ReplyDeleteThat's what I like. Don't moan about what I've left out/put in. You've got a blog. Go and do your own list! ;-)
ReplyDeleteNot bad Welsh Boy. You have 5 of mine in there - not bad for a liberal Eh? Do I see a modern "Song" on the list!!!? Halellujah!
ReplyDeleteHi Steve,
ReplyDeleteYes, that is a modern hymn you see. I'm no longer the grumpy Retro-Reformed young man you knew when I was in my 20s. I've moved on a bit since then. Well, I'm still as grumpy as ever, but I now like Townend's hymns. I suppose that's some improvement.
Try "Oh to see the dawn" (The power of the cross) another one to suit retros like us
