At the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem, singers and musicians were brought together from surrounding regions to celebrate “because God had given them great joy.” Nehemiah assigned two choirs to give thanks. One was to proceed on the top of the wall to the right and one proceeded in the opposite direction. There were cymbals, harps, and lyres, and even priests with trumpets. The women and children also rejoiced. It is said that the sound of rejoicing in Jerusalem could be heard far away.
If I could assign two choirs and a group of musicians and priests to assist me I would do it, because I have reason to celebrate. I have reason to give thanks. And with this blog, it is my distinct privilege to give it publically, to thank those who gave financially to bring my new album to fruition. . . so I can tell. You might call it my own Wall of Thanks. So, here it goes, in no particular order, Jehovah-Jireh at the top:
