There is absolutely Nothing like singing in a chorus or choir. It's not just the melding of the music. It's the melding of the human spirit. CHORUS/CHOIRS FOREVER!!!!!!!!
Agreed, Beth. In this last year of being so isolated, this posting of faces, voices and instruments brings a joy that was missing since not being in a member of a choir.
This song isn’t about the human spirit, which brought about 262 million deaths through democide alone in the 20 century. This song is about King Jesus. The melding of the human spirit is only beautiful in so far as its purpose is to bring glory to Him.
My tears flow freely. My fears rush out of my eyes, my voice raised high and clear even though I am alone. I can't keep from singing, no I can't. I so miss my choir, miss the elastics in my music folder snapping at the most inopportune time, miss kicking my water bottle under a pew. God, I need to sing! Thank you!
As a retired choir director, it made me weep for missing my many choirs past. What a lovely arrangement. Singing together is magic. Thanks for reminding us of that.
Yes, I agree. It makes me think of several past choir directors, especially one wonderful lady who just died a few months ago in her mid 90s. I feel very blessed to have been part of several great choirs. They are very special
@@nfah86 I loved many of my students like they were my own kids. The emotional bond that is shared through creating art together is profound and lasting. I feel fortunate to have worked with kids from around 65 countries. I was continually in awe of the incredibly beautiful people that I had the opportunity to work with and rejoiced at the beautiful diversity (and strength because of it) in my international choirs.
This is one of my absolute favorite hymns. Very beautifully played and sung. I am in my church choir and really miss singing at Mass every Sunday. In the midst of all the world chaos we need to remember to cling to the Rock and keep on singing!
this song has carried me through many trials and troubles, and at 85 I have had my share of them, but always this song has lifted me to better heights and I am able to face life with hope and have a reason to go in singing, awesome words of hope in our creator
A mansion to stay,, a barn full of grains, a huge bank balance, fine clothings----Life is empty without songs, without music in praise to Almighty. Heartfelt appreciation& thanks to one & all for such a beautiful video.
I had this song stuck in my head from church, and tried to find a recording on TH-cam. THIS is the most beautiful performance of the song that I have ever heard. Thank you
Christ is always with us! I see him all around me everyday in the smiles of others, in the birds, butterflies, bumblebees and wildflowers growing up without any ones help but God’s! He gives us these amazing things to let us know that He is there with even during the darkest times! Thank you for this BEAUTIFUL video thank you made! I miss being in my choir sooo much but it lifted me up today and I shared it with my children. God bless each and everyone one of you and your families and we WILL get through this with God’s help! Love to you all♥️✝️
Watching this the Holy Spirit helps me to see that on our own we may have a gift but how much more beautiful when all those gifts are put together to create a beautiful harmony for God's glory!
Life has been a struggle the past year or so. My wife and I met in our college chorus, we sang in our church choir, and performed around the county, but she died this past summer. I may not have a great voice but singing brings me joy. I try to go back to this performance to bring me back to music. Great song and these musicians, especially Guiliana Sarullo, show how much music can mean to them and all of us. And, Guiliana does double duty both singing and playing flute. Thank you, all of you.
Keep singing Sir. Heaven will hear. Eternity is forever. We just must wait our turn. Heavenly Father ABBA and His Son Yeshua loves you and is keeping your wife in their arms.
Sing out like a bird! Be free as God intended. "Let my people go!" God is saying celebrate and sing praises. You made it through 2020. You will overcome evil, all of it.
It was the summer of 1998, in suburban Chicago. at Loyola Hospital. Clinical Pastoral Education, basic course. One of my colleagues/fellow students was named Amy, a Lutheran/ELCA seminary student from Iowa. The first time I heard this song was at a local church, where she led Sunday worship and preached a mighty fine sermon. I was thrilled at this wonderful hymn, never forgot that experience, and enjoy it to this day. I also have used it in my worship ministry. God Bless Amy, and all who serve the Lord. And thanks be to God for this awesome video gift!!
This song is the very heart and soul of one of my favorite Finnish hymns that I've been wishing all the English speaking world could enjoy... Then this week I found this one!!!! It's so much the impression of the song "Maa on niin kaunis" which of course is sung to the tune of "Fairest Lord Jesus" but with totally different words. If anyone wants to listen to that one, you're in for a treat. And you can find a translation if you search. Music is so beautiful, especially when used to praise our Savior and Creator, who is blessed forever, and coming soon. Great job with this, everyone! Maranatha!!!
What a wonderful arrangement of one of my favourite hymn tunes! Kudos to all who participated-- I don't get tired of watching this. Blessings and good wishes to you all from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.
I can't remember a time in my life when there wasn't singing. I am 74 and miss this so very much. I have always loved this song and the arrangement is stunning. I am trying to produce one of these with my own choir{ I have a choir of about 70 voices} and watching this only made me want to do it more. I was not able to really sing along, but perhaps the lump will be more gone during the second time! Thank you so much for this!
Technology has finally proven its real worth...to bring so many of us together in a purely joyous celebration of beauty and hope. I am a habitue of the concert and recital hall, and this gathering of musicians is thrilling to me! Is this the new iteration of "chamber" music. Thank you.
This beautiful rendition of Robert Lowry's hymn made my spirit soar and my eyes moisten. As a choral singer, I love the synergy that emerges when voices and instruments meld to create an uplifting experience - shivers and all. BRAVO for this production and all the participants. You truly have shown us the light at the end of this dark tunnel we are experiencing. May we all find the will and the grace to live and sing in harmony and love our neighbors far and wide.
