But, how understanding are we as we write, sing, and lead others in worship with these words? The Words We Sing is an exploration of 59 words and phrases found in both modern worship songs and hymns written years - even centuries - ago. With insight and inspiration, author Nan Corbitt Allen identifies the definition, biblical context, and historical background that make each term come to life with power and meaning.
