'What colour will it be?'
'What's it going to be called?'
Whenever a new collection of songs in the All Together series is coming out, these appear to be the main questions, or at least, the first ones.
After that, 'what songs?' or 'what songwriters?'
(Nah, I made that last one up.
As the editor/compiler, & a songwriter, that's a question that I'm interested in having answered).
Had an email today with a suggestion for a future book.
It's one that's come up before: 'All Together Still'
I like it. It fits with both the style & the intent of these books. The 'All Together' name was just a name that seemed to fit when the first collection came out back in 1980. But over the years I've invested more meaning into it. Bringing all things together is what the work of Jesus is doing. Even when our eyes can't see it (more often than not), what 'all the king's horses & all the king's men' couldn't do, God does.
But for now it's all together once more, a promise that's already being kept, a hope that will be reality in the future.
