95. Hosanna, Loud Hosanna

Mon, 08 Apr 2024 01:10:01 +0000

"Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest." - Matthew 21:9

Most people know this famous passage in the New Testament when Jesus is welcomed into Jerusalem with shouts of praise and palm branches waving. The very first Palm Sunday about two thousand years ago is commemorated each year in Christian churches and kicks off Holy Week. During this worship service, many churches will sing the famous Palm Sunday hymn, Hosanna, Loud Hosanna by Jeanette Threlfall.

In this special episode, we're diving deep into the Palm Sunday story, taking a close look at this hymn. We recorded this episode live at our home church, First Baptist Church in Reading, MA. The video is on our YouTube channel. Did you know we have a YouTube channel? Please LIKE and SUBSCRIBE!

We would love to bring Hymn Talk Twin Talk to your church event. We can speak about one of the hymns from our other live episodes, or you can choose the hymn and we can create something special for your sermon series or event theme. Please reach out to see how we can help!

We pray that this episode will be a blessing to you. Thanks for listening!

Love in Him,

Kerrie and Kellie

86. Peace, Be Still

Sun, 13 Aug 2023 14:51:54 +0000

When Jesus says these words in the New Testament commanding the winds and the waves to stop, the disciples on the boat were left in awe. We read the words today and are reminded of God's sovereignty that everything in Creation belongs to Him and He is in control.

We absolutely loved diving into this hymn. It's an old one, with some archaic language, but the message of this hymn is so important for us today. It is also called by the first line, Master, the Tempest is Raging. Do you know this one? Do you like to sing it?

85. Haven of Rest

Mon, 31 Jul 2023 01:33:08 +0000

Thank you for finding Hymn Talk Twin Talk and tuning in to our EPIC milestone episode, #85 Haven of Rest.

We got this request from a follower on Twitter months ago and we had no idea that it would send us on this hymn journey. We loved learning about the hymn writer Henry Lake Gilmour (doesn't he sound dreamy?). We loved dreaming of someday traveling to the Jersey Shore with an excursion to the Cape May Lighthouse. We loved diving in to the words HAVEN and HARBOR. We LOVE so much about this episode!

But, the BIGGEST, most exciting thing to come out of this episode was Haven Today, the radio program out of California, originally named Haven of Rest after the hymn.

This episode is just FULL! We hope you love it. We hope you will sing along. We hope you will be drawn close to Jesus who is truly our haven of rest.

These are some of the things we talk about in the episode:

Happy Trinity Sunday!

This episode is all about the Trinity Sunday hymn, I Bind Unto Myself Today. Many Anglican/Episcopalian churches sing this hymn on Trinity Sunday, and many churches in Ireland sing it on St. Patrick's Day.

It was a joy to research St. Patrick for this episode. His story is fascinating and we think we could devote an entire episode to him! Of course, we also talk about the hymn writers Cecil Frances Humphries and Charles Villers Stanford, and they're both wonderful!

66. Praise My Soul the King of Heaven

Mon, 26 Sep 2022 02:39:19 +0000

THANK YOU for finding Hymn Talk Twin Talk. If you're interested in WATCHING this episode, please look for us on YouTube! This episode will be available on Tuesday, September 27.

Episode 66 is a special episode! At the time of our recording, people all over the world were grieving Queen Elizabeth. We did a little digging and found that the hymn Praise My Soul the King of Heaven was a special hymn to her. It had been sung at her wedding, at her coronation, at her jubilee, and at many weddings and funerals in the royal family.

The beautiful text by Henry Francis Lyte was inspired by Psalm 103. There are many beautiful tunes to go with the words. We're sharing a few different tunes in the episode, but we will mostly focus on the tune by John Goss that Queen Elizabeth preferred.

Thank you for listening, thank you for supporting Hymn Talk Twin Talk! We pray that this episode was a blessing to you. Please let us know what you thought about it. If you could leave us a review/rating on your podcast app, we would greatly appreciate it. We'll be back on Monday, October 10 for a brand new episode!

65. Here I Am, Lord

Mon, 12 Sep 2022 12:05:50 +0000

EPISODE 65 is a SPECIAL one!

We have Kellie's husband, Danny, joining us! He has picked the hymn and stays for the entire episode to chat about this modern song. Many people categorize this as a Catholic hymn, but it's so beautiful and so powerful that it really has crossed over to many other Christian churches. We sing this in our Baptist church! Do you sing this in your church?

