Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ, greetings!
I have recently written this song/hymn to a beautiful Irish melody and wish as many churches as possible to freely use it, as the Holy Spirit moves.
Letter of His Love (to the tune of “Down by the Salley Gardens”)
The immortal and self-existent
Who made every quark and star
Has of his very own substance
A letter of his love sent
He understands you completely
And knocks at the door of your heart
He wants to come in so sweetly
And never from you part
For every moment of being
There is a choice to make
Whether of a path corrupting
Or of caring good to take
He understands you completely
And knocks at the door of your heart
He wants to come in so sweetly
And never from you part
He knows your dark thought hidden
And sees your vilest act
But to follow him are you bidden
To leave wrong for better track
He understands you completely
And knocks at the door of your heart
He wants to come in so sweetly
And never from you part
So choose the One who dying
Bled and suffered for your sake
Jesus who by death defying
Made the way for you to take

Body and Blood – The last meal Jesus shared with his friends. Find out what happens and what he tells them will happen next.
When Jesus Hung Upon the Cross – We look at what Jesus said on the cross and what happened that first Good Friday.
No More Crying – It’s not the end of the story! Jesus’ friends are sad…but not for long. Something amazing is about to happen!
