Show Pity, Lord; O Lord, Forgive

Show Notes

IN THIS EPISODE: "Show Pity, Lord; O Lord, Forgive" by Isaac Watts (1674-1748)

It was a time in England when laws against nonconformity to the state religion were enforced with bitterness. Young Watts was often carried in his mother’s arms to the town jail, where she visited his father, imprisoned for conscience’s sake.
