Happy 1 Year!

Part 1 - The Background Story: A couple of years ago I went to Montreal. It was amazing. I decided to go the day before the trip was leaving. A group from my church was going there to run a day camp. Anyone who knows me knows I'm actually not a camp person, day or overnight, too many kids at once. However these kids were different. And I still think of them often.

While on this trip they showed us some of the songs they had been learning that summer at camp. One of them was Wonderful, Merciful, Saviour most recognizably by Selah, this was the Anthony Evans version. I will never forget hearing these young kids sing this song with a passion that far surpassed their ages.

Here are a couple pictures of a few of the kids.


Part 2 - The Anniversary Part: It has been over a year since I have picked up the guitar or sang*. Although I'll be honest I didn't do much singing before that either. But I have promised Joel that if he made me my own Gadget* I would play him a song. So for Joel and my one year anniversary he got me a Fossil watch, I will sing a song.

So this is the song from the above story, its no Anthony Evans or Selah but it will have to do.



- T.

*A couple of notes, I am not a singer so I apologies. And I have not played in a year my fingers were hurting and my hands were shaking [I get very nervous even when its just me, I'm actually still shaky].

*Joel made me the gadget that is at the top of my blog, that has the quotes and photos in it. He made it MONTHS ago. I am bad with my follow through.
