February 1st Daily Hymn, Readings, Word, Psalm and Prayer

Hymn of the Day
When our song says peace and the world says war, we will sing despite the world. We will trust the song, for we sing of God, who breaks the spear and sword and stills the storm of war. ("When Our Song Says Peace" - Text: Richard Leach, b. 1953)
