Angel Voices, Ever Singing!

Angel voices, ever singing round Thy throne of light, 
Angel harps, forever ringing, rest not day or night;
thousands only live to bless Thee, and confess The Lord of might!!

It's January 1, my family went to church to hear mass at the start of the 2014.

I was seated in the first pew with my family when a mom and a daughter came up and greeted my sister. They attend the same mass frequently. A young lady in her 16, armed with a smile, said hello in a soft but forceful utterance. Her speech is challenged. Her mother assisted her as she finds her seat.  Her vision is impaired.  My heart melted.

The mass started with an opening hymn.  The young lady I was seated next to sang at the top of her voice even how difficult it was. I was teary-eyed and felt that God was listening to this angelic voice in heaven...
