So I don’t know if anyone else in in this situation–we attend a church that doesn’t use hymns. We only sing the Psalms (and that a capella). So we don’t do hymn study in our homeschool. Instead I am trying to incorporate psalm study once a week. I have an advantage in that I studied biblical Hebrew. But I wanted to share what we do with those who might be interested but not have that resource. I have a number of blog posts on what we have done (I try to add one on this topic every week as we study more psalms). A good one to start with is here if anyone is interested:
