Sadly this is not the Chapel of the Resurrection. This is in fact the spire of Rivercourt Methodist Church as seen from the grounds of Latymer Upper School. I am sure that the Methodists who attend this church are fond of hymn singing!
Hymns of glory, songs of praise,
Father, unto thee we raise;
Jesus, glory unto thee,
Ever with the Spirit be.
NB I am in Belfast for a couple of days - hence this 'early' posting! Normal service on Sunday.

I like the link between the hymn and the photos. Isn't that music school going to be very warm with all that glass?
I hope the planners thought of that rather important point!
A nice photo - and a splendid Wesley hymn to look forward to tomorrow!
What a wonderful hymn. Like Issac Watts, James Montgomery could write powefully and with economy. The tune, Northampton, is excellent
Yes, I am very fond of the tune Northampton. I also like Ratisbon - the usual tune to 'Christ, whose glory fills the skies'. A good hymn really requires good words and a good tune.