Join us for a little pop quiz of.... How Well Do You Know Your Old Testament Prophets? You'll probably do better than we did!

The stories of the prophets are so important to know and learn from. May we all be like Isaiah and say, "Here I am, Lord." What a powerful message for Christians today!

Thank you for listening and thank you for supporting Hymn Talk Twin Talk. We'll be back with our next episode on September 26.

It is a FULL hymn, acknowledging all that God has done for us, and then praising Him!

63.LIVE episode - More About Jesus

Mon, 15 Aug 2022 12:39:21 +0000

This episode was recorded LIVE at the First Baptist Church in Reading, MA. Every once in a while we get the opportunity to present a Hymn Talk Twin Talk message during a worship service. We are grateful for these opportunities!

You can hear our other LIVE episodes when we talked about I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day on episode 46 and then again, on episode 55 with Beneath the Cross of Jesus.

The Scripture passage for today's episode is Philippians 3:1-11.

Finally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you is no trouble to me and is safe for you.

Look out for the dogs, look out for the evildoers, look out for those who mutilate the flesh. For we are the circumcision, who worship by the Spirit of God and glory in Christ Jesus and put no confidence in the flesh—though I myself have reason for confidence in the flesh also. If anyone else thinks he has reason for confidence in the flesh, I have more: circumcised on the eighth day, of the people of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; as to the law, a Pharisee; as to zeal, a persecutor of the church; as to righteousness under the law, blameless. But whatever gain I had, I counted as loss for the sake of Christ. Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things and count them as rubbish, in order that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which comes through faith in Christ, the righteousness from God that depends on faith— that I may know him and the power of his resurrection, and may share his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, that by any means possible I may attain the resurrection from the dead.

If you'd like more information about our church, please check out our website: First Baptist Church, Reading.

If you'd like to watch this episode as a video, please head over to our YouTube channel: Hymn Talk Twin Talk YouTube Channel

We are available for speaking engagements. We love to research hymns, sing the hymns, and TALK to YOU about hymns. Send us an email and let's chat about how we can come to your next event.

Sun, 12 Jun 2022 20:16:07 +0000

Knowing all that God has done for us, this question just rings so true.... How CAN we keep from singing?

This hymn, also known by its first line, My Life Flows on in Endless Song, was written by a Baptist minister named Robert Lowry.

We are having our very first Hymn Talk Twin Talk Book Club to read and discuss the book with Kara. We will meet virtually on Tuesday, August 2, at 6:00 EST. We hope many of you will join us!

58. He Leadeth Me

Mon, 30 May 2022 04:03:28 +0000

He Leadeth Me O Blessed Thought.... and what a blessing it is to think about God taking us by the hand, leading us, and feeling His presence!

This hymn came in as a request from our dear friend, Barbara. She remembers sitting in the church pew, sitting at her mom's side, hearing her sing this song. Hymns can bring such comfort and reassurance, they can remind us of God's love and faithfulness, and they can bring up sweet memories from childhood. We are so happy that we got to dive into such a sweet hymn for our friend, Barbara.

55. Beneath the Cross of Jesus mini-episode

Mon, 18 Apr 2022 22:27:49 +0000

Happy Resurrection Day to our Hymn Talk Twin Talk family!

We are so excited for you to hear this episode. How much do you know about this hymn and its author, Elizabeth Clephane? You will notice that this is a shorter episode than what we usually do. We actually presented this episode LIVE to our church family on Sunday, April 10, 2022. You will hear us singing in a trio with one of our church family members, Stephanie Pothier. We love her alto voice! You will also hear a dear friend, Diane Waddell, on violin. You will hear it exactly the way our church family saw it. If you would like to see this episode on video, please head on over to our Youtube channel: Hymn Talk Twin Talk.

Because it's a shorter episode, you won't hear anything about the hymn's composer Frederick Maker We will definitely be revisiting Beneath the Cross of Jesus in a future episode.

Thank you for listening. Thank you for supporting Hymn Talk Twin Talk.

May your hearts and voices be lifted in praise this Easter. He is risen! He is risen indeed!

In His Service,

Kerrie and Kellie

Keep singing!

54. O Sacred Head Now Wounded

Mon, 11 Apr 2022 12:26:31 +0000

O Sacred Head Now Wounded....

