I thought Mt Zion was full gospel for some reason.

No, thank goodness. I really dislike country music, but I enjoyed how he wove it into his sermon. He did read the lyrics out loud. I could still hear a country twang in my head though.

My mother, right before she died, told us to play that at her funeral. We played it and it was awesome. Not a big country fan either. The message at her memorial service....'I Hope You Dance'

I don't like country music at all, but I love "I Hope You Dance".

I told my daughters the first time I ever heard this song that I want it played at my funeral.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
