Thank you!!! I was struggling this week with hymns.

I'm also using 121 There's a Wideness in God's Mercy and 265 0 Christ, the Healer

Ooh, good choices, Katie! I especially like "O Christ, the Healer." I wish the tune for "There's a Wideness" were more singable.

singing "There's a Wideness" actually wasn't too bad. I was surprised how well it went.
