I like that Amen! Have to listen again the whole thing…

hmm… where did I hear the music at the beginning and the end?? Sounds familiar.

When I was getting my grad degree music composition one of the things I did as a self assigned project was to develop various “amen” endings.

That’s nice. In my hometown church in India, we used to sing different Amen’s! It’s in Tamil.
