I thought we didn't have to be song writers to bring a song.  I believe it
is just supposed to be something traditional that you would hear in a
service, or children's choir or something.  It seems a bit vague the way
they describe it.  I've thought of composing my own, but I'm not sure just
how that would go over with the group.  I've been songleading for about a
year now, but I still consider myself clueless about songleading.  I am the
cantor's accompanist, really.  But I hope that this program will help me
develop the skills I would need to continue my education as songleader and
possibly cantor.
