Me. How in the world should i describe myself? I guess i'm your average girl-next door. Nothing wonderfully spectacular, nothing too boring too, i hope. Most of the time, i'm a pretty cheerful person, except on my 'off days' and when something brings my mood really down. Sometimes, i can be hyper, other times more reserved, depending on de situation and more importantly, the people i'm with.
=ME IN A NUTSHELL=

Tonight was one of those great nights you never want to end!! Hehe.. what am i talking about? Interactive Church! Usually i go for the 10.30 am service on Sundays, but there's also a 6pm evening Service which has less preaching and serious stuff with more focus on 'fun stuff'. Tonight, Ps Ashley's cousin, David Evans who, I think is the worship minister in Brisbane City Church came to sing! W-O-W. He has a wonderful voice - one of those ppl you think came out of the womb with a mike in hand... one of those voices that just takes your breath away...hehe.. you get the idea....
Anyways, he started of with one of those story-telling songs...you know, songs that have lyrics that tell a story. I lurve those kinda songs cause they mean so much and it's such an artistic, fun, beautiful way to tell a story. That's why i love Ray Boltz! Here's lyrics to one of my favouritest songs of his
Watch The Lamb
Words and Music: Ray Boltz
Walking on the road to Jerusalem
The time had come to sacrifice again
My two small sons they walked beside me down the road
The reason that they came was to watch the lamb
They said, Daddy, daddy what will we see there
There’s so much that we don’t understand
So I told them of Moses and Father Abraham
And then I said dear children watch the lamb
There will be so many in Jerusalem today
We must be sure this little lamb doesn’t run away
And I told them of Moses and Father Abraham
And then I said dear children watch the lamb
When we reached the city I knew something must be wrong
There were no joyful worshippers, there were no joyful worship songs
And I stood there with my children in the midst of angry men
Then I heard the crowd cry out,
Let’s crucify Him
We tried to leave the city but we could not get away
Forced to play in this drama a part I did not want to play
Why upon this day were men condemned to die
Why were we standing right here where soon they would pass by
I look and I said even now they come
The first one cried for mercy, the people gave him none
The second one was violent and he was arrogant and loud
I still can hear his angry voice screaming at the crowd
Then someone said 'There’s Jesus' and I scarce believed my eyes
A man so badly beaten He barely looked alive
Blood poured from His body from the thorns on His brow
Running down the cross and falling to the ground
I watched Him as He struggled and I watched Him when He fell
The cross came down upon His back, the crowd began to yell
In that moment I felt such agony in that moment I felt such loss
Until a Roman soldier grabbed my arm and screamed "You! Carry His cross"
At first I tried to resist him but his hand reached for his sword
And so I knelt and I took the cross from the Lord
I put it on my shoulder we started down the street
The blood that He’d been shedding was running down my cheek
They led us to Golgotha they drove nails deep in His feet and hands
On the cross I heard Him pray "Father forgive them"
Never have I seen such love in any other eyes
"Into They hands I commit My spirit" He prayed and then He died
I stood for what seemed like years lost all sense of time
Then I felt these little hands holding on to mine
My children stood there weeping and I heard the oldest say
Father please forgive us the lamb ran away
Daddy, daddy what have we seen here
There’s so much that we don’t understand
So I took them in my arms we turned and faced the cross
And I said dear children Watch the Lamb
*happy sigh*.... I still remember the first time i heard this song was 3 years ago during Aaron Ho's church's Easter play when he was performing and Ray Boltz was there to sing. I literally cried when i heard this song, and i don't think i was the only one.
Yeap.. anyway, I have to get David Evans' CD... not often you hear songs that give you goosebumps and make you just make you want to burst out and weep with joy during worship. He also song-lead us in a medley of those good old-school worship songs and hyms which somehow really get me deep into worship more than the normal Planet Shakers-like songs that are usually played in this chruch. Like 'Turn your eyes upon Jesus' and 'In His time'. Also a few more that i'm unfamiliar with, but with these kind of songs, you usually can anticipate how the melody will sound. There was one that went like 'Jesus here, Jesus near, Jesus resting, Jesus near......or something....' I can't remember the rest, but it was such a beautiful song. Must buy his CD!!
