Abi +2 = a hymn project
“Taste and see that the Lord is good” is a line from an ancient song, Psalm 34. It invites us to recognize the goodness of God as something to be tasted, something to be seen, heard, smelled, and touched.
During these forty days of Lent, we invite you to be attentive with, and to, your senses and what they tell you about God’s goodness. We will do it in worship on each of the Sundays, but it’s a practice you can take on as a daily discipline: at the end of the day, take a moment to remember sights and sounds, tastes, smells and textures that reminded you of God’s goodness. You will notice that each day you become a little more aware of what’s always there: heaven and earth declaring the glory of God.
Each Sunday during Lent, inspired by the readings, we will lift up one of our senses in worship. And in each of the weeks that follow, we invite you to be part of a collaborative art project: we will write a hymn together.
Each week Abi Flowers will meet with two more Vine Street folks for a co-writing session. The tune will be a familiar one, and the three will let the meter give form to their poetry of praise. And on Palm Sunday, at the beginning of Holy Week, we will all sing that hymn together in worship. Don’t tell yourself, nor let anybody else tell you, that you’re not a songwriter. You’re not too young for praise, nor too old for knitting words into lines and stanzas. Go ahead, sign up - you'll love it!
