What to Seek
What to Seek ~~~~~ In a church done in the 1890’s style, I’m told. Should that make me smile, Question all truths I’ve held awhile? Do these questions have any answer; That’ll matter to another generation? Did I think I’d find my chance here, Hope I would be forgiven all my sin? I don’t believe […]
