So I spent a couple of hours working on it and thought I had come up with something pretty good - so printed out the chords etc. However, when it came to the actual service we ran out of time to sing it. Oh well, it gives me more time to craft it further to get it right for next year. It's a re working of 'As With Gladness Men Of Old' - just in case you were wondering.

So what songs did we sing then? Here is the list . . . .
