The Hill
Breathless, we flung us on the windy hill,
Laughed in the sun, and kissed the lovely grass.

Wind, sun, and earth remain, the birds sing still,

Dwight L. Moody, a great evangelist and Christian educator of the late nineteenth century, used to say, "The Bible was not given to increase our knowledge, but to change our lives."
