If it happened on a given day, he blogs about it on that day! Its kind of like having a commemoration day for a hymn or hymn writer.
Robert recently weighed in on a Sound of Majesty broadcast here on All for Hymn. That particular broadcast featured the tune "Miles Lane" with the text "All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name."
Today marks the anniversary of the birth of James Ellor, who wrote the tune, "Diadem" for this piece. Neither of these tunes made it to Lutheran Service Book, so I will feature Diadem plus the tune "Coronation" from LSB below. For the tune "Miles Lane" check out this broadcast of Sound of Majesty. You can also follow along with the playlist for that show.
Read Robert's post on James Ellor here. You can read about Robert's faith journey here. Robert has served as parish musician, parish pastor and educator. In our tradition he would probably be called Kantor.
