They express exuberance in realizing the majesty of God and the mercy of Christ, the wholeness of reality and their new-found ability to participate in it. Songs proliferate. Hymns gather the voices of men, women, and children into century-tiered choirs. Moses sings. Miriam sings. Deborah sings. David sings. Mary sings. Angels sing. Jesus and his disciples sing. Paul and Silas sing. When persons of faith become aware of who God is and what he does, they sing. The songs are irrepressible. Quoted from Reversed Thunder: The Revelation of John &amp; the Praying Imagination by Eugene Peterson.<\/p>\n<p>God\u2019s word comes to us through a variety of ways in worship: reading scripture, preaching, prayer and meditation, and music. Music is a vital part of our worship services, intricately woven into the fabric, and carefully linking the texts for the day and the season of the church year. Congregational hymns, psalm singing, instrumental offerings, solos, and anthems by a variety of groups, both choral and instrumental, span centuries of sacred composition while blending diverse elements into a unified whole that seeks to glorify God and lift up the Word.<\/p>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text -->        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n                        <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_row themify_builder_row tb_lny8595 tf_w\">\n                        <div class=\"row_inner col_align_top tb_col_count_2 tf_box tf_rel\">\n                        <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_column tb-column col4-1 tb_jgn6008 first\">\n                    <!-- module image pro -->\n<div  class=\"module module-pro-image tb_gr6f008 filter-grayscale effect-glow  circle tf_textc   entrance-effect-fadeIn wow\" data-tf-animation=\"pulse\" data-lazy=\"1\" data-entrance-effect=\"fadeIn\" data-exit-effect=\"fadeOut\" >\n\t\n    <div class=\"image-pro-wrap tf_rel tf_overflow tf_inline_b\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"image-pro-flip-box-wrap tf_rel tf_w tf_overflow\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"image-pro-flip-box tf_rel\">\n\n\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/firstprestupelo.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/CHANCELLCHOIR-200x200.jpg\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" class=\"wp-post-image wp-image-3083\" title=\"CHANCELLCHOIR\" alt=\"CHANCEL CHOIR\" srcset=\"https:\/\/firstprestupelo.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/CHANCELLCHOIR-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/firstprestupelo.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/CHANCELLCHOIR-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"image-pro-overlay tf_hidden tf_abs\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"image-pro-overlay-inner\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"image-pro-entity image-pro-caption\">CHANCEL CHOIR<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div><!-- .image-pro-overlay -->\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n    <\/div><!-- .image-pro-wrap -->\n\n\t\n\t\n\t<\/div><!-- \/module image pro -->        <\/div>\n                    <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_column tb-column col4-3 tb_tt8c082 last\">\n                    <!-- module text -->\n<div  class=\"module module-text tb_f5wi280   \" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div  class=\"tb_text_wrap\">\n        <h3>Chancel Choir<\/h3><p>The Chancel Choir at First Presbyterian Church provides music for the 11:00 worship service each week and presents special musical services at Christmas and during Holy Week.
