Thank you, Lord!  And guess what?!  I'm alive with Him! :boogie:

PTL!  Thanks for sharing this, FL! :thumbsup: 
I really like Don Francisco - even in the 80's (I actually had record albums, but the cursed Dog ate most of them)!

Grace & Peace, John :HeartThrob:

You are welcome John. I trust your cursed dog will be enhanced by its selection of food.  :laughing7:

Hopeful: We are indeed alive with Him.

Hey, those record albums are actually starting to be worth something so hang on to them if you have any left!  I only have one- an old Keith Green album.   :HeartThrob:

My 20 year old son and I both like Led Zeppelin. He paid about 15 bucks for a Led album at a 2nd hand store. I went home this summer and found I still had a bunch of albums from the 60's and 70's but none of them were worth any money....at least I don't think they are. Some of the kids buy the albums because of the cover. They put them on their walls and don't really want the album. I think I have a few Keith Green albums around. Are they worth anything?

I can't remember where I read that albums were worth something...  I'll have to research it!

My Wife's Dog thought they were really worth something too! :laughing7:

I can't imagine what an album must taste like!   :grin:  But yet, even as I type I am reminded of a taste...   :dontknow:  Maybe I ate one once, too!   :trampoline:  I was a really weird kid...

The gates and doors were barred
And all the windows fastened down
I spent the night in sleeplessness
And rose at every sound
Half in hopeless sorrow
And half in fear the day
Would find the soldiers breakin' through
To drag us all away

And just before the sunrise
I heard something at the wall
The gate began to rattle
And a voice began to call
I hurried to the window
Looked down into the street
Expecting swords and torches
And the sound of soldiers' feet

But there was no one there but Mary
So I went down to let her in
John stood there beside me
As she told me where she'd been
She said they might have moved Him in the night
And none of us knows where
The stone's been rolled away
And now His body isn't there

We both ran toward the garden
Then John ran on ahead
We found the stone and empty tomb
Just the way that Mary said
But the winding sheet they wrapped Him in
Was just an empty shell
And how or where they'd taken Him
Was more than I could tell

Oh something strange had happened there
Just what I did not know
John believed a miracle
But I just turned to go
Circumstance and speculation
Couldn't lift me very high
'Cause I'd seen them crucify him
Then I saw him die

Back inside the house again
The guilt and anguish came
Everything I'd promised Him
Just added to my shame
When at last it came to choices
I denied I knew His name
And even if He was alive
It wouldn't be the same

But suddenly the air was filled
With a strange and sweet perfume
Light that came from everywhere
Drove the shadows from the room
And Jesus stood before me
With his arms held open wide
And I fell down on my knees
And I just clung to Him and cried

Then He raised me to my feet
And as I looked into His eyes
The love was shining out from Him
Like sunlight from the skies
Guilt in my confusion
Dissappeared in sweet release
And every fear I'd ever had
Just melted into peace

He's alive yes He's alive
Yes He's alive and I'm forgiven
Heaven's gates are open wide
He's alive yes He's alive
Oh He's alive and I'm forgiven
Heaven's gates are open wide
He's alive yes He's alive
Hallelujah He's alive
He's alive and I'm forgiven
Heaven's gates are open wide
He's alive He's alive He's alive

Ray Boltz has this song on his album. Gives you goose bumbs. I will have to check out the other versions.
