Wedding Forum - Hymns...

sorry not very good with hymns...can't the vicar suggest good ones?x

I have chosen Love Divine, that's a nice hymn

Thanks annalambchop :) Will go look that up xxx

lol Becca - was just reading through the words to that one :D xxx

I wondered that Alice as I love that. Might see if I can get someone to sing it while we are signing the register

Lol Im stuck with this too...tho I have quite a while to sort it out. Im having trouble trying to find hymns most people will know as I really want people to sing! Morning has broken is a good one most people know but we need to choose 3 altogether for some reason. All the ones I used to know from brownies, none of h2b's family know. I did want "make me a channel of your peace" I found a website I can post on your profile it gives suggestions and it says this one would be good as a 3rd hymn during the signing of the register. xx

Just about to post a 2nd link on your page this one is probably a bit better and has midi files for you to listen to. xx

I was just saying last night the two hymns that I'd like to have are Old rugged cross (as it was my granny's favorite) and Amazing Grace as again my granny liked it and my little girl is grace and the hymn is generally just an old fave of mine lol7

Old rugged cross isnt exactly lovey dovey...

On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,
the emblem of suffering and shame;
and I love that old cross where the dearest and best
for a world of lost sinners was slain.
Refrain:
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross,
till my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
and exchange it some day for a crown.

2. O that old rugged cross, so despised by the world,
has a wondrous attraction for me;
for the dear Lamb of God left his glory above
to bear it to dark Calvary.
(Refrain)

3. In that old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine,
a wondrous beauty I see,
for 'twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died,
to pardon and sanctify me.
(Refrain)

4. To that old rugged cross I will ever be true,
its shame and reproach gladly bear;
then he'll call me some day to my home far away,
where his glory forever I'll share.
(Refrain)

But generally its about remaining true and faithful so i think we'll be able to pull it off lol

Thank you Dee, I shall go and have a little listen :) xxx

Blondie - if you type it into tube of you it has a lovely version by the Wells Cathedral Choir, sent shivers down my spine xxx

I was thinking about which hymns people would be most likely to know (you got me thinking there annalambchop) that's one of the reasons I went for Morning Has Broken, if people don't know it as a hymn they tend to know it as the Cat Stevens version - looks like it could be 'All Things Bright And Beautiful' and then downloading 'Love Divine' for the register signing
xxx

Well it is all about truth and fidelity Stacey ;) Is a lovely hymn though xxx

Oh your page is restricted blondie so not able to at the oment. xx

If I was doing it in a church would have had Jerusalem! My dad used to sing it to us when we were babies. Very stirring! lol xx

I think we have decided to have Morning has broken, Silent Night (december wedding) and Make me a channel of your peace. We have a childrens choir so hopefully they will make up for ones that dont want to sing. xx

awwwww i love it!

You can have my class Jennebel!!!! lol
Looking at all these hymns and they are still what we do at school now!



Stacey - My Grandad loved that hymn too. I used to sing it off by heart with him when I was little. Just brought a tear to my eye!! x
