BTW, I took the time to read up on “Stand By Me”:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stand_by_Me_(Ben_E._King_song)

Ben E. King wrote it after a psalm and composed “church songs” routinely. So it’s not completely out of place in a religious ceremony.

And, even though much is made of the partly “American” ceremony with gospel being an American music genre, the Kingdom Choir is British.

The choir reminded me of that movie with whoopie goldberg where she has the nuns sing...”I will follow Him”.....
