Hymns that Changed the World

For over several hundred years ago, these treasured hymns have touched the lives of millions, for they are the most compelling music the world has ever known.

These beloved songs were a product of a special union between the Spirit of God and the human heart.... 1. Amazing Grace (was written by John Newton 25 years after he abandoned his life as an African slave trader.)
 2. It is Well with My Soul (poured from the broken heart of Horatio Spafford after his four daughters were killed in a tragic shipwreck)
 3. What a Friend We have in Jesus (penned by Joseph Scriven after his fiancee drowned the day before their wedding)
 4. Silent Night and 5. How Great Thou Art (both songs evolved from poems written by an Austrian parish priest and a Swedish pastor in praise and thanksgiving to their Creator)
