“Beautiful, Scandalous Night” (a song for Good Friday)

Category: Uncategorized — dryvetyme @ 11:26

Go on up to the mountain of mercy
To the crimson perpetual tide
Kneel down on the shore
Be thirsty no more
Go under and be purified

Follow Christ to the holy mountain
Sinner, sorry and wrecked by the fall
Cleanse your heart and soul
In the fountain that flows
For you & for me & for all

At the wonderful tragic mysterious tree
On that beautiful scandalous night you and me
Were atoned by His blood and forever washed white
On that beautiful scandalous night

Grit That I Can’t Remove (a song for Maundy Thursday)

Category: Uncategorized — dryvetyme @ 23:36

Sunbaked skin
Cracked and bruised
from many miles
of walking
from many miles
of just living.

They aren’t pretty
Not even close
but they are
still mine
and still you
say come
and still you
say come.

I don’t know why
I can’t figure you out.
You say that my feet don’t matter,
and it’s my heart that does,
though my beliefs have gone south.
Just approach.

Proof that indie rock snobs DO have a sense of humor….

Straight from the lovely people at Pitchfork Media, we have the ultimate indie rocker/folk singer version of PUNK’D! And the best part is — it’s Pitchfork that gets punk’d. It’s wonderful. Read through the first article, then the second, and then laugh along with me!

Palm Sunday

Palm Sunday:
April 9th, 2006

Psalm 118:1-2, 19-29
Mark 11:1-11
John 12:12-16

The Triumphal Entry of Jesus Into Jerusalem

Palm Sunday represents a day that is both simple and complex to celebrate in the Lenten calendar. It is easy to focus on how Jesus entered Jerusalem on the back of a donkey as people threw down their cloaks and some palm branches for their Messiah to travel upon, but it quite difficult for us to interpret and/or understand how the mood, tone, and actions of the people degenerated so quickly over the course of the upcoming week. I feel that such an intense confusion is especially true regarding those people who had been “religiously” following Jesus as his disciples, because, of all people, they should have stayed with/by Jesus during the upcoming Week of Hell (though this week’s official name is “Holy Week”). Yes, I do realize that the people’s forsaking of Jesus in His hour of need was prophesied, but it still doesn’t make sense why it had to happen. Maybe it just goes to show how fleeting human loyalties really are, and, if so, that’s a rather telling condemnation upon human nature.

The Hammer Falls

Category: Uncategorized — dryvetyme @ 16:19




Personal politics aside, especially regarding how you see/view/partake in the US political spectrum, this man’s resignation is news in general.

However, if you’d like to be a bit partisan today (or maybe you’re just a proponent of ethical behavior from our elected officials), join me in celebrating as The Hammer leaves the toolbox and gets shoved in the junk drawer.

And yes, I realize how biased that last sentence sounds. So, if you’re offended, just indict me.

Peace.
