This is one on my favourite hymns, My late father who served in the British Army was carried out of our church to this hymn on the day of his funeral to be taken to his final resting place..
God Bless Dad Miss You
Sir god bless your dad for serving my dad was in the United states Navy he passed away in 1997 may they both rest in peace god bless
This is the music that should be played in our places of religious worship
So thankful my grandfather, a former Lutheran pastor, taught me so many great hymns! I will have them in my heart forever! Truly beautiful and deep lyrics compared to our churches nowadays!
I did not grow up a Lutheran, but a different protestant evangelical church. Later in life I came to just love the Evangelical Lutheran Church. I was a guest instrumentalist in many over the years across America. These indeed are great examples of some of the great Hymns of the Christian church, and have lyrics that both preach the gospel, and doctrine, but raise us up in times we need encourgement.
Nice to see so many parishioners! Years ago, most Churches were this full when the Sabbath Day were more fully observed, that's why Church buildings were built this large.
I grew up at CRPC. Samuel is an amazing organist. The gospel went from this place to all nations on earth. God bless the legacy of D. James Kennedy.
This has to be the most moving and inspirational version of this marvelous hymn I have ever heard! This instrument and rendition in the supremely capable hands of Sam Metzger is absolutely awesome.
Thank you for sharing these hymns of Praise with the You Tube world.
Christian music is the soul of the church undoubtedly .
If I was in that congregation during this rendition, I'm sure they'd have to escort me out of there because I'm sure I would not be still after that! My gosh; what a gift God has passed to man!
A beautiful hymn that is not sung enough.
It is SO nice to see EVERYONE with a hymnal in their hands, singing.
True, but remember that these services were televised so the congregants knew they had to look their best.
I miss Dr Kennedy and the beautiful uplifting music and messages every Sunday morning... Beautiful Organ... Worship service the way it should be....
As an Episcopalian I love Presbyterian churches are very beautiful
Glorious!
We need these hymns in our temples, not the world music that we listen at now.
Luis Enrique you're absolutely correct
I'm almost 60 years old , I've seen quite a bit , As a Full Gospel Pentecostal , I loved the old Golden Standards . They are what we need to hearing church today !
Music is not worship in and of itself, but rather just a tool for worship. The instrumentation are just tools. Music styles are also tools - tools to convey emotion. Often times we associate musical styles with experiences, but that does not mean those styles are intrinsically good or bad. Many of the hymns are old bar tunes with different words, yet we associate that music with worship. Please be careful not to associate modern Christian music with something of the world. You can use a hammer to build a house, or tear one down. Let us use all our tools for worship.
Daveinet , thank you for an interesting appraisal of hymn singing.
Yes, before I point the finger at a fault in a hymn I should remember that Jesus sees the heart , and someone can be drawn to Him in different ways.
I do like the marching hymns. Everything s bold , and good and bad is seen as black and white.
Lord Jesus ,give us boldness to speak out against abortion. You said, Lord Jesus ‘You shall not kill ‘.
Every child is precious in your eyes. What we hear in whispers, let us shout from the rooftops. Amen ? Maranatha, come Lord Jesus save us from our sins. Save the babies, help the ladies and motivate the lazies to act .
.To God be the Glory I love the song &I'm inpired and Blessed ijn amen ELD AKI NGUN GABRIEL
Proud to be an anglican. I must hear an organ playing every sunday. Your name be praised o Lord.🙏
Are you Anglican as in the Church of England? I had English friends, now both deceased, and we would talk of similarities and differences in our faiths. I was raised in Southern Baptist churches. One big difference is that the Anglican Church furnishes the ministers to the churches, where in the Southern Baptist Association, each minister is hired by that church. He is their employee and they alone have the power to hire or fire him. So we had some long discussions over faith in God and the role of the church in that faith.
When i was Little Boy My dad was in the United states Navy military band . and they played this at President John F Kennedy's Funeral . My Daddy was an Honor guard for the USN
This is one of my favorite christian song.We used to sing this song during sabbath srrvices when I was still a member of the worlwide church of God.The church founded by the late Herbert Armstrong.
