It is always a privilege to pray with our musical groups each week as part of our preparation for worship. And then we get to sing, make music, and rejoice! I do often have that sense of "those who sing, pray twice."

A song could start out of the congregation and people would sing without instruments. A lot of the students knew the praise songs or familiar hymns, and if you didn't you could pray, hum or listen until one came along that you knew. Or it would be repeated and you'd learn it. Most of the time it just happened. Grassroots worship music!
