Did you hear that?

From the Collect for Easter 3:

 “…Open the eyes of our faith, that we may behold him in all his redeeming work…"

Easter Sunday at St. Andrew’s, the beginning of Communion – Doug Burgoyne, Sarah Charlock and Dan Waddill began the Leonard Cohen “Hallelujah.”  Not far into the song the congregation started singing the refrain very softly.  The sound was other-worldly, a moment in time I’ll never forget. For me, those few minutes were a “thin place” – where heaven and earth seemed more intermingled. The eyes of my faith were opened wider for a while.  All one can do in such holy moments is pray a quiet “thank you.”
