Do any of you use hymn books as part of your family singing/worship time? I’ve found several at the local City Mission, but they are different from one another and don’t always have the same songs. I’d love to find a hymn book I could purchase several copies of, so that we could each use the same version. I’m compiling a list of our favorite hymns and plan to print some out and put them, hole-punched, in prong folders, adding to it as we add new hymns. But if I could find something more inclusive I’d love to consider that instead.
We use the hymnal from our church and we always got a nice one for ourselves here ; http://WWW.nph.net
We also use cds of hymn music from the Christian group Koine (pronounced Koy-nay or coin-a).
From here: http://www.koinemusic.com. I always brag about them because their lead singer’s grandmother is a member of my church.
We learn a new hymn about twice a month. And take breaks when they have other parts to learn for ss and Christmas ss during the year. I also purchased 101 hymn stories that has some of our same hymns and has a bit of history about the hymn and the author.
