This is probably the most special of all songs to me.
During
my a cappella choir days at Carson-Newman College, Jefferson
City, Tennessee,
we sang this
song at the close of every rehearsal and every performance.
A great many of my fellow choir members from those days are still
among my very closest friends.
This includes our beloved director, Charles H. Jones ("Fessor").
Fessor and his wife, Ann, who has also become special to all of us!
"The Lord bless you and keep you,
The Lord lift His countenance upon you,
And give you peace,
and give you peace.
The Lord make His face to shine upon you,
And be gracious unto you,
be gracious,
The Lord be gracious,
gracious unto you.
Amen, Amen, Amen,
Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen."
~ Numbers 6: 24-26
