Soon and Very Soon

The song Soon and Very Soon has been one I liked from various points in my life--singing it as a faculty at PCS, it's one of my favorite sending songs at church now, a Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir CD, etc. I've always thought I'd have it as one of my funeral songs.

So today I was watching the Michael Jackson memorial service that began with a gospel choir ooohing and then singing "Soon and very soon, we are going to see the king, Soon and very soon, we are going to see the king. . ." And from off the side here comes the casket with "the King of Pop".

Yeah, I think I'm going to have change my service plans now.

And no, I don't have my funeral planned on paper.

As soon as I saw the title of the post, I wondered if you'd seen it on that memorial today . . .guess so.
