A group of immensely talented individuals, the Hudson Harmony Band, turned in a lovely and awe-inspiring cover performance of the hymn “Leaning on the Everlasting Arms” with a yodeling twist.

While every church is different, all have some form of a praise and worship portion. Churches and denominations may differ in their interpretation and take on certain sections and verses of Scripture, but all make joyful sounds to the Lord. Christians are to sing tunes of praise and worship to the Lord, as stated in Psalms 98

But churches can differ significantly even when singing and making a joyful sound to Him. Some churches sing strictly contemporary Christian songs, incorporating more modern, well-known songs. They completely leave out the hymns for whatever reason. However, others, a much smaller percentage, might sing only hymns. 

Hymns are beautifully written and constructed pieces of music. They often say so much by saying very little. In my opinion, hymns are vastly underutilized by most churches today. Most old, classic hymns are miles better than a good majority of the contemporary songs that most churches sing instead. 

One of those beloved hymns is “Leaning on the Everlasting Arms.” The hymn is, of course, about learning to lean and rely on the power and faithfulness of Jesus Christ. 

In a clip posted on YouTube, the Hudson Harmony Band gives a powerful, moving and catchy performance of the timeless tune. With their cover, the musicians make this hymn their own, leaving their mark by adding a little heard but always appreciated form of singing: yodeling. 

This is such an impressive and enjoyable cover that you’ll almost assuredly want and need to listen to the Hudson Harmony Band’s performance of “Leaning on the Everlasting Arms” repeatedly. 

This is one cover not to miss!
