Songs of Praise Fund-raiser

The fund-raising team are organising another ‘Songs of Praise’ fund-raising event which you will be able to watch online in the near future. This time the idea is that all the hymns, etc will come from those not in the current hymn-book, Church Hymnary 4 (CH4).
So, if you have a favourite hymn from CH3, the Revised Church Hymnary, Songs of God’s People, etc. and would like us to include it in our Songs of Praise then please let us know.
We’ll publish details of the event nearer the time – at the moment, though, we’re just on the lookout for material to be included. Thanks for your help!
