What a Week It's Been

If Ever There Was a Day

If ever there was a day to admit how frail a human am I,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to know I cannot go at it alone,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to cringe at my own sin,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to cry out, "Help me!  Rescue me!",
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to run to Your open arms,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to say how much I need You,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to know I can't survive without You,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to fall on my knees and pray,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to stop.  Be still.  Sit with You,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to glory in Your Name,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to thank You for being beaten, spit at, and dying for me,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to stand in awe of You who was slain,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to look at a cross and not turn away,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to glory in Your Name,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to rejoice in the stone being rolled away,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to shout, "Alleluia!  He is risen!",
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to dance and shout for joy,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to abandon myself completely to You:  all pretense, anguish, fears,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to revel in Your grace, Your freedom, Your victory,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to know You love me, Love me, LOVE me, though I mess up,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to know You are active and present in my life,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to live as each day unto You,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to know You more fully,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to love more quickly, more fully, more unabashedly,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to declare my love for You,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to believe who You are, what You say,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to rejoice that death does not have a final word,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to know the power of Your resurrection in my life,
this is the day.

If ever there was a day to glory in Your Name,
this is the day!

This is the day! 

Alleluia!   Alleluia!  Alleluia!  Christ is risen indeed!  Alleluia!
