Who Will Call Him King of Kings?

I LOVE this song, written and first sung by Sandi Patty way back in… well, a long time ago! I especially love it for Easter, and thus I’ve posted it as my “Happy Easter” to you all. I put the lyrics first, the “video” second, since the latter is not a video, but a photo of her with the audio.

In cold despair
They’d laid Him in the tomb
The body of their Master fair
Third morning came
As they returned to pray
Light was shining everywhere
But Jesus’ body was not there

And as they gazed at an empty grave
The earth around began to shake
And they were so afraid
But voices of angels filled the air
Their shouts proclaimed “He is not here”
And you could hear them say

Who will call Him King of kings
Who will call Him Lord of lords
Who will call Him Prince of Peace
Such a wonderful counselor, Mighty God
Who will call Him King

Their spirits soared
As fear was turned to joy
Standing there before their eyes
Jesus clothed in radiant white

And with a voice they’d heard before
He told them “Go and tell the world that I’m alive”
They ran as fast as feet could fly
“The Lord is risen” was their cry
And you could hear them say

We will call Him King of kings
We Will call Him Lord of lords
We will call Him Prince of Peace
Such a wonderful counselor, Mighty God

Just like He said
He is risen from the dead
And the people say

I will call Him King of kings
I will call Him Lord of lords
I will call Him Prince of Peace
Such a wonderful counselor, Mighty God
I will call Him King
I will call Him King
I will call Him King

Amazing Love

This is my Easter Greeting for for my readers.

I found it on You Tube, uploaded by on Apr 17, 2008. Video from The Passion of the Christ, the song You are My King, written by Chris Tomlin,  the singer, Candi Pearson.

This presentation makes me think of all that He did, and just how amazing His love is. I cannot watch it without crying.

Silly Sheep

The Bible often refers to God’s people as sheep. Jesus, asking Peter if he loved Him, told him to “Feed my sheep”.  The psalmist places himself in the position of a sheep when he claims the Lord as his shepherd. Jesus, Himself, in John 10 calls himself the Good Shepherd, who lays down His life for the sheep.

If you know anything at all about sheep, you must know they are renowned for being stupid and flighty. They tend to be herd bound, will drink bad water if they find it, inexplicably leave good pasture to feed on weeds… And they are very fearful. Of almost everything.

Well, the following video serves as a great visual for just how fearful they are of things that don’t warrant any fear whatsoever (much like human beings) and how they will let habit, and something that moves in the right ways drive them hither and yon (or just keep them in the barnyard), regardless of whether that something has any real power over them.

So maybe the following is not only a great visual aid, but a wonderful metaphor as well.

With that I present… Champis the swedish rabbit, who has learned to herd sheep from watching the trained sheepdogs. In fact, a sheep dog trainer says the rabbit does it better than most dogs!
