Everyday the nanny's pray and sing at 5am 7am 12pm 5pm and 8pm. It really is a beautiful sound. Toddlers playing and singing, while nanny's pray and sing all throughout the orphanage. I can't really explain it but it definitely touched my heart. I could identify the hymns and song's they were singing, and even when I couldn't the world Hallelujah is the same no matter what language you speak.

Dictionary.com explains it the following way...
hal·le·lu·jah /ˌhæləˈluyə/[hal-uh-loo-yuh] noun
1.Praise ye the Lord!
2.an exclamation of “hallelujah!”
3.a shout of joy, praise, or gratitude.

There's a Bethany Dillion song that says "Whatever's in front of me, help me to sing hallelujah..." I feel like I have always tried to get and live this phrase, but these women get it and live that phrase everyday. It truly was heartwarming and a blessing to see this play out throughout the day.

Tomorrow we are at the orphanage all day again. Look forward to spending time with the beautiful children.
