NEW TUNES FOR OLD HYMNS

2/6/2022

0 Comments

 

I started writing new tunes for old hymns because I felt that familiarity with melodies often led to an unthinking singing of the lyrics. I have grouped the hymns below into a set on Musescore.com, and click here to reach it and listen.
  1. Glory be to God the Father
  2. Jesus Christ is risen today Hallelujah
  3. Christ the Lord is risen today
  4. Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty
  5. Abide with me
  6. Jesus I my cross have taken
  7. Take my life and let it be
  8. Amazing Grace
  9. To God be the glory
  10. Rock of ages cleft for me
  11. Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine
  12. Turn your eyes upon Jesus
  13. When I survey the wondrous cross
  14. O come all ye faithful
  15. Hark! The herald angels sing
  16. Lo He comes with clouds descending
  17. O God our help in ages past
  18. O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness
  19. On our way rejoicing
  20. Certainly I will be with thee
  21. Ah!  Holy Jesus
  22. New mercies
  23. All glorious God and King
  24. Jesus the name high over all
  25. Another year is dawning
  26. Standing at the portal
  27. Church of God, beloved and chosen
  28. My Jesus I love Thee (REV)
  29. O God our help in ages past
  30. With joy we meditate the grace
  31. A charge to keep I have
  32. All ye that pass by
  33. For All the saints
  34. O Word of God incarnate
  35. Holy Spirit, truth divine
Let’s sing to the Lord
Merle
