Lead me to the cross
Where Your love poured out
Bring me to my knees
Lord I lay me down
Rid me of myself
I belong to You
Oh, lead me, lead me to the cross

Advent

Do you hear what I hear?

Said the night wind to the little lamb
Do you see what I see?
(Do you see what I see?)
Way up in the sky, little lamb
Do you see what I see?
(Do you see what I see?)
A star, a star, dancing in the night
With a tail as big as a kite

These lyrics connect to Advent because the use of asking do you hear what I hear describes the talks of Jesus being born. The star dancing in the night is describing that Jesus is a star about to be born and the big tail represents his future being very big and important.

Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o’er the plains,
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains.

Holy Week

Alone in my sorrow and dead in my sin
Lost without hope with no place to begin
Your love Made a way to let mercy come in
When death was arrested and my life began

These lyrics connect to Holy Week because when Jesus was sentenced to death and died we realized that Jesus was the savior of everything and he was the true mercy for all of us. All of our lives had a new meaning after he died for our sins. He wants us to live like he would. That's why we all have a new beginning.
