One of the reasons I love my church so much is the "Happy Hour Band" at the 5:00 Mass. They have a good mix of regular hymns that we all know & love with some contemporary songs that give me chills. There is one song in particular that I look forward to hearing every week called "Behold." I think it is an original arrangement because I can't find it anywhere on the internet. I guess you will just have to come to Mass with me one week to feel the holiness I feel when I listen to this song. Don't worry, I don't ruin it for those around my by trying to sing along.
This week we had a guest performance by Nick Chatham, a junior at one of the local high schools. He played piano and sang the most beautiful two worship songs. I had never heard either of the songs he sang, but enjoyed them so much, I made sure to remember some of the lyrics to Google when I got home. After a few failed attempts to find the songs, I decided to check out Youtube and see if he had any videos posted. I came across his channel and found out the two songs he played were originals. I was so shocked to find out not only did this high school kid have an amazing voice and impeccable piano playing skills, he also wrote his own worship songs. Where was he when I was walking the halls of KHS? I was pretty amazed by him and thought you guys might be too. Here is a link to the first song he played tonight. I know it won't seem as special as it did in the church tonight, but hopefully he will still give you a couple of goose bumps
