Untitled Hymn by Chris Rice
Weak and wounded sinner
Lost and left to die
O, raise your head, for love is passing by
Come to Jesus
Come to Jesus
Come to Jesus and live!
Now your burden's lifted
And carried far away
And precious blood has washed away the stain, so
Sing to Jesus
Sing to Jesus
Sing to Jesus and live!
And like a newborn baby
Don't be afraid to crawl
And remember when you walk
Sometimes we fall...so
Fall on Jesus
Fall on Jesus
Fall on Jesus and live!
Sometimes the way is lonely
And steep and filled with pain
So if your sky is dark and pours the rain, then
Cry to Jesus
Cry to Jesus
Cry to Jesus and live!
O, and when the love spills over
And music fills the night
And when you can't contain your joy inside, then
Dance for Jesus
Dance for Jesus
Dance for Jesus and live!
And with your final heartbeat
Kiss the world goodbye
Then go in peace, and laugh on Glory's side, and
Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus and live!
This song has been ringing in my mind since Tuesday. Well, actually just verses 3 and 4. Fall on Jesus and Cry to Jesus.
Life is hard sometimes. Life doesn’t make sense sometimes. Life isn’t fair.
But when looked at through the Cross, life is so much more bearable. Everything has a purpose. Life isn’t meaningless. Life isn’t random. And thus pain isn’t meaningless. And pain isn’t random.
In every situation, in joy and in heartache, Jesus will be glorified.
Come to Jesus.
Sing to Jesus.
Fall on Jesus.
Cry to Jesus.
Dance for Jesus.
Fly to Jesus.
Beautiful! He can be sung to. He can be falled on. He can be cried to. He can be danced for.
I love being held by such an amazing Savior. Such peace and security.
Do you know this joy? Do you know such peace? Do you know His love?

She met a guy named Jesse Irwin who worked at the Parable and played guitar for the Grace Church college group when she returned from Northwestern College in Minnesota. She fell for him and they married in 1997. Her family lives in Long Beach, Ca and love hanging out at the bay all summer.

Thank you, Kate. You always are so transparent with us. We are all so vulnerable to sadness and heartache of this world! The mystery to me is how God can turn it into joy and the love spills over! Love you, Peggy
Kate,
Thank you for this hymn - I first heard it when we lost my mother-in-law and when I would get to the verse of "fly to Jesus" - I would cry.
It tells so simply our life with the Lord -
