#146 "Gently Raise the Sacred Strain"
I can't sing or play this hymn without thinking about the weekly Mormon Tabernacle Choir broadcast, Music and the Spoken Word. Every Sunday morning, this is the hymn that begins each broadcast. I've used this hymn with choir and congregation. It is also a song that can be used as a sacrament hymn. Verse two has these words: "And partake the sacrament in remembrance of our Lord". I've used it a few times as a sacrament hymn, but since it's not located in the section of sacrament hymns (#169-196) I forget that it can be used. (I'll have to make a note in my personal hymnbook about that!)
