#CelticWorship #PraiseGathering #ItIsWell #IExaltThee
When hear these beautiful old hymns, my soul rejoics and my heart is made glad. Thanksgiving and glory to our Lord Jesus!
I'm almost 68. He saved me from sin at 18. This is my testimony for all he has done and brought me through.
I'm 73 years old and, having some Scotts'/Irish in me, I've never heard,or seen, this hymn done in a more beautiful way! Thank God for you all who sang ,played the instruments, and produced the video!!To God be the glory, now and forever more!!!🙏❤️✨️
Amen! Maurice
I know how you feel! I am 56% Irish through my 2 parents! But, through my Dad, I am 3% Norwegian and 2% Scottish. Through my Mom, I am 6% Norman/ English! This makes me 67% Celtic! My people, the Irish and the Celts, are great people! That are distinct but related!
With you brother 🙏🏽
May your soul prosper and be joyful
As we sing the word of God
Bless You
Amen!
Also 73 and I completely agree, uplifting
Can't wait until we are all around the throne of our great God and saviour singing his praises together.
I am with you, sister!
The Holy Spirit led me to this song today and I've been crying for at least a half an hour. I've heard "It is well" and "I Exalt Thee" hundreds of times. But this arrangement just destroyed me. In a very good way. Thank you!!!
I come back to this often to center myself in Him who is worthy and those who would see this present suffering as a fellowship in His suffering. All glory to God. I EXALT THEE with you His saints.
Here I am again, I exalt thee oh Lord
My Father was a seeker, a mystic whose greatest joy was pushing into searching the Love that God gave us in Scripture. He read everything he could get his hands on that related to faith and Scripture. Teaching was his profession. When dimentia claimed his mind, it was heartbreaking to watch my hero lose the very thing he loved most- using his mind to glorify his God. He finally went to his Maker early during the Covid pandemic. And as sad as it was to lose him, we rejoiced for him to be whole again.
He loved simple worship songs that focused on Truth and the praise of God. It Is Well was his favorite hymn... and I Exalt Thee brought him to joyful tears of praise many, many times.
This version is fantastic, and he wouldve had it on loop/repeat for hours.
We never know why things happen. My dad was not very appreciative of worship music, Bible study or anything like that. He eventually became Alzheimic, sorry to say.
But God can use what the devil did for evil to do good. Maybe in his last days, He was filling your father in an unusual way, with goodness.
The LORD inhabits the praise of His people!
Can't help but believe He's singing right along...
Don't know about that, but the LORD will sing: Zephaniah 3:17 in the Bible says, "The Lord your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing".
On Jan 6 my best friend got his wings and is with his Lord after a year long battle with cancer. When the grief overwhelms me, I play this song to redirect my mind to a wonderfully loving God who now enjoys the presence of my friend. One day he and I will sing this beautiful song of exaltation together to the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
Why are my eyes crying listening to this beautiful music. Will God hand out tissues in Heaven.
This must be what it's going to be like when we get to sing together in heaven.
Every race, every nation, every tongue!! Every tribe!! You better believe it
WOW JUST IMAGINING!
👏🙌✝️
Just imagine the music in Heaven, many of us are well practiced. Explosive.
Thank you for singing these songs during this evil time but very soon we all who love the King of Kings appearing will be with Him.
I agree. We will be changed in the twinkling of an eye. And meet him in the clouds and forever be with him.
Reminds me of Chapel service when I was in Seminary in the early to mid 1990s!
Amen, amen and amen
My soul is replenished.
Absolutely gorgeous. Praise to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
God provides three things that I count on to sustain me: Prayer (to talk it over with God), Scripture (to remain grounded in facts), and worship - to encourage my soul. This video, such an exquisite truthful worship, is an extremely important vessel of worship to drink from to be refreshed. God is using this to encourage and console. Thank you.
Well said. Thanks for those wise words
So beautiully expressed = prayer , scripture, and worship.. Thank you .
Remember the Lord gave His Holy Spirit to sustain, comfort and teach us.
The most peace and joy I know is praising His Holy Name!
The man who wrote this song had just lost his family in a shipwreck. Amazing testimony to God using a tragedy for one of the most enduring and transforming hymns in history.
Psalm 104:33 - I will sing to the Lord as long as I live; I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.
Amen 🙏
Me too.
Wow!!! Just…wow!! This was absolutely incredible. Nice work! God is good!!
Can't stop crying ! the presence of God is so strong !! well done guys !
Ditto!
God’s presence is always strong, even when we don’t feel Him or have an emotional response. Because He has said “I will never leave you not forsake you” (Hebrews 13:5) we can take comfort that He is near even when He seems so far away. Hope this encourages you today 😊
Dear Matt, join us on 18/19 June 2022 in Glasgow Royal Concert Hall or 25th June in Usher Hall, Edinburgh for a live rendition. Tickets available online. Come sing God’s praises with us! God bless.
