- Several years ago Geoffrey Nobes, former Bandmaster of Portsmouth Citadel Band, composed a tune to words by hymn writer Nick Fawcett.
He dedicated this arrangement to the memory of his friend Bandmaster Derek Wilding of Lavenham Corps. - เพลง
Such a beautifulpiece of music. x
Today David travelled a long way to worship at his childhood church on the outskirts of Plymouth, as "He Had To!"
These true words and this superb music together, is helping him through the profound loss of the Plymouth tragedies over the past 3 days.
If it can help you through your sadness's too, then there is hope. Amen.
Absolutely gorgeous at any time but at these very challenging times, so uplifting.
This hymn speaks to my heart.May God be praised.
Fantastic playing of a fantastic composition
A lovely elegaic tune in a gentle setting. I met the composer today - his brother is one of my colleagues.
Moving and emotional. Beautiful music and words sensitively played. Thank you.....
I commented on this a year ago during yet another lockdown, not knowing what God had in store for me and my husband. I sadly lost my husband to pancreatic and liver cancer a few months ago so this is even more relevant to me now.
Just. what I needed life is such a struggle at the moment my faith is sorely being tested
God bless you. We all go through difficult times. Hang in there, He cares for you personally.
Truly beautiful music, beautiful lyrics, beautifully played, and beautifully captured.
MAY GOD BLESS YOU HE WILL I KNOW HE IS ALL WAYS BESIDE YOU 24 -7 TRUST AND KEEP FAITH YOU WILL GET THROUGH GOD BLESS YOU ALL WAYS JUNE STRETTON
Beautiful music with beautiful words
Beautiful setting of very moving words. And played so sensitively. Thanks.
Thank you for this. It is so relevant in these times.
Such beautiful words and music. Thankyou.
Well I have just come across this, but recognised the name Derek Wilding. My parents brig &Mrs Silvey were at lavenham in the 60s I am Eveline youngest daughter. Derek worked at A.H.Smith wholesale . So did I .
I am now living in Wymondham.
Norfolk. Beautiful music. Beautiful words. X
Peterborough band played this for my brother Grahams funeral, beautiful.
Lovely tribute to my father, and yes you are right about his work 🙏
Thank you so much for this. It means a lot to see my words set to music in this way. Such a beautiful setting and rendition.
Thank you for gifting this beautiful prayer to us all. I have shared this recording in recent days (Covid19) and God has used it powerfully to bring much blessing and encouragement. Thank you
Nick, the words are just beautiful, and just what I need for a service I am preparing for my church. Would you please give me permisssion to use this?

@@royalenemaynard6532 Just seen this, Royalene. Thank you so much. You're more than welcome to use the words in a service, and I think the Salvation Army are happy for the video to be used similarly. Every good wish. Nick
Here are the words from the ISB's site:
Prelude on the hymn tune 'Lavenham'

Prelude on the hymn tune 'Lavenham' composed by
Geoffrey Nobes has been a popular piece on tour with the thought
provoking lyrics being displayed on the screens whilst we have presented
this piece of music.
There have been numerous requests for a copy of these lyrics. Here
are the three verses from this hymn that we use with Geoffrey's
arrangement.
We hope and pray that these will be helpful to you.
Lord, there are times when I have to ask, ‘What?’ -
times when your love is not easy to spot.
What is life’s purpose and what of me here?’
Grant me some answers, Lord, make your will clear.
Lord, there are times when I have to ask, ‘How?’ -
times when what’s preached doesn’t square with life now.
Wrestling with doubt I ask, ‘How can this be?’
Grant me some answers, Lord, help me to see.
Lord, there are times when the questions run fast -
times when I fear that my faith may not last.
Help me, support me, Lord, help me get through.
Lead me through darkness till light shines anew.

Beautiful
Our band plays this piece but it has so much more meaning when words ate put to it
Such a blessing.
Thank you, Pamela; so pleased you play it and find it helpful. Nick's words are so beautiful. Geoff Nobes
Our band at Sale play this beautiful piece too. We always have the words on the screen so people are doubly blessed, but Geoff - thank you!
Lovely Tune, with a beautiful arrangement played only as the ISB can play
Wonderful words for today's society
Beautiful words
Stunning
Hard to find words to express the beauty and richness of this blending of words and tune! A great inspirational to sensitive listeners. Does anyone have the PPT for these words?
superb
Is this on Spotify, if so does anyone have the link?
Wonderful music and lovely words. But it'd be great if there was a piano version of this arrangement rather than just a brass band score.
Would it be possible to use this in my Corps? Just what I need.
Can anyone please send me the score😇
