> first man walked down the aisle, singing alone, a capella, ending at the
> front of the sanctuary and facing the congregation.  He sang the verse
> through a couple of times, then a second man came from one side of the
> chancel, singing another part of the song and joined the first man in
> front.  Then the third man came from the other side of the chancel, singing
> a third part with the other two.  It was beautifully moving.
