Music Monday

I was visiting my mother last week and they sang this song at her church. I'd never heard it before but the lyrics really spoke to me.  I wanted to share it with you today so I searched YouTube and found it sung by Angelina (a singer my 4th graders love).




Here are the lyrics -  There's some variation from the video but both are powerful.

SERVANT SONG 

by Donna Marie McGargill, OSM

1. What do you want of me, Lord? Where do you want me to serve you? Where can I sing your praises. I am your song.

REFRAIN: 1. Jesus, Jesus, you are the Lord. Jesus, Jesus, you are the way. 2. Jesus, Jesus, you are my Lord. Jesus, Jesus, you are the way. 3. Jesus, Jesus, be warmth of my heart. Jesus, Jesus, you are the way. 4. Jesus, Jesus, you are my light. Jesus, Jesus, you are the way.

2. I hear you call my name, Lord, and I am moved within me. Your Spirit stirs my deepest self. Sing your songs in me. (REFRAIN 2)

3. Above, below, and around me. Before, behind and all through me, your Spirit burns deep within me. Fire my life with your love. (REFRAIN 3)

4. You are the light in my darkness. You are my strength when I'm weary. You give me sight when I'm blinded. Come see for me. (REFRAIN 4)

Happy Independence Day

Happy Mother's Day??? A quick poll

I'm looking for some opinions today.

You know how women are always joking about how things would be different if men experienced them?

Well my husband found a Mother's Day card that loosely reflected that sentiment. He thought it was hilarious. I'm wondering if it's really meant as a compliment or a thinly-veiled dig.

The caption inside says - It's not easy being a mother. If it were, fathers would do it.


So what do you think?

Did the designer intend it as a compliment or not?
