Yes! The past couple of weeks I have been compelled to sing loudly and often. Interestingly, even songs I've memorized fail to come to mind on a hard day. I've switched from podcasts to hymns and psalms and other "spiritual songs" in order to help me. It's made a world of difference. We are blessed to be a singing people with such a rich heritage of song.
Yes! I think the fact that Christians invented polyphony concurrent with the development of Trinitarian theology speaks to that mysterious, divine aspect of harmonized voices.

Whoa... It's like the enemy is trying to scramble your radio signals.... Definitely keep the hymnals & Bibles open!
This is not new for me; the surprise factor was the most disorienting, but now at least I know it when I see it! Music is a profound blessing!
Love this so much! There is a deep and mysterious power in singing, especially hymns, especially *together* with other people.
