Songs of Praise

on BBC One London

from Camborne
Ian Gall visits the part of Cornwall which the tourists don't see. Since the decline of the tin mines, Camborne has become an unemployment black spot, but it's still a good community in which to live.
PERCY RICHARDS worked at the South Crofty mine for most of his life and remembers how everything centred on the mine and the chapel. Young people have to look for work elsewhere, but some, like 19-year-old CRAIG SHEER , find that Christian faith still provides them with confidence in the future.
Local Christians gather at the Camborne Wesley
Methodist Church to sing their favourite hymns. jjraise, my soul (Praise my soul);
When I survey the wondrous cross (Morte Criste);Blessed assurance: God is working his purpose out
(Benson); Living Lord: And can it be (Sagina); The Lord's my shepherd
(Crimond); Great is thy faithfulness Conductor WINIFRED WING
