This hymn came to me so strongly this morning that I just had to post it: Just As I Am, Without One Plea. It was my Aunt Millie’s favorite hymn. I can remember her humming it as she bustled about her housework: hearing it really brings that back to me. We wait, O Lord, for your restoration of all things.
I have lived in Metuchen, NJ, all my life. I have been married to my wife Patricia since 1977. I am a former newspaper editor and reporter. I was also the owner-operator of my own small business for several years. I wrote various novels and short stories published during 1980s and 1990s. I am a long-time student of judo and Japanese swordsmanship (kenjutsu). I also play chess, basketball, and military and sports simulations.

Oh, thank you for this one. It has been a favorite for many years, and in fact I recall from the time I was very young, this would bring tears to even the unbelievers who occasionally visited our church, and it occasionally brought some of them to the altar and onto their knees. We need a lot more of this.
