"Some trust in chariots; some trust in horses, but we will depend on the name of the LORD our GOD."
The victorious Fiji rugby team praises the LAMB after their phenomenal win over Great Britain.
They inspire everyone to recognize that the power to win gold medals, the power to attain wealth, the ability to live and move and breathe--all--come from the grace and mercy of JESUS.
This,
for me, is the best moment of the entire Olympics so far!
The Fiji Sevens Men's Rugby team won their country's first ever gold medal and they sang in perfect harmony about it. It was rugby's re-introduction to the Olympics, having last been featured in Paris' 1924 Games.
After their 43-7 win over Great Britain, tears in many of their eyes, they huddled together and sang this in both English and Fijian:
We have overcome
We have overcome
By the blood of the Lamb
And the Word of the Lord
We have overcome.

Forget all the negativity of politics and the awful violence and
sadness we see so much of today. We need more people like these Fijians! After this
singing came the podium and, with great honor and humility, these men
did something I've never seen. Every single one bowed to both knees to
receive their medals. It was too beautiful! They were all class!
Rugby is a tough game played by these gentle people. Their play was unmatched but this singing... what an unexpectedly awesome moment of transcendence!
Someday, I hope to sing to the glory of the Lord with all of them in Heaven!
Huge congrats to the Fiji Rugby Team !!!!
