It might be worth dropping a line to Revival FM , they are a Scottish Christian Radio station. They are at Revivalradio(.)org(.)uk or 100.8 FM Snail Mail: Revival Radio Ltd, PO Box 106, Cumbernauld, G67 1JX, Scotland,

http://www.opc.org/hymn.html?hymn_id=853 Your harps, ye trembling saints, Down from the willows take; Loud to the praise of love divine Bid ev'ry string awake. Though in a foreign land, We are not far from home; And nearer to our house above We ev'ry moment come. His grace will to the end Stronger and brighter shine; Nor present things, nor things to come, Shall quench the grace divine. When we in darkness walk, Nor feel the heav'nly flame, Then is the time to trust our God, And rest upon his Name. Soon shall our doubts and fears Subside at his control; His lovingkindness shall break through The midnight of the soul. Blest is the man, O God, That stays himself on thee: Who wait for thy salvation, Lord, Shall thy salvation see.
