Sing a new song

A friend of mine in graduate school told me she'd lost her faith (she was raised Methodist) but so missed the singing that she wanted to go back to church. She did - and now she's a professor of theology! I didn't understand at the time, but I do now. How good for the soul it is to sing together, in four-part harmony or in unison! (Here are two hymns we sang today, both of relatively recent vintage.)
