By Request, ‘Jesus Shall Reign’

Requested by Joshua.

This lovely hymn was written by Isaac Watts in 1719 and is still well-known today. It echoes Psalm 72. Performed by Hymns of Grace.

The hymn shop is open. Come in early and beat the crowds.

Encore, ‘To God Be the Glory’

While I rack my brain, trying to chase down a news story that may elude me after all, enjoy this high-spirited, lively performance of To God Be the Glory. I do love these churchofgod.com videos–this is a congregation that knows how to rejoice.

I don’t seem to have much gas today, but this hymn has perked me up a little. May God’s Spirit feed us all.
