Hello, this week's hymn is Be Still My Soul.
This is written by Katharina von Schlegel.
I'm sure I'm mispronouncing [Ab] her beautiful German name.
Sorry to all [N] the von Schlegels.
This was written in 1752.
The music was written by John Sibelius in 1899.
It was originally entitled Finlandia.
This hymn was reportedly the favorite of Eric Little.
If [Bbm] you remember the story,
he's the athlete who became famous in the [Ab] 1924 Olympics
[B] for refusing to run on the Sabbath.
They made the movie [Ab] Chariots of Fire about that story.
He later became a missionary to China
and was [N] imprisoned during World War II.
He's said to have taught this hymn to others
in the prison camp where he eventually died
of a brain tumor.
The lyric to this is so, so beautiful.
Clearly the spirit of God was on this lady
when she wrote it.
It is poetry and it is stunning.
This song can touch your heart.
If you need to feel the peace [Gb] of God,
this is one that can bring it to you.
Be Still My Soul.
