The Song is hard
to define. The Song has always been part of Lavinia's life. As a young
girl she was privileged to be part of a church which loved to sing. She
learnt a lot about worship through looking at the faces of the people
around her. It was not unusual to see people shed tears as they worshipped,
equally she watched expressions of joy as faces shone with the glory of
God. She learned that worship had nothing to do with external circumstances,
but a heart touched by God's amazing grace.
There
are many ways to worship God, but for Lavinia singing has been something
that God has used throughout her life. In the early years both her and
her husband were part of a group called the Persuaders. Then they sang
with their sons as a family group named Peaceline. In later years they
sang together and up until recently Lavinia sang with worship groups in
her own church..
The Song says
many things. It is worship and adoration of our Saviour. It joins with
a heavenly host declaring the majesty of God. It lifts a tired and weary
spirit and reminds those who are homesick for heaven of that great day
when we shall all sing a new song.
The song has
to be sung. It cannot remain within.
