what hymns did you have at your church wedding??

[biglips]

as i think i need to find 3 (not sure!!) but one of them is "Morning had broken" and eerrr!!

i would appreciate if you can help

thank you!

[onedev]

We had Make Me a Channel of Your Peace, Oh Jesus I Have Promised & All Things Bright & Beautiful - all hymns that meant something to both of us.

[biglips]

ooh thanks everyone as we've decided on "morning had broken", "make me a channel of your peace" (dp's grandfather passed away last October and he was a churchgoer so is one of his faves), so just needed one more..

i will play it on youtube later

and thanks for the congrats

[noisytoys]

In Christ Alone
There were a few others but I remember that one because it was at my baptism and childrens dedications too

[ISingSoprano]

Lord of all Hopefullness

Dear Lord and Father of Mankind

Love Divine

As the Deer Pants

The Servant King

[COCKadoodledooo]

Praise to the Lord, the almighty, the king of creee-aaaaaytion

Immortal, Invisible

To God Be The Glory

Dh will be surprised I remembered all 3! We had thought of going for more modern ones, stuff we knew from CU/our church at uni but those ones sound better with a band and we had an organist. Plus I/we did/still do love the ones we eventually chose and they mean something to us.

[KenDoddsDadsDog]

None, we just had the mass.

[ThreeBeeOneGee]

We had:

And can it be (that I should gain...)
Guide me o Thou great Redeemer
Alleluia Sing to Jesus

Three of the greatest hymn tunes ever written!

[Iheartcrunchiebars]

Will you come and follow me. Beautiful hymn with lovely words.

[Tinkerisdead]

We had a blessing at Xmas, we had love divine, praise my soul the king of heaven and we wanted a carol. Vicar recommended in the bleak midwinter for the line "I would give my heart" but I sobbed every time I sang it before hand so changed it to good king Wenceslas!

[CornMonster]

We had 'we pledge to one another' I love it. It is the same tune as I vow to thee my country but Different words, i love the words and they are perfect for a wedding.
We also had love divine and praise my soul the king of heaven.

[JustCallMeBaldrick]

Praise my soul the King of Heaven, Make me a channel of your peace, and One more step (with personalised words!) Not outed myself at all there...

[MrsVJDay]

The Lord is my Shepherd

Be Still

Tell Out my Soul


I must admit I really cringe when people have kiddie ones that they remember from school assembly.

[Startail]

DH did suggest Fight the Good Fight and Through This Night of Doubt and Sorrow.

[Startail]

We had Thine be the Glory, in memory of DH's Gran (He and his mum had a parody of it about her) it's also loud and cheerful and unashamedly religious.

and Hills of the North Rejoice, which is a favourite of mine. I was born in the hills of the north and brought up in the utmost west and my pagan edges like all the references in it to the natural world.

[NeverKnowinglyUnderstood]

lord of all hopefulness then
mine eyes have seen the glory then
give me oil in my lamp

[Skygirls]

Lord of all Hopefulness

Give Me Joy in My Heart

We Plough the Fields and Scatter
(Vicar strongly suggested this one as got married about harvest festival time)

We had Lord of the Dance, and Jubilate (which isn't on there. this youtube version seems to involve lots of beer, which we didn't have until the reception!)

[Bue]

Guide Me O Thou Great Redeemer and Lord of All Hopefulness. Other contenders were For the Beauty of the Earth and Brother, Sister, Let Me Serve You.

[TheTiger]

I also thought about Shine, Jesus Shine.

[TheTiger]

Morning Has Broken, How Great Thou Art, and Sing Hosanna to finish!

I wanted One More Step but DH vetoed it!

[CelticPromise]

How Great Thou Art
Love Divine All Loves Excelling (Blaenwern tune)
Cwm Rhondda (Guide Me O Thou Great Redeemer)

And a couple of Welsh ones.

Congratulations!

[Umlauf]

Ohh it was tell out my soooouuull!! Lovely happy one!
