Songs in the NIght Program #595 Recorded Live on January 21, 1962 Broadcast on February 11, 1962 Video produced by Kenton Kober for the Songs in the Night Reunion Celebration
This is the church where I became a Christian at age 5. Western Springs Village Church with Pastor Lloyd Fesmire. I am 68 now. Lots of memories when I hear that opening song. My parents were close friends of Lloyd and Helen. Billy Graham was the pastor there for a short time before he handed the baton to his college roommate, Lloyd, when he left to begin his evangelism ministry. George Beverly Shea and Don Hustad and their families were also members in those years we attended. The foundations for my life were laid here. I am still following after Jesus 63 years later. I thank the Lord for Western Springs Village Church!
Beautiful testimony! May the Lord bless you and keep you in his ways. I'm 65 and my dad use to play lps of george beverly shea and I still till this day continue to listen to this wonderful gospel singer who now rest in the Lord. Blessings to you my brother in Christ!
oh, you don’t say? but then there is suppose to be a rumor according to a conspiracy theory that the late ‘reverend billy graham’ was a closet-catholic-priest up until the time of his death.
I was a lonely college freshman, a thousand miles from home, in the San Francisco Bay Area in the late 1960s. But when I heard that “Songs in the Night” intro on Family Radio late on Sunday night, with one ear pod connected to my little clock radio, it was like a wave of comfort and blessing washing over me. I forgot my loneliness and was bathed in the warmth of God’s Word and his love. I drifted off to a sweet sleep with my spiritual batteries recharged to face the week’s coming challenges. Thanks for helping me to recapture this blessed memory!
For so many years I listened to Songs in the Night late each Sunday. Then to fall asleep after listening to that music and meditation. To start the new work week with that blessing. The next thing to perfection. The Lord giveth songs in the night....
I spent my youth in Wheaton and several times our youth group would travel to the Village Church to be a part of the radio broadcast. That was about 65 yrs ago. Oh how I miss those times.
Don Hustad the organist was my dear Uncle Don and this brings back many wonderful growing up memories and as radio program ... live ... it was so well planned and performed...As i say ... this was the era of "real radio."
Don Hustad was such a great musician with the Billy Graham Crusades for so many years. Saw online sometime ago where he died. I have album by him and Tedd Smith --- another great musician --- playing duets.
I first started listening to Songs in the Night in my early twenties and now I'm almost 62 years old. I listened to it on Moody Radio in Chicago. It was wonderful.
"Men cry out under a load of oppression: they plead for relief from the arm of the powerful. But no one says 'Where is God my maker, who gives Songs in the night?'" Elihu to Job
My late husband loved this program. He died 15yrs ago, at only 52. I'm so happy to find this on my phone!!! I feel close to God. And a warm glimmer of my Charlie's spirit in the love of God.
I am not American but I believe America is a great Nation and will continue to be,for two reasons. America is a friend of Israel and she has sent Missionaries and have held revivals all over the world. With all the evil happening in the world today,there is still hope for America,God bless America...
When I was little, I used to stay up late to hear this introduction. 11:00 was late for a 7 year old, so i didn't stay awake very far into the program, but I loved it so much. Still do...
I am 76 years old. I remember often "Songs in the Night" growing up. I just found this online this morning, and reading the chapter by D.James Kennedy "Songs in the Night." Thank you for the blessed voices from my past that remain all these years. I've been blessed today!
Job 35:10 (KJV) But none saith, Where [is] God my maker, who giveth songs in the night; Psalm 42:8 (KJV) [Yet] the LORD will command his lovingkindness in the daytime, and in the night his song [shall be] with me, [and] my prayer unto the God of my life. My heart is filled with joy to hear this singing again. It’s been awhile. What a blessing.
Back in the 80s a local radio station played I believe it was Sunday night late not much before the radio station closed for the night. Pastor Irwin Lutzer teaching from the word, I really enjoyed it, I have went to their website hoping to find those old radio programs so I could hear them again, but no luck.
This was a great blessing in my early years as a convert to the Christian faith in the 1980s. The Lord used this program many times to comfort and bless me.