This was just gorgeous. Thank you so much. I was going to say simply gorgeous but there is nothing simple here. I cannot imagine all the work this took in post-production to create this video, matching singers and instrumentalists, adjusting sound levels, and creating the video. It was worth every second. I miss hearing people sing and play instruments together so much. This rendition of this beautiful hymn made me cry and feel utter joy at the same time (As Lily Tomlin's Edith Ann says, "two feelings for the price of one!"). I so appreciate everyone's contributions to this creation.
wow! I have no idea how much skill on how many levels is involved in technological perfection of this fabulous, inspiring, soothing, comforting . . . virtual piece. I play this often, and I'm always intrigued, blessed with joy by it!
I'm a choir singer and my group has sung this. But this arrangement is the most gorgeous, perfect setting of a fabulous piece of music. I've been playing it over & over and have shared it with everyone I know. I LOVE seeing everyone's faces in the video. Thanks to all involved in bringing it to us.
What an uplifting and heart-soothing rendition of one of my favorite hymns! Right now, I am homebound, but, in the past, I have sung in church choirs as well as directed them. Singing with others, in a congregation or a choir, is one of the things I miss the very most. I am deeply grateful to every one of you who were involved in making this in any way, especially for sharing your talents, time and hard work as you created this video; listening to it, singing along with it has brought the Spirit of the Lord into my home and heart, and this spiritual gift has helped to make my Sabbath feel more like a Sabbath. May the Lord bless and keep each of you, and may He continue to inspire and lead the Podd Brothers in their writing and arranging of other, sacred pieces.
One hundred plus voices singing as one! Just sublime! A lovely hymn and every verse of the hymn is special, especially "no storm can shake my inmost calm, I hear the music ringing. I hear an echo in my soul, how I can keep from singing' I drift off to sleep singing those words silently in my head and as I rouse from my sleep those same words are with me. Virtual choir and orchestra, thank you.
How can I keep from singing! Throughout the paindemic (yes - pain…) this recording kept me afloat filling me with hope. Uplifted! I missed singing with my choir so much I could not sing without sobbing, so I relied on you and the lyrics of this piece of music to keep me grounded. Can’t thank you enough for all the beauty and spirit you brought to me and our upside down world. Thanks 🙏 Bless each of you always.
God bless all the musical people of all ages, who dedicate yourselves to your craft and do what you do to bring joy to us all, and all the technical wizards who figured out how to bring us these celebrations of life and spirit! Music lifts us all!
I teach PreK-5 Music in a small Catholic school in FL. My 2nd and 3rd grade students are so captivated by this song, they asked to learn it. The message is timeless and so comforting. Thank you.
Thank you to all the wonderful musicians who contributed to this video. It filled my heart with joy. May God bless you all, and I hope you will all remain safe and well, and, of course, keep singing!
These long weeks of isolation have truly been blessed by getting to see videos like this. Thank you so much to all of you who are able to figure out the technology that makes performances like this possible. I miss singing in my church choir so much that I can't help but have tears listening to these videos, wishing I could do the same. Blessings to all of the singers and instrumentalists for lifting our spirits and giving us hope that someday we can all sing together again.
I keep watching this, eyes closed sometimes, singing along sometimes. It's always been one of my uplifting go-to songs, but these musicians have taken it to a new level with their joyful and heartfelt rendition. HUGEST of thanks to you all!
Love, love this performance and every soul in it. I’ve experienced it quite a few times over the past year and feel like I know everyone! 😊 it’s a very good thing as I’ve been having hard times the past couple of years and this sometimes helps my spirit.
We are singing this in our spring concert in 2 weeks. What an inspiring video! I love how it focuses on the instruments during their solos, etc. So glad to be out of the Covid quarantine, but I hope we never forget all we learned from that experience...the centrality of community and the healing balm of music. Thank you so much!
Thank you for this expression of gratitude and joy to start our day.Thank you for redirecting my thoughts from challenges to the love and joy of our Savior. What a wonderful, selfless thing for all of you to do for all of us. Today, I will sing.
Thank you each and every one....my sisters and brothers in New York! What a totally uplifting experience during this difficult pandemic. Please, never stop making your music....it has filled at least one soul across the country in California.
I've been making some peace with the notion of worship without singing. Then I came across this and remembered that my faith was formed as much in choir as in church. Now, I don't know what we are going to do when we get back to church. But also, I think in all of this I've also not truly grieved what has been lost...I've been trying to fight it off. But this helps me, if only to remind me of what keeps me hopeful and to remind me of what I want to reclaim when 'normalcy' returns.
Grieving the loss of singing, though temporary, is painful, as it is what brings joy to so many! I hope I will have an opportunity to sing with others, virtually, and look forward to the day we can lift our voices together in person! God bless!
Thank you Adam, Matt, Jessica, Joe and the whole heap of the rest of you for being brave in singing/playing solo into your cell phone or laptop so this could be achieved! LOVE this so much. GRATEFUL.
It’s amazing the power of technology to draw people together. The absolute joy of singers’ smiling faces, moving to the music and a fantastic arrangement. Viewed in Ireland. Thoroughly loved it.
Thank you for this timely reminder and encouragement :) "Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will be joyful in God my Savior. The Sovereign Lord is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to tread on the heights." Habakkuk 3:17-19
You have no idea how much you all have lifted my spirits, bolstered my courage, and given me joy with your song. I have been singing along daily every day since March '20 as part of my prayer practice during my Covid isolation. It brings tears to my eyes every time, tears of renewal of hope, healing, and joy. Bless you, all!!
This expresses how I feel about life after being saved by Jesus Christ.
I'm a Haitian Catholic Roman Priest. I like so much this religious song. I learned it when I visited Lexington, Virginia in July 2011.
I sing it in church choir it is a hard peace but I love it .
Sung at my daughter’s memorial service….no words to express…..
There is absolutely Nothing like singing in a chorus or choir. It's not just the melding of the music. It's the melding of the human spirit. CHORUS/CHOIRS FOREVER!!!!!!!!

