Thank you, Joshua, for requesting this hymn, Tell It to Jesus–first time I’ve heard it. I don’t know who’s singing it, other than they’re described as “a Mennonite group,” but whoever you are–well done!

John Bunyan’s Hymn
I love this hymn and just have to post it now and then–To Be a Pilgrim, by John Bunyan, author of Pilgrim’s Progress. Performed by Maddy Prior and the Carnival Band. It’s the kind of hymn that adds some spark to your bark!
Also known as He Who Would Valiant Be.

By Request, ‘Living Water’
One of my favorite chapters in the Bible is John 4, in which Jesus meets the Samaritan woman at the well (“and he told me all things that ever I did!”) and tells her of the living water she can get from Him. This song is about that incident.
Requested by Erlene, Living Water by Carroll Roberson from his new album, Unchanging Love.

‘The Hallelujah Chorus’ (Why Not?)
We usually hear this around Christmas-time and Easter, but Jesus Christ is King of kings and Lord of lords all 365 days of the year. Any time’s a good time for The Hallelujah Chorus, from G.F. Handel’s The Messiah: performed by the Royal Choral Society.
