favorite hymn?

Question

does anyone have a favorite church hymn? if so, why do you like it and give some of the lyrics to it. mine is I Surrender All because lately i've had a lot of problems that i can't seem to deal with. this song teaches me that i should just surrender it all to our Lord. if anyone is intrested in finding a new church to attend, email me. my church youth group is growing and we are trying to get more people to join our church. if you are 14 years of age or older, we're still looking for people to join our choir. trust me you'll love it. God Bless.

Answer 1

i cant remember what its called but the chorus is "dance dance wherever you may be i am the lord of the dance said he and i'll lead you all wherever you may be and i'll lead you all in the dance said he" for me it is a powerful song i dont know why i just get this feeling when i hear it or sing it. i am an active member in the first united methodist church i go to and i atually am in the youth choir there. i liked your question!! good luck at recruiting members!! May the Lord be with you!! and Merry Christmas!!

All Things Bright and Beatiful. I first heard about this Hymn years
ago from the Title of The Vet Stories on Television, The James
Herriott Saga of The Yorkshire Moors Area in The late 1930s_40s.I loved those Stories very much,and when I heard the
Hymn I enjoyed that as well simple and concise.
All things Bright and Beautifuf, all Creatures great and small.
All Things Bright and Wonderful The Lord God Made Them All.

Answer 3

Cool! That just happens to be my favorite, too. That was the song that popped into my head when I finally accepted Jesus. It's been my favorite since then. I also really like the story behind it. *EDIT* My second favorite is the Hallelujah Chorus. I really liked that one ever since I first sang it in a school choir a couple of years ago. That song is the best tradition of the music department at the high school I go to. Every year for the Christmas concert, all the choirs sing the song together at the end of the concert, accompanied by the advanced orchestra. Just being part of that huge wall of sound is awesome. But, Amazing Grace is still my favorite. :)

Answer 4

Well I'm Catholic so we listen to some pretty traditional hymns. Some of my favorite are: "Sing a New Church," "Here I Am, Lord," and several spanish ones such as "Pescador de Hombres" (there's an english version too but I can't remember it at the moment).

Answer 5

Lift High the Cross: Have not heard it in years as the Church I go to now uses current music as opposed to hymns, but it still comes to mind on a fairly regular basis.

Answer 6

One of them is This is my fathers world and the reason is because it is the first hymn I remember hearing as a very small child in my church and it makes me feel safe, like a child in church again This is my fathers world and to my listening ears the hopes and fears of all the years are gone when He is near

Answer 7

"It Is Well (with my soul)" because it affirms that your faith will sustain you through extreme grief,loss, pain,and tragedy. I dont know the name of the composer, but he was a man who wrote this hymn while travelling by ship over the spot where his wife and daughter had perished in a shipwreck years before.

Answer 8

In the Garden of Edan. That rocks.

Answer 9

Rock of ages, cleft for me, let me hide myself in thee.
I like this song because in this world we live in, we need a cleft to protect us.