Beautiful comment!
I have chosen this to be part of my funeral as it sums up mu life, more than 75 years of singing in some choir.
This virtual choir delivers such a beautiful cover of this classic hymn. Bless you all
This song isn’t about the human spirit, which brought about 262 million deaths through democide alone in the 20 century. This song is about King Jesus. The melding of the human spirit is only beautiful in so far as its purpose is to bring glory to Him.
Von ganzem Herzen vielen Dank!!!
Our Lord is our only hope in this sin cursed earth. Come Lord Jesus and renew faith in you.
My tears flow freely. My fears rush out of my eyes, my voice raised high and clear even though I am alone. I can't keep from singing, no I can't. I so miss my choir, miss the elastics in my music folder snapping at the most inopportune time, miss kicking my water bottle under a pew. God, I need to sing! Thank you!
What SHE said!....My heart and soul are crying out, and you just wrote the lyrics for that.

I am our church's choir director and I so miss the music, the relationships, the inspiration. I'm so glad for this beautivul post.
this song has carried me through many trials and troubles, and at 85 I have had my share of them, but always this song has lifted me to better heights and I am able to face life with hope and have a reason to go in singing, awesome words of hope in our creator
Bravo!
Right behind you, th-cam.com/video/2p3KPnCSwoQ/w-d-xo.html
Ditto, Sister. Blessed be.
God gives us the strength to face anything! He is all we have but He is all we need! May God bring you Joy every day❤️✝️

