Hallelujah, Amen



Today while waiting for the subway
I watched a group of guys praying aloud in a circle. I was a bit wary; people do some strange things in the subways, maybe it’s the grimy heat that does people in? I’ll never know.

So they said their amens and then suddenly they broke into the most beautiful five-part harmony.

Their voices bounced off the subway tiles and echoed down the tunnels. Most of the commuters ignored it and went about their business, but it made me grin like a goof all the way home.
