‘Alleluiah, Sing to Jesus’ (‘Hyfrydol’)

I’ve always loved this Welsh hymn–Alleluiah, Sing to Jesus: also known by its native name, Hyfrydol. How we used to belt this one out in Sunday school! Sung here by the choir at Chet Valley Church. Background sets by God the Father.

How about another hymn? This is one I love to play on my harmonica. It’s Hyfrydol in Welsh, and Alleluiah, Sing to Jesus in English. Sung hear by the choir at Chet Valley Church.

I know I post it fairly often, but I find it greatly comforting. I hope you do, too.

‘Alleluiah, Sing to Jesus’

No hymn requests having been received (Where did they go?), I’ll dip into my personal store: Alleluiah, Sing to Jesus. The Welsh melody, “Hyfrydol,” is used for a number of hymns, each with its own set of lyrics. Sing here by St. Michael’s Singers, at Coventry Cathedral.

‘Alleluiah! Sing to Jesus’

Alleluiah! Sing to Jesus, here sung by St. Michael’s Singers at Coventry Cathedral, is one of many hymns that go with the Welsh melody called “Hyfrydol”–composed in 1830 by Rowland H. Prichard when he was just 19 years ago. Did he ever dream that people would sing it in churches all over the world?

‘Alleluiah, Sing to Jesus’

The Welsh melody “Hyfrydol” goes with several different hymns and this is one of them–Alleluiah, Sing to Jesus, performed here by St. Michael’s Singers at Coventry Cathedral.

We’re open for hymn requests, everybody, if you’ve got any.

Hymn: ‘Hyfrydol’

We’ll have a hymn now. It can’t hurt.

Please pray for us.

The traditional Welsh melody, Hyfrydol, goes with more hymns than I can list. Here it is–along with gorgeous video of the seaside–as Alleluiah, Sing to Jesus, sung by the choir at St. Mary’s Church in Scarborough, England. I love to play this hymn on my harmonica.
