Waddaya know? I’ve got three hymn requests stacked up. And you know what? I’m gonna post ’em all.
Let’s start with Ella Fitzgerald: Throw Out the Lifeline, sung by Ella Fitzgerald; requested by OhioChessFan.
(If I can post ’em all before I conk out…)
I think I posted this song recently, but no matter: if a reader requests it, I post it.
Requested by OhioChessFan: the Chuck Wagon Gang sings When the Roll Is Called Up Yonder.
Well, I hope we’re all there for that!
When you ask for hymns, I post ’em–and we got a bumper crop today.
Requested by Susan: O Happy Day, Rev. A. Brown leading the choir, at the First Baptist Church of Glenarden.
Here we have another hymn request from “Somebody” (identity concealed by WordPress, for no reason I can think of): Lamb of God, by Twila Paris.
Now excuse me for a bit, I have to do some editing.
I do wish WordPress would stop with the anonymity and let me know who’s posting comments, so I know whom to thank.
For Wayfaring Stranger, thanks, whoever you are.
Sung here by Johnny Cash.
Requested by Phoebe: I’ll Fly Away, sung by Alan Jackson.
I’m feeling a bit wrung-out today, so I really appreciate the hymns you send me. Trying to keep the ship afloat, as it were…
Requested by Susan: When the Man Comes Around, by Johnny Cash. You might call it the Book of Revelation, set to music.
There’s something about this song that demands to be taken seriously. Revelation has an urgent message; and maybe it’s time we started listening.
And changing our ways.
Here’s another hymn requested by Ohio Chess Fan: When the Roll Is Called Up Yonder, sung by the men’s choir at the New Apostolic Church, South Africa.
I ought to post this hymn more often. What do you think?
Here’s another sweet hymn, provided by Stacey Plays Hymns–Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing, requested by one of my friends at Chessgames.com, “Ohio Chess Fan.” Waterfalls provided by the hand of God the Father.
I never heard this gospel song before: very sweet, it caresses the heart: On the Wings of a Dove, sung by Bird Youmans… requested by “Someone.” I do wish WordPress would give commenters’ names, so I could thank them.
