What song is playing in your head today? I find if I take a minute to sit in silence, there is always a song playing in my mind. I wonder if this is true for everyone.
When I check the song in my head, I can usually feel its connection to my attitude. I’ve been with my grandson for a few days, and he has favorites from my repertoire. When he brushes his teeth, I have to sing the Raffi song, “When you wake up in the morning and it’s quarter to one. You think you’ll have a little fun, you brush your teeth, Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch.” When I tuck him into bed, I sing the lullaby “Tell me why.”
I love these songs, but my ear worm this morning comes from the hymns I sang in the choir loft on Sunday.
“Blest are They”
“Rejoice and be glad!
Blessed are you!
Holy are you.
Rejoice and be glad,
yours is the kingdom of God.”

A simple tune, a sacred message, not bad for a wake up call in the morning.
What songs become the background playlist for your life? Are they joyful?