Glory to almighty GOD.

One can only wonder what Arthur Sullivan, a man who was born and brought up in Lambeth, a poor, working class suburb of South London, would say if he could hear his possibly most famous hymn tune sung so beautifully and with such verve and commitment - and accompanied so magnificently by a truly fabulous organ and organist. He would shake his head in disbelief!! Arthur Seymour Sullivan: 1842 - 1900.
What an organist!
I was brought up in an AME Zion Methodist church, and we sang most of the hymns that I a. hearing on this channel. It brings back memories. We need more of this music in some of the churches today.
Awake thou that ye sleepest, and arise from the dead, and the the Christ shall give thee light. Ephesians 5:14. Now is the time to awake and stand for your Faith and take the Glorious Name of Christ to the nations than ever before.
Thanks for singing an Anglican hymn so well. God bless you all.
Love the way Samuel keeps them up to tempo. It's a march, after all.
This used to be my father's Favourite hymn so beautiful
This is one of my all time favorites. Thank you for sharing it on TH-cam.
Convinced!! I love anything that Samuel Metzger plays. This organist is on my favorite list.
I got to admit this church has a huge spire
Amen love to hear the congregation sing. Amazing 👏
Absolutely thrilling!
Wonderful harmonious sweet voices very influencing
We shall overcome! I look up through gates of heaven every time I hear this, marching in their rank of millions with tears of joy!!😀 ML 11/15/20
So good to hear this old hymn. I love it dearly. The Marxists who have taken
over most of the mainline Protestant denominations have mostly banned
it. It's why I don't go to church anymore. Instead, I just watch TH-cam
videos.
You are so correct. I just left the PCUSA and became a Roman Catholic. What a breath of Fresh air to hear the word of God again!
Metzger is my kind of talented man. Most inspiring.
Mr.Matzger orgaist is very awesome ~
I loved the modulation and the descant sung!
AMAZING!
As my father, a minister of 35 years, said, "If that doesn't light your fire, your wood is WET!"
+KR McKay Amen and Amen! My full agreement.
awesome....could I borrow that?.....
Good philosophical talk
True, if that doesn't light fire, your wood is wet....
Treasures for us and for the children of KINGDOM of God
Best arrangement of this hymn I have heard in a long time. Thank you for posting!
As you sing ,we people in Ramnad Madurai do spiritedly in our churches in south India wonderful song
nice pipe organ, nice choir, nice congragation all singing and praise the Lord. thank you and welldone. Peace be with you.
To God be the glory
somgs like this lift up my spirit. Our church does not own an organ or piano all electronic an mostly newer song. Though sometimes a classic is played.
I really miss this Pastor James Kennedy, Very sorry to hear his loss. May God Bless his Family and the Church he build to Great Father God in Heaven.
+pablo curley Halleluiah』Amen
Waiting to see Dr. Kennedy again when I get to Heaven............
@Kr Mcay I loved that comment your father made about if that doesn't light your fire your wood must be wet.
Its so beautiful . Praise our Lord Jesus Christ and let His Kingdom come
What beauty. Angelic voices.
I'm a devout Catholic, and I have to admit, I'm kinda jealous of this Presbyterian church. It's got an enormous organ! God bless you all!
Hi, you don't have to be jealous; just come over here and join us. Not because of the musical organ, but to be part of the Body of Christ, for His pure and holy doctrine. That's enough!
Your prayers have been answered - it's a RC Cathedral now!!!
There are bigger don’t worry.
@@wurlitzer895
Actually, it was the late Robert Schuller's Crystal Cathedral that went bankrupt and was bought by the RC church.
This church (Coral Ridge) is still very much Presbyterian.
I'm a Devout Catholic too Its not the Organ what makes the Church its the People with all due respect
popular hymn in my school days at Nairobi School formerly called Prince of Wales School
i love to hear the song..onward christian soldiers.. i am a christian in the philippines..
