I camped out over night on Parliament Square. I often think back to the scene during this hymn. It was such a moment. Two women in the crowd were singing a harmony over the singing that was coming from the Abbey & was being broadcast on speakers above us. We were all standing in what is usually one of the busiest parts of London, in perfect silence, listening to this moving hymn. I think we were all just trying to grasp the enormity of what had happened - one of our greatest ever monarchs had passed away. It was really beautiful.
I’m American raised Presbyterian and my mother was pipe organist at our church. I know this song well. At the end, is what is called a descant, it’s an added higher pitch usually soprano, that is sung in between other normal notes. In choir, it was my most favorite thing to sing. It is absolutely ethereal. Since we are so beneath Heaven’s glory, we must need to be changed to enter it’s majesty or we could not in human form, endure it. Glorious.🕊🌹
@@DelticRon I love Methodists, very similar to ours! Her older sister was Methodist and played the organ for her church in Griffin, GA. I have two of my moms hymnals, one has a lot of missing pages where the book wouldn’t stay open so she would tear out the page 😄 so it would lay flat. Later they got her one with ring binders still, she preferred flat. Because with an organ she had two keyboards, foot pedals, plus stops, all kinds of sound pulls, she had to turn pages fast! I was so young when she started I don’t think I truly appreciated her skills until after she passed. I have her music … good memory.☺️🙋🏻♀️
Thank you for your explanation of descant. I first noticed that when listening to a version of Abide With Me (which I am sorry the Queen hadn't selected for her funeral).
The music and words of the hymns chosen by Her Majesty for her own funeral and committal service were beautiful and were from all corners of her United Kingdom. Listening to the words, Her Majesty tells us that life moves on, nothing lasts forever, we leave this world as we arrived and all crowns and kingdoms eventually come to an end apart for the Kingdom of Heaven. Our beloved Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's passing leaves a massive hole in hearts all around the world, she may be gone, but she will never be forgotten. May God's angels keep her safe for eternity.
Absolutely magnificent. Beautifully sung by the choir of Westminster Abbey as only they do. A fitting send off to our most high & mighty Monarch The late Queen Elizabeth II. May Her Majesty Rest In Eternal Peace. 🇬🇧👑🇬🇧✝️🙏🏼🕊.
This is THE best this country has to offer here, the best hymn by our foremost hymn writer, sung to the best tune in our finest church. A fitting tribute to HM the Queen. Absolutely fabulous!
This clip HAS to be heard in Surround Sound with subwoofers at all four corners. Truly an experience! Love when the horns kick in and the voices soar (descant).
I have been searching the whole internet world this Hymn, thank you, thank you! Been crying hard when I heard this during the Queen's funeral ...absolutely speak to my soul!
A wonderful hymn by Wesley that speaks of the wonder and greatness of God in our salvation. May this be so for the Queen. The way it was orchestrated for this service with the incredible descant and majestic trumpets in the final really is a foretaste of heaven for all those who believe in Christ
@@spiritdei thank you. We are also including “Guide Me, O Thou Great Redeemer” and “Praise, My Soul, the King of Heaven.” I’m Episcopalian (the American branch of the Church of England), so it will be a very traditional “high church” wedding. Seeing the Queen’s funeral made me proud to be Episcopalian.
My sister had this hymn at her wedding, it’s from the book of Timothy, the words are so moving and fitting for any occasion. Congratulations on your wedding, hope you both have a lovely day.
I was tearing up during this hymn today, what was spoken during the service was very moving too. Rest in the Lords love and presence forevermore Queen Elisabeth, Thankyou for your service
What a beautiful and wonderful melody - I have sung it on so many conferences and gatherings before! Today I realized how much I miss the english hymns ...
Love divine, all loves excelling, joy of heav’n, to earth come down, fix in us thy humble dwelling, all thy faithful mercies crown. Jesus, thou art all compassion, pure, unbounded love thou art. Visit us with thy salvation; enter ev'ry trembling heart. Come, Almighty, to deliver, let us all thy life receive. Suddenly return, and never, nevermore they temples leave. Thee we would be always blessing, serve thee as thy hosts above, pray, and praise thee without ceasing, glory in thy perfect love. Finish, then, thy new creation; true and spotless let us be. Let us see thy great salvation perfectly restored in thee. Changed from glory into glory, till in heav’n we take our place, till we cast our crowns before thee, lost in wonder, love and praise.
Trumpets and organs go together both wonderful instruments that reach HIM above with praise and honor and our Love. PAX to all who Love HIM Believe in HIM and will defend HIM to the last drop of our blood. Pax+
Can’t beat a good Welsh hymn tune Blaenwern is a Welsh Christian hymn tune composed by William Penfro Rowlands (1860-1937), during the Welsh revival of 1904-1905. It was first published in Henry H. Jones' Cân a Moliant (1915). The tune is named after Blaenwern Farm near Tufton, Pembrokeshire, where Rowlands sent his son from Porth to stay with friends of the family to convalesce as it was thought the fresh air would assist his recovery: he named the tune in honour of them.
As a cradle Methodist, this Charles Wesley hymn is one of my favorites. I have really become fond of this musical setting. The singing here is what heaven will be like: “til we cast our crowns before Thee, lost in wonder, love, and praise”.
The Queen's Royal Military Forces are top notch. Considering this was a first Sovereign Funeral for 70 yrs, everyone involved did such a wonderful job. 🙏💜🌌
‘Come, Almighty to deliver; let us all Thy life receive; suddenly return and never, nevermore Thy temples leave. Thee we would be always blessing, serve Thee as Thy hosts above; pray, and praise Thee without ceasing, glory in Thy perfect love.’
Her late Majesty said that her funeral should be short and not bore people (or God!). As usual she got it right! May she rest in peace and rise in Glory!
Es fliegen meine Gedanken sanft dahin..zu dir oh Königin. Wie ein ton zur himmlischen Sinfonie...ruhe dort im ewigen Frieden..oh du schönste Königin ❤❤
It's so sad there are so many Scandals, Gossips about the Royal Family via social media. May the soul of HRH rest in peace. Lady Diana too. She has been dead so long ago and yet scandal after scandal about her which is all in the past keeps re surfacing. May Lady Diana rest in peace too
The hymn tune here is called Blaenwern - written in 1905 by a Welsh school-teacher and composer William Rowlands. Original words by Charles Wesley. The descant was written by Christopher Robinson, who I believe is still alive today.
3:42 - There's something quite incredible about this shot. Amongst this crowd is the likes of Joe Biden, Emmanuel Macron, Ursula von der Leyen, and Jacinda Ardern...even Jair Bolsonaro is there. All our world leaders, with so many differences, came to pay homage; almost as if, in some way, the world united for 90 minutes. No one could have claimed more respect from the world than Queen Elizabeth II: this shot proves this.
Was there a stray minor 7th note in parts of the last verse, including the final bar - maybe an overtone on one of the bass organ notes - or is it my computer sound card not being up to the job?
@@littlecloudsong7601 This has MUCH better sound quality and no bass distortion as you had noted: th-cam.com/video/CQ5tA-2atkw/w-d-xo.html (I asked them to reload it in 5.1 SURROUND now that TH-cam supports it).😁

