Songs of Praise

I love music and I've always loved to sing. (Even as a baby my dad used to call me his "la la girl!") We have been starting to sing Christmas songs in my church choir the past couple of weeks. Christmas music is wonderful, though I think some radio stations do start playing it a bit on the early side. (If it were just the songs about Christ's birth and life, I could gladly listen to it all year. It's the Jingle Bells and Ho Ho Ho that gets to me. I play a lot of CDs instead.)

Anyway, we are singing, "My Shepherd Will Supply My Need" for church this next Sunday. It's so beautiful!! I love the melody and harmony in it and the words are fantastic! I kind of wish the women got to sing the first part, but these words are only for the men in the arrangement we are doing:

"My Shepherd will supply my need, 
Jehovah is His name.
In pastures fresh He makes me feed,
Beside the living stream.

He brings my wand’ring spirit back,
When I forsake His ways.
And leads me for His mercy’s sake
In paths of truth and grace."



I'm so grateful for our Savior. I love Him! He is the light and life of the world. It's always a good time of year to think of Him, strive to follow Him, and sing praises to Him.
