Thank you for being you & thank you for visiting!

I'm continuing a new series on hymnology, and this is a triple-feature(!) broadcast wherein we will explore:
(1) the History behind the hymn "Revive Us Again!";
(2) some Theory concerning Music, Poetry, and Conducting;
(3) some Study prompts for y'all to keep growing closer to this hymn :)

If you'd like to look closer at my Keynote slides, please consider looking out for a soon-to-come blog post via https://deopatriaelitteris.wordpress.com/ . Also: please check out the 'Timestamp Guide' which I've provided below.

P.S. If you'd like to support me in this project of mine (or related artistic and scholarly endeavors), subscribe to https://hymnandhuh.locals.com/ + https://rumble.com/c/c-2340702 :)

P.P.S. This is an abridged version because Rumble has a max file size of 15 GB, but you can see the full video over at my YouTube channel ( https://youtu.be/Dyoxnb8p2JU ).
