Two Songs I Used to Like

I went to Paraguay during my mission, and they loved to sing, "The Spirit of God," however, instead of uptempo and fast like it should be sung (sang? past tense of sing is singed? sang? sung? had been sunging?), they sang it like 45 beats per minute, and it took about a half hour to sing the whole thing.  It was tedious at best.  Then, they also sang, wait, no, sung ... hold up, sanged ... aww screw it ... Then they also PERFORMED it every other week, so it kinda lost its flavor to me. Before my mission I really enjoyed the song, then afterwards, ehhh, not so much!

Since returning stateside many years ago, it has regained some of its flavor, but still has not returned to its former glory in my mind. 

That being said, someone requested it yesterday and so I thought I would transcribe it.  Here it is.

The Spirit of God

Also, in the same spirit of , "I sang it too much on my mission and therefore wasn't quite as cool as it once was," I present, "Called to Serve."  a.k.a, the missionary theme song.

There are some low b's and some c's coupled with e flats that cannot be played on the uke with normal tuning ( i think it is called re-entrant tuning? - someone correct me if i am wrong)

Here is Called to Serve

Thanks to all for requests.  I may not get to them as quick as I did for Mr. Beckstead. ps ... I think there is a Beckstead in my Tacoma, WA stake, are you the same?
