I’ve been reading and writing nooze for hours today and just can’t take any more. How about a hymn instead?
God of Grace and God of Glory, performed by the Uzee Brown Society of Choraliers, is a Welsh hymn I hadn’t heard before. The melody, “Cwm Rhondda” (traditional Welsh), is attached to several classic hymns.
Here’s our old friend, the Welsh melody “Cwm Rhondda” again, this time to carry the lyrics, God of Grace and God of Glory–sung by the congregation and choir of Mount Olivet United Methodist Church. Again, you might want to turn up the volume. Maybe someone from the ACLU will hear it and have a conniption. Maybe someone will hear it and be saved.
Although these lyrics came out in 1930, the melody is Cwm Rhondda, traditional Welsh. Bread of Heaven is another well-loved hymn sung to this melody. God of Grace and God of Glory–make a joyful noise unto the Lord.
I’m early today because I have to go to the eye doctor and sit around in his waiting room all morning: but I wanted at least to post our daily hymn.
