    LYRICS:
    In articulo mortis
    Caelitus mihi vires
    Nearer, my God, to Thee,
    Nearer to Thee!
    E’en though it be a cross
    That raiseth me.
    There let the way appear,
    (In articulo mortis caelitus mihi vires.)
    Steps unto heav’n;
    (Deo adjuvante non timendum in perpetuum.)
    All that Thou sendest me,
    (Dirige nos Domine ad augusta per angusta.)
    In mercy giv’n;
    (Sic itur ad astra excelsior, excelsior, excelsior, excelsior, excelsior.)
    Still all my song shall be
    Nearer, my God, to Thee,
    Nearer, my God, to Thee,
    (Dirige nos Domine ad augusta per angusta.)
    Nearer to Thee!
    (Sic itur ad astra excelsior!)
    Though like the wanderer,
    (In articulo mortis caelitus mihi vires.)
    The sun gone down,
    (Deo adjuvante non timendum in perpetuum.)
    Darkness be over me,
    (Dirige nos Domine ad augusta per angusta.)
    My rest a stone;
    (Sic itur ad astra excelsior, excelsior, excelsior, excelsior, excelsior.)
    Angels to beckon me
    Nearer, my God, to Thee,
    Nearer, my God, to Thee,
    (Dirige nos Domine ad augusta per angusta.)
    Nearer to Thee!
    (Sic itur ad astra excelsior!)
    Or if, on joyful wing
    (In articulo mortis caelitus mihi vires.)
    Cleaving the sky,
    (Deo adjuvante non timendum in perpetuum.)
    Sun, moon, and stars forgot,
    (Dirige nos Domine ad augusta per angusta.)
    Upward I fly!
    (Sic itur ad astra excelsior. Dirige nos Domine ad augusta per angusta. Sic itur ad astra excelsior!)
    LATIN TRANSLATION
    In articulo mortis [At the moment of death]
    Caelitus mihi vires [My strength is from heaven]
    Deo adjuvante non timendum [God helps us; nothing should be feared]
    In perpetuum [Forever]
    Dirige nos Domine [Direct us, O Lord]
    Ad augusta per angusta [To high places by narrow roads]
    Sic itur ad astra [Such is the path to the stars]
    Excelsior [Ever upward]

      "belt at soprano range" isn't a valid statement. While the difficulty you're speaking of, it isn't anywhere near a soprano range. The note at 2:52 is closer but in choral music as a genre, it's typical tenor stuff.

      @@renarich4942 you say that as if you know that God wouldn't accept their worship. Cain was told not to worship how he did. However, you can't make the claim that they aren't honoring God with whatever music they choose to use. To say that beats are "worldly" is in my opinion something you can not and would never be able to support as being biblical. I would encourage you to step off your highhorse and consider that God is a lot larger than you or what you consider "yours". He is worshipped by all and the worship of him isn't dictated by what you think (thank you God).

Music that appeals to the spirit is different-it connects the soul to heavenly things not earthly. Bear in mind It was a general statement. In the same way u wouldn't act a certain way in a courtroom u can't act a certain way in worship IE. Twerking. Ps. I was just responding to the op I don't even remember the song that was playing.

      Interesting! Christianity is the act of following Christ's teachings. We believe he was the Son of God and that he died and rose again for us. Christianity offers forgiveness for all, although we have rebelled against God, so that we can be in a relationship with him.
      Jesus taught to love all, be pacifistic (a lot like you) and to glorify God in all that we do.

He's a former member and former director, and during his time, took the group to the level that we all love and appreciate today. He's a extremely talented visionary, who deserves to be recognized for not only for this arrangement and his vocals, but for his transformative dedication and vision. I'm so happy to see him in a video so we can all see man behind the song and one of the key men behind this amazing group. Thank you James!

    Just wanna share an experience that I would never forget when I was still a university student. I would go to the church every Sunday for a morning mass and after the priest's sermon it was time for a hymn and everybody would stand up. And right when the choir started singing, I heard an unfamiliar harp music that I was practically looking back and front to find its source and it's indescribable, so out of the world sound of harp playing as if thete was a choir of invisible angels singing along. My hair was all standing as I listened to it intently. I tried searching for a similar harp sound in youtube afterwards and a few weeks in but nothing ever sounded like it. I'd like to believe that they came down from heaven just to say hi :)

    I grew up in a Baptists church so this song was played a lot. I was one of those people that only went to church because that's what a good southern girl does, but I never really believed in the whole God thing, but now that I've gotten older and have experienced life without church and God; I've realized that I needed him in my life. This was the song that was on the radio when I did finally giving my life to God. This song saved my life and I thank God everyday for it.

      With some of the comments that I read here, this song has positively affected a lot of people. Psalm 96: 2 " Sing to the LORD, praise HIS name. Proclaim HIS salvation, day after day". Sometimes when someone gives their life to GOD, the devil tries to throw negatives situations toward them to discourage them. Remember, there is an Angel by your side and GOD will never leave, nor forsake you. Stand proud and strong as you walk with the LORD.

Couldn’t remember where I’d heard it and it slammed me the next morning. Needless to say my house got a 6am blasting of this from my bathroom as I listened to it in the shower. lol ❤ absolutely adore this piece and arrangement.

      @Nebula Jesus knows what He does. If He left you without the answer it means there is a reason for that. The most usually reason is that there is missing our decision of forgiveness for those who have hurt us.
      It's worth to say: "In the name of Jesus I'm forgiving every person who has hurt me. Amen." 😊
      Without this decision the things won't change - you will not listen the Jesus... Lack of forgiveness to others is really powerful barrier separating us from God. We are during the Lent time. It's good time to forgive others and convert ourselves. 😊
