"Beautiful Scandalous Night"
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.
Lend your heart and you soul,
In the fountain that flows,
For you, and for me, and 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.
On a hillside you will be delivered
At the foot of the cross justified
And your spirit restored by the river
That pours from our blessed Savior's side.
Chorus:
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.
He'll carry the sin of mankind on His back
And the sky went black
Go 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.
Chorus

Love this! This is a sweet picture of what our Savior did for you and I. I am so thankful that we are forever washed white. I have in my mind the wordless book. Grandpa Dean and Grandma Ethel, showing us each of the pages with the colors of black, red, white, green and gold. As the song went: My heart was filled with sin (black) until the Savior came in. His precious blood (red) I know, has washed me white as snow (white) And in Gods word I'm told, I walk the street of gold (gold, obviously) Oh what a wonderful day He washed my sins away. Green is for growing. I don't know if that fit in the song somewhere. Thank You Father, Thank You for your blood! Thank you for washing me white, forever.
Sarah.
Sorry, I have had one of those days, It is just so apparent to me that I need my Savior!