Do some research, Diana by her own admission was no victim and played a very cunning game. I loved Diana as much as the rest of the world but she was the first to admit she was not innocent in any of the war of the Wales’s.
She was a constitutional Monarch. She had no political power, yet led the World with a dedication and love few others could manage. For 70 years. Try giving up your life for others.

Queen Elizabeth was so based! Nothing was going to stop her from putting on a Christian example even after death.
The glorious hymns of Charles Wesley bring new depth to even such a profound service.
Absolutely magnificent. Beautifully sung by the choir of Westminster Abbey as only they do.
A fitting send off to our most high & mighty Monarch The late Queen Elizabeth II.
May Her Majesty
Rest In Eternal Peace.

What a hymn writter Charles Wesley was
The best hymns are Wesley songs.
Prince George and Princess Charlotte were amazing, what well behaved children.
This clip HAS to be heard in Surround Sound with subwoofers at all four corners. Truly an experience! Love when the horns kick in and the voices soar (descant).
Omg! What a glorious hymn. Soul lifting. The Queen picked nothing but the best hymn for her funeral. May she RIP.
Mind blowing absolutely mind blowing - what a hymn what a service - thank you to everyone.
@#JohnnyDeppIsRacist what justice? It was a civil trial. If his accuser wanted justice she had the option of trial. But she took.the money lol
I have been searching the whole internet world this Hymn, thank you, thank you!
Been crying hard when I heard this during the Queen's funeral ...absolutely speak to my soul!
Glad you were able to find it Flyfly
This hymn has been a favourite of my family for years. Sung at so many weddings. A wonderful hymn of praise.
There are at least 3 different tunes for this hymn--all of them great.
That descant and the rich harmonic movement at the end...just stunning.
A wonderful hymn by Wesley that speaks of the wonder and greatness of God in our salvation. May this be so for the Queen. The way it was orchestrated for this service with the incredible descant and majestic trumpets in the final really is a foretaste of heaven for all those who believe in Christ
I so agree. May our late Majesty rest in peace and rise in Glory.
I’m having this hymn sung at my wedding in May, in this arrangement with brass and pipe organ. Such a beautiful and moving piece.
Congratulations on your upcoming wedding. I am sure the guests will enjoy singing this song.
@@spiritdei thank you.

