Reaching Back to Christmas

Look at this flaming mess we call our world today! Anyone would think we didn’t have a Savior.

As I tried to pray just now, this came into my mind–Hark the Herald Angels Sing. Yeah, I know it isn’t Christmas anymore. But then it’s always Christmas, if Jesus Christ is born to us, in our hearts, every day. Read the lyrics: don’t they apply to all 365 days of the year?

“Oh, what’s that poor fool doing, trotting out a Christmas carol in March?”

Well, I think we need it! I know I do.

Sung by the Yoder Family. I say, Amen.

By Request, ‘Take Thou My Hand, O Father’

This is a hymn requested by Susan, but I lost the original link in a welter of email, so I hope I’ve somehow come up with what was asked for: Take Thou My Hand, O Father, sung by the Yoder Family.

‘Christ the Lord is Risen Today’

Happy Easter, everybody! Jesus Christ is risen! Sin is conquered, death is undone. This is the beginning of a new Creation.

Christ the Lord is Risen Today, sung by the Yoder Family. Sing so God can hear us.

By Request, ‘Christ the Lord is Risen Today’

Yes, I know I posted this hymn just the other day. But Erlene requested it just now, Easter is coming, and this is surely one of the Easter hymns–Christ the Lord is Risen Today, written by Charles Wesley in 1739; sung here by the Yoder family.

With gorgeous photos of God’s handiwork, proclaiming His glory and His love, and His ever-present nearness to us.

‘Christ the Lord is Risen Today’

Hymn by Charles Wesley, 1739, Christ the Lord is Risen Today–one of the all-time classic Easter hymns, here sung a capella by the Yoder Family from St. John’s, Michigan. Yes, I know it’s not Easter yet. But we can always play this hymn again on Easter Sunday.
