Product Description

Excerpt from Two Discourses Delivered October the 25th, 1759 No comment is necessary for the explanation of these words, which are very plain of themselves: Neither is there need of any preface, or introduction, in order to accommodate them to the present joyful occasion; since it is supposed, they must appear, even at first view, sufficiently adapted to it. We may therefore immediately adopt them ourselves, and apply them to the business of this day. For the Lord hath, indeed, done great things for us, whereof we are doubtless glad; having abundant reason to be so. And, in the language of the context, well may "our mouth be now filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing."
