You can’t beat this combination–a beach in Hawaii, a classic hymn by Fanny Crosby, and students from Fountainview Academy to perform it: He Hideth My Soul.
As of today, I need a few dozen hymns to fill the cart with Your Favorite Hymns. So step right up, don’t be shy!
This is a great and encouraging song. Today looks like another busy day for me, but I will try to get some suggestions headed that wayl
Thanks, Erlene.
You’ve got to love those Fanny Crosby hymns. Well, everybody does, don’t they?
Here are some items for the hymn request cart:
– For All the Saints.
– Come, Holy Ghost.
– I Love You Lord Today.
– We Have Come Into This House.
The two last ones sometimes have versions that are agonizingly slow; that’s not the way they should be sung. They don’t have to be rip-snorters, but they should be easily sung and kept time to by an ordinary congregation. I’ve heard a couple of renditions of each of them during which you could go out to the rest room at the beginning of a stanza and come back in time to sing the end of the stanza. (Sorry to be so graphic. Maybe I should have said “out to the gift shop” or “out to the water fountain” or something.)
I try not to use songs that are glacially paced.
Worshipping God!
