Roger Royle presents hymns and other music from Orchard Place Baptist Church, Neath.
The congregation are joined by Cambrensis, the South Wales Baptist Choir. It is a thing most wonderful; I know not why; Praise Him in your hearts; Sing my tongue the glorious battle; The royal banners forward go; Like a river glorious; The servant king; Let us praise the Lord triumphant.
