Song at Twilight contains 50 meditations from the able and fluent pen of Vance Havner, America's most quoted preacher. In the preface he notes that his previous batch of meditations had been titled It Is Toward Evening, adding, "This new collection indicates that by now I am approaching twilight." In these pages you will find the mature perceptions of someone who has walked with God for many decades through this decaying and decadent world with a firm step and steady gaze toward the city whose builder and maker is God. The gates of that city are within sight as the traveler shares with us the distilled wisdom of many years before taking flight to the heavenly realms. Of special interest in this volume is the writer's comments on a trip he evidently made to the Holy Land, passing through Rome, Greece, and Turkey, with rich insights on the various places of antiquity connected with the apostle Paul and our Lord himself. He has comments about remains such as the Colosseum and the Mamertine prison as well as towns and cities such as Athens, Corinth, Bethlehem, Bethel, and Jerusalem. You will be richly rewarded for the time spent perusing these pages.
