It's been a while...

It has been a while since I last blogged.

The culture of TSA is to always be active, to be an activist for TSA and on behalf of God, but I have learnt that the energy and mission in being an activist, comes from being first a disciple and worshipper of God’s greatness. We are activist for, disciples of, and children born of the Cross.

As Salvos we need to be worshippers.

I enjoy worship songs from the Vineyard tribes, particularly Canadian and those from the UK. I came across the lyrics to a newly released CD entitled Sweetly Broken, and have included the title track below...

To the cross I look, to the cross I cling
Of it’s suffering I do drink
Of it’s work I do sing.

For on it my Saviour, both bruised and crushed
Showed that God is love
And God is just

At the cross You beckon me
You draw me gently to my knees,
And I am
Lost for words, so lost in love,
I am sweetly broken, wholly surrendered

What a priceless gift, undeserving life
Have I been given
Through Christ crucified

You’ve called me out of death
You’ve called me into life
And I was under Your wrath
Now through the cross I’m reconciled

At the cross You beckon me
You draw me gently to my knees,
And I am
Lost for words, so lost in love,
I am
sweetly broken, wholly surrendered
