Abstract
For more than 60 years, the BBC has been broadcasting Songs of Praise weekly – a religious television programme featuring Christian hymns and songs sung in churches and places of worship from various denominations across the United Kingdom (UK). In 2013, Songs of Praise conducted a national survey to determine the country’s favourite hymn. From thousands of entries the hymn How great Thou art emerged as the winner. In 2019, the research was repeated, and viewers indicated that their favourite hymn this time is CH Hubert Parry’s Jerusalem.
