Of Psalms and Songs and Poetry - Paperback

by Johannes W. H. Van Der Biji (Author), Phil Knox (Foreword by)

A Pilgrim's Song for the Modern Soul. In a world wearied by striving, disconnection, and noise, these poetic ballads invite readers to journey toward hope, rest, and meaning. Drawing from ancient Scriptures and reframing them in vivid, contemporary imagery, this collection speaks to the aching heart and the searching mind. Each poem sings with honesty-- grappling with loss, longing, justice, beauty, and divine presence. Whether rooted in psalms, letters, or prophetic vision, the verses echo with the rhythms of real life and the promise of something greater. For anyone yearning for transcendence without escapism, and faith without pretense, this is a companion for the road.
