<p>The verses, refrain, and the bridge are wonderfully put together.  I love the conversation that occurs throughout the song.  I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. </p>
<p>Check out her website for more:  <a href="http://www.jackiefrancois.com/index.html">http://www.jackiefrancois.com/index.html</a></p>
<p>Also, you can download the sheet music from Spirt&amp;Song.com here: <a href="http://spiritandsong.org/products/90007">http://spiritandsong.org/products/90007</a></p>
<p>Here  are the Lyrics:</p>
<p>1. A mighty King, so mocked and scorned:<br />
To save a people, lost and torn.<br />
No crown of jewels, no golden throne,<br />
but through blood and tears your glory shone.<br />
You conquered death and saved us all.<br />
You reign forever, sov‘reign God.</p>
<p>Refrain<br />
Your kingdom is glorious!<br />
Your kingdom is glorious!<br />
King of our hearts, and king of our lives,<br />
your kingdom is glorious!</p>
<p>2. O Christ the King, now glorified,<br />
our life you bought, our death you died.<br />
All kings will bow, face to the floor.<br />
You lift the lowly, exalt the poor.<br />
You conquered death and saved us all.<br />
You reign forever, sov‘reign God. (to Refrain)</p>
<p>Bridge<br />
Jesus, remember me,<br />
when you come into your kingdom. (repeat)<br />
Jesus, remember me,<br />
when you come into your kingdom. (repeat)<br />
King of our lives, and king of our hearts,<br />
your kingdom is glorious!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[We take up our cross and follow him;
we lay down our lives that we might live.
We carry the hope of Christ within;
we take up our cross and follow him.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"> [youtube]X0k9k7s-wJ0[/youtube]</p>
<p>In planning music for some events and Mass I came across this song.  I love it.  Thought it would be a good reflection.  Read and enjoy.</p>
<p>Here is the link to purchase the sheet music: <a href="http://www.spiritandsong.com/compositions/81117">http://www.spiritandsong.com/compositions/81117</a></p>
<p>Lyrics:</p>
<p>1. Behold the wood that bears our name;<br />
behold the nails that hold our sin.<br />
The tree from which salvation blooms;<br />
the death by which we&#8217;re born again.</p>
<p>Refrain<br />
We take up our cross and follow him;<br />
we lay down our lives that we might live.<br />
We carry the hope of Christ within;<br />
we take up our cross and follow him.</p>
<p>2. We embrace the sacrifice,<br />
and walk the path we cannot see.<br />
The burdens of this world made light;<br />
by blood and thorn we are redeemed. (to Refrain)</p>
<p>Bridge<br />
Lift him high, lift him high;<br />
let his name be glorified.<br />
Lift him high, lift him high;<br />
let his name be glorified.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wow, last night at the Vocation Youth Rally for the Diocese of Memphis we sang this song led by Noel Garcia.  I LOVE worship songs from Catholic writers because they get it.  Or rather, they get &#8220;Him&#8221;.  Ck it out.</p>
<p>You can go here to listen&#8230; http://www.spiritandsong.com/musicondemand/songs/66253 .</p>
<p>Sacred silence, holy ocean,<br />
gentle water, washing over me.<br />
Help me listen, Holy Spirit,<br />
come and speak to me.</p>
<p>God my Father, Christ my brother,<br />
Holy Spirit, sanctifying me.<br />
Lord, I&#8217;m sorry, please forgive me,<br />
come and set me free.</p>
<p>Sacred silence, holy ocean,<br />
gentle water, washing over me.<br />
Help me listen, Holy Spirit,<br />
come and speak to me.</p>
<p>Holy Mary, gentle mother,<br />
God&#8217;s pure vessel, praying for me.<br />
Saints and angels, all in heaven,<br />
come and be with me.</p>
<p>Sacred silence, holy ocean,<br />
gentle water, washing over me.<br />
Help me listen, Holy Spirit,<br />
come and speak to me.</p>
