I mentioned at the funeral that my mom was a 'Jack of All Trades'.
I wasn't lying...but I left out one of her talents...
she wrote a song.
Well she wrote the words and the melody and then I believe she worked with a friend compose it.
My sister-in-law sang it at the funeral.
Its beautiful.
The week after the funeral I received this beautiful piece in the mail.
No enclosure card...I do not know who it is from.
I wish so that I could say thank you.
It will be treasured I can assure you.
Tetelesti - It Is finished.
The words Jesus uttered on the cross when He had died for me.
Beautiful. Simple. Live Changing.
The music and words to mom's song are below
and I think she was the coolest person, ever.
'Te-teles-te'
Te-teles-te, said my Master
As He hung upon Calvary's tree
Te-teles-te, said my Savior
When He took my sin, set me free
It is finished, it is done, it is completed.
His blood was shed there for you and for me.
Praise God, it is perfect atonement.
Trust in Jesus, nothing more do you need.
Te-teles-te He showed His love there.
Freely given, grace did freely flow.
Te-teles-te He will take your sin and wash you much whiter than snow.
It is finished, it is done, it is completed.
His blood was shed there for you and for me.
Praise God, it is perfect atonement.
Trust in Jesus, nothing more do you need.
Oh wont you please take my Jesus?
Open up your heart to His call.
Make Him your Lord and your Savior.
Te-teles-te, Christ paid it all.
It is finished, it is done, it is completed.
His blood was shed there for you and for me.
Praise God, it is perfect atonement.
Trust in Jesus, nothing more do you need.
