On the fly Imani, our choir director, was asked if we, the ACA choir, would sing for Sabbath School.
The notice didn't really get to everyone, so we had a quick run through on Friday, hoping that the guys would show up.
Early Sabbath morning came and it was just us girls again. We got up on stage to run through it and it was just crap to be honest. The key wasn't right, we were tuning with each other, everything was just off. Imani asked me right before if I would sing a solo. I didn't really want to, but I agreed to it anyways. As soon as we were finishing up, a couple more guys came.
Sabbath school started with a praise team. During that whole time, I was just praying that God would be with us as we sing and help me out. We all gathered backstage and Imani prayed that the angels would sing with us and remove the nervousness from within. A lot of us had a lot of doubts about how this would turn out.
I got up there and started singing with the mic, but I hadn't turned it on. Thankfully, I had a practice verse. But then I figured out you have to turn the ON button on. Haha. After that, I could just feel someone singing with me. It was an amazing experience because usually when I get up to sing, which is quite often, I am always nervous. No matter how many times I rehearsed the song, now matter if I know it by heart, basically no matter what my hands are always shaking and what not.
So here's the video below. It doesn't do our performance justice, but just know that the angels really WERE singing with us this morning.
