I was still at home.  I woke up to snow falling.  It was so weird because on Friday night it was actual kinda hot and it got cold enough during the night for snow to fall in the morning.  It was soooo much fun and it snowed a lot for a little while but then as soon as the sun came out it all melted away but it was FUN while it lasted.  Here's some pics!!

SPRING BREAK

If you want to know what the meaning of a boring Spring Break, ask me and I will tell you about mine. I came home for the whole week and I haven't done much more than just sit at the house. Although it has been good overall because I haven't seen my family or been home at all since December so it has been good. IMPACT has traveled so much and I have been so busy with school that I haven't been able to come home. So it has been good to just stay at home and rest and spend time with family.

Last night I went with Josh and Stephanie to their church to see Steph do a praise dance with her friend Nancy. It was really cool!!

I've been able to just sit and relax and go spend time with Macey Belle. She is my little 1 and 1/2 year old cousin whom I LOVE to death!! She is so precious!!!! I get to spend time with the parents too which is always nice since I don't see them very much.

A couple of weeks ago Mama broke her ankle and she still has a big boot thing on it. So I've been able to help her out a little bit while I've been here.

Today I went and hung out with Miles and John Michael at the Chinese place my brother is managing. Then John Michael and I practiced the song we're doing for Easter.

So I guess it hasn't been such a boring Spring Break after all. There has been lots of family, food, relaxation and good food. There's nothing boring about that.

I've begun to ramble with this so I'm gonna hush now.

Before I left school I made a new photo album with what I call the Best of Jan & Feb 2008. Below is a link for that album.

God Bless!!
