Reflections by Marmalade always made me think of Heaven is
our true home. I think it would be great if the Freedom House choir were to consider
singing these two songs at next years fundraiser.
The bible
passages, that fit perfectly with the songs, can be read during the
instrumental interlude.
He Ain't Heavy He's My Brother’s bible passage needs to be read during the instrumental interlude, which will overlap the last few lyrics, 'He's my brother, He ain't heavy, He's my brother, He ain't heavy'... need be sung quietly in the background to help finish the reading of the passage out to the end of the song.
Play the song and read the lyrics below.
REFLECTIONS OF MY LIFE
The changing
Of sunlight To moonlight
Reflections of my life
Oh how they fill my eyes
The greetings Of people In trouble
Reflections of my life
Oh how they fill my eyes
All my sorrow
Sad tomorrow Oh oh oh oh
Take me baaack... To my own home
All my crying
((( Ah All My Cryin )))
Feel I'm dyin dyin
Take me back… To my own home

Join one another
in following my example brothers
and carefully observe
those who walk
according to the pattern
we set for you.
For as I have often told you before
and now say again
even with tears:
Many live as enemies
of the cross of Christ.
Their end is destruction,
their god is their belly,
and their glory is in their shame.
Their minds are set on earthly things.

But our citizenship is in heaven,
and we eagerly await
a Savior from there,
the Lord Jesus Christ,
who, by the power that enables Him
to subject all things to Himself,
will transform
our lowly bodies
to be like
His glorious body.

David, this 45 album cover reminds me of your upside down, right side up reflection hat 'Jesus Saves'. Ironically, instead of a rabbit in that hat, Jesus' magic hat trick has a sheep in it, you being the sheep. This album cover's shaped like The Fish symbol of reflective waters where the fishies swim and breathe underwater, like we did in my dream. Spiritual baptism.For you are all brothers who carry each other at Freedom House.
"He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother"
The road is long
With ah many ah winding turn
That leads us to whooooo Knows where
Who knows where
But I'm strong
Strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy He's my brother
So on we go
His welfare is of my concern
No burden is heeeee To bear
We'll get there
For I know oh oh
He would not encumber me
He ain't heavy He's my brother
If I'm laden At all
I'm laden With sadness
That everyone's heart
Isn't filled with the gladness
Of Luuuuuv For one another
It's a long, long road
From which there is no return
While we're on the way to there
Why not share
And the load
Doesn't weigh me down at all
He ain't heavy He's my brother

Brothers... If someone is caught in a trespass,
you who are spiritual should restore him
with a spirit of gentleness.
But watch yourself...
or you also may be tempted.
Carry one anothers burdens...
and in this way
you will fulfill the law of Christ.
If anyone thinks he is something...
when he is nothing,
he deceives himself.
Each one should test his own work...
then he will have reason
to boast in himself alone
and not in someone else.
For each one should carry
his own load...
but the one who receives
instruction in the word
must share in all good
things
with his instructor.

Is this the Crowder song
being sung at the 2019 fundraiser? If you're quire is awesome, you should consider recording in a studio to make CD's for the Vancouver Portland area's for charity for Freedom House. Maybe have The Fish promote theses two songs above with the bible passages. Permissions would have to be granted for copyrighted songs, I think even if it's non profit for charity.
Ad-libbed Song Meaning of
Robert Plants ‘Carry Fire’
Jesus waits for His prodigal children
in hopes they cry out to Him,
just like so many wait for Him on His timing
after they come to Him.
He carries your sins
as fire in his nail-scarred hands
He was an outcast in the promise land
Being born of man, inside out, upside down.
Carry Fire
He sits and waits for you
Like so many others do
Just like they do for Him,
Just like they do for Him,
Well, so He does for you
He carries fire for you
Here in His nail-scarred hands
He bares His heart to you
If you will understand
He was a stranger here
He carries fire for you
Here in His nail-scarred hands
He bares His heart to you
If you will understand
He was a stranger here
Inside your promise land
That turned Him inside out
That turned Him inside out
And turned Him upside down
He carries fire for you
Here in His nail-scarred hands
He bares His heart to you
If you will understand
He carries fire for you
Here in His nail-scarred hands
He bares His heart to you
If you will understand
Your sins, your sins, your sins, He died for you
Your sins, your sins, your sins, He died for you
He’s reaching out for you
Across broken days
All through the gathering years
All through the gathering years
Beyond these lonely ways
He carries fire for you
Here in His nail-scarred hands
He bares His heart to you
If you will understand
Your sins, your sins, your sins, He died for you
Your sins, your sins, your sins, He died for you
He carries fire for you
Here in His nail-scarred hands
He bares His heart to you
If you will understand
Your sins, your sins, your sins, He died for you
Your sins, your sins, your sins, He died for you
Oh
oooooooh Oh oooooooh
Your sins, your sins, your sins, He died for you
Your sins, your sins, your sins, He died for you
