This is glorious, in the true sense of the word. Thank you. I looked at the date of this performance and started weeping - right before the lockdown. Oh, how I pray all of these musicians and their families have been kept safe from this killer disease! May we be able to praise God once again in united voices and instruments, not 6' apart, but shoulder to shoulder, voice to voice, lifting our voices toward heaven. What a moving performance!
@Linda: Yes, I noticed that date, too -- it adds special poignance to the words "and whether our tomorrows be filled with good or ill, we'll triumph through our sorrows and rise to bless you still." What a message.
Thank you for your beautiful comment. While our tomorrows certainly brought Ill, the good greatly outweighed it. We are happy, healthy, and continuing to raise our voices in song more fervently than ever.
So heartening to see these wonderful young boys and men singing thus hymn - I am actually amazed we have any young people who go to church or sing in choirs. America has become so godless. So this is really beautiful.
I vow to thee, my country, all earthly things above, Entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love; The love that asks no question, the love that stands the test, That lays upon the altar the dearest and the best; The love that never falters, the love that pays the price, The love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice. And there's another country, I've heard of long ago, Most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know; We may not count her armies, we may not see her King; Her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering; And soul by soul and silently her shining bounds increase, And her ways are ways of gentleness, and all her paths are peace.
O God beyond all praising, We worship You today - And sing the Love amazing That songs cannot repay… *…For we can only wonder* *At every gift You send,* *At blessings without number,* *And mercies without end!* We lift our hearts before You And wait upon Your word, We honor and adore You, Our great and mighty Lord! *…For we can only wonder* *At every gift You send,* *At blessings without number,* *And mercies without end!* For Christ, Thy Gift from Heaven From death has set us free - And we through Him are given The final Victory! Then hear, O gracious Savior, Accept the love we bring, That we who know Your favor May serve You as our King! And whether our tomorrows Be filled with good or ill, We'll triumph through our sorrows And rise to bless You still! To marvel at Your beauty And glory in Your ways, And make a joyful duty Our sacrifice of praise! *…our sacrifice...* *…our Sacrifice of Praise!*
What a great piece the blend is so beautiful. This choir is so diverse. Praise God May his blessing flow on each of you. Thank you so much. I am blessed
That was absolutely superb! I got chills. I've listened to many versions, but the tempo, the all male voices, the descant, brass and organ put it over the top.
This is so beautiful, that I have listened to this 4 times (and will probably keep listening to this many more times), and have shared or will share this with family and friends. I think that Gustav Holst would have definitely enjoyed listening to this! The orchestra and organ are marvellous with the beautifully powerful male voices!! Thanks for sharing this exceptional and wonderful performance!

I could go sailing through heaven in a space ship and this one also would go with me. Deacon bob.
Tears. Beauty praising the Lord. Thank you.

@@GeorgiaBoyChoir : So happy to hear that! May God continue to bless you all and keep you in good health. You're truly an inspiration.
If more people could hear this, they couldnt help turning their lives over to God.
I agree 1000%
Wow..must make God smile.

I vow to thee, my country, all earthly things above,
Entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love;
The love that asks no question, the love that stands the test,
That lays upon the altar the dearest and the best;
The love that never falters, the love that pays the price,
The love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice.
And there's another country, I've heard of long ago,
Most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know;
We may not count her armies, we may not see her King;
Her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering;
And soul by soul and silently her shining bounds increase,
And her ways are ways of gentleness, and all her paths are peace.
I always sing these words except change it to I vow to thee my savior
O God beyond all praising,
We worship You today -
And sing the Love amazing
That songs cannot repay…
*…For we can only wonder*
*At every gift You send,*
*At blessings without number,*
*And mercies without end!*
We lift our hearts before You
And wait upon Your word,
We honor and adore You,
Our great and mighty Lord!
*…For we can only wonder*
*At every gift You send,*
*At blessings without number,*
*And mercies without end!*
For Christ, Thy Gift from Heaven
From death has set us free -
And we through Him are given
The final Victory!
Then hear, O gracious Savior,
Accept the love we bring,
That we who know Your favor
May serve You as our King!
And whether our tomorrows
Be filled with good or ill,
We'll triumph through our sorrows
And rise to bless You still!
To marvel at Your beauty
And glory in Your ways,
And make a joyful duty
Our sacrifice of praise!
*…our sacrifice...*
*…our Sacrifice of Praise!*
Thank you for posting the words so we can sing along. One of the most inspiring hymns of the Church.
Wonderful to see these young boys singing
their hearts out to God.
❤❤❤❤❤ Bravo!
This is extremely soothing and just what I needed before my ordination questioning. Thank you so much!
This is so serene,i really love this version,makes you feel you're so heavenly,God bless the composers of long ago.
What a treat - young boys and men together singing a wonderful arrangement by Mr. Forrest
What a great piece the blend is so beautiful. This choir is so diverse. Praise God May his blessing flow on each of you. Thank you so much. I am blessed
Thank you and God bless, you all, from Sri Lanka

Thank you so much. It really is a favorite of ours!
This truly is a prayer far exceeding the words to I pray my country,a poem that one learns at school for national events.
I still have goose bumps produced by this performance of one of my favorite hymns. The voices of the boys soared to the heavens.
This is so beautiful, that I have listened to this 4 times (and will probably keep listening to this many more times), and have shared or will share this with family and friends.

Thank you!
Peaceful! Harmonious!! I totally agree with you.
