Well the only other hymn I know to this tune is 'Alleluia Sing to Jesus' but when I was looking for an instrumental version of it on youtube I came across several other hymns which are sung to the tune.

It's great to hear from you. I am...Hi Mary333<br /><br />It's great to hear from you. I am so pleased that you liked the books. Yes the trial of St David Lewis was a foregone conclusion, as were the trials of all the martyrs. The aim of the Government of the time was to rid the country of Catholicism and they believed the way to do this was to get rid of the priests. No priest = no Mass = no Catholics was how they reasoned it. Well, thanks to these brave martyrs, priests and laypeople, the Government was wrong! I think we have had it so easy that we take our religon and all it gives us for granted so it does us good to sometimes reflect on just how much we owe to so many brave men and women.<br /><br />If you would like me to, I can send you a couple more of the books about St David Lewis and some of the information cards. You might like to give them to your friends and family. Just let me know and I will do it immediately because I have a couple of the books by John Gray.<br /><br />Thanks again Mary and God bless you.breadgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13431765175096296910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880808099471096480.post-84549427107479849592010-10-27T09:15:18.317+01:002010-10-27T09:15:18.317+01:00Good Morning Daily Grace
Thank you for your visit...Good Morning Daily Grace<br /><br />Thank you for your visit and your support. These martyrs do inspire us to stand up for our faith as you said. The way the world is going these days, it seems we are continually having to do that too. Christians are discriminated against in many ways in many countries that once were staunchly Christian countries. As we know, Christians are actively persecuted in some countries too. We really do need the inspiration and the prayers of the martyrs.<br /><br />Thanks Grace and God bless you.breadgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13431765175096296910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880808099471096480.post-53414318903056304072010-10-27T09:06:47.567+01:002010-10-27T09:06:47.567+01:00Good Morning Richard

I think that would help get the message of our martyrs out to more people. I firmly believe that Catholicism in this little corner of the world has quite an inspiring history and we should share it with the whole world. So please talk to Fr Jason about it and let me know what transpires. I don't really know Fr Jason but we met briefly in Lourdes in 2006 with the Welsh National Pilgrimage. <br /><br />Thanks Richard and God bless you.breadgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13431765175096296910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880808099471096480.post-69869047281343778262010-10-27T02:15:07.333+01:002010-10-27T02:15:07.333+01:00Breadgirl,
