I also included some congregational singing of familiar hymn refrains which speak of singing and song as metaphors for our life of discipleship, including "This is my story, this is my song, praising my Savior all the day long." Most of those hymns speak in the first-person singular, so some homiletical work is required to get the congregation thinking in the plural.Jenny Williamsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1464309008858992954.post-1802870340477574222010-04-26T07:44:46.745-07:002010-04-26T07:44:46.745-07:00Jenny, what a beautiful contribution to our thinki...Jenny, what a beautiful contribution to our thinking and to our worship practice. Your emerging metaphor of choir singing bears further development, so I hope to read the next installment on here one day soon!
