"Sing out--within reason..."

Just before our weekly grade school religion class headed off to Mass, our teacher told us, "I want to hear all of you singing the hymns.  God gave each of you a voice with which to sing."

"True," I thought.  "God gave each of us a voice.  However, he didn't give each of us perfect pitch.  Hopefully, you--and he--won't object if some of us sing louder than others."
