It Should Be in the Hymnbook
Somehow, the people in charge of selecting hymns left this one out. (It might be in the latest version of our hymnbook, but I haven’t had time to go through all of it.) It’s a hymn by Kool and the Gang titled, “Celebration!”
For there’s a party goin’ on right here
A celebration to last throughout the years
So bring your good times, and your laughter too
We gonna celebrate your party with you
Come on, now, let’s all celebrate and have a good time
CELEBRATION!
That is how I describe my Lent… a true celebration. From the…
Ashes on Ash Wednesday
Beautiful hymns sung with joy and anthems from the choir.
Community Lenten lunches with good food and friends.
Palm Sunday Procession and reception of confirmands.
A meaningful Maundy Thursday service.
An energetic Easter egg hunt.
Capped off by the greatest Celebration of the year
He is Risen; He is Risen Indeed!
Thanks for all your love and laughter.
BTW, I have talked with DeQuan, and next year the choir will joyfully lead us in that classic by Kool and the Gang. “CELEBRATE!!! Hope to see you before then. How about this Sunday?
Have fun, David
