Reflections by Christine Griggs “Gratitude”


I


n the September 2020 edition of Connect, the then ‘Songs of Praise’ (BBC 1) peoples’ top 10 hymns were


listed:


. 1 Jerusalem . 2 How great thou art . 3 In Christ alone . 4 Dear Lord and Father of mankind . 5 Abide with me . 6 I vow to thee my country . 7 Guide me Oh thou Great Jehovah . 8 Amazing grace . 9 Be still for the presence of the Lord


10 I, the Lord of sea and sky


Throughout the pandemic, which is not over yet, singing in our Church has not been possible. However, we have enjoyed listening to recorded hymns and songs in nine recent Sunday services, whilst reading the words on screen, meditating on them, ‘singing’ in our hearts and praising the Lord.


“Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God.” Colossians 3:16
