Easter Hike Video


This is my feeble attempt at making a video.  It was quickly made with my unedited photos and footage from today's hike with Dad and the girls.  Maybe sometime, if I ever have time, I will make a nicer one-but for now at least it's not just sitting on my phone forever unseen and unenjoyed :)

Most Holy Night (Good Friday)


Most Holy night, most blessed of nights
When Christ broke the chains of the darkness
God’s mighty love is stronger than death
Christ our light shines forever

Rejoice O children of the earth and holy ones of heaven above
Be glad this blessed night and join creation’s song

Rejoice and sing O mother church, the Savior’s glory shines on you
O let this holy place resound with joyful songs of praise

Let every tear be wipes away
Let every sorrow fade
For Jesus the Christ has risen from the grave

For truly it is right and just that on this night we sing with joy
To praise and thank the unseen God and Jesus Christ the son

The power of this holy night dispels the darkness of our shame
For Christ has saved us with His blood and ransomed us from death

O happy fault of Adam’s sin
Oh blessed day of grace
Which gained for us a Savior Christ the Lord
For this is the Passover feast of God 
when Christ the blessed lamb was slain
Whose holy blood has marked our door and sheltered us from death

This holy night makes all things new, our hearts restored to holiness
Wash clean of every sin and bathed in heaven’s light

How wonderful your care for us
How boundless is your love
To ransom a slave, you gave away your son

Most Holy night, most blessed of nights
When Christ broke the chains of the darkness
God’s mighty love is stronger than death
Christ our light shines forever

O happy fault of Adam’s sin

Oh blessed day of grace
Which gained for us a Savior Christ the Lord
