                    The song I have chosen to share with you today should be fairly well known, especially to those who have spent a part of their life either in scouting or church related organizations as a child. Some may recall this little jingle from their school days. So, here it is:

                    **Christ is **
Alive
He is our God
We should worship him
He should be our icon
He should be the one we weep for not man
We should buy his book
Listen to his music
Come from far and wide to worship him
We need to praise God not man
The way of life not death
With us in spirit and truth
 
Christ love

When Palmer asked the young man why he had chosen Jesus Christ, he answered
