Peace Offerings
Sacred Time and Our Saving Christ
While all our hearts and all our songs join to admire the feast, each of us cry with thankful tongues, Lord, why was I a guest? Twas the same love that spread the feast, that sweetly drew us in, else we had still refused to taste and perished in our sin. That any of us […]
