Happy 4th of July! Our return to the Sanctuary was a great success with the number of attendees not in the Sanctuary in the single-digits. Thank you all for your support. Rev. Jason completes today his series in Ezra, the choir returns to sing for the first time in over a year, the organ once again sounds its music, and the service concludes with the Hallelujah Chorus from Handel's Messiah.

Chorus:Glory! glory! Hallelujah!Glory! glory! Hallelujah!Glory! glory! Hallelujah!His truth is marching on!I have seen Him in the watchfires of a hundred circling camps, They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps; I can read His rightrous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps, His day is marching on. [Chorus]He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat, He is sifting our the hearts of men before His judgement seat; O be swift, my soul, to answer Him, be jubilant, my feet! Our God is marching on. [Chorus]In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea, With a glory in His being that transfigures you and me; As He died to make men holy let us live to make men free!While God is marching on.
