Happy Thanksgiving, everybody!
I have three hymns lined up for you so far, including this one from Craig Duncan Music: We Gather Together. I don’t usually post instrumentals, but this is a very unusual combination of musical sounds and it quickly won me over. I mean, how often do you get to hear a dulcimer?
I hope we can all enjoy some fellowship here on this blog today. This is the season for looking back and counting up your blessings.
Sometimes they’re more than we thought.
I remember we used to sing this hymn in Sunday school, come Thanksgiving-time. “We Gather Together to ask the Lord’s blessing…” We have our friends and esteemed colleagues, Joshua and Jeremy, to play it for us today. Oh, this goes so far back for me!
Thanksgiving is tomorrow. Just at this moment, I’m thankful for the sunshine glinting off the few golden leaves left on the maple tree outside my window.
