I Will Sing Unto the Lord
This hymn apears at No. 316 in Mission Praise. Music and words are by Donya Brockway. We had a very small choir today due to weather conditions and broken bones with people falling and injuring themselves on the ice earlier (2 members). We wish both a speedy recovery. Mic placement became an issue with the depleted numbers and some voices are accentuated more than they should be, but - too late!
