TOP 50 HYMN COUNTDOWN
The ballots have been cast and votes have been tabulated! What was originally going to be our "Top 40" Hymn countdown, has now become the Top 50 Hymn Countdown. Because we had 21 songs come in at #31, with two votes each, we decided to expand our countdown to include hymns that collected at least two votes apiece. That means that the countdown that began on Sunday, September 14, 2008, will not be completed until Sunday, August 30, 2009, So, watch this page to see the results, or better yet, join us every Sunday Morning to see if your favorite hymn made it into the countdown!
