Witness Publication Updated Information Please be advised that after careful consideration that

ber 2020 will be the last.

“Cantare amantis est…singing belongs to one who
loves.” – Saint Augustine
I received another response from our Youth Choir on their
favorite hymns this week and the number one favorite song,
by far, is 10,000 Reasons! This is such a beautiful hymn and
I find my own girls singing this song at home all the time.
Enjoy reading through the lyrics below:
Kalleigh Green – 10,000 Reasons
Bless the Lord, O my soul, O my soul; worship his holy
name.
Sing like never before, O my soul; I’ll worship your holy
name.
The sun comes up, it’s a new day dawning, it’s time to sing
our song again.
Whatever may pass, and whatever lies before me, let me
be singing when the evening comes.
You’re rich in love and you’re slow to anger. Your name
is great and your heart is kind.
For all your goodness, I will keep on singing: ten thou-
sand reasons for my heart to find.
And on that day, when my strength is failing, the end
draws near, and my time has come;
Still, my soul will sing your praise unending: ten thou-
sand years, and then forevermore.
-Theresa Sundstrom
