206. Each Day Begins
It used to be that as I drove to church on Sunday morning I would sing the tune to “When Jesus Wept.” It was a breath exercise for me and also a chance to get my voice tuning up a little. This short little tune has four phrases and that’s how I would start it out but then would see if breath-wise I could sing it in two phrases. Good exercise first thing in the morning.
It’s a song we use usually during Holy Week and as I drove along I could never remember the words. So I wrote new ones. Now I sing it any day as I drive and really think about the words. Same tune—When Jesus Wept—new words.
Each day begins and then each day ends,
And so our lives have endings too.
Look closely now at time you have
And use your moments to live the love.
