From Ken: Our first song speaks to our need for God, in all circumstances and seasons of life: 

“Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you” (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18). “Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving” (Colossians 4:2).

In Numbers 6:23, Aaron and his sons were commanded by God to pronounce God’s blessing on the people. Our second song pronounces Number 6:24-26 as a blessing that we are delighted to sing over you tonight.
