Dear Friend,

One of William Cowper’s lesser-known hymns is a favorite of mine. It deserves to be sung far more often than it is. It is a refreshingly honest lyric on the subject of prayer. The opening line addresses the well-known fact that distractions abound whenever we set about to pray.

"This year has been a trying time for our family, especially the last 6 months. We began to listen to the Truth For Life podcast and have been tremendously blessed by the Christ-centered sermons and devotionals each day. The theme music is a welcome tune as we step into our cars and drive to work each day, meditating on the undiluted, eternal truths of our Sovereign God’s Word that Alistair articulates boldly, with no compromise. We love the ‘hymnity’ and the poems. May God keep you true and faithful to His kingdom cause as He uses Truth For Life to minister to many like us across the globe."   - Ben and Lynda from Australia
