The musical film of the same name, Singin' in the Rain (1952), was suggested by the song. The performance by Gene Kelly dancing through puddles in a rainstorm garnered the song the third spot on the American Film Institute ranking of 100 Years...100 Songs. The song was incorporated by Michael Kamen into his score for the 1988 film Die Hard, where it is most closely associated with the character of Theo. Diana Krall included it on her 2020 album This Dream of You.

Here is a beautiful, simple advent song I wrote to serve churches through the season of Advent, particularly during the candle lighting portion of each Sunday the weeks leading up to Christmas. I recommend singing verse 1 on week 1, verse 1 and 2 on week 2, and so on, but you can also just use a different verse each week depending on your service needs and time constraints. There are recordings available for each of the weeks of Advent on all streaming platforms as of November 1, 2024, in case that is helpful to your service preparation or to choirs who are learning the song. 

This version is in C Major, with a vocal range of C4-A4, a very comfortable range for congregational singing. Also available, by searching Stacey Plays Hymns and the song title on this site, is a full piano vocal accompaniment version and a piano solo that is perfect for a prelude or postlude any time this song is used congregationally, to tie the whole service together muscially.

Purchase includes a free license for four church services with under 300 people, with proper attribution and credit to Stacey Plays Hymns in any printed or online materials. For a license to use this work on a larger scale, please contact me for permission and other usage details including lyrics formatted for printing in church bulletins or for powerpoint. Please let me know if there is any other way I can serve you as a congregation or fellow music/choir director as I endeavour to write several new choral anthems per year, along with my other recording work.

Thank you for supporting modern hymnwriters and musicians!

The Navy Hymn, also known as “Eternal Father, Strong to Save�, holds a special place in the hearts of seafaring men and women, particularly in the American Navy and the royal navies of the British Commonwealth. In1879: Rear Admiral Charles Jackson Train, a Naval Academy graduate, was stationed at the Academy in charge of the Midshipman Choir. He initiated the practice of concluding each Sunday’s Divine Services with the singing of the first verse of this hymn. Thus, it became a cherished tradition at the Naval Academy and eventually throughout the entire Navy.