I attended a program recording one Evening in January when I was about 12 years old . I was with my brother , Dick Anthony. Dick was a member of the program team. I think he may have been filling in for Don Hustad at the organ. It is a rich memory for me. So sweet to hear the sounds of "Songs in the night".
Remember early 50’s A group of young people from Glen Jorian’s church went out to hear and see the program recorded. I’m now 86 and the Trio’s singing Song in the Night was sung by us young girls all the way home.
Finally someone made this available! I have been yearning for this for years. When I first became a Born Again believer this was such a blessing. Thanks, Kenton
I love this program very much. Every Sunday night at 9:30pm I listen to this on BBN. God bless Pastor Erwin Lutzer and John Innes for his music..... \o/
I love this program, such a blessing, Dr. Erwin Lutzer has this weekly broadcast, among other places, streamed live at specific times at bbnradio.org, at Sat: 3:30 AM ET , & Sun: 9:30 PM ET as well as local bbn radio stations at these times, and tunein streaming during live broadcasts. Today's broadcast was so great I wanted to listen again but found no archive of broadcasts. Would be great to have a week's archive on BBN "On Demand".
Thanks so for reminding me of Irwin Lutzer. My husband loved him and listened to him at lunch everyday. God blessed Charlie they the trials we all have. And our beautiful children. I was just trying to remember his name! I'll turn to his channel after songs in the night. Thankyou God!!!
I've been reading through the Bible and noting the songs that come to mind as I read. I'm in Job, and came to chapter 35 verse 10. I searched for the song "Songs in the NIght," because I remember listening to it on Saturday or Sunday nights at my Grandma's house. I can also hear my older brothers singing it. I'm so happy I found this link. I also looked up Wendell P. Lovelace, and on the Hope Publishing page 12 songs he wrote were listed...and I knew them all!
When I was a kid, mom and dad used to have this on the radio. KXEI out of Montana. Never knew this was the church, but certainly remember the intro and outro.
Isaiah 61:10 (KJV) I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh [himself] with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth [herself] with her jewels.
I loved listening to this program every Sunday night at 9:00 pm on WFME (Family Radio) 94.7 FM during the late 80s well into the year 2000. I now have to search the internet to find them. I enjoyed hearing Glenn Jorian, The King's Karollers and Dr. Erwin Lutzer which were all recorded at The Moody Church. I recorded a few programs myself and I glad I did because I do miss the music.
Yes," says the Spirit, "let them rest from their labors, for their works follow them!" ... the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors; and their works do follow them. Revelation 14:13
2 Peter 3:11 (KJV) [Seeing] then [that] all these things shall be dissolved, what manner [of persons] ought ye to be in [all] holy conversation and godliness, Psalm 17:15 (KJV) As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.
Narrator's voice of SONGS IN THE NIGHT in the past -- for 40 years --- was Ted Seelye. Occasionally, they still use one of his openings for the program. He has gone on to Heaven. He also used to do voice for some of the Moody Bible Institute programs like some of the STORIES OF GREAT CHRISTIANS episodes. He is the announcer for some of those episodes and is an actor in some of the stories. Also did voice work for (if you remember) THE CHAPEL OF THE AIR with John D. Jess and David Mains.

Such a beautiful testimony. May God bless you.

Your comment blessed my heart so much. I so miss the songs and wholeness and purity of those days.
Beautiful testimony! May the Lord bless you and keep you in his ways. I'm 65 and my dad use to play lps of george beverly shea and I still till this day continue to listen to this wonderful gospel singer who now rest in the Lord. Blessings to you my brother in Christ!
oh, you don’t say? but then there is suppose to be a rumor according to a conspiracy theory that the late ‘reverend billy graham’ was a closet-catholic-priest up until the time of his death.
A real reminder of how much worldliness and how far away the church has fallen over the past few years.

Wonderfully true.
Look up eventide wonderful similar to this
I agree wholeheartedly
I wish there were more shows like this on the radio especially in the evenings. It is such a peaceful and comforting way to end the day.
You can tune in to many comforting programs at Moody Broadcasting, Elaine - 24 - 7...
I used to listen to this show back in the early 80s. I was richly blessed by the music and message.

This is the result of personal holiness to Christ.
I remember when Songs in the Night was broadcasted from Midwest Bible Church in the 40ties. Precious memories. Thanks for sharing

I think he may have been filling in for Don Hustad at the organ. It is a rich memory
