Martin Luther was one of the great reformers and unfortunately we are only now learning about the others. We will definitely fill the gap in our children's education about this. Thank you so much for sharing this Hymn spotlight with us at Good Morning Mondays.

That's also when I learned to love the older generation. I have come to love these hymns within the past 2 years. They are chock full of Truth, passion for Almighty God and unwavering faith. I continue to learn more and more of them and their stories. I am going to have to learn this one too! Thanks for sharing this post on Fellowship Friday - where I linked up also (22 & 23).
