It’s been a long time since I’ve heard this hymn. You may recognize the melody as Finlandia, by Sibelius.
Be Still My Soul, performed by two students at Fountainview Academy… Sorry, I couldn’t resist an evergreen forest under a blanket of snow.

‘Depth of Mercy’
Here’s another hymn I’d never heard before–Depth of Mercy, sung by students at Fountainview Academy. (Just don’t ask me how they got the grand piano up there onto the brink of a cliff…)
By Request, ‘Amazing Grace’
A hymn request to start the day–SlimJim asked for Amazing Grace. Let’s see how the kids from Fountainview Academy handle it. They’re playing at a farm in California.
The soloist is amazing. Has God given her a voice, or what?
‘Shall We Gather at the River’
No hymn requests this morning, so I’m on my own. How about Shall We Gather at the River, by kids at Fountainview Academy?
There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the Most High. God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved. –Psalm 46: 4-5
By Request, ‘Be Thou My Vision’
Here’s another one of those coincidences that happen a lot around here. Ina (in Scotland) requested Be Thou My Vision; and just a few minutes later, the bells at St. Francis’, just across the street, played it. Maybe they aren’t coincidences.
The hymn is 13 hundred years old and still going strong… all over the world.
Performed here by students at Fountainview Academy.
‘Onward, Christian Soldiers’
This is the first hymn that came to my mind today–Onward, Christian Soldiers, performed by the kids at Fountainview Academy. Sabine Baring-Gould wrote scores of 19th-century hymns; Arthur Sullivan, of Gilbert & Sullivan, wrote the music.
‘Your Grace Still Amazes Me’
I have just time to post a hymn before I go rushing out to the eye doctor appointment that I totally forgot about until it was too late to get it postponed.
Your Grace Still Amazes me–sung by the students at Fountainview Academy.
‘I Sing the Mighty Power of God’
I never heard this hymn sung to this melody before; I would never have recognized it. But that happens with classic hymns.
I Sing the Mighty Power of God, performed by students from Fountainview Academy on their tour of Hawaii.
‘Amazing Grace’ (Fountainview Academy)
First hymn I spotted this morning–and how could I do better? Amazing Grace, performed by students from Fountainview Academy–if this doesn’t move you, better check and make sure you’re still alive.
The hymn shop is open for requests all day, all night…
‘What a Friend We Have in Jesus’
This was one of my favorite hymns in Sunday school. We can enjoy it while we try to figure out how the students at Fountainview Academy brought the piano through the woods, down the hill, and onto the shore of the lake.
