It's with great excitement that we bring to you our first ever guest - the pastor, the publisher, the secret third member of the Hymnpartial team... Daniel Funke!

- Luke 1: 46-55; 1:68-79; 2:29-32

- John 1:1-18 (or at least part of it)

- Philippians 2:6-11

- Colossians 1:15-20

- 1 Timothy 3:16

- The opening verses of Hebrews 1

- 1 Peter 2:21-25

Hymns of Comfort: It is Well With My Soul| Hymnpartial Ep032

This week's hymn may be one most of us know, but it turns out that the stories you've heard about it may not be quite what you thought. . .

As we follow the history of It is Well With My Soul - its lyrics, and its music - the body count just keeps mounting. Yet from the midst of all the tragedy rises one of the most hopeful and triumphant hymns the church has known. Join us as we dive deep into the billowing waters of It is Well With My Soul.

Hymns of Comfort: Be Still My Soul | Hymnpartial Ep031

we're finally bringing you the song that started it all. Be Still My Soul is a beautiful hymn, full of comfort and challenge for us as believers and it's one that can be sung at the best of times and the worst of times.

Join us as we move from Lutheran Pietism to Finnish nationalism to Japanese internment camps, following the tumultuous yet providential history and impact of this incredible song.

We also answer a listener question from the Hymnpartial Mailbag: How did the podcast get started?

Behold Our God: He Will Reign Forever! | Hymnpartial Ep030

We're continuing on the theme of the sovereignty of God with a newer song, Behold Our God. There's nothing better than songs that effectively plagiarise Scripture and the conversation turns to whether we're seeing a greater hunger then ever before for songs that remind us God is more than just a warm hug when we feel down - so much more! Join us as we delight in the One True God!

Jesus Shall Reign! (A Promise for the New Year) | Hymnpartial Ep029

In this episode we do a quick recap of the life of Isaac Watts, take a moment to bask in the wonder of our freedom in Christ, and speculate on whether our hymn-writer was referencing Milton or Paul (as if we'd know!).

The important thing to remember as we face each of our struggles, is that God is still on his throne, he's sovereign and he's in control. So when you find yourself, weary, worn, stressed, or just tempted to gloominess, come back to this song and the Psalm it's based on, and remember who's really running the show.

What do YOU think are the best and worst Christmas songs? Which ones do you like so much you sing all year round? And did you guess the badly explained movies correctly?

O Come, All Ye Faithful: The Christ is Born!

This week we bring you a song that, coincidentally, is one of the finalists or our Battle of the Carols. Even after Monet reveals the complex story of O Come, All Ye Faithful, we still have no idea where it came from or who wrote it, but Cara decides she'll say it's hers since just about everybody else has claimed it as their own. Would you dare argue with the king of Portugal?

We also strip back all that rupapumpumming and uncover the story behind the well-known song, Little Drummer Boy. It's beautiful for sure, but is the heart behind it enough to make it a song we should be singing in church?
