This week on Knowing Hymn, we discuss hymn #29, A Poor Wayfaring Man of Grief. We, of course, talk about the poet James Montgomery and the composer George Coles, but we also dive into the scriptural backing found in Matthew and the way this hymn features in the history of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Steve attempts to sing it the way John Taylor sang it in Carthage jail - which is slightly different from how we have it in our current hymnbook! Take a listen!
