Lovely Christ

I was given a rather unexpected invitation to record with a friend last week. He has several songs he has recorded, but he asked that I assist on this one in particular. Listen to the song and you just may hear my voice in the background (it's quite high, especially if you're familiar with my voice)! Andrew has several other songs on his Xanga that you can listen to as well.

~Lovely Christ~
You are the image of the invisible God.
For by You and through You and for You
All things were created.
And You are before all things and in You
All things hold together.

Lovely Christ
Magnificent Son of God.
Lovely Christ
The spotless, sweet Lamb of God.
Lovely Christ
Our righteousness before God.
Lovely Christ
My greatest, fairest, dearest Treasure.

You are the radiance of the glory of God,
And the exact imprint of His
Preeminent nature.
And You uphold all things by the word
Of Your mighty power.

Lovely Christ
Supreme over everything.
Lovely Christ
Let angels bow down and sing.
Lovely Christ
The sovereign ruler and King
Lovely Christ
My greatest, fairest, dearest Treasure.

Let me hear Your voice
For Your voice is sweet, sweeter than honey.
Let me see Your face
For Your face is lovely, lovely, lovely.

Lovely Christ
The Spirit's passion to praise.
Lovely Christ
Unsearchable in Your ways.
Lovely Christ
You never cease to amaze.

Lovely Christ
Transcendent, perfect, and sure.
Lovely Christ
Bridegroom of sinners made pure.
Lovely Christ
Your faithfulness will endure.
Lovely Christ
My true and never-failing Friend.

Ah-HA! I think I have found your real name. . .

Beautiful song, you can totally hear your voice in the background. Rather Eowen singing at the burial. I like it!

At the risk of being tracked down by stalkers, my cell phone # is 217-304-7976. Call me sometime tomorrow and we'll make plans to meet up! Later afternoon or evening would probably be best for us. Hope your boyfriend can come, too. I know Josh would like to meet him.
