"For All the Saints" was a song that was requested to be sung at my 11th-grade English teacher's funeral. I'd never sung it before and was quite moved by the words and tune when we sang it that day.
The church where the funeral was held was small, but the people's voices filled it so that it sounded as if the angels in Heaven had joined in our singing. I never forgot that moment and still get chills when I think of it.
I particularly like this version sung by a British choir for the BBC's program, Songs of Praise. My teacher Mrs. Bullock loved England with her entire being, and it seems a fitting tribute to play this in memory of her.
Enjoy, and have a sweet Sunday! (Remember to turn off the sidebar music video player.)
