Peace Progress - Chronicles Series (1)

Tune: St Hugh

('Lord teach us how to pray aright')

1 Chronicles 12 v.18

*********

The Spirit said through Amasai

An army captain nigh

We are your people, King David

We shall not keep this hid

 

We are on your side, Jesse's son (i.e. David)

You the anointed one

Peace, peace to you and unto who

That help you, sure they do

 

For your God helps you, so you shall

Make progress, prosper well

We shall be loyal, encourage

You, so take bold courage

 

So David did them welcome there

His people, they did share,

In his victories, gained the land

God worked by His good hand

      • Andrew Charles Forrest

        blessed are the choir masters
        who make sense of it all
        a note wrong here can sound a din
        no matter if errors are small

          I can't write music, and can't really read it either. I have to know the tune first, then go from there. Some of them church choirs can be fierce - bit like the Mafia. Well, one I knew of anyway - 'Sing what WE want, or else...'

          • Andrew Charles Forrest

            LOL I can't sing

          • Andrew Charles Forrest
