This month we are offering two hymns for the Autumn season when we remember the saints and give special thanks for God’s bounty – “Come Ye Thankful People” (St. George’s, Windsor), a well known favorite, and “By All Your Saints” (Nyland), which is maybe less familiar, but I really love the words to this hymn along with the noble tune. Both hymns come complete with score and parts for brass, timpani, winds, strings, piano and guitar. Simply click on the links below or search for the hymns by name, and add them to your shopping cart. You can then check out without paying anything and download your hymn arrangement. While You’re in the neighborhood, please check out the more familiar “For All the Saints” (Sine Nomine) and other hymns in the Holy Days and Various category.
