New Song
Before the throne of God above
I have a strong, a perfect plea
A great High Priest whose name is Love
Who ever lives and pleads for me
When Satan tempts me to despair
and tells me of the guilt within
Upward I look and see Him there,
Who made an end to all my sin
Because the sinless Savior died
my sinful soul is counted free
For God the Just is satisfied
to look on Him and pardon me
To look on Him and pardon me
Before the throne of God, I come
Before the throne of God, I come
Behold Him there, the risen Lamb
my perfect spotless righteousness
The great unchangeable I Am,
the King of glory and of grace
My name is graven on His hands
My name is written on His heart
I know that while in Heaven, He stands
No tongue can bid me thence depart
One with Himself I cannot die
My soul is purchased with His blood
My life is hid with Christ on high
With Christ my Savior and my God
With Christ my Savior and my God

Dubai videos
First I narrated looking at Ski Dubai. For those who don't know, It is the biggest indoor skiing in the world. We didn't go in but you get a peek at it.
Here is one on our desert safari
Another one!

Videos
This past week/weekend Russians celebrate Mazlenitsa. It is a celebration to say goodbye to the winter and welcome spring. They had a special celebration for teachers. They of course had traditional Russian dances, blini, and outdoor games.
So this first video is of me sledding down a hill that the kids made at school during the celebration. It used to be about twice as wide, long, and high. But since most days are above freezing now, it is beginning to melt away. I was watching the other teachers do it and they kept falling down the sides! It was about as tall as I am. So I was trying my best to stay atop and not fall!
Here is another. We also had Women's Day on Saturday and therefore got today off of work! So this video is of the guy teachers singing to us. They did a whole little show for us. It was great!
Here is another Mazlenitsa celebration video. They were doing another one of their traditional dances.
I hope you enjoyed them! I will try to do some more again later!
