Christian Music Sunday - 30 September 2012

It's almost a month into spring and it's the first morning of daylight saving, so morning broke even earlier this morning!

So today's choice of song was a simple one. Cat Stevens made this hymn famous in the 1970's, before he converted to Islam. But its origins go back even further; the words were penned in 1931.

The version we've chosen today is sung by Hayley Westenra:




A glorious morning it is too, and in the morning sunlight, the signs of "God's recreation of the new day", the final line of the hymn are there for all to see; enjoy!

How about a Psalm, Psalm 136 (or 137 in Western Bibles).

Saw these people over 20 years ago, fantastic, and although it might seem strange to your ears at first, it is really beautiful and worshipful.
