The Good Friday Service on April 19th was a blessing!
Grace Baptist Fellowship and several surrounding churches enjoyed the first community wide Good Friday service held at GBF under the direction of Pastor Jack May. We were blessed with a full sanctuary, wonderful music and a great message from Pastor Jack as we all prepared our hearts for Sunday. The theme was 'It's Friday, but Sunday is Coming!' Our community rejoiced together as we reflected upon the cross and the Resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! We look forward to next year and this opportunity to join together with our community and celebrate our Risen Savior!
Please check out the following message from the Good Friday service. It will bless you as it did the many present at our service.
It’s Friday—But Sunday’s Comin’
I never get tired of listening to this Easter meditation by S.M. Lockridge (1913-2000) Pastor of Calvary Baptist Church in San Diego from 1953 to 1993.
It’s Friday
Jesus is praying
Peter’s a sleeping
Judas is betraying
But Sunday’s comin’
It’s Friday
Pilate’s struggling
The council is conspiring
The crowd is vilifying
They don’t even know
That Sunday’s comin’
It’s Friday
The disciples are running
Like sheep without a shepherd
Mary’s crying
Peter is denying
But they don’t know
That Sunday’s a comin’
It’s Friday
The Romans beat my Jesus
They robe him in scarlet
They crown him with thorns
But they don’t know
That Sunday’s comin’
It’s Friday
See Jesus walking to Calvary
His blood dripping
His body stumbling
And his spirit’s burdened
But you see, it’s only Friday
Sunday’s comin’
It’s Friday
The world’s winning
People are sinning
And evil’s grinning
It’s Friday
The soldiers nail my Savior’s hands
To the cross
They nail my Savior’s feet
To the cross
And then they raise him up Next to criminals
It’s Friday
But let me tell you something
Sunday’s comin’
It’s Friday
The disciples are questioning What has happened to their King
And the Pharisees are celebrating
That their scheming
Has been achieved
But they don’t know
It’s only Friday.
Sunday’s comin’
It’s Friday
He’s hanging on the cross
Feeling forsaken by his Father
Left alone and dying
Can nobody save him?
Ooooh
It’s Friday
But Sunday’s comin’
It’s Friday
The earth trembles
The sky grows dark
My King yields his spirit
It’s Friday
Hope is lost
Death has won
Sin has conquered
and Satan’s just a laughin’
It’s Friday
Jesus is buried
A soldier stands guard
And a rock is rolled into place
But it’s Friday,
It is only Friday,
Sunday is a comin’!