Originally a Latin poem from the 1200's, a tune was added, then translated to German, re-harmonized by a famous Baroque composer, and eventually translated to English... we finally see this poem in American hymnals after the year 1829.

This hymn took quite the journey to get to us and it's all focused on Jesus's crucifixion. His journey to the cross was the greatest event in human history and his resurrection is the greatest miracle in history! We are so happy to be talking about this hymn this week.

Here are some of the things we mention in the podcast:

St. Matthew Passion by JS Bach

You can find Raluca on Instagram at @raluca.bojor.music

Villers Abbey

Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church

The Alexander Polynomial

Five Classy Lassies

Thank you for listening and supporting Hymn Talk Twin Talk. To enter our GIVEAWAY with Raluca Bojor, please find us on social media!

53. Lead Me To Calvary

Mon, 21 Mar 2022 02:58:03 +0000

Do you have songs you sing every year during Lent? Do you have hymns that are only sung during Holy Week and not during any other times of the year?

This hymn, commonly referred to as Lead Me to Calvary, but also known as King of My Life, I Crown Thee Now has been a Holy Week staple in our church for years. We are so grateful that we got to dive into this one, learning about a female text writer who is NEW to us and remembering a much-loved composer.

If you do not know this song, maybe you can make it a part of your Lent tradition this year. Please sing along!

These are some of the things we talk about on the episode:

The Creative Trio

Lead Me To Calvary by The Creative Trio

52. Faith Is The Victory

Mon, 07 Mar 2022 03:13:36 +0000

Taken right from the Bible, these words are powerful, encouraging, and TRUE! The poet, John Yates, had such a way with words that when our composer, Ira Sankey, read his poems, he immediately recruited him to write gospel songs for the tent meetings that he and Dwight Moody were running all over the United States and abroad.

These two men were quite a pair writing many gospel hymns together, but Faith Is The Victory is arguably their most well-known.

Thank you for listening! Please sing along! We are sharing lots of music today!

Things we mention in this episode:

City Rescue Mission

The N Crew's performance of Faith Is The Victory

Ira Sankey's My Life and the Story of Gospel Hymns

God bless you all.

48. Be Thou My Vision

Mon, 10 Jan 2022 03:04:36 +0000

What a way to start 2022! Our first episode of the new year is all about praying for wisdom, guidance, and strength, and promising to put God first in all things.

Our friend Emily requested this hymn and we are so thankful we got to learn about it. From St. Patrick in the year 433 to the churches of Ireland in 2020, we see that this hymn has a timeless message. Many hymn that utilize the old-fashioned language such as thee and thou have been lost or updated with contemporary language. We are so impressed that this hymn has been preserved all this time. God has a message for us all with this hymn. What is this hymn saying to you today?

If you're curious about some of the things we talked about today, please visit these sites:

Tonia Evans Cianculli

Hymns of the Heart

The Heart's Obsession

Tosca by Puccini

Alexandra College in Dublin

Dominican Sisters in Ireland

Visit Slane Hill

The Irish Blessing from Ireland churches

We hope you enjoy learning about this old hymn. This old hymn that was forgotten about for centuries... God took what was dead and made it alive again; God took what was ancient and made it new; God took what the world ignored and made it into something beautiful.

God bless you as you listen today!

Please find us on social media so you can participate in our GIVEAWAY. You can WIN a copy of Tonia's CD! All our info is below.

46. LIVE episode - I Heard the Bells on Christmas

Wed, 22 Dec 2021 13:37:59 +0000

Merry Christmas to our Hymn Talk Twin Talk family!

We are so excited for you to hear this episode. How much do you know about this hymn and its famous author, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow? You will notice that this is a shorter episode than what we usually do. We actually presented this episode LIVE to our church family on Sunday, December 19, 2021. You will hear us playing handbells. You will hear our congregation singing along. You will hear it exactly the way our church family saw it. If you would like to see this episode on video, please head on over to our Youtube channel: Hymn Talk Twin Talk.

Because it's a shorter episode, you won't hear anything about the hymn's composer John Baptiste Calkin. We will definitely be revisiting I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day in a future episode.

Thank you for listening. Thank you for supporting Hymn Talk Twin Talk.

May your heard be lifted in praise this Christmas for the wonderful gift of Jesus and the joy He brings to our lives. Have a wonderful Christmas and blessed 2022!

In His Service,

Kerrie and Kellie
