Come Thou Fount

on Liam Byrnes from 16 weeks ago

@Gray, Thanks for commenting, hopefully Ill manage to keep it included in our wedding service order!
I do realy like the song but the most common verse sung with itstarts:
“Sorrowing I shall be in spirit,
Till released from flesh and sin,”
Now I know you could argue for spirit to be new creation and flesh and sin to be what we are saved out of, but I think it gives the impression that we have spirits which will float off into heaven ‘above’ instead of bodies that will experience resurrection on a new earth.

Nice to hear from you,
