Practiced today with another baritone. Our voices are very much alike – when we sing duets you can barely tell who is singing what.
The songs were Christmas themed. Songs I’ve sung over the years with others. This time around the sound is amazing! I realize we are not quite ready for performance yet . . . but there are those times when you just know there is something beyond just notes and swells!
We will be leading a group of people in their Christmas program – with a good bit of carol singing. They will enjoy their time together – and we will enjoy being with them. Before that time I’ll sing or hear carols on a regular basis – and after that we still have our Christmas program!
Funny thing, this year I’ve been pushed into preparing for Christmas. The Sunday School class I’m teaching has done Advent chains – today I was praying for missionaries. I wonder what tomorrow holds. I’m planning on singing a few times over the season so the songs are running through my head. And my preaching has stepped up a notch as I consider the themes of Advent.
All in all, this looks to be a great season!!
