Life-filled weekend

This weekend made me think of two of my favorite songs.  There was a lot of sadness in many ways, but all temporal sadness, or sadness that will go away in Heaven, because Jesus will be known and worshipped by all, people will not be sick in heaven or die, we will not be sad because of loss and everyone will have perfect fellowship with one another because we will finally be without sin, hence the second song, O Happy Day :)
 
Mountains High (by Delirious)

Sorrow came to visit us today
Was the longest day, was the loneliest day
Sorrow came to steal our hope away
Only tears can tell
Of this holy hour

This mountain's high, too high for us
This mountain's high, too high for us

Sorrow came quicker than a fire
Was the longest day, was the loneliest day
I feel your hand, the warmth, your sweetest smile
But you slipped away, through the great divide

This mountain's high, too high for us
This mountain's high, too high for us

Your ways are high, too high for us
Your ways are high, too high for us
