Janie explains the method of selecting Hymns

The hymns below are listed in the order that they were drawn and sung. Click on the hymn title to view "slides" with the verses of the hymn. The slides contain all the verses for the hymn and not just the verse/s sung. It has been said that each hymn contains a sermon/message, so consider taking some time to read all of the verses to reveal the full message of the hymn...Each recording includes statements made before the hymn is sung...as well as any comments made after the singing of the preceding hymn.
