Love Crucified, Arose
Long ago He blessed the earth
Born older than the years
And in the stall a cross He saw
Through the first of many tears
A life of homeless wandering
Cast out in sorrow's way
The Shepherd seeking for the lost
His life, the price He paid
Love crucified, arose
The Risen One in splendor
Jehovah soul Defender
Has won the victory
Love crucified, arose
And the grave became a place of hope
For the heart that sin and sorrow broke
Is beating once again
Throughout Your life You felt the weight
Of what You'd come to give
To drink for us that crimson cup
So we might really live
At last the time to love and die
The dark appointed day
That one forsaken moment
When Your Father turned His face away
Love crucified, arose
The One who lived and died for me
Was Satan's nail-pierced casualty
Now He's breathing once again
Love crucified, arose
And the grave became a place of hope
For the heart that sin and sorrow broke
Is beating once again
Love crucified, arose
The Risen One in splendor
Jehovah soul defender
Has won the victory
Love crucified, arose
And the grave became a place of hope
for the heart that sin and sorrow broke
is beating once again
Love crucified, arose
The One who lived and died for me
Was Satan's nail-pierced casualty
Now He's breathing once again
Long ago He blessed the earth
Born older than the years
And in the stall a cross He saw
Through the first of many tears
A life of homeless wandering
Cast out in sorrow's way

His life, the price He paid
Love crucified, arose

And the grave became a place of hope

When I first heard the song, I was really attracted to the melody. After getting this track, it was the whole feel that the tune had. I could just sense how the musicians must have been feeling. It really drew me into the whole mood. I mean, don't you think the music arrangement is just simply amazing. I think just the tune, in this arrangement, is enough to bring me to tears.
So I decided to know for sure what the lyrics were. It's like icing on top of a chocolate cake. These lyrics have so much meaning behind them. No, I'm not going to tell you my analysis, but yeah. This song is really worth listening to. Yeah. It's a really really touching song.
Today I learned about how easy it is for someone to lose their loved ones. Three siblings I know, from my church, has lost their older sister yesterday because she died in a car accident. And somehow, it just really made me so sad. I don't know this sister of theirs, but somehow I just felt so burdened with their lost. You know people say, treasure each living moment. It never hit me till then. At that moment, I truly understood what it meant. Who would have expected to get into a car accident? And even worst, die because of the car accident?
Each living moment is really through the grace of God. And ultimately, when our time on this earth is done, who is going to be able to stop Him? So yeah. I learnt how to treasure the times that I am alive, for being healthy, for being able to move about on my own, etc.
Life is just so fragile. Besides treasuring your own life, treasure the lives of those loved ones around you. Don't live to regret not forgiving/not making things right/showing how much you love, etc, that person.
I really hope that family is feeling better. Pray that the Holy Spirit will be there to comfort them.

Oh a totally different note, today my psychology teacher was telling our class she had this student, year 11, who was looking for someone to teach her general maths(apparently it's supposed to be easy). So anyway, she approached me. I'm still not very sure if I should teach that girl. I don't know for sure if I can teach. Like I may be able to do the math, but I may not be able to explain. And apparently, that girl is even willing to pay me and stuff. Hmm, shall see how it goes on Thursday. I'm going to be meeting her and then I'll see if she still wants me to teach.. Now to just confirm if I am willing to take this up.
