This morning I decided to turn on my iTunes while getting ready to go to church.
Randomly, I played a song from a Hillsong album that I had all along in my iTunes but never really paid any attention to it.

Among the songs in the album was "At the Cross".

I was immediately struck when I heard the song.

I felt it was so appropriate because it provided a timely reminder about Jesus' death on the cross and how all too often we forget about it once Good Friday is over.
It also reminded me that going to church isn't because its a routine or because my parents want me to go.

The simple fact that Jesus died for me never fails to humble me, and bring a tear to my eye.

I hope the lyrics of the song touches you as much as it touched me.

At The Cross

Oh Lord You’ve searched me,

You know my way;
Even when I fail You,
I know You love me.
Your holy presence
Surrounding me
In every season,
I know You love me;
I know You love me.

At the cross I bow my knee,
Where Your blood was shed for me,
There’s no greater love than this.
You have overcome the grave,
Your glory fills the highest place,
What can separate me now?

You go before me,
You shield my way,
Your hand upholds me;
I know You love me.
And when the earth fades,
Falls from my eyes,
And You stand before me,
I know You love me;
I know You love me.

You tore the veil, You made a way
When You said that it is done.
