Not an answer to your question, but rather a pointer to a superb online collection of hymns.

So you can listen to your favorites in the office.

Thanks for the link. I'm not really familiar with some of the songs, but I'm sure I'll find something I'll like.

My mom began taking us kids to Sunday School and Church when we were just little tykes...this was during the 1950s...she took us to the local Methodist Church....now Methodists have always loved to sing and belt out the hymns, and at times it seemed to me, that the roof was going to cave in and the wall tumble down, from all the loud and wondrous singing...

There are so many songs that I learned as a kid, and they have stayed with me always....

Songs like Amazing Grace, O For a Thousand Tongues to Sing, Onward Christian Soldiers, Blessed be the Tie that Binds, Blessed Assurance, Whispering Hope, He Lives, In the Garden, All Hail the Power of Jesus Name, There is a Fountain Filled With Blood, Nearer My God to Thee, are just a few hymns I learned and grew to love..

In Sunday School and Vacation Bible School, we had our own special hymns, easier for kids to learn and sing...songs like Do Lord, Sunbeam, Fishers of Men, Jesus Loves Me, Jesus loves the Little Children, Deep and Wide, This is My Fathers World, as just a few that I remember from my Sunday School days...

Add to that all the familiar and traditional Christmas and Easter and Holiday songs, and there are many, many hymns which hold a special place in my heart...

JohnLocke...this website that you gave the link to, has really pleased me, as they include one of my favorite Christmas Hymns, which you dont really hear too often, altho I have noticed in these last few years, I have been hearing it more and more...its, In The Bleak Midwinter, a truly lovely hymn for Christmas...

Thanks...love that old time gospel and hymn singing...
