What a blessing it is for me to sit back and hear your family commune in song with Jesus. What a wonderful gift you are giving to your precious mother as God prepares her coming to be with Him in Heaven. Prayers of comfort, strength and peace for you and your family. 🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼
"There my burdened soul found liberty, At Calvary"..... Thank you Jesus.... This makes me smile....How wonderful for your mother.... In her last days she can see her kids, grand kids,....How wonderful. God Bless you all.
I love these great gospel songs and the beautiful singing! Most all of these were the ones my family and I grew up singing in church! Thanks and God bless each of you!
This is a testimony of such family love, caring and devotion to your mother! Absolutely amazing. What a precious way to honor your loved ones! Never seen anything like this! God Bless all! 🙏🙏
I am Baptist and setting here singing base with you. I sang these great songs as a kid. You have been a blessing to me! I miss the gospel songs. May the Lord richly bless each of your precious family
Beautiful family.I pray your precious mother has a blessed home going. You folks will miss her, but I am glad you are gathering and singing with her, something I she loves. She loves you all for being with her in such a comforting way. Singing praises to our Lord. You are wonderful to share with us all. I love the old hymns as it is a part of who I am. I will pray for you all and God’s will be done for your mom, and I know soon she will be in the arms of her Savior.
Love how the Amish sing !!! It is like HEAVEN to me !!! This is what HEAVEN is really like up there !!! I know that was there but GOD told me that I had other things to do !!! Now it is over 47 almost 48 yrs since that time !!! I wait for My LORD to call me HOME to HIM!!!
My siblings, parents, aunt and uncle, and cousins sang hymns in our Grandmother’s hospital room before her home going. What a cherished memory for each of us. We miss her and Grandpa so much, but know we will see them again!

This is just beautiful, Thank you for sharing your family and singing with us. Continued prayers. I love the old hymns of my childhood. Your harmonies are amazing. God is good, and His mercy endures forever. Thank you, Jesus!
Beautiful family get-together and singing praise to our heavenly father. May your dear mother find great peace and solace at this particular time in her life.. All the singing and harmony reminds me of my childhood in my grandparents' home with all families together.
Nice music ‼️ 🇩🇪 " Darum sag ich es noch einmal, Gott ist die Liebe, Gott ist die Liebe, er liebt auch mich ! " Das Lied kenne ich doch. Vor sehr, sehr langer Zeit hatte ich das zum letzten Mal gehört. Schön, daß das heutzutage noch gesungen wird.
Elvie, you have a beautiful family I follow Joe and Priscilla for a while. I know them pretty well. Lots of comments enjoy watching the videos your dad mom are beautiful people from Germany. My dad was from Germany and I really respect the religion. I love God I pray to God and your mother is gonna be fine when she gets home to heaven. It’s gonna be a wonderful place, eternal life is the best for all of us anyway Elvie I’ve watched your videos before, but mostly your young brother Joe and Purcella for a long time I did was born in Idaho Twin Falls. I love Idaho, Montana. I used to go to Montana when I was a kid was very beautiful up there at Kalispell Lake Kalispell and up on the border that little town I never forget it but the beautiful mountains. I remember this was in the 70sanyway God bless God
What a blessing for your beautiful mother! I'm sure she enjoyed and appreciated the love shown her. Looking forward to being back in the fold soon! Thank you for sharing and give our love to all. ❤
Very beautiful singing.. I love it... it's very special that you do this for your mom.❤❤.. my parents both left us so unexpectedly... 😢.. Thank you for sharing this special moment with us ❤
Thank you Elvie for sharing the beautiful family singing for your Mom, I believe that might be your brother Ervin an his wife ???? Your sisters, wonder if your sister Arlene will come visit ??? I realize not all your siblings were present...
