Subject: Wesley, Watts & the AGO From: Haruo Date: 19 May 12 - 03:30 PM Tomorrow will be the sixth Evergreen Hymn-Sing at Fremont Baptist Church, 717 N 36th St, Seattle. 1:30 pm (to 2:45). The title (and focus) is "Wesley, Watts & the AGO"; we'll focus on hymn texts by Charles Wesley and Isaac Watts, and will introduce several tunes composed by founding members of the American Guild of Organists. Here's the songlist. Hail the day that sees him rise (to Laus Sempiterna) A place in the choir (Staines) Jesus, lover of my soul (to Martyn) Come, thou long-expected Jesus (to a Russian tune) He bowed the heavens (Penfield) In age and feebleness extreme (to Vale) Hark! how all the welkin rings (to Mendelssohn) - (one verse also multilingually: Russian/Japanese/Swahili/Esperanto) Hark! the herald angels sing (to Elderkin) Lo! he comes with clouds descending (to Helmsley) PEOPLE'S CHOICE 1 I am the Lord (Goyette) PEOPLE'S CHOICE 2 My shepherd will supply my need (to Resignation) Hush! my dear (to Greenville) Come away to the skies (to Middlebury) Am I a soldier of the cross? (to Wear a Crown; also in Spanish) My God, accept my heart this day (to Shine on Me) There is a land of pure delight (to Never Part Again) Alas! and did my Savior bleed? (to He Loves Me) PEOPLE'S CHOICE 3 Deeper, deeper (C. P. Jones) PEOPLE'S CHOICE 4 Hosanna to the Son of David (to Marzo) Before the Lord we bow (to Warsaw) This is thy will, I know (to Trentham) Ye ransomed sinners, hear (to Lenox) A silv'ry tide called "Sunny-Side" (to The Sunny Side) Sing to the heart of Jesus (to Heart of Jesus) PEOPLE'S CHOICE 5 Marching to Zion Mine eyes have seen the glory Some glad morning ...in order to fit the time frame, most of the hymns will only be two or three stanzas... If you like to sing hymns come on down and give it a try. There will be a freewill offering to benefit Fremont and Seattle homeless ministries, Burma Refugee resettlement in South King County, and Nzunga Mabudiga's Eye Clinic in Cap Haitien, Haiti, but admission is free. Wouldn't sadden me at all to see an occasional Mudcatter at these things... Haruo |
