While Pat’s song is surely glorious, I cannot discern its words. For the time being, my eyes and ears are mostly earthbound. The songs I learn now draw me into the great eternal song. I am always learning new melodies and rhythms from brothers and sisters. My favorite new songs of the year belong to two very young singers. Perhaps I am biased as the artists are my grandchildren, but I have no doubt that our Father in heaven finds them even more delightful than I.
The first song is a masculine call to arms. It is martial exercise waged against imagined evil villains. A series of poses, thrusts and parries. It is a song of courage, bravery, and defense of the innocent. This is way boys grow into their role of protector, and it brings joy to the King of the Universe.

The second song is decidedly feminine. It is a graceful twirl of color and curtseys. My granddaughter is unusually in tune with the beauty of life, and her joyful movement unveils that beauty for those with eyes to see. She is practicing for the day of her dance before her Father the King, in full array of glory. Her joy makes that day real to me.

I am greatly blessed to have such wonderful singers in my life! Happy Birthday, Granddaughter!
