Oyarsa's Observances

This blog is created for my random thoughts and opinions. Conflicting opinions are always welcome, but comments or remarks left in a disrespectful or distasteful manner (to be determined by myself) will be either ignored or deleted.

Name:

"Oyarsa" for those who don't know, is the name of an archangel (or "god" with a little 'g') in C. S. Lewis's Space Trilogy. I liked the character, so I stole the name. Who am I? I am a library science student in Illinois who has a variety of interests--too many to list! I have worked in libraries for five years and counting.

Are you a good person?

Have Trouble Remembering the books of the Bible?

This song may help:

********

Here are the lyrics to "He is"; I learned them as a young teenager in order to get a better grasp on the order of the books of the Bible. Hope it works for you!

"He Is"
by the Christian father-son duet Aaron Jeoffrey.

In Genesis, He's the Breath of Life
In Exodus, the Passover Lamb
In Leviticus, He's our High Priest
Numbers, the Fire by Night
Deuteronomy, He's Moses' Voice
In Joshua, He is Salvation's choice
Judges, Law Giver
In Ruth, the kinsmen-redeemer
First and Second Samuel, our Trusted Prophet
In Kings and Chronicles, He's Sovereign
Nehemiah, He's the rebuilder of broken walls and lives
In Esther, He's Mordecai's courage
In Job, the timeless redeemer
In Psalms, He is our morning song
In Proverbs, wisdom's cry
Ecclesiastes, the time and season
In the Song of Solomon, He is the lover's dream

HE IS, HE IS, HE IS....

In Isaiah, He's Prince of Peace
Jeremiah, the weeping prophet
In Lamentations, the cry for Israel
Ezekiel, He's the call from sin
In Daniel, the stranger in the Fire
In Hosea, He is forever faithful
In Joel, He's the spirit's power
In Amos, the arms that carry us
In Obadiah, He's the Lord our Savior
In Jonah, He's the great missionary
In Micah, the promise of peace
In Nahum, He is our strength and our shield
In Habakkuk and Zephaniah He's pleading for revival
In Haggai, He restores a lost heritage
In Zechariah, our fountain
In Malachi, He is the sun of righteousness
Rising with healing in His wings

HE IS, HE IS, HE IS....

In Matthew, Mark, Luke and John He is God, Man Messiah
In the book of Acts, He is Fire from Heaven
In Romans, He's the Grace of God
In Corinthians, the power of Love
In Galatians, He is freedom from the curse of sin

Ephesians, our glorious treasure
Philippians, the servant's heart
In Colossians, He's the Godhead Trinity
Thessalonians, Our coming King
In Timothy, Titus, Philemon He's our mediator and our faithful pastor
In Hebrews, the everlasting covenant
In James, the One who heals the sick
In First and Second Peter, He is our Shepherd
In John and Jude, He's the Lover Coming for His bride
In Revelation, He is King of kings and Lord of lords
HE IS, HE IS, HE IS...
The Prince of Peace, The Son of Man, The Lamb of God,
The Great I Am, He's the Alpha and Omega,
Our God and our Savior, He is Jesus Christ the Lord,
And when time is no more..
HE IS... HE IS...
