Song of the heart
Found an interesting thread on under-rated hymns at Times and Seasons. I love the hymns. For the last couple of years I've often thought of arranging some of them, and before long it'll actually happen. :) Another thing I want to start doing is put up the chords for the hymns -- now that I'm learning how to play the guitar, it'd be nice to know what the chords are, but I haven't yet found anything online.
A while ago I started collecting foreign-language hymnbooks (Spanish, Italian, French, and Thai so far). It's interesting to see which hymns got selected for translation, which other hymns were included that aren't in the English hymnbook (like "Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing"), and which hymns have extra verses (like "Called to Serve" in Spanish). The translation process is fascinating, too.
