Praise God from Whom All Blessings Flow - AO's December Hymn

Hello Everyone!  This month I've added PARTS!  Woo hoo!  The Doxology is a great song for which to learn parts because (hopefully) it's one you will sing often in churches throughout your entire life; and it sounds great a capella!  Go ahead and try it at home with your family!

The Doxology is actually the final verse of this beautiful hymn, "Awake, My Soul."  You may wish to print out the words & sing the entire thing, or meditate on the poem.  (I like to put the words next to my sink so I can sing while I do the dishes!)  http://www.hymntime.com/tch/htm/a/w/a/awakemys.htm  What a great way to start the day! 

I found a Public Domain copy of the sheet music for Praise God From Whom All Blessings Flow here:  http://openhymnal.org/Pdf/Praise_God_From_Whom_All_Blessings_Flow-Old_100th.pdf
