Good one there Annie in Australia, a great song. Stephen Evans

Can we add hymns ??

"O God, our help in ages past ..."  (for when we can't find them on the censuses)

"Help us to help each other Lord ... "   (for RootsChatters who are ALWAYS helpful)

"And did those feet in ancient times ...
Walk upon Englands mountains green ... " 

and ... "We plough the fields and scatter, the good seed on the land ..." (for our ag. lab's)

"O happy day ... "  (when the certificate drops through the letter box)
