light of the world...

Light of the world
You stepped down into darkness.



Opened my eyes, let me see.
Beauty that made this heart adore You
Hope of a life spent with You


King of all days
oh, so highly exalted
Glorious in heaven above
Humbly You came 
To the earth You created
All for love's sake became poor



Here I am to worship,
Here I am to bow down,
Here I am to say that You're my God
You're altogether lovely
All together worthy,
All together wonderful to me




appropriate lyrics from one of my favorite worship songs

Thank you, Rene, for reminding us of the real meaning of this holiday and of our lives. You sweetly share your home, your family, your art and your love with everyone around you, and I am so glad to have found you through this medium. Best wishes, love, and good health follow you and yours.

One of my favorite worship songs, too. Just stopping by to catch up a bit and to give belated wishes. The wishes are the same. Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. Wishing you a New Year filled with blessings beyond imagination.

I love that song, too. Almost as much as I love your house. Really, I want to just drive my truck across the country, show up in your driveway and sit on your front porch. Is that wierd? I mean, you wouldn't have me arrested or anything if I did that, would you?

Unknown said...

Oh my gosh, Rene....I love the photo of your house at the bottom of this post...I did one like that of our house a couple of years ago. Also, love that worship song. It used to be one of my favorites at my old church. I pray that you had a blessed holiday.
Can you please message me with your mailing address as I had promised everyone who posted for my holiday traditions a special something.
Hugs,
Mary
