The Lord is come.Let earth receive her King!Let every heart prepare Him room and heaven and nature sing.Joy to the world! the Savior reigns, let men their songs employ.While fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains repeat the sounding joy.No more let sins and sorrows grow, nor thorns infest the ground.He […]
When my kiddos were little, our family used to live right smack in the middle of a main street that ran through our town. It was near a busy train station and across from middle school and a high school. The noise from traffic and students and the hustle bustle of life rushing past our […]
