"Jerusalem the golden" (Hymn 624) from Sumner Jenkins. Download this episode (mp3). Songs in the Desert is an audio Lenten devotional exploring Christian hymns. Every weekday in Lent, listen to a reflection from a different contributor on a hymn that they find meaningful. Hymn numbers, when given, refer to the Episcopal Hymnal 1982. But most hymns can be found in many different hymnals. Keep watch over your Church, O Lord, with your unfailing love; and, since it is grounded in human weakness and cannot maintain itself without your aid, protect it from all danger, and keep it in the way of salvation; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen. Proper collects for the weekdays of Lent are from Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2006.
