"Let me see your hands, musicians. Let me see your hands." Paul Bernard II has a practical way to bring the music to a halt: get everyone to stop touching their instruments.

It almost works. The band falls quiet, but a tambourine keeps rattling somewhere in the congregation. He scans the room, then recognizes the culprit: "Girl, Althea, I should have known it was you."

The playful exchange has brought roughly 730,000 views to the Short in a little over a day, far beyond the channel's usual start. The comments are much busier than usual, too, with viewers picking out his opening note, the lingering tambourine and that instant recognition of Althea. One viewer proposes adopting her name as a substitute for swearing; another says their own church actually has an Althea.

Church humor sits alongside the channel's more reflective Christian videos, including a recent personal testimony about intentional living and regret. Here, the encouragement comes with a very specific instruction: Althea must put the tambourine under the seat in front of her, with her hands where the preacher can see them.
