Was searching (last minute) for an offertory piece today for Palm Sunday (uh, tomorrow...). I found the lyrics to the old hymn "From Bethany, the Master" and paired it with some new duds.

We have our own custom hymnal at St. Pat's, the church where I serve as music director. It's been a while since I've added new hymns but I've been recently inspired to do so. One such hymn is "Lo He Comes" rewritten by my friend Zac Hicks from Denver. If you haven't heard it or his other hymn rewrites, check them out!

I've put up a few of my hymn rewrites on YouTube. Cool thing about this is that from time to type other folks and fellow hymn writers like Jason here say hi. Jason's YouTube channel is called Bathtub Worship 'cause he records his new rewrites in his bathroom - i guess 'cause it sounds good :) Checkout "There is Power in the Blood" here and then cruise over to his YouTube channel by clicking here. Jason and Kristin - you rock my face off! Thanks for sharing.
