St. Martin's Hymn

  |  Speaker: Dr. Lyn H. Loewi
Dr. Lyn H. Loewi

Lyrics by the Rt. Rev. Frank Griswold, set to the tune Puer Nobis.

Did you know that we've got our very own version of a hymn about St. Martin of Tours? Every year we sing this song on St. Martin's Day. The lyrics were written by the Rt. Rev. Frank Griswold when he was the Rector of Church of St. Martin-in-the-Fields. The hymn tells the full tale of St. Martin of Tours' encounter with a beggar one day along the roadside - the encounter fabled to have turned his path toward Christ.

Recording from St. Martin's Day celebration, Sunday, November 15, 2020.
