[Because He died, we live]


Go on up to the mountain of mercy,
To the crimson perpetual tide.
Kneel down on the shore,
Be thirsty no more,
Go under and be purified.

Follow Christ to the Holy Mountain,
Sinner, sorry and wrecked by the fall,
Cleanse your heart and your soul.
In the fountain that flows,
For you and for me and for all

At the wonderful tragic mysterious tree,
On that beautiful scandalous night you and me,
Were atoned by His blood and forever washed white,
On that beautiful scandalous night.

-Bob Bennett

Wow, Brit.

First off, this picture is beautiful. Love the silhouette of the cross.

Second off, those are beautiful words. I'm supposing it is a song - that last line gets me: "that beautiful scandalous night." So true. :)

ps: I'm glad I'm here with you. :D it's been grand fun.
