Palm Sunday

In the morning palms where well and truly waved. I wait for BB to correct me, but I do believe that the streets of Milngavie saw me singing along with an accordion accompanist for the first time in my life!
In the evening the choir at All Saints set the tone for the coming week with The Cross of Christ, a singing of the Passion Narrative we had heard in the morning – maybe some joined up thinking is required for next year.

All That is Gold Does Not Glitter

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.
