if you say you’re sorry for all the stuff you do

Christians and non-Christians. Believers and non-believers. Sinners saved and lost. That is really the only significant difference between men, and I use the word ‘men’ generically; you have heard His words with ears of faith and been declared right with Him or you have heard His words with ears

Will you not stay,
Put up your caravan
