You Shall Call His Name Jesus
Wednesday, January 1st, 2014
“For He will save His people from their sins.”
On the 8th day of Christmas we remember the Circumcision and Name of Jesus.
Jesus! Name of priceless worth
To the fallen sons of earth,
For the promise that it gave,
“Jesus shall His people save.”
Jesus! Name of mercy mild,
Given to the holy Child
When the cup of human woe
First He tasted here below.
Jesus! Name of wondrous love,
Name all other names above,
Unto which must ev’ry knee
Bow in deep humility.
Jesus! Name decreed of old,
To the maiden mother told,
Kneeling in her lowly cell,
By the angel Gabriel.
Jesus! Only name that’s giv’n
Under all the mighty heav’n
Whereby those to sin enslaved,
Burst their fetters and are saved.
Jesus! Name of wondrous love,
Human name of God above;
Pleading only this, we flee,
Helpless, 0 our God, to Thee.
(LSB 900)
Les Ornaments
Monday, December 30th, 2013
It’s still Christmas so I’m going to write about Christmas ornaments cuz I like them. Here are some of my favorite ornaments.
I have a tradition of collecting ornaments from around the world. Not sure if that’s what you’d call it, but when I travel to a foreign country I try to find an ornament there. Or if I know someone going I drop a HUGE subtle hint that they must might want to find one for me.
