It is that time of year, the end of summer is upon us.\u00a0 Most of the kids here in the US are already back to school and looking forward to a long weekend and the first day off of school.\u00a0 Well, this also means that our music monkeys are back and have gotten back to work.<\/p>\n

Bandhymns.com<\/a> has two hymns to announce which are ready to download now for all instruments (and one of them has been in the “works” for months – started before everyone scattered for the break<\/a>).<\/p>\n

First is the pioneer<\/a> hymn of faith, number 30, Come, Come, Ye Saints.\u00a0 This one has literally brought tears to many of our eyes here on staff – at trying times and for various reasons.\u00a0 It is a powerful hymn with meaningful lyrics and stirs our souls to introspection and pondering of deeper thoughts.<\/p>\n

On an other end of the emotional<\/a> spectrum, the second hymn ready today is hymn #249, Called to Serve.\u00a0 Sung by tens of thousands of missionaries all over the world and in all sorts of languages, this hymn is all about extroversion and marching forward with the message of the Gospel.\u00a0 We also thought the spirit of this hymn fit nicely with “Back to School” and the marching band season.\u00a0 Imagine what that would be like:\u00a0 one hundred missionaries marching in front of a 100-piece marching band playing Called to Serve!\u00a0 Powerful.<\/p>\n
