Last night my friend Shanda and I went to a Good Friday service at her church, and this is one of the hymns we sang. The entire service was full of rich, meditation-worthy songs and passages of scripture. It is good to be sad on Good Friday, knowing that the only reason it is called ‘good’ is because through Christ’s death our iniquities were covered and our relationship with Him was restored to those who believe in Christ.
