Last words Quote by Richard Wurmbrand

“They say the tongues of dying men enforce attention like deep harmony. Their words are scarce, they’re seldom spent in vain For they breathe truth that breathe their words in pain. How well he could have applied this passage to the last words of Jesus on the cross.” quote by Richard Wurmbrand
