Renewed Silence
When it was evening, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who also was a disciple of Jesus. He went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate ordered it to be given to him. And Joseph took the body and wrapped it in a clean linen shroud and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had cut in the rock. And he rolled a great stone to the entrance of the tomb and went away. Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were there, sitting opposite the tomb.
- Matthew 27:57-61
In the Shadow of the Glorious Cross
SOJOURN CHURCH
In the shadow of the glorious cross
Compelled by grace to cast my lot
I'll discard the loss and bare your name
Forsaking all for your own fame
Your hymn of grace sung over me
Abounding forth in glorious streams
My thirst is quenched by you my Lord
Sustained am I redeemed restored!
Sustained am I redeemed restored!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
When death's dark shadow's at my feet
When I am plagued by unbelief
You place my hands into your side
By precious blood identified!
By precious blood identified!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
These crowns I've clenched with fisted hands
I cast them down before the throne
Of Christ my God the worthy lamb
Christ crucified, the Great I AM!
Christ crucified, the Great I AM!
Christ crucified, the Great I AM!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
