Sunday, Sunday!

It's Sunday, and it's fast and testimony day! What better day than today to say that I'm immensely grateful for my faith, which is both a compass and an anchor in this life. Knowing where I came from, why I am here, and where I am going gives meaning to the mundane. I'm thankful to be His. ♥

I joined the Stake Adult Christmas Choir today, and was blessed to learn a new song that had me crying because it touched me so deeply. It was called, "Was I There" and it captured so perfectly how I have always felt about Christmas. The music is so beautiful. Here are the lyrics:

Christmas time fills the world again
Happy voices sing, Good will to men. 
Then a feeling of music forgotten 
Stirs my soul like a dream veiled in time.
Somehow do I know a heavenly song of long ago.
Burning bright in the heart of me
Like an ember in my memory.
Was I there in a chorus of angels when he came?
Did I sing out from heavn Glory to his name.
My Lord and my brother still the same.
Though I can't recall the scene,
The cold or balmy air,
Still somehow it must be so that I was there.
Did I weep for the love of him
On that holy night in Bethlehem?
Did I sing with a chorus of angels when he came?
Did I cry out from heaven glory to his name,
My Lord and Brother still the same.
Heav'n and earth together bound in wonder at the sight.
Nowhere else would I have been but there that night.
Did I weep for the love of him 
On that holy night in Bethlehem? 
Did I sing with a chorus of angels when he came?
Did I cry out from heaven glory to his name,
My Lord and Brother still the same (still the same).
Still the Same.
