Music in his soul

Tonight Dad sang with me!!!!

I ran across this youtube video www.youtube.com/watch?v=CrZXz10FcVMand decided to try the idea of "validation therapy" with Dad. AMAZING! He has been particularly non-cognizant in recent days and so I thought I would try singing to him.

Jesus is a rock in a weary land, just a stare.

Life's Evening Sun, again, more gazing at my face.

I'll Fly Away, and I paused after a phrase and he supplied "In the Morning." I sang it again and this time, he sang more!

Next, Beautiful Star of Bethlehem, and he sang HARMONY!
I said, "Vi and her boys used to sing that one." He nodded.

Then he closed his eyes--that's the signal that he's done...so I sang Victory in Jesus by myself. His eyes opened at the end of the song, "That sounded nice." And his eyes closed again. He was done for this time, but I will try again!

I know there is music in his soul!