Keep on singing and praising God , thank you for sharing ✝️👍🌹🌟⭐️
Where are there 80 people in the universe that do not like this! Really!
No taste.
And now there are 93 - I don’t get it! How could anyone not adore this?
WOOOOOOW

We sang this song at my mom's funeral in October. This is such a joyous version. Thank you!
Watching this the Holy Spirit helps me to see that on our own we may have a gift but how much more beautiful when all those gifts are put together to create a beautiful harmony for God's glory!
No music is completely secular. Music is a gift of spirit.
This video includes people of all races, that's why it is so beautiful
And this is how you make differences go away the right way.

Through healing tears, on this, the day of my father's passing, I thank you all.
Praise Jesus for His comfort!
Peace to you.
So sorry for your loss 😢❤️
May the Lord comfort you and bless you with peace, in Jesus' name.
So sorry to hear of your loss.
Sing out like a bird! Be free as God intended. "Let my people go!" God is saying celebrate and sing praises. You made it through 2020. You will overcome evil, all of it.
Jane here. Aww that blessed my soul! Thank you. It was lovely.
Thank you so much. This song sustains me. Blesses and holds me. Let’s keep singing.
Something good this way comes from NYC
2:51 thats my mom one up from bottom left love her great job!
You must be very proud of her! This is beyond beautiful
So glad you pointed her out to us! It's a tribute from a terrific kid proud of his terrific mom.

Beautiful choice, beautifully sung.
Now, if only this was possible in real-time.
You are so right! This is what's getting me through this weird time.
Now I’m feeling it: the peace and unity of the whole of creation. Bless you all singers and players.

Thank you so much. Your musical presence means a lot!
Wow! Just, wow!
"Since LOVE is Lord of Heaven and Earth, how can I keep from singing..."?
"since love prevails in heaven and earth" (: I love this song.
Yes those are the lyrics. I think they took the Christian elements front the song.
brought tears

and no cattle in the stalls,
yet I will rejoice in the Lord,
I will be joyful in God my Savior.
The Sovereign Lord is my strength;
he makes my feet like the feet of a deer,
he enables me to tread on the heights."
Habakkuk 3:17-19

@@foinkle I just want to hug every single person in this video. But even more than that, I WANT TO SING WITH THEM!
@@VikingDiariesTV yes, me too!
Agree! I could listen again and again!
@@suzannerhoades877 I've lost count of how many times I've listened ... nearly have the alto part completely sorted at this point!
Loving the two cells for the cellos...one for the player, one for the instrument.
You have no idea how much you all have lifted my spirits, bolstered my courage, and given me joy with your song. I have been singing along daily every day since March '20 as part of my prayer practice during my Covid isolation. It brings tears to my eyes every time, tears of renewal of hope, healing, and joy. Bless you, all!!
Love this... Thank-you!
