Several years ago, our priest asked me to write a hymn for St. Barnabas, the patron saint of our church. He meant St. Barnabas Church, but the hymn I wrote was about the man himself. Yesterday was St. Barnabas day, but I went to another church as my niece was being confirmed, and so missed the performance of the hymn. But yesterday evening we had a dinner at the church, and because the hymn was suitable to the occasion, we sang the hymn after dinner. Special moment for me! It feels a bit strange to hear people loudly singing your own words, but I could get used to it.
