He's done for others. He'll do for you and you and you and you with us. What

no one. There's no hesitation on his part. He'll pardon you. I hear chords. It is no secret.

You know why it sounds precious to me? It's my daddy used to sing it. Mom, dad used to

sing this for the preach, didn't he? A lot. Isaiah 53. Who has believed our report and to whom is the

Lord, the arm of the Lord revealed? He shall grow up before him as a tender plant and as a root out of
