By Request, ‘Wayfaring Stranger’

Beautiful, soul-stirring–thanks, Joshua, for requesting it! Wayfaring Stranger, sung by Simon Khorolskiy. Just about brought me to tears; but swordsmen can cry.

The singer’s Russian (click CC for English lyrics), the song’s traditional American, and the hymn request comes from Japan. That’s good globalism, and only Christianity has it.

By Request, ‘I Wonder as I Wander’

Requested by Susan, I Wonder as I Wander–an “epic version” by Simon Khorolskiy.

I have to admit my daily perusal of the nooze distresses me. Never has so much power–and wealth–been accumulated by so few: and their purposes are evil.

“But the Lord is our defense: Jesu, defend us!”  –King Alfred the Great

By Request, ‘Wings of Dawn’

Requested by Joshua, Wings of Dawn, by Simon Khorolskiye. It’s all in Russian, but the story is acted out–a search for God’s Word, as a treasure.

By Request, ‘In the Sweet By and By’

Requested by Joshua: In the Sweet By and By, sung by Simon Khorolskiy. We didn’t know he could sing American country music style! Thank you, Joshua.

By Request, ‘I Wonder As I Wander’

This was requested by my wife, who is not eligible to win our contest. I Wonder as I Wander, sung by Simon Khorolsky–one of his “epic versions” of popular hymns. Gorgeous background sets by God the Father.

‘Oh, the Deep Love of Jesus’

They called this an “epic version” of the hymn, Oh, the Deep Love of Jesus, and I can’t disagree: everything about it is superb. Simon Khorolskiy sings, Katie Gayduchik plays the violin, and the ocean in the background majestically shows off God’s handiwork.

It’s getting to be time to list some more of Your Favorite Hymns: the cart needs filling.

Encore! ‘Oh, the Deep Love of Jesus’

Susan requested another showing of this wonderful hymn, and here it is–Oh, the Deep Love of Jesus, with Katie Gayduchik on the violin and Simon Khorolskiy doing the singing. And glorious background sets by God the Father.

If we ever need that love, O Lord, we need it now.

Encore: ‘Oh! The Deep Love of Jesus’

I just had to hear this again: Oh! The Deep Love of Jesus. sung by Simon Khorolskiy (I think), with Katie Gayduchik on the violin. Ocean, beach, and hills by God the Father.
