Worship

 

Worship isn't lost on the Deaf.  I've known this for a long, long time.

In 1982, while attending a Prayer seminar, taught by Dick Eastman, I remember him asking,
"How many of you worship and praise the Lord, when you're alone?"

During the next break, I went to him, when people were making comments, and/or asking questions, and told him that I appreciated that question.  I mentioned that, being totally Deaf, I can be alone, sitting in a sold out stadium or in a crowd.

I, then, told him that, having what is generally referred to, by the Deaf people, as "head noise," I can sing praises, while nobody, around me hears a thing.

These thoughts came to me, tonight, as I was sitting and the chorus, "Here I am to worship...Here I am to bow down..." began running, like a scratched record, through my mind.

I just noticed that, at the foot of this page, it mentions music and I've told people, for years, that my "music" is Southern Gospel (as well as a few old hymns and some country from the '60's).  This is all listeend to on WGARY, which is my radio statoin.
