The Parish Church of St George the Martyr, Waterlooville

Some twenty plus years ago the congregation was polled on its favourite hymns.  A  top 40 was compiled.  We believe that today’s choices would be very different.

To find out please let us have your three, four or five favourite hymns (on paper please) which we will then compile into a complete list.  If you would like to take part please let me have your choices by the end of September to be included in the final list due out in the Christmas edition.


For interest the last top 10 was

1. Abide with me

2. Rock of ages

3. At the name of Jesus

4. For all the saints

5. Glorious things of thee are spoken

6. Dear Lord and father

7. Praise my soul

8. O come all ye faithful

9. For the beauty of the earth

10. Lo he comes with cloud descending
