Music transports us to the heavenly. It moves our souls and puts courage in our bones. In Hosannas Forever, David and Barbara Leeman include 52 hymns about heaven that speak to the trials, longings, and sufferings we’re facing. A one-year weekly devotional, each hymn is introduced with a brief biography of the author who penned the lyrics and a biography of the melody’s composer, followed by a devotional summary. The hymn is included on the opposite page.

All hymns are offered with piano only to be sung along without the voices. One hymn for each week – 52 total. Also offered in the download is a compilation of the music in 3 sections:

Section One – Hymns of Heaven and Our Pilgrimage

Section Two – Slave Hymns of Our Freedom in Heaven

Section Three – Hymns of Our Forever in Heaven