Congregação e coral cantando em perfeita hsrmonia com a orquestra. Glória a DEUS.
That beautiful organ and the lovely soprano’s.
Wow, Onward Christian Soldiers in church. That's a rarity nowadays. Many think it's too militaristic. I love it, and it is a hymn I grew up with. As a church organist and music director, I must say this arrangement is spectacular! From the percussion stops to the large enchamade golden trumpets that knock you backwards! I'll look into ordering the music through my music store where I work.
There is no such thing as a Protestant church. The only true Church is the Catholic Church.
@@MarkWilliams-gy9bi That is a matter of opinion, not fact and somewhat bigotted view
We in the UK generally LOVE this hymn whether Anglican / Methodist / Baptist / and particularly Salvation Army -
It has nothing to do with the military.
Great song
It's been a long time since I've heard this hymn in our Southern Baptist church.
We are an Independent Baptist church and we sing it along with "The Fight is On".
Warms my heart!!!
I love the pipe organ in this video.
Amazing..love from papua
MAny world religions, but NOBODY comes close to Christian music. These compositions must come from God via the composers.
such an amazing organist and awesome hymn arrangements!
Bravo
I love this type of song.The Bible says we are more than conquerors.
All music reverent this is a master piece. Well done
Charm and you know how much I love you too
I used to watch Dr. Kennedy's show, he was certainly very good. As I watched him I'd look @ that magnificent organ behind him & wish I had more opportunity to hear it played. Naturally, the emphasis was always on HIS preaching. I am sure they played it often for many hymns in his actual services.
I guess this is an example of how Protestantism is the cult of the preacher. Listening to someone talk about God is more important then actually worshipping him w/ songs & prayers.
If you feel this way, you wouldn't feel very comfortable in the Early Church either where the proclamation of the world was the centrepiece of worship and evangelism. In Protestantism, the purity of ancient worship has been (to varying degrees) restored with the renewed emphasis on the word. Even Protestant hymnody is squarely based on the scriptures, which is why they are so powerful.
jlandles B/4 you talk about the Early Church Fathers, you'd do well to...like...actually read them. No. You could not possibly be more wrong. The center of Early Christian worship was the sacrifice of the Eucharist. Actually read the Fathers. As Newman said, "Do be deep into history is to cease to be Protestant." That is why the leaders of the state churches in Europe (Protestants of course) all went to Liberalism. If you can't find any real historical basis for your nations official religion, it will naturally be a scandal to many & many did indeed loose their faith, even as they made their living hypocritically as clergy.
Great
GLORY TO ALMIGHTY GOD.

I agree. There have been so many times people forget the words and feel silly. I know I do. PRAISE GOD for some traditions.. AMEN...
The Knights Templar Hymn! What a wonderful version of it too!
A greatly popular hymn at Anglican Mombasa Memorial Cathedral. It made it to the recessional hymn at Matildah and I's wedding on Wednesday 29th December 2010.
Amazing song one my favourites
This organist is one of the best i've ever heard, and i've heard many
praise the Lord Jesus Christ
Praise the Lord 🙏❤️
Amazing! Nilza Coine - from Brasil.
Magnífico!!! GLÓRIA À DEUS!
I love leading hymns on the organ in this bombastic, dramatic style, but I've never done something quite this extreme. I sometimes play this vid for my music director at the church to remind her that it could be worse!
Just do it! :)
Our Arch children's Presbyterian Sunday School teacher for years had us singing this every Sunday!!!~ of course, many in the town(such as myself) were descendants of Soldiers who fought in The American Revolution.
American needs to contemplate the meaning of the words of this hymn "with Cross of Jesus going on before "since America has lost sight of the fact that it He who bore His cross for us as many as are saved.
Beautifully done.
Fantastic and inspiring arrangement of this great hymn
Where in the world is thus church? I wish I was in the choir too and the organ is so powerful. Can you imagine what it will be like when we all get to Heaven? Oh my word!!! It will be so awesome!!!! I want to be made ready by the hands of my Jesus.
Too heaven only and only allow god my Jesus christ too go for real Christian NO ONE ELSE
Madam. You should become Catholic. There is no salvation outside the Catholic Church. Sincerely...
It's in Florida USA.
My Favourite one! Also I'm playing this piece at my church as service opening.
Lindo hino!!! Aleluia!
HALELLUJA...
Other than the Crystal Cathedral, this church had some of the most awesome music. Sam's playing and arrangements made it even more special. And still glad to see little Diane Bish playing at so many different churches. I would have loved to attend a service.
+Mi Picasso Halleluiah Amen
IMO, Samuel is the best organist they ever had there, bar none.
Did you all know Diana Bish Built and dedicated the pipe organ to the crystal cathedral yrs ago when they opened this congregation
beautiful church
I attended local public school through 4th grade. When I was in second grade I came home singing this song. My mom wondered where I heard and replied at school. She told me sometimes it was thought of anti-Catholic, which in the mid-1940's it may have been. She also counseled me to sing it at will. My parents were intellectual Catholics and supported ecumenism before it was proclaimed by Vatican II.
Its a well known hymn. Well known in the Christian world. I have not heard that it was regarded as anti catholic. As a protestant growing up in the Dutch Reform church and later in the Church of England it remains a favorite.
mary jane Prouty Dear Mary Jane, thank you for the information. As a protestant who has a deep admiration for the Catholic church I am glad to hear it. To me it's a lovely hymn.
+Gerhardus Van Rooyen Amen
+abe tadashi Amen
+mary jane Prouty I sang it at my Episcopal Country day school, most kids there were Episcopal and Catholic . This was early 60's. Our School Vicar came and called emergency Chapel to tell us the President had been shot in Dallas Tx. I think I was the only kid in the school that went to a Full Gospel Church, but I loved the music as a kid, and as a adult I joined the Episcopal Church ( most my friends growing up, were Catholic)
The Masonic group" the Commandery " sing this as their march song, but again its not in any way, done to be anti catholic. I still love the song
1 Onward, Christian soldiers,
marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus
going on before!
Christ, the royal Master,
leads against the foe;
Forward into battle,
see his banner go!
Refrain:
Onward, Christian soldiers,
marching as to war,
With the cross of Jesus
going on before!
2 At the sign of triumph
Satan's host doth flee;
On, then, Christian soldiers,
on to victory!
Hell's foundations quiver
at the shout of praise;
Brothers, lift your voices,
loud your anthems raise!
[Refrain]
3 Like a mighty army
moves the church of God;
Brothers, we are treading
where the saints have trod;
We are not divided;
all one body we,
One in hope and doctrine,
one in charity.
[Refrain]
4 Onward, then, ye people,
join our happy throng,
Blend with ours your voices
in the triumph song;
Glory, laud, and honor,
unto Christ the King;
This thro' countless ages
men and angels sing.
[Refrain]
A bit over the top, don't you think? I kept waiting for the Blue Angels flying down the nave. What a sight that would be!
lmao. I can see it from ur point of view. but to be honest, it was really better compared to the rest on the internet iv'e seen.
I believe. In god
We use to sing this at Holy Cross Lutheran Church, Detroit, when we were kids. Not played by the LCMS any more sorry to say!
Amen!! thanks be to God hallelujah!
amazing. tears to the eyes
Glory to Our Father, Almighty
Magnificent!
ONWARD, CHRISTIAN SOLDIERS
(Sabine Baring-Gould/Arthur Seymour Sullivan) Eton College Press, PRS
is one of those pieces that has me thinking of how to arrange it in a style compatible with standard military drums. Originally released for a Whitmonday procession, it became one of the selections in Barnby's Hymnary and has been reprinted in numerous hymnals since.
amaze with this church
I like the organ
This was played by the US Navy band as they brought President Kennedy into Arlington Cemetery. You could hear their playing a mile away.
My Dad was in the US Navy band Back then . he served in the Navy
But Christians have a message that should be heard....to the ends of the earth!
