Posted on Sun, 26 Jan 2020
Did you mean the whole metaphor of the first stanza, Richard? I couldn't suggest any change. I was puzzled at first at the metaphor, - why 'tenor' and then I thought, well, I suppose 'bass' would be like the darker shades of night, so tenor does...

So sad that there should be such hatred for Christ. Pray that such a death would actually prompt some to seek the God he served and who upheld him, and upholds those who remain. Rhiannon

What wonderful truth, and love, and so tragic that so many don't think about it, reject without thought, pray that many eyes and minds will be cleared to 'see' and receive! Rhiannon
