Are they the same person?&nbsp; Learn about what was happening when the hymn was written.&nbsp; Was there a specific moment in church history or the life of the composer that influenced it?&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Play it often. <\/strong>Play the hymn throughout your week, even when you are not actively studying it.&nbsp; Giving children the opportunity to hear it more often will also help them to learn it.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Use LightSail to Aid Your Homeschool Hymn Study<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can utilize LightSail\u2019s<a href=\"https:\/\/lightsailed.com\/homeschool\/libraries\/unit-studies\/?collection=Hymns\"> unit study on Hymns<\/a>, World Book articles and biographies, and audiobooks containing hymns to enrich your home hymn study.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Children can also use their <a href=\"https:\/\/lightsailed.com\/homeschool\/writing\/\">personal journal<\/a> on LightSail to record their thoughts and feelings about the hymn being studied.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hymn study is a beautiful way to inspire children for good.&nbsp; Let LightSail help aid your efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/lightsailed.com\/homeschool\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Five-Tips-for-Including-Hymn-Study-in-Your-Homeschool-1024x577.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1907\" width=\"588\" height=\"331\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lightsailed.com\/homeschool\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Five-Tips-for-Including-Hymn-Study-in-Your-Homeschool-1024x577.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lightsailed.com\/homeschool\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Five-Tips-for-Including-Hymn-Study-in-Your-Homeschool-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lightsailed.com\/homeschool\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Five-Tips-for-Including-Hymn-Study-in-Your-Homeschool-768x433.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lightsailed.com\/homeschool\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Five-Tips-for-Including-Hymn-Study-in-Your-Homeschool.jpg 1352w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 588px) 100vw, 588px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/lightsailed.com\/homeschool\/registration\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"853\" src=\"https:\/\/lightsailed.com\/homeschool\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/web-banner-300x250-new-1-1024x853.jpg\" alt=\"sign up for homeschool literacy program\" class=\"wp-image-1201\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lightsailed.com\/homeschool\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/web-banner-300x250-new-1-1024x853.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lightsailed.com\/homeschool\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/web-banner-300x250-new-1-300x250.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lightsailed.com\/homeschool\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/web-banner-300x250-new-1-768x640.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lightsailed.com\/homeschool\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/web-banner-300x250-new-1.jpg 1250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Music is a unique way to bring a spirit of peace and calm into your homeschool.&nbsp; Including hymn study in your day can create beautiful bonding moments of faith.&nbsp; Since most children love music, this is one they will be eager to participate in.
