This is how we overcome



















Graeme dedicated his life to Jesus on January 6, 2008 and decided to make a public declaration of it by being baptized on March 30, 2008. It was a sweet thing to watch as Duncan was baptizing him. Here are the lyrics to a song we sang that day - celebrating how we can overcome the trials of this life by putting our trust in Jesus.

THIS IS HOW WE OVERCOME
Your life broke through my night
Restored exceeding joy
Your praise fell like the rain
And made this desert live
(repeat x 1)

You have turned my mourning into dancing
You have turned my sorrow into joy
You have turned my mourning into dancing
You have turned my sorrow into joy

Your hand lifted me up
I stand on higher ground
Your praise rose through my heart
And made this valley sing

You have turned my mourning into dancing
You have turned my sorrow into joy
You have turned my mourning into dancing
You have turned my sorrow into joy

This is how we overcome
This is how we overcome
This is how we overcome
This is how we overcome
(repeat 2)

You have turned my mourning into dancing
You have turned my sorrow into joy
You have turned my mourning into dancing
You have turned my sorrow into joy

Blessing to Graeme for taking this next step in his faith. And, how cool for Duncan to get to be the one to do it.

I'm sorry that we missed this great moment in Graeme's life.

Those pictures are great!
