Two decades after the hymn, ‘In Christ Alone’, was written by Keith Getty and Stuart Townsend, an online ‘family hymn sing’ coinciding with its anniversary has attracted more than 1million views on Facebook, across more than 100 countries.
Keith and Kristyn Getty (see photo), who had been living in Nashville TN, returned home to Northern Ireland during the pandemic. Each episode of the ‘family hymn sing’ begins and ends with the family at Nashville’s Grand Ole Opry House, with the rest recorded in Northern Ireland. The latest episode features the family embarking on a carpool hymn karaoke around the north coast of Northern Ireland.
Keith said: ‘Although we are so deeply saddened on a daily basis at what is happening all around us, there is nowhere we would rather be and this has been a deeply cathartic and transformational season for us.’
