@seekjustice Yes, the words are more similar to the older hymns.  I suppose this is something that only someone who has studied music extensively would notice, but the style of music is rather different from that of the traditional hymns.  I can’t analyze it, as my brother could.  I can only have a vague notion that something doesn’t sound ri…[Read more]

I just looked up “How Deep the Father’s Love” and it was only written thirty years ago, which surprised me because I thought it was much older than that! It uses really old language and it was written as a hymn, rather than a more modern worship song (and I thought it was written by Wesley or something 😛 )

I believe I’ve heard all…[Read more]

@seekjustice Don’t take for certain what I said about “How Deep the Father’s Love.”  I actually don’t remember what it sounds like or any of the lyrics or anything.  I don’t think it’s in our hymnbook, and that’s why I don’t know it better than I do.  I have no real idea whether it’s a bridge hymn or not. 😉  That was just a guess.

@seekjustice Oh yes, no, my headache’s gone, thankfully! 😀

Yes, I know most of those.  I think “How Deep the Father’s Love” might be what we call a “bridge” hymn, and we don’t sing it possibly for that reason.  I’m not sure.  I’ve heard it a couple of times when we go to conferences and stuff.  “Come Thou Fount” is one we sing quite often. 🙂 …[Read more]

@rochellaine

You did say you had a headache so I thought you might have gone to bed earlier. Obviously not though 😛

None of us are particularly musically inclined, so not really, but I do love when we do similar things at Youth group.

Well, some of the hymns we sing are “Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing” (one of my favourites) “Amazing Grace”…[Read more]

@seekjustice Ooooh!!  I just got your document!  Haha, it would be very unusual for me to be asleep at ten thirty p.m., wouldn’t it? 😛

I just spent a lovely hour and a half singing hymns with a couple of my sisters and brothers at the piano. 😀 😀 😀  Do you ever do that with siblings or friends?  I wonder if you know many of the same hymns we…[Read more]

@seekjustice Oh, haha!  How silly of me.  Of course June 1st would be Sunday for you too.  So you get to start a day before I do, but you end before I do too. 🙂

Not really.  Talking to you about singing groups last night reminded me of a singing group I like, so I’ve listened to a couple of songs by a folk type singing group from the 50s…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Okay 😀 (I forgot again. tis Sunday for you)

Technically I do start a day before you, but today’s July 2nd, so I’m still starting a day late 😛

Listening to anything interesting lately?

@seekjustice I can chat for a little bit, but I’ve got a headache, so I might randomly decide to take a nap without giving you notice. 😉  Just warning you ahead of time. 😛

Did you realize that both times this year Camp NaNoWriMo started on a Sunday for me and a Monday for you, so you got to start day of and I have to wait? 😛

@rochellaine @jenwriter17

Anyone around today?

@rochellaine Oaky 🙂
Oh wow, you read the whole thing already?! 😀

@rochellaine

Sapphilon does sound pretty, I have to admit. But its just my opinion that any of them starting with a Q don’t sound that great.

Neither am I professional shipper (and yes, there surely must be such things). I don’t usually come up with these sort of things 😉

@seekjustice 😛 The first one I thought of was Sapphilon, which feels like a floral name, and would go with their theme of floral language.  Two simpler ones I thought of were Quire and Querde, but I don’t think those sound quite right. 🙂  Anyway, I’m not an expert shipper, (Oh yes, I’m sure there is such a thing,) just a homeschooled writer w…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Haha 😛

I’m happy to call them Sapphire and Quillon but some people like to squash names together and I’m interested in how I can do it 😛

@seekjustice I read your blog post.  Apparently you’re trying to think of a ship name for Sapphire and Quillon? 😀

@jenwriter17 @valtmy It’s late, but I’ll be here for a short while. 🙂  Are either of you working?

Jen, I just submitted my comments on your document.  I’d made them earlier as I was reading, but didn’t complete them until now just to be sure it was fine with you.

@rochellaine Yay, awesome! You can definitely leave comments if you’d like. 🙂

@jenwriter17 Cool. 🙂

I’m reading your book today.  Do you want comments or am I just reading it for fun? 😉

@rochellaine Wow, that is REALLY interesting! I’ll have to research that subject more, I’m really curious 😉

@rochellaine

All right 😀 Bye! I’ll see you another day 😛
