Last Sunday I shared a prize package giveaway for the Son of God Movie so I took a one week break from my Simple Gift Sunday regular posts, but I’m back!
When you are a writer (and I have only recently in the last year allowed myself the honor of calling myself one!) you may never know how your words or heart have touched other lives.
I have thought often of whether this Simple Gift Sunday series (which began in December 2012) was something I wanted to continue.
I love sharing my faith and struggles and utter brokeness through these posts, but being vulnerable and revealing can be a daunting task at times.
Yet I still choose each week to write the words God places on my heart.
Sometimes they are very brief and other times are filled with the angst of walking among humanity as a broken child of God, only redeemed by His great matchless love.
So this week I give you Hillsong “Man of Sorrows” a song that touches my heart every time I hear it.
Oh that rugged cross
My salvation
Where Your love poured out over me
Now my soul cries out
Hallelujah
Praise and honor unto Thee
Some of my favorite Simple Gift Easter videos are Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir “Worthy is the Lamb,” Jeremy Camp “The Healing Hand of God” and Gateway Worship “Alabaster Jar“.

By His own betrayed
The sin of man and wrath of God
Has been on Jesus laid
Beaten mocked and scorned
Bowing to the Father’s will
He took a crown of thorns
My salvation
Where Your love poured out over me
Now my soul cries out
Hallelujah
Praise and honor unto Thee
And reconcile the very ones
Who nailed Him to that tree
It is paid in full
By the precious blood
That my Jesus spilled
Has no hold on me
Whom the Son sets free
Oh is free indeed
Behold the empty tomb
Hallelujah God be praised
He’s risen from the grave
Want thrifty home ideas you can do yourself?
Thanks Marty!
Beautiful! I take it I didn’t win the movie tickets but who did? I must have missed that printing. I love your Sunday post.
God Bless
Shirley, I was out of town for several days and haven’t heard back from an email. I will let you know if I need to select another person. Thanks!
