Our family has Bible devotions before sending the kids to bed. If you happen to pass our house these days around 8:30pm, you might hear a hymn ringing out since our windows are open. At the end of each devotion we sing a song. We sing the same hymn for a week so the kids can learn it. We started last week with Blessed Assurance and this week we are doing Send the Light. The kids love it and I’ve really been enjoying learning more verses for each song as well.
What a great idea! I love our worship at church, but I often lament about how few old hymns we sing and how my kids don’t know them. We should spend more time doing this as a family. We have a hymnbook that we could use….
BTW, you never told me where Jeremy works that brought you out to the IL boonies and so far from a Wal-Mart?
And–I plan to write back to you as soon as I get a chance! Loved all the info you e’d me. We DO have a lot in common besides our names! : )
This sounds so Cool. and you started with two that I really like.
another one is The Solid Rock I Stand. A hymn for fun is There is Honey in the Rock for you.
Keep it up.
