Hosanna

I see the king of glory
Coming on the clouds with fire
The whole earth shakes
The whole earth shakes

Yeeeah

I see his love and mercy
Washing over all our sin
The people sing
The people sing

[Chorus]
Hosanna
Hosanna
Hosanna in the highest
[x2]

I see a generation
Rising up to take their place
With selfless faith
With selfless faith

I see a near revival
Stirring as we pray and seek
We're on our knees
We're on our knees

[Chorus]

Heal my heart and make it clean
Open up my eyes to the things unseen
Show me how to love like you have loved me

Break my heart from what breaks yours
Everything I am for your kingdoms cause
As I go from nothing to
Eternity

[Chorus x2]

Hosanna in the highest

One year later….

As some of you know, a little over a year ago I bought a house here in Austin.

It did not dawn on me until the evening of the one year anniversary that it had been an entire year since I bought it.

It’s been crazy.

A few things that were done:

  • Carpet removed
  • Minor kitchen remodel
  • Inside was entirely repainted (with many thanks to my friends who helped me)
  • Hardwood floor installed (again, with many thanks to those that helped)
  • A deck was added to the back (thanks dad and others)
  • Vent added to master bath (part of the roof replacement (don’t ask (bad storm (3” hail))))
  • New kitchen counters, ordered last week. (3” granite with tile backsplash)

I have a few small things to finish – railings on the deck, and transition strips for all the flooring. Oh, and paint sills and casings white. And then I’m done… at least for a while.

It’s been a trip, a lot of blood, sweat and tears – but as I sit here and listen to my roommate’s music, in the end it’s been worth it.
