Let our minds transport us back to a part of the world that throbs with the words and wonder of Jesus himself.
In the 1800's William How wrote this hymn:
It is a thing most wonderful. almost too wonderful to be true.
That God's own Son should come from heaven, and die to save a child like me.
I sometimes think upon the cross and shut my eyes and try to see.
The cruel nails and crown of thorns and Jesus crucified for me.
let us gaze on the wonders of the day and see Jesus pinned to the cruel tree, not by nails, but by love for you and me.
Grace and peace from the Lord Jesus Christ
Anne, servant of the Lord
