7 Songs for Easter Weekend

Easter Playlist for blog

Hello Everyone!

Easter week is just crazy for me, and I mean that in the very best way. Jesus is seriously the best, and He’s showing me that more and more. I love this time of contemplation and celebration for all He did. The literal Son of God died for me, He took my punishment, He took the weight of my sin and bore it on his own shoulders so I can live in perfect communion with him for eternity. I’m continually humbled and awestruck. It’s Good Friday and I put together a mini playlist with some songs for this weekend. Some are for today, to remember the Cross, some are for Sunday, when we celebrate new life and the joy of our Savior, Jesus.

  1. Royal Blood by Rend Collective

This was won upon the cross
This was written on his scars
This has made us conquerors
Nothing but Your royal blood

2. Blessed Redeemer by Casting Crowns

Blessed Redeemer, precious Redeemer
Seems now I see Him on Calvary’s tree

3. Should’ve Been Me by Citizen Way

Leaves me saying thank God
For this heart you changed
This soul you raised
My God for taking my place

4. How Can It Be by Lauren Daigle

You gave Your life
To give me mine
You say that I am free
How can it be

5. Messiah/ You’re Beautiful by Phil Wickham

I see You there hanging on a tree
You bled and then you died and then you rose again for me
Now You are sitting on Your heavenly throne
Soon we will be coming home
You’re beautiful

6. Drops In The Ocean by Hawk Nelson

If you could count the times I’d say you are forgiven
It’s more than the drops in the ocean

7.  Best News Ever by MercyMe

What if I were the One to tell you
That the work’s already been done
It’s now good news
It’s the best news ever

 

Have an amazing weekend,  celebrating Jesus!

Happy Easter + Song of the Week

Hello Everyone!

This weekend we celebrate one of best day in history. We celebrate Jesus, he is risen! Every year at Easter, I find myself taking a step back and actually thinking about the absolute awesomeness of the Resurrection. Growing up in a Christian home and going to church its easy to just think oh yeah, Jesus died for me, and now my sins are forgiven and move on in life without actually realizing how incredible that is. He took the ultimate punishment, all the pain, and not only do we not have to take the punishment anymore, but we get to live freely and talk to the ultimate creator of the universe. The most perfect, important and powerful being in existence cares about each of us, personally and intimately and we get to talk to him whenever we want to. It just blows my mind.
