Good Friday Gratitude To Settlers: Especially British and Dutch

Good Friday Gratitude to Settlers
Columbus gave it lip service He loved the Virgin Mary Almost knew Jesus Christ Could not have had the Holy Spirit Fire Today, or any hour of night and day, Brian Houston’s Ministry covers the Globe With youth singing out heart and soul To Christ, though disguised in flesh, Creator Himself, always meant to bring us closer As I sing daily with Brooke Ligertwood, “What a Beautiful Name It Is, The Name of Jesus.” Now, Rodney, that brother Knows the Holy Spirit (Rodney Howard-Browne) Missionary to America in 1984 Started holy fires in Brownsville, Toronto Airport, the Garden Who would have known it in 1492 and 1652? God is still on the throne Knew it when he prepared Africa for Howard-Browne It is always right to give thanks (If only to see how God sees) More: gratitude reshapes history; Saved me tons in therapy We love forgiveness, and from Jesus, But we justify NOT forgiving "our favorite enemy!" That's the big picture ... now the small picture: My mother bleeds; your sisters & families bleed And our grand-daddies slaved away on ships and plantations And some were called the worst names … (And what do you think our sins did to Jesus?) God is always urging we sing with Brian, Brooke, Rodney, and Hillsong What a beautiful Name It Is The name of Jesus Christ My King Nothing can stand against This powerful Name is your shield and buckler (It has been my Healer, more than any teacher or doctor) Never leave home (or your marriage) without Jesus Our Loving Abba-Father Who turns every bad day into Good Friday He who spoke beauties into life Dies daily to save His creatures, even this selfish man, For the Fire of Spirit inside each man and woman Must be unleashed for a New Heaven-New Earth ... Jesus was willing to count on me. And you?
