Many thanks for this reminder. Being of an age when Sunday School attendance was not unknown, I'll be tempted to sing along, There Is A Green Hill Far Away ...

Same here.

Easter is surprisingly more tricky than Christmas in coming up with a varied selection of music and hymns each year. I watched the 2013 Easter at King's again yesterday and some of the same suspects appear again this time round.

As for the final hymn I'd prefer to have The Day of Resurrection or The Strife is O'er rather than Jesus Christ is Risen Today.

I remember being puzzled by it, but my parents explained.
