O Sacred Head Now Wounded....
Originally a Latin poem from the 1200's, a tune was added, then translated to German, re-harmonized by a famous Baroque composer, and eventually translated to English... we finally see this poem in American hymnals after the year 1829.
This hymn took quite the journey to get to us and it's all focused on Jesus's crucifixion. His journey to the cross was the greatest event in human history and his resurrection is the greatest miracle in history! We are so happy to be talking about this hymn this week.
Here are some of the things we mention in the podcast:
