ZION BAPTIST CHURCH
A WORD FROM THE CHOIR.

1t is a good sign of our times,
sign of our awakening, that We are
beginning to consider our singing
aside from the choir loft application
Years enough have been spent in de
fnins the place of our choir in our
services, in devoting energy towards
the lesser questions as to its neces
sity, tolerance, etc. Even the organ
ization of kickers who did ignore its
existence have long since disbanded
for want of support
On the other hand. we who com
pose the organization are more and
more turning our attention to the
broader application in its relation to
our congregation. We realize that if
to sing merely to help fill out the
services or to have the pleasurable
experience of having entertained and
pleased were our purpose. our singing
would be in vain or services a him
drance
Our real purpose is to create mus
ical atmosphere in our church, to cul-
t'vaie the taste for the enjoyment of
Franklin's paper the statesman., 1912-03-30
For all who enter there.

Surely never before in the history
of the church has a grNater effort
been put forth to save the young peo-
pie, to save them from themselves, a
great salvation indeed
We realize that there must be unity
of thought and effort on our part with
that of our leader, to bring about the
desired end. 1t would be unworthy
of us as an organization to be indo-
lent and Indifferent with conditions
such as are facing US.
We are deeply interested in our
children. We love them; they are al
ways with us, and in them We find the
continuity of all human efforts. Why
then should we not in childhood con-
secrate them? We would that every
enc into whose face we look from
time to time might be saved.
We shall sing them songs, only
beautiful songs, with the hope that
the spirit will linger with them
through life, not only the beautiful in
song but in all things, only, will APP
peal to them.
1t is fitting then that occasionally
we turn from our regular service and
spend the hour in a service of song
Sunday evening will be given to such
service, at which time classical
program will be rendered.
Franklin's paper the statesman., 1912-03-30

a high order of music; to eliminate
from our services all songs, however
good the sentiment, that are not set
10 music that is light in character,
that does not appeal to the highest
within US, and therefore might tend
towards corruption.
Our purpose finally is to help lay
the foundation of all the church hopes
to realize spiritually, to awake the
harp. so to speak, of our congrega-
ton that the songs of the soul of each
one may resound to that of ours.
If we pause to look about US to see
where we are and what We are doing,
we will observe first the manner in
which the call Ito work has been re-
sponded to, how steadily forward we
are moving, how general seems the
desire to lift-to lift noi only those
about US but those who sit in the
shadow across the sea.
Since the keynote of the church is
forward, no manner OF pessimism
shall hold its hand of progress.
Breathes there man in our con-
gregation who cannot feel the mighty
current of progress swelling through
his being. who does not feel with the
poet as he wends his way to service,
And the hour shall be filed with
music,
With songs and praise and prayer
And the burdens of life are lifted
