12 Worship Notes: The hymns e sg th morng should remd us an essential truth our faith: that though e rightly deserve punhment for our ss, Chrt has appeased rath God (or, as ohn says 1 ohn 2:2, propitiation for our ss ). Comfort, Comfort Ye My People begs service by tellg us that that ell deserved H anger ill no more see nor heed. After a readg from saiah that Chrt bore ss many, makes tercession for transgressors, e confess that e look back see burdens Thou didst bear, burdens hich clude our on guilt (Not All The Blood Of Beasts). We celebrate that e are ransomed from eternal rath (Chosen Seed Zion s Children) that rath God as satfied (n Chrt Alone). Because th, e can have peace at times every ay, as Benediction from 2 Thessalonians charges us. The peace Chrt makes fresh our hearts (Ho Can Keep From Sgg), H name itself life health peace. nry C.
