Chirpings from a Strathalan Sparrow

Good Friday and Easter Sunday is coming up this week. I was thinking the other day about how many, many Easter hymns Dad would have played on the piano and Mum would have sung over the years!! Before Jesus and the disciples went to Gethsemane they sang a hymn. And I am sure that there would have been so very, very much singing on that first Easter Sunday morning when there was the hugely joyful occasion that our Lord had risen!! I think that the women who first saw Him would have had hearts and voices exploding into songs of praise!! And when Jesus appeared to the disciples in the room after he had risen, I like to imagine the whole room would have been filled with heartfelt rejoicing in song! And what a scene to imagine to think of the angels in Heaven looking on

and singing so wonderfully praises that "He has risen!!" We may not be able to always sing out loud, but our heart can always rejoice in "inner singing  " of songs at Easter and every day!! Christ has died! Christ has risen! Christ will come again! Rejoice!
