Hallelujah, Amen!

Hallelujah, Thine the glory! Hallelujah, Amen. Hallelujah, Thine the glory, revive us again!

In my memory, I hear voices raised in song in the rural school house. It was Sunday morning and a small group of people sang their joy to God while I pounded out an accompaniment on the piano.

This was the place of worship many years ago, when I was a young teenager and my family lived in a small house way back in the woods of Oklahoma. The congregation was small, the church was a country school, but the songs and sermon rang with sincerity.

I miss those days and the simplicity of worship. But, I’m so very grateful.
