I notice that one of the songs you list is ‘gospel’ – also there was a title with ‘light’ mentioned. Dad and I were at a lovely concert yesterday afternoon: VOX was the main group and they also included some gospel singers. It was interesting to hear their interpretation of gospel vs. spiritual. Interestingly enough, the theme for the afternoon was ‘light’ – to some degree because of the the physical setting (huge windows on each side of the nave) but also due to spring, and the sense of life renewed.
