Agnus Dei

Happy Anniversary

When Jesus finally came on the scene, we would expect an entrance worthy of a superhero movie, but that is not what happened. In John 1:29, John the Baptist says “Behold,the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.” A lamb..THE lamb…a gentle creature with little to no desire to fight. He is the Agnus Dei, the “Lamb of God.”  

Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!E'en though it be a cross that raiseth me;Still all my song shall be nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee! Or if on joyful wing, cleaving the sky, Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upwards I fly, Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee, Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!
