It's Friday...

Today as I was thinking about it being Good Friday and Sunday is Easter, and that (I think) Easter is about my favorite holiday of the year, but there would be no Easter if Good Friday had never happened...and these lyrics of what is probably my favorite Good Friday songs came to mind.

Nothing’s sacred, the days are cheap 
Truth is thin on the ground 
Still our prophets are crucified 
Nobody believes we’re stumbling 
It’s Friday, but Sunday is coming 

Someone’s saying a prayer tonight 
For hungry mouths to be filled 
Someone kneels in the dark somewhere 
And darkness is already crumbling 
It’s Friday, but Sunday comes 

Sunday – Hallelujah – it’s not so far, it’s not so far away 
Sunday – Hallelujah – it’s not so far, it’s not so far away 

Broken promises, weary hearts 
But one promise remains: 
Crucified, he will come again 
It’s Friday, but Sunday is coming 
It’s Friday, but Sunday is coming 

Sunday…


To me, the last verse is especially powerful.  Regardless of how many other promises are broken by people, hurting us deeply, His promises are always true.  He is always faithful, and hope will come when we hold on.  Now matter how dark the Friday night of your life is, Sunday morning will come.
