In the cross of Christ I glory, Towering o'er the wrecks of time; All the light of sacred story Gathers round its head sublime.— filed under Cross Of Christ
You have nothing to do but simply to receive the everlasting love of God in Christ His Son, which was without you, which began before you, which flows forth independent of you, which is unchecked by all our sins, which triumphs over all our transgressions, and which will make us - loveless, selfish, hardened, sinful men - soft and tender and full of Divine perfection, by the communication of its own self. Chance and change are busy ever; Man decays, and ages move; But His mercy waneth never; God is wisdom, God is love.— filed under God's Love
