The Bible is historical fiction, yhwh is a fictional character.

Thanks for letting us join you! Merry Christmas! Wayne and Dawn Smith.

Thanks for the message

This was actually excellent. Thank you so much! So good.

Much appreciated. One of my favorite hymns.

Great info- thank you so much.

We’ve chosen this hymn for our Baby’s upcoming baptism. Thank you for sharing this history and highlighting it!

Thank you Karen! Regardless of the fact this was recorded three years ago, it, as all of our hymns, are timeless. It is today’s hymnody in The Daily Treasury of Pray (Pray Now in the app) . I learn so much from you and appreciate the time you’ve invested into these timeless lessons on the hymnody in video format. Also, it was so great to meet you in Milwaukee at the LWML National Convention 2023.

Good service today.

Very interesting, Thank you

Thank you for your commentaries on the various hymns. Our church does print out the scripture verses, and the hymn of the day for the following Sunday, so we could prepare for next Sunday. By the way, my church is in California, so I’m afraid I can’t sing the The hymn along with you guys.

I like the TLH Our Father Thou in heaven above. The late Pastor Martin Taddey sang that hymn during Matins. When I visited a Catholic Church, I heard the organist play that tune. I could not believe my ears. I asked the organist what he was playing. He knew I was Lutheran and showed me the music. It was Luther’s hymn.

Interesting. I did not know it the Anglicans as well as the Christians Non-conformists, who only chanted Psalms and did not sing hymns. Isaac Watts, a nonconformist, complained about only singing Psalms. Someone told him in response: young man, give us something better. And that was the start of Isaac Watts writing of hymns.

Thank you for this. We sang this hymn in church this past Sunday during communion. All the verses. So powerful and the musical line beautiful.

Go any further and you'll have me thinking I belong to a Southern Baptist Church! Great sermon Pastor!

Thank you for sharing. You mentioned this hymn had originally seven verses. I would love to read all seven verses. Do you know where I would find that information?

Some people on TH-cam have posted this as a Catholic hymn with the wordings from all thy saints. So I thought this was a Catholic hymn. I did a little searching, and think that the author was actually Anglican. We sang this hymn during communion at the Lutheran Church of Our Savior in Cupertino, California. June 11.

Greetings from Pakistan

I am looking for a hymn to sing at the baptism of our congregation’s adult Syrian refugee . Thank you for presenting this hymn.

Forgive the poor quality of the video for much of the service. We had technical issues.

Wonderful talk, but, uh - "Where's the beef"? Would have loved to sing it with you. Blessings.

Almost scrolled right by this video (because of the outfit) thought this was Catholic

Thank you for this. What a blessing to hear these explanations of these precious hymns.

Love this!

Thank you so very much for you’re work on the history of our hymnody and for sharing on TH-cam. I am greatly helped through your work. God’s blessings to you

I follow you from Norman Oklahoma (Trinity Lutheran) and have learned so much about our hymnody through your explanations. I’m thankful for your efforts and for sharing your knowledge of our great Lutheran hynmnody

Thanks be to GOD for this, the story of Jacob and the gift of forgiveness that GOD gave him. Thanks for the online service, a refreshment for the week Grace Lutheran Church and Pastor Seifert!

Thank you Karen. That was wonderful. I've never sang that before, but never to late to start.

The dishonest steward, nor did the rich land owner seek the kingdom of God. No one in this parable is right, there all crooked. But you sweet brother live by every word that comes from the mouth of God…

Another thing about this hymn is if you sing it and do not look at the footnotes at the bottle of the page, you would think it was an old hymn from the 16, 17, or 1800s, not 1981.

Love this hymn. Lutheran hymns rule

I always love the background you provide on these hymns! To clarify a little, only the text to the hymn is new. The hymn tune, Beach Spring, was written in 1844 and has been used with other text as well, including LSB 848: Lord, Whose Love through Humble Service. ✝️