Wundervoller alter Gesang, sehr sehr schön. Oh Gott seit über 300 Jahren fanden die Amishs Wurzeln in Amerika, einfach großartig der Weg. Ich finde es sehr schade, dass unsere deutsche Sprache zurück blieb, leider, aber auch verständlich. Neue Heimat und neue Sprache. Sehr schönes Video Elvie, achtet und ehrt die ALTEN, so ist es richtig. Viele Grüße aus Frankfurt, LG Gerold Wonderful old singing, very, very beautiful. Oh God for over 300 years the Amish found roots in America, just great the way. I think it's a pity that our German language was left behind, unfortunately, but also understandable. New home and new language. Very nice video Elvie, respect and honor the OLD, that's the right way. Many greetings from Frankfurt, LG Gerold
Actually we are fluent in Pennsylvania German, an official USA language which is derived from the VestWorder Pfalz dialect. Most Amish can also read the old Luther German.
this is so beautiful to listen to before I go to bed. I am so happy I found you and your family today, GOD is so good to all of us! I am going to tell our daughter to start listen to this She is a faithful follower of our LORD.
Anna Mary and my brother Ervin are no longer here, they were here for 2 weeks helping to care for Mom. Here is the video when they sang with us: Amish Family Harmony Singing For Grandma Orpha th-cam.com/video/JVeHBq8tRMc/w-d-xo.html
@@AmishMeadowsOfficial Ich habe mir das Liederbuch bestellt. Jetzt kann ich die Lieder singen…auch gemeinsam mit lieben Glaubensgeschwistern. Vielen Dank für die Information. Liebe Grüße und Gottes Segen🙏🏻
I beginning to understand that the Amish don’t have musical instruments during praise and worship and that’s Ok. I Love the voices. May I ask why y’all don’t raise your hands during worship? I’m NOT judging, I just don’t understand. Please help me understand. I likewise will help you understand how I believe. Brothers and Sisters, this is not a salvation issue, so let us understand each other. Eventually my wife and I will be moving to your area around Libby
I’ll explain. This was in my dad’s house and was not necessarily a worship service. It was just a couple nights ago. In our church services there are instruments and plenty of clapping dancing and raising of hands during a normal Sunday morning.
Any time we sing hymns of the faith, it IS beautiful worship poured out to our Heavenly Father! No matter if hands are lifted, or if we’re in a church or a barn or anywhere. Thank you for this video. Beautiful!
There are people that come to the Amish and tell them they want to join up. The Amish don't dissuade them but they simply try to explain that it never works out. That type of life is way too difficult for anyone to step into. Plus the rules are way too difficult for a new comer to abide by it. For instance, for some communities, it's a whole new world to go the store. Some communities don't allow bicycles. The cohesion is very difficult next to impossible for a Johnny come lately to fall into. For instance hair style on females and dress have a strict to code to abide by. It has to be like everyone else. In spite of popular belief the Amish don't speak German to one another. They know German but they don't use it. Those "Rumpspringen" documentaries on You Tube are blown way out of proportion, about Amish youth turning 16 and can try out the what's done in the English World and they go completely crazy. 60% don't even take part in it. "Oh mother, I could never do anything like that." Some who do it, may go to a film or maybe try bowling. Less than 5% try out alcohol. The one's that try it out, don't, in most cases, don't go to excess. They may try drink a beer, and most then realize very quickly realize it's the "Devil's Medicine." But on the whole I would say that they're happier than the average person is on the outside. I think the main reason for that is, they do not place value on objects. They're not impressed by people who have an expensive car, or someone who is wealthy. They place real value on the family and family values. They see the joy of a child. Less than10% leave it. I'm not saying it's impossible, but a wealthy playboy would have an upward climb of trying to impress an Amish female. I'd say an Amish female would see him as something totally else as what someone like that, believes himself to be.
Your commentary is interesting and partly correct. Amish do speak German to each other, but in a dialect called Pennsylvania German. I add this: With hundreds of Amish communities, there are subcultures and many different ways of doing things and you can’t lump them all into one stereotype. So some of the things you say do not apply to all Amish everywhere. A lot of what you commented on is not applicable to our community in Libby Montana, for example.
Actually no! Those folks are a branch that call themselves Charity. It saying there’s not and Amish in the group but those folks are Charity not Amish!
Beautiful ministry to elders and family. Love the singing. I sing to my 100 year old friend every Sunday

When so much evil covers our world, here is found a haven of God's peace. Thanks for the lifting up of Our saviors presence up. Keep singing.
