How do I count measure 2 in the Old Rugged Cross? Is this it: 1 2 and 3?

[Carole Lee Doberneck]

Sorry I meant measure 3: counted like this? 1 2 and 3

[Mike]

Measure 3:

Beat 1 is a half note so you’d count it as

1 (2) 3 and

So the half note takes up Beats 1 and 2 and the last two 8th notes are beats 3 and.

If you still have questions please let me know.
