The Darling of Heaven

While I'm talking about music and singing, I wanted to mention this song. We sometimes sing Worthy Is the Lamb at church. The last time we sang it, the phrase "The Darling of Heaven" smacked me upside the head. I love my boys. They are my darlings. I would do anything for them, give anything to them, offer them my very life. If I had to make a choice between one of my boys and a busload of people being killed, I would choose my sons. Every time.
God had more than a busload to think about. He had the whole world. And he chose to save us over his son. His One and Only Son. His very being. His Darling Boy. Wow.

Thank you for the cross Lord
Thank you for the price You paid
Bearing all my sin and shame
In love You came
And gave amazing grace

Thank you for this love Lord
Thank you for your nail pierced hands
Washed me in Your cleansing flow
Now all I know
Your forgiveness and embrace

Worthy is the Lamb
Seated on the throne
Crown You now with many crowns
You reign victorious
High and lifted up
Jesus Son of God
Darling of Heaven crucified
Worthy is the Lamb
Worthy is the Lamb
