The Angels’ Song
I may be allowing myself too much freedom in application of Psalm 20, but let’s see how it goes . . . I know it’s a song of David to the choirmaster, but I wonder if it could not have … Continue reading
In Whom I Take Refuge
Mulling over Psalm 18 this morning. A song of David. A song of victory. The words of the song addressed to the LORD on the day the LORD rescued David from the hand of all his enemies. Seems to me … Continue reading