The Archbishop of Canterbury gave one of the best sermon.
The best ever. Those who serve will be loved and remembered, while those who kling to Power and privileges will be long forgotten.
Great hymn Thank you your majesty for your service to ur people and God save the King from your loyal subjects in Northern Ireland
Thanks for listening
The trumpets moved me absolutely
The Descant is Breathtaking. The Queen really deserved this beautiful Service. World will never quite be the same without her steadfast presence.
What a beautiful and wonderful melody - I have sung it on so many conferences and gatherings before! Today I realized how much I miss the english hymns ...
This was a beautiful funeral service
OMG! Goosebumps all over me especially on that descant verse, Unreal!
Love divine, all loves excelling,
joy of heav’n, to earth come down,
fix in us thy humble dwelling,
all thy faithful mercies crown.
Jesus, thou art all compassion,
pure, unbounded love thou art.
Visit us with thy salvation;
enter ev'ry trembling heart.

Suddenly return, and never,
nevermore they temples leave.

Let us see thy great salvation
perfectly restored in thee.
Changed from glory into glory,
till in heav’n we take our place,
till we cast our crowns before thee,
lost in wonder, love and praise.
Thank you for uploading the lyrics
Beautiful hymn, beautiful words.
I think you'll find the original English version is "Pure and spotless let us be"... That's what we sing in the UK...
@@shuttergirlUK that's what we also sing in the Island with a totally different island tune and vibe. Old hymns are uplifting
Thanks for sharing the lyrics
The last verse of that is sublime. Magnificent.
A beautiful Methodist hymn penned by Charles Wesley.
My best too very inspirational hymns
What a Christian hero
Wesley was not Methodist - he was an Anglican.
Timeless Hymn, beautiful people rest well my beautiful queen till we meet at the resurrection.🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇭🇬🇭
A befitting burial for our own dear Queen Elizabeth RIP.
I welled up at this beautiful hymn, bringing together temporal and eternal glory so beautifully over our nation
très émouvant , Paix dans le monde
I included this hymn and the others used in Her Majesty's Funeral and committal service at the church I play for the Sunday after her services
The part where the trumpets join the organ was so very beautiful and moving, and added a touch of majesty to the arrangement. ❤❤❤❤
Trumpets and organs go together both wonderful instruments that reach HIM above with praise and honor and our Love.
PAX to all who Love HIM Believe in HIM and will defend HIM to the last drop of our blood. Pax+
I was also impressed by the congregational singing .
Im austrian. I heard that Song at the queens funeral. I never heard a Song morebeutiful. For her , but also for me to grow.

Extremely moving and magnificent. God bless the Queen RIP.
Well done our beautiful royal family , an absolutely stunning send off for our queen , may god bless you all ❤❤❤
Blaenwern - one of the sweetest hymn tunes I’ve ever heard and by far one of my favorites. And from Wales, with love 🏴 ✝️
Absolutely phenomenal hymn. Changed from glory to glory..
beautiful hymn. Makes me tear up.
The Queen's Royal Military Forces are top notch. Considering this was a first Sovereign Funeral for 70 yrs, everyone involved did such a wonderful job. 🙏💜🌌
I so agree. A wonderful job and what a tribute to our late Majesty.
So uplifting. So divine. Thank you Father God for giving us such a wonderful hymn to praise you
Wyrazy głębokiego szacunku dla Królowej. Szczere wspołczucie dla Rodziny
I am an Episcopalian, we are from Henry the 8th breaking away from the church at that time. All of these hymn make my heart sing.
One of my favourite hymns. I want it sung on my funeral
Charles Wesley one of the greatest Britons ever
Me too
Priceless. Timeless. 💕
‘Come, Almighty to deliver;
let us all Thy life receive;
suddenly return and never,
nevermore Thy temples leave.
Thee we would be always blessing,
serve Thee as Thy hosts above;
pray, and praise Thee without ceasing,
glory in Thy perfect love.’
Très bel hymne comme tous les hymnes anglais. Chanté avec ferveur par l’assemblée et le chœur lui donne une dimension profondément sacrée.
The last scene pointing the crown touched my mind with soul lifting voice deep inside the heart says:- 'what do I leave behind, when I pass away'
lovely hymns
Her late Majesty said that her funeral should be short and not bore people (or God!). As usual she got it right! May she rest in peace and rise in Glory!
You are a hero for posting this

Please, I need the name of the hymn., I love it so much and have been searching for it

Hi the words are posted within in the comments and in the description. Blessings!
A popular alternate tune of this hymn is “Hyfrydol.”
Does anyone know, which setting this is, and where one can get it?
The hymn tune here is called Blaenwern - written in 1905 by a Welsh school-teacher and composer William Rowlands. Original words by Charles Wesley.
The descant was written by Christopher Robinson, who I believe is still alive today.

what do you achieve in saying that?
