During this time of fear and uncertainty in the COVID-19 wilderness, I\u2019ve decided to do something a little different. I\u2019m going to be daily using my blog to share texts and videos of hymns that pass along hope and comfort until the restrictions are lifted, and we can worship in our buildings once again. I hope you find them to be encouraging and edifying during this time.

Take care, everyone. Wash your hands. And keep the faith.<\/em><\/p>\n

Here is a fantastic Easter hymn. Pardon the nature of the recording, but I love the music of St. Bartholemew\u2019s Church in New York City. Hymnary.com says this about Jean Tisserand:<\/p>\n
