The most important thing you should know about me is recorded by Paul in Romans 7. "What a wretched man am I! Who will save me from this body of sin and death? Thanks be to you, O God - through Jesus Christ our Lord!" I pray that these amateur reflections on my favorite hymns will lift your spirits and you may grow in the grace and knowledge of Jesus Christ. Amen
