Hymns: "I'll Fly Away"

I think this hymns is best when sung with an upbeat tempo. It captures the excitement of entering eternity. The song points to a healthy view of death. Death is an acknowledged reality, but not focal point. Albert E. Brumley wasn't focused on death, but upon the continuation of life. The joy for believers isn't in dying; it is in the transitioning from a temporal, often difficult life to an eternal, joyous life.

Hymns: "How Great Thou Art"

Over the years, I grown to love this hymn. Although, there are several good options out there, my favorite is by Michael Tait. I find that the upbeat music conveys the joy one experiences at the experience of God's greatness. Some find that the slow music conveys the reality of God's holiness. Here are a few different versions. You decide which you like best.
