Going down the list of your favorite hymns as submitted by you, the readers, we come to another beautiful hymn with the performers not listed–O To Be Like Thee. Very sweet, whoever you are.
It’s not too late to have your favorite hymns added to the list. Just leave a comment anywhere.
We’ve got over 40 of your favorite hymns on the list now, and we’re going to post each one of them. Don’t worry about being too late: the hymn shop’s always open.
This rendition of Be Still, My Soul is about the most beautiful I’ve ever heard–and I don’t know who’s singing it. But we know whose hand shaped the backgrounds, don’t we?
I have a nice long list, now, of your favorite hymns, and I’m going to post them all in the order in which I received them. And the list can be added to, so don’t think you missed your chance.
Requested by Lydia (I think): The Love of God, by the Mennonite Hour Singers. Gorgeous background sets by God the Father.
I’m listing your favorite hymns, dear readers, and I’m going to post them all, too, day by day. And the first one named is Amazing Grace. I hope you like this mellow rendition by Alan Jackson.
While I’m posting readers’ favorite hymns, we remain open for specific hymn requests. If you have a hymn you’d like to share, just leave a comment anywhere and we’ll do the rest.
We like to start every blogging day here with a hymn, and I like to post the hymns that you request. When left to my own devices, I’m afraid I tend to repeat myself and choose the same relatively few hymns again and again–because they’re my favorites. Light of the World, Hyfrydol, To Be a Pilgrim: well, what can I say?
I’d love to know what your favorite hymns are. I know it’s impossible to pick just one, so please feel free to list as many as you like.
I’ll keep track of the ones that are mentioned and will report to you which hymns seem to be the most popular. Don’t be bashful! If you only knew how hard it is to elicit a wide reader response… you’d wonder why I try. But I’m really interested in what you all have to say.
This sounds just like Sunday school–piano, congregation, and Bringing in the Sheaves, back when everybody knew what sheaves were. I like this Burl Ives version best.
They do like to rub our faces in it, don’t they?
Granted, French President “I feel pretty” Macron spent mere confetti, compared to what our President *Batteries Not Included spent on entertaining and decorating himself and his wife. Still–when was the last time you spent 30 grand on hair and makeup?
Well, God told Samuel to let the people have the king they wanted, and they’d be sorry.
Oh, BTW, Macron does have one thing Ol’ *Batteries Not Included didn’t have.
A throne. This popinjay-in-chief has got a throne.
I thought the French had more self-respect than that.
This is a hymn requested by Susan, but I lost the original link in a welter of email, so I hope I’ve somehow come up with what was asked for: Take Thou My Hand, O Father, sung by the Yoder Family.
Here’s a hymn to get us started on the day–Onward Christian Soldiers, performed by the students at Fountainview Activity.
Churches need more hymns like this.
This was the first hymn that popped into my head this morning, so I’m going with it–Morning Has Broken, sung by Orla Fallon.
God didn’t just create the first morning of the first day.
He re-creates it every day.
