+Laurence McGonagle Thanks Laurence, we're hoping to create regular videos. We've got some fun ideas for future ones. We're currently working on one that's themed around a series of books called 1001 things to do before you die.
+Alice Cornes Yeah I think it was a passage from the Bible called Ephesians chapter 2 verses 1-10. He read it to a friend who was dying...but later himself thought more about the passage and realised that if it was true it was life changing. It speaks about how God offers people mercy and gives what we could never deserve.
Loads of fun filming this video. Big thanks to the team at Wembley and the FA for the tour and allowing me to film in Wembley. So fun!

Fcutdlady my mother was a huge football fan and we had this hymn played at her funeral, it seemed so fitting
Wonderful story about Abide With Me. Thanks for sharing that with us; a lot to think about there.

Abide with me 🙏
God bless and thank you
Thanks Winston for checking out the video. Glad you liked it.
Brilliant stuff!
+David Dargue Thanks David, enjoy watching the FA Cup Final.
Love this. Do you know how he became a Christian? I'd love to know the story of how he got that hope in the first place

I wonder how long this tradition will survive.
Hopefully forever. I'm not British, but I know this song still has a rightful place as a reminder of our common humanity.
It’ll die if the current clowns attending FA Cup finals refuse to sing it
Good video Dan!
+Rohit Trivedi Thanks Rohit, glad you enjoyed it. It was fun putting it together.
Bill Shanklys quote I think was merely an expression towards his love for the game!
Better than the navy hymn (Aka eternal father strong to save) using sign off of KHQ TV 6 in 1970's and 80's
Love the fact there's no dislikes😁
The only part it doesn't include is why it is sung at the cup final.
Where is the man in the white suit,I remember years ago
Road to wembley
Love the fact there's no dislikes😁
