‘Faith of Our Fathers’ (Fountainview)

Faith of Our Fathers–I can hardly believe we used to sing this in assembly at high school, until the Supreme Court clued us in that “religion,” except for secular humanism, is not allowed in public places. Later they decided abortion was all right. Then some other things I will not mention.

Was it a different world? What happened to it while I slept?

Anyway, here’s the hymn, sung by the kids at Fountainview Academy.

Would you believe we used to sing this at assembly in high school? It’s true! That it isn’t true anymore is our great loss.

Here it is, lyrics accompanied by organ and piano–a very happy combination–Faith of Our Fathers, a lovely old classic from 1864. Feel free to provide your own vocals.

Would you believe we used to sing this hymn in high school assembly? That was before we all learned that two or three atheists have the power to silence several hundred Christians.

Anyway, here’s Tennessee Ernie with Faith of Our Fathers.
