    Find out the true story behind the FA Cup Final anthem sung each year at the Wembley final. It’s one of the many loved traditions of the FA Cup as thousands join in singing the hymn before each final…but what does it mean?
    Thank you to the team at Wembley and the FA for the tour and the opportunity to film in the stadium. And big thanks to Robin Ham, Ben Wilkinson & Kenny Wiles for your help writing the script and to Charlotte Matthews for singing the song.

      +Laurence McGonagle Thanks Laurence, we're hoping to create regular videos. We've got some fun ideas for future ones. We're currently working on one that's themed around a series of books called 1001 things to do before you die.

    Love this. Do you know how he became a Christian? I'd love to know the story of how he got that hope in the first place

      +Alice Cornes Yeah I think it was a passage from the Bible called Ephesians chapter 2 verses 1-10. He read it to a friend who was dying...but later himself thought more about the passage and realised that if it was true it was life changing. It speaks about how God offers people mercy and gives what we could never deserve.

      Hopefully forever. I'm not British, but I know this song still has a rightful place as a reminder of our common humanity.

      It’ll die if the current clowns attending FA Cup finals refuse to sing it

    The only part it doesn't include is why it is sung at the cup final.
