Singing

I love the singing in Haitian church.  We always sing lots of songs.  We sing loud, even if we cannot carry a tune in a bucket.  We sing out in praise with joy and enthusiasm. 

I love that we sing from the Chans D'Esperance.  I have a copy at home and have my favorite ones circled.  Some of them I know in English too.  Others I don't know if they have an English version.

Last night, when I could not sleep, several hymns came to mind.  Sometimes I sang the English words.  One of them, I only remembered portions of the hymn and it was the Creole version.

I miss Haitian church.
