I tried not to laugh as I read this.  I remember one time when I was in 
college.  My friend Denise and I were going in from the back of a church 
where our singers group were guests.  Anyway we always ran in to It's Your 
Song Lord by Sandy Patty.  Anyway this particular day, someone had left the 
left side of the double doors to the sanctuary closed and of course I was on 
Denise's left side.  Well, I hit the door with full force and the crack of 
it was heard everywhere.  I didn't fair as well as Sandy, but still after 10 
minutes of resting in a back room finished the service and I think I had a 
solo that day.  Way to go Sandy!!!!!!
For unto us a child is born.  Unto us a son is given.
