This is another of those things I did at one point and have let slide. You encourage me greatly, so thanks for all you share here.

Glad to see this in the CM carnival. We, too, are learning hymns all the time, and working on Nepali ones.

One of our favorite composers is Isaac Watts. It turned out that so many of the hymns we picked to learn were written by him. Chr. Classical Etheral Library has a huge document of his verses, lovely doctrinal and stories from the Bible in verse. Just wanted to put in a plug for him.

Hi Jimmie,

Finally made it over to check out your blog, it looks lovely!
I clicked on this post as I’m wanting to start hymn study in our home. I need to check out those books esp hymns for a kids heart as I think I’ve heard about it from others as well.
We don’t sing hymns in our church but I grew up with them and would love for my dd to know some of those great old hymns!

yay! I’m so glad that you guys are going to incorporate the bilingual aspect! (thanks for the link, too! I think it is a very natural way to add in language.
I must compliment you… you are really going all out on hymns!! We don’t do nearly as much, but little by little my kids are becoming more familiar with the oldies-still-goodies One day, I’ll probably have to post how we do hymn study and then I’ll really pale in comparison

Hi Jimmie, This is so timely! I have been going over (and over lol) plans for next fall schooling (I have 1 DD who will be in 4th) and was looking at Hymn Study which is something we haven’t done either. I’m looking foward to reading your lense. Blessings. aka Marstar at SCM P.S. I was thinking of you last week…my pastor and his wife just returned from a trip to China.

Another great resource is http://www.igracemusic.com/hymnbook/home.html. Click on the many links and you’ll find many, many resources. There is a downloadable RUF hymnbook with or without music!

One site that feeds my soul is http://www.reformedpraise.org. New hymns, old hymns with new tunes. My current favorite is http://www.reformedpraise.org/songs/updatedhymns/by_grace_alone/

My husband grew up Episcopalion and I attended a variety of churches. We both just love hymns and try to teach the kids at least one holiday-appropriate hymn for Easter and Christmas. Thanks so much for sharing your notebooking pages so we can make it a more formal study and do it year ’round.
