Re: Song about 2 little children found outside a church house door

Hi Lfilback, You're testing my Google skills, but I found it :) The song is called "Two Little Orphans", "Two Little Children", or "The Two Orphans". Here are the a few different variations I pulled up. As is often the case with these songs that are passed from generati...

Re: Song called THE GREATEST NATION

Here you go. This is the last track from their Through the Years Album (Volume 4) ; it was originally on their 2011 album "Through the Years". She's hated by those who defy liberty, And they'll burn Old Glory while shouting with glee; But when disaster strikes in a faraway land, America is...

Welcome to the Hymn Discussion Board!

Back when I started this site in 1995 it was dedicated, as the logo says, to "seek and save what was lost". During these years, I've gotten to learn a bit about hymnody and hymnology. So, for the first time in 28 years I'm adding a new discussion board to this site to help answer some of t...

Re: Need LIST & Lyrics Of Gospel Christmas Songs

Thanks for writing! A while back I published a few pages on this site with classic hymns. These were the Christmas-related ones: Angels We Have Heard on High Hark, the Herald Angels Sing Joy to the World O Come All Ye Faithful O Holy Night Silent Night The First Noel Each of these pages has lyrics, ...

Listen to amazing hymns for free on Spotify!

I'm approaching old-timer status. I'm not old enough to remember buying hymns on records, but I do remember buying hymns on cassette tape, and then CDs, and then as MP3s. From time to time I'll ask my Amazon Echo to play hymns, either from Amazon Music or Pandora. The playlists are okay, but one thi...

Re: Imagine if you will/sing a song for a baby.....need more info on these songs please

lol...absolutely. I actually started this site in the mid 1990s with the hope that people on the Internet would help me find a number of "lost hymns" I was looking for in the process of editing a hymnal. You can still see what the original site looked like here . I was actually in the proc...

Re: Hymn Tune: Teach me my God and King by G Herbert

Hi Coolactual, Unfortunately I looked and looked and couldn't find it anywhere. Hopefully someone else will pick up the search. FYI, my favorite tool for searches like this is this tool at Hymnary.org that lets you search by melody. https://hymnary.org/melody/search Unfortunately when I keyed in you...

Re: Imagine if you will/sing a song for a baby.....need more info on these songs please

Hi Dean, I am impressed that you haven't given up after 13 years! :) Funny thing, just yesterday I actually found one of the hymns I was looking for 27 years ago (!!) when I first started this site. I don't have a definitive answer for you, but here are some leads: 1) I believe the author and compos...

Re: Frosty The Snowman

Thanks for posting this Nancy! This will definitely come in handy as every year I try to sing the complete lyrics with my daughter, as each year we invariably start singing it but end up accidentally creating an infinite loop! :)
