One of the blessings of living in Eugene is having a wonderful performing arts center. Last night featured Handel’s Messiah with the Eugene Symphony and Symphony Chorus along with 4 soloists. When the chorus sang the Hallelujah chorus it felt like a small foretaste of heaven. December’s Seasonal Delights Series. Wreath is from my front door. At night it lights up.
November’s Songs of Thanks and Praise Series. Today’s song is “Living Hope”, written in 2018 by Phil Wickham. Below is one of the verses and the chorus.
How great the chasm that lay between us
How high the mountain I could not climb
In desperation, I turned to heaven
And spoke Your name into the night
Then through the darkness, Your loving kindness
Tore through the shadows of my soul
The work is finished, the end is written
Jesus Christ, my living hope.
Hallelujah, praise the One who set me free
Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain
There’s salvation in Your name
Jesus Christ, my living hope
Hallelujah, praise the One who set me free
Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me
You have broken every chain
There’s salvation in Your name
Jesus Christ, my living hope.
