We're putting together an updated songbook for our children's chapel service, and I walked into our clergy assistant's office today to find a sheet on her desk with one of my all-time favorite camp songs on it.
"I love this song!" I said, not noticing that she was pulling all those pages out.
"Read the whole thing," she told me.
The first verse was good: "I will call upon the Lord/who is worthy to be praised/ So shall I be/ saved from my enemies."
But the chorus had a kicker to it: "The Lord liveth!/ and blessed be the Lord/ and may the God of our salvation be exhausted!"
(It should read, "be exalted," by the way.)
About Me
- Isaac, The Rookie
- To be a rookie, to me, means to always be prepared but never claim to be ready. I am exploring life under God's call. As an unordained professional youth minister, I work with students and families to grow relationships with Christ leading to lifelong commitment; relationships with each other to become healthy Christian humans; and relationships with the larger Church to develop a global view of God's people.

I've always been waiting for someone to type "salivation" instead of "salvation".
Something to the effect of: "Let us now pray for salivation."
Also, I think "exhaled" would be a much better typo for "exalted". :P
