This is a collection of hymns I liked to listen to while getting ready for work. I would not just listen but I would also sing along. Many of these songs take me back to my childhood and help me to be mindful of the most important relationship of my life. ~ ~ ~ JESUS is LORD! ~ ~ ~ Written for: "The Soundtrack of Your Life" Word Count: 55 Words |
He was wounded for our transgressions. He was bruised for our iniquity. Surely He's borne our sorrows And by His stripes we are healed. This is my first time participating in "The Soundtrack of Your Life" . I had a dickens of a time getting the YouTube video to load. I discovered I could not use the link generated by the share button. I had to open the video in a new browser window and copy the web address instead.I ran into some problems before I even got to that part of the process. I knew the song I wanted to use here. I did not know that there is a much more elaborate musical arrangement of it that does not sound at all like the song I sing. It took me forever to sift through all the YouTube videos to find this rendition. Even it is not what I learned to sing. I guess there is more to this song than I ever knew. The words we sang in church are the ones I have in italics below the video. I did not care for the more elaborate versions. This simple version that mirrors what I sing blesses me and draws me quickly into worship. Another thing I discovered online today is that I use the word iniquity whereas all the lyrics I found online use the plural form of the word (iniquities). Rev. William McCrae (above) might use the singular as I do. I could not tell for sure. Iniquity rather than iniquities is significant to me because of something I learned along the way. Transgressions were our sins. Iniquity was our sinfulness. I will continue to sing iniquity because of the reminder it gives me. There was one other video that had the song presented in the way I knew. In the end I chose Rev. McCrae. The other video did something I do. I alternate as I sing between our transgressions and my transgressions; our iniquity and my iniquity. Both pronouns are appropriate and remind me of Christ's sacrifice for me, personally and, alternately, His sacrifice for the church as a whole. We are one in Him. ~ ~ ~ JESUS is LORD! ~ ~ ~ Word Count: 360 Words |
