This morning at church, we sang a couple of verses of Charles Wesley’s “Love Divine, All Loves Excelling” to the Blaenwern tune. We finished off with two verses using the Beecher tune. I first heard the Blaenwern tune used at a church in Garstang, England thirty plus years ago and still remember how I thought it fit the words so well. So magnificently. So grand.
