We chose this song because it depicts the aspects of Christ's death. The song is somber which sets the mood for the death of Jesus. We really like the verse "Were you there when they nailed Him to the tree?" because it shows the reality of what he went through.

We chose the song "Away In a Manger" because it illustrates all the aspects of the birth of Jesus. It describes the setting of the stable and all the animals that were there to welcome Jesus into the world. "The cattle are lowing, The poor baby wakes, But little Lord Jesus, No crying He makes". These verses represent how even when Jesus was just born, he had a love for everything.

Loving and Forgiving is a great song for the Lenten season. It teaches us that God will always present in our lives. We can learn from his sacrifice of dying on the cross, that he will never stop loving us. "God forgives us all our sins, healing those who live in pain;" We really like this verse because ultimately God died for the sake of our sins.

This song represents how anytime we are in search for anything in our lives, we can call upon God to help find it. Even when we are in times of suffering God is there to help satisfy our needs.

Spirit Break Out

This song reveals how important the Holy Spirit is in our lives. We should always pray to God but we should also make time to pray to the Holy Spirit and ask them for guidance and protection. When the song says "Heaven come down" we feel like it is referring to the Holy Spirit coming down to safeguard Gods children.
