I know the first tenor the chubby guy! He is no longer in the choir, last time I went there it was his senior year so!

I chose this song for my Dad's funeral. I was only 10 years old

We just sang this in Sacrament meeting last Sunday, but to a different tune. It's one that I have memorized and it has always brought comfort. Very pretty.

This is a beautiful hymn written by Mrs Alexander also the writer of "Once In Royal Davids City" and such a wonderful stort attached to it.

It might have been nice to meet Mrs Alexander.

Such a wonderful, lovely hymn for Holy Week.

In a programme that comprised many beautiful pieces all of which were sung to a level of perfection that we have long come to expect from KCC, this simple hymn was, for me, the highlight! Thank you Kings, Dr Westbury and Mrs Alexander (not forgetting the BBC)!!

[drwestbury]

@pjdonagh I agree. I was at Canterbury Cathedral on Good Friday where this was the offertory hymn at Evensong. So much better than some of the largely unknown hymns one often has to suffer.