@@delaneyberg9788 Amen! Thank you! Praise God for His presence.
Amen
I Exalt Thee Oh Lord Jesus Miracle Sign's and Wonder's of His Great Love Amen Hallelujah
So beautiful when a song touches one's heart. Praise God.
I love this! Been listening to it a couple years, on & off.😅❤
Closest I've seen to a heavenly choir on earth--many thanks! I imagine this as a taste of the feeling we will have in singing "worthy is the Lamb!" for eternity.
Love this group and love this song, they are heavenly blessed and hey they're Scottish so I'm a bit bias.
May every ear who listens be blessed 🙌
Hallelujah! To God be the Glory! From Canada! 🇨🇦
How wonderful seeing so many praising God accompanying these precious musicians!! Hallelujah!!!
I EXALT Thee - Lord we need you in America 🇺🇸 now - Your Kingdom Come- Your will be done and protect us from the EVIL one - OH Lord of Hosts and Angel Armies Come.

Listening from Texas, thank you . Such beautiful music to worship our King Jesus with. What a blessing y'all are.
El Paso here!
Can you imagine, what heaven will sound like when all nations, sa ved through conversion (Reborn) start singing in heaven
When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say,
It is well, it is well with my soul.
Refrain:
It is well with my soul,
It is well, it is well with my soul.
Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come,
Let this blest assurance control,
That Christ hath regarded my helpless estate,
And hath shed His own blood for my soul.
My sin-oh, the bliss of this glorious thought!-
My sin, not in part but the whole,
Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more,
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!
But, Lord, ’tis for Thee, for Thy coming we wait,
The sky, not the grave, is our goal;
Oh, trump of the angel! Oh, voice of the Lord!
Blessed hope, blessed rest of my soul!
I exalt thee!
I exalt thee
Oh Lord!
I exalt thee!
I exalt thee!
Oh Lord!
It is well. It is well, with my soul.
And Lord, haste the day when the faith shall be sight,
The clouds be rolled back as a scroll;
The trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend,
Even so, it is well with my soul.
Thank you so much for the lyric!
Same, thanks so much!
Thank you
I exqlt theee is omly the taglibe. Its nott a song
@@jaimejrhernandez8142 Yes, it is. I sang it as a child in church.
For Thou, o Lord, art high above all the earth
Thou art exalted far above all gods
For Thou, o Lord, art high above all the earth
Thou art exalted far above all gods
I exalt Thee, I exalt Thee
I exalt Thee, o Lord
I exalt Thee, I exalt Thee
I exalt Thee, o Lord
There's more, of course, and googling "I Exalt Thee lyrics" will show you the rest, but I think you get the picture. It's very much a song.
It is so moving, God Bless you All. May this song circle the globe again and again to bring Comfort and peace and OOY
Wow! I love all these "old" hymns. Lovely... gives me goosebumps listening to this, and even better with the Celtic twist. Heart lifting to see all these ordinary Christians coming together in public worship, even in difficult times when our normal mode of worship has been suppressed. Very moving... thanks! :-)
Also got goosebumps when I heard it.
Worship is surpressed? Don't let anyone outside of the church tell you how to worship!
@@khatazamabunda6270 I don’t understand
@@powdagirl6239 just realized that I commented now, I’m sorry it was a typing error, was listening to the song while jogging.
@@khatazamabunda6270 lol…no worries…hope you enjoyed your jog. God bless
THAT'S WHAT I AM TALKIN' 'BOUT! This a window into another realm some people call "home." Turns-out, "home" is right here on earth, it is just in an alternate reality, but it is right here. Jesus called it "the kingdom of God." See Him peaking through the lattice! Feel Him springing-up on the inside, Hear Him in each heart-beat saying, "I AM."
You describe this reality so beautiful. I wished every person on this eart could experience it.
HalleluYah!!!🤸♀️💃🏻😊
I exalt thee oh lord
Thank you,,,, all my brothers and sisters in Christ. I exalt Thee Lord Jesus. It is well!
We exalt you oh Great God. Thankyou to this band for their honour for the King of Kings.
One of Mt FAVORITES ❤ It is well. Phillip P Bliss was born here in Pennsylvania about 7 miles from my home. SOUNDS WONDERFUL
I think I am a little late, but thanks you all for the beautiful blessings that brings to my heart your adoration to JESUS. Love for every one from NC.
How beautiful blessed is the sound of praise, I just love it
WOW!!!!!!!! ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL
Love your work Celtic Worship!! I really miss your collaboration with Steph Macleod - they're my favourite worship songs ever. Blessings from the ends of the earth.
