Check out today's broadcast of Sing for Joy.
The first hymn, Praise to the Lord, is a very nice choral arrangement. The final hymn, "O God, Beyond All Praising", is a new one to me. It is set to the tune of a movement from Gustav Holst's The Planets, which nearly always brings me to the verge of tears. Go here to listen to the melody and sing along with the words.
"O God Beyond All Praising"
O God beyond all praising,
we worship you today
and sing the love amazing
that songs cannot repay.
Holst grew up in the church pictured above and sang in the choir. (All Saints, Cheltenham, England)
