Hymns we sang in Israel

At nearly every stop on our tour of Israel, the Pastor lead us in devotions. This is a list of the hymns we sang, noted in our LSB (Lutheran Service Book, Concordia Publishing House, 2006). Looks like we might have missed a few notations.

- O Come, All Ye Faithful, page 370

Dec 6

We haven't moved to the LSB at our church, but I wish we would. I really like it.

Two evenings, we joined together for Compline, the Prayer at the Close of the Day. It's a beautiful devotional, very quiet and settling. It ends with the Nunc Dimittis (Song of Simeon), a very favorite set of verses for me ... Lord, now let your servant depart in peace...