Well .It is one of my favorite hymns I have ever sung. I can't stop crying listening to your songs . I can feel the sincerity through your praising God. You can imagine how much I got grace thanks to your performance.
From. Seoul Korea
I exalt thee
I exalt Thee
I exalt Thee
Oh Lord (2x)
When peace like a river attendeth my way
When sorrows like sea billows roll
Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say
It is well, it is well with my soul
It is well (it is well)
With my soul (with my soul)
It is well, it is well with my soul
Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come
Let this blest assurance control
That Christ has regarded my helpless estate
And has shed His own blood for my soul
It is well (it is well)
With my soul (with my soul)
It is well, it is well with my soul
My sin, oh the bliss of this glorious thought
My sin, not in part, but the whole
Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!
It is well (it is well)
With my soul (with my soul)
It is well, it is well with my soul
But Lord Tis For Thee, For Thy coming we wait
The sky not the grave is our goal
Oh Trump of the angel! oh voice of the Lord
Blessed hope, blessed rest
of my soul
I exalt Thee, I exalt Thee
I exalt Thee, O Lord
I exalt Thee, I exalt Thee
I exalt Thee, O Lord
We exalt Thee,
We exalt Thee
We exalt Thee, O Lord
We exalt Thee,
We exalt Thee
We exalt Thee, O Lord
Thank you. I’ve been looking for the lyrics of this hymn sung this way ☺️
I exqlt theee is omly the taglibe. Its nott a song
@@LL-xx4iq ME TOO!
So in 50 years people will look at these videos and wonder why all these wonderful musicians aren’t in the same room. I won’t be around then, but some of you will be (maybe those questioning will be your kids or your grandkids). You’ll have to explain why…
This is the only good thing I've found from that ridiculous lockdown ideal
Christ's church indeed! By God's grace i will join the next union in worship.
Glory to God in the highest!
May The Lord restore our worship and raise men that will not vow to non other than Christ!!
Keep praising our Lord with your beautiful voices n music. God bless u all.
Só quem tem Cristo pode declarar que é feliz, independente das circunstâncias
If the new creation, where everything has been made perfect for ever, is a little bit like this, I know I shall be happy for a very long time. Thank you all, and I exalt him too.
... and I shall be happy right alongside of you, Andrew!
Praise and Glory to Jesus!!! Gives me goosebumps and happy tears 🙏🙏
Praise you, Jesus, for giving us your music!
Incredible guys! I exalt thee o Lord🙏🙏🙏 from 🇬🇧
Blessings to my Scottish Irish Gaelic brethren. It is well-Estoy bien 👍 with my soul. Love the lyrics of it for Jesus.
Naomi's voice! What a powerhouse!
The Holy Spirit almost floored me!🤗🙏🎶
We sing up to Him, "I Exalt Thee." He smiles at us and says, "I Absolve Thee."
Amen!! Praise King Jesus!! 👑✝️❤️🌎👨👩👦👦🐑☝🏼💪🏾⚓️🪨🏰🏔🛡🗡📖🙏🏼🧎🏼♀️🎶🙌🧂🕯💧🔥🤟
I love it! Listening from the Philippines.
Wow wow wow can't stop listening
"Oh, Lord, haste the day..."
This is absolutely _magnificent_ .

This precious song brings me such peace! Keep singing stripped down praise songs
I've listened to the video a few times. Powerful and so, so true
I love how the bagpipes were added in, such a well played musical touch!
it woud be wonderful to have another collaboration with Celtic Worship 🙌
I LOVE CELTIC WORSHIP!
I sure do miss videos like this..... it's sad how things have to change.
I am undone after hearing this.
Wonderful hymn, how it reminds me of my parents and my church childhood. Wonderful times gone. Rest in peace my dear father, thank you for teaching me the beauty of these hymns.
Glorious!
Love it! From Rochester, NY. God bless you all!
There are no words to describe.......Just want to soak in this Praise. GLORIOUS
Beautiful!!' Love the Celtic influence!!! My ancestors came from Scotland.
Speaking as a very lonely Christian in America--this was so encouraging to know you all are out there, joining me in worshipping our Creator. Albeit separate for now, but not forever.
You are never alone with Christ or in the presence of the a Holy Spirit Hannah.
🙏🏼✝️🙏🏼
"Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;" Col 2:14
"My sin! Oh the bliss of this glorious thought,
My sin not in part but the whole,
Is nailed to His cross an I bear it no more..."
Thank you all so much ---that was beautiful and very uplifting .
This is like the only way I listen to worship music anymore 😹🙂💗
Beautiful. Thank you all. God bless
There is something powerful about what you just did here. Glory to God for your lives!
Accept Christ's great gift!! He has so much for you! especially his peace...
