Director of Music Tyrone Whiting will be releasing weekly Hymn Sings each Friday during Lent, beginning February 19, 2021 to allow our members and friends to sing along with some well-known Lenten hymns as well as new ones. Tyrone will also give a short spoken introduction about each of the hymns.

These are the audio versions of the weekly videos available on YouTube.

Please, do share these with friends and family to help spread the joy of hymn singing!

To ensure that you can sing along, please find the texts below. Transcript:Welcome to the Church of Saint Martin-in-the-Fields, Philadelphia and to our new Lenten hymn sing series. On each Friday through Lent and until Holy Week I hope you will join us to discover our favorite Lent hymns as well as having the chance to sing along to the words on screen at home. A new video will be released to our YouTube channel and our social media pages each Friday morning.Music plays an integral role in our worship and outreach here at St. Martin's and during this global health crisis we know that many of you have missed singing regularly. Our young choristers, our adult choir, congregational members, and all who walk through our doors give voice to our worship and, for me, hymnody and psalm-singing are the backbone of any Episcopal Church's music program. We are delighted to be able to offer this short series of videos to enhance your journey through faith and music this Lent and Easter and ask that you might help us spread the word about St. Martin's and our music programs by sharing these videos with your family, friends, colleagues, and strangers.
