By Request, ‘O, God, Our Help in Ages Past’
Phoebe asked for this one–O, God, Our Help in Ages Past, a classic hymn by Isaac Watts, published in 1719 and still loved today. Sung here by the Sharon Mennonite Bible Singers.

By Request, ‘At the Cross’
Requested by Erlene–At the Cross, sung by the congregation at The Church of God. This is a classic written by Isaac Watts, published in 1707… and still going strong!
By Request, ‘Joy to the World’
Requested by Phoebe: Joy to the World, performed by Celtic Woman with a great big orchestra to back them up. Words by Isaac Watts; music by–well, no one’s entirely sure. It might be a very old melody that had been kicking around for a few centuries. But now it’s permanently wedded to Watts’ lyrics.
