Local musical messengers ~Box Hill Citadel Band (Craig Downes), Box Hill YP Singing Company (Fiona Florance) and Waverley Temple Timbrel Brigade (Jo De Kleyn) ~ teamed up for our annual Christmas Festival this evening to present a feast of music that was both 'heavenly and divine'. Each section gave of their best to God and the audience, to the delight of both.
One of the YP Singing Company's songs is still resounding in my mind. Pause for a moment to reflect on the words.
Christmas is a time
Christmas is a time
Christmas is a time to love
We often start to worry and people get upset
When things don't go all right on Christmas day
What we should remember in all the push and shove
Is Christmas is a time to love.
Maybe things don't sound right or look the way they should
And maybe they're not perfectly in tune
It really doesn't matter, let's keep our eyes above
'Cause Christmas is a time to love.
What a timley reminder for us all in the middle of a busy yet blessed month!
