Favorite Hymns is the forty-fifth album by American singer/guitarist Glen Campbell, released in 1989 (see 1989 in music). In the liner notes, Campbell stated: "This album with the exception of "I See Love" and "Talk Oak Tree", is made up of songs I learned as a child, in a little country church in Billstown, Arkansas. What a great message in these songs. I thank God for the privilege of recording them".
