Happy Easter
Another from the Edbrooke Collective
The great and terrible Friday. The place where the great and terrible God of all creation judges. Where He loves. Where He mercies. Where He graces.
All will be judged. But through the one sent from the Father, we can escape judgement and receive love, mercy and grace.

Reworking of a Charles Wesley hymn of worship.
I sang this beautiful hymn yesterday at a large central London church with a few hundred confident, care free singers. It was a more modern version and arrangement than this one and I didn’t realise it was a very old hymn until I tried to track it down to share with you. A modern rendition does not seem to available so here is the oldie but goodie.
Over the Rhine have been a favourite for years but I was unfamiliar with this beautiful song – brooding with sweet surprises.
Saw Casting Crowns in New Zealand in 2011 and they were a very impressive bunch of Christian brothers and sisters. We used to sing this song, very beautifully I might add, in church on a Sunday morning in the beautiful city of Hamilton on the River Waikato.
