we have a supplemental hymnal to the main Episcopal hymnal. This supplemental hymnal is known as LEVAS, which stands for Lift Every Voice and Sing. We have a choirmaster from New Orleans that really understands the music. LEVAS has many traditional American hymns, including many African-American hymns, like Precious Lord, My Hope is Built on Nothing Less, Leaning on the Everlasting Arms, etc.

Here is another great version.
