Greetings from North Germany (Ostfriesland). This song is in the Ausbund Das 134. Lied p 786 and Unpartheisches Gesangbuch p 370 Lied 350. Melody "Erzürn dich nicht o frommer Christ". God bless you and thanks for the video.
Lebt Friedsam was my father's favorite Ausbund hymn. Andrew A Miller (1918-1992), sometimes called Mart Andy, sang mostly gospel and country during his adult life, and not these slow tunes. But for whatever reason he often mentioned this one. A good recording, thank you. This summer our Martin (1885-1950) and Martha (1895-1957) Miller relatives are having a reunion, so nice to revisit this music.
Some versions sing the fifth line with a part in the middle that goes up quite high. That is how it is sung here in Northern Indiana Amish community. Erv Troyer
This song is by Leonard clock found in an early German Mennonite song book. A parting song, its frequently sung in amish services.in the melody: Be Not Angry, O pious Christian.
I believe this is in the English (and German) version of the Zion’s Harp hymnal, the hymnal used in Apostolic Christian churches. In the Zion’s Harp the first verse reads: Live peacefully! Said Christ, the Lord, Unto His own elected. My brethren dear, O heed His Word As those with God connected. To you I tell as my farewell , In concord ne’er to waver; Though I depart, yet in my heart I’m bound to you forever. I may upload this song on my channel at some point. Thanks for posting! God bless you!
@@irvinbrubacher1531 sure it is the 8th Weiss . I used to have a booklet with the tunes laid out in it but since I left the Stauffer Mennonite church I am not sure what happened to it . I still have my love for listening and singing these old songs
Even though I'm German I didn't understand a single word. But I noticed this is a very English way of pronouncing the German words so maybe that's why I didn't understand. I really like the melody though.

I love it! This is my chance to sing along with the old church songs again!

Gottes Segen den Brüder und Schwestern
Love it! It sounds exactly like we used to sing it in the amish church.

💜There's just Something about this specific song! Everyone always really pitched in for it too!🙂

Not sure if you have the rite one in mind 🤔
Steven Yoder you wouldn't know anyways you were only a little child the last time you heard it
Love these songs
I love to listen to this singing 💓💓💓
Love love listening, great channel!
Brings back a lot of memories
Sounds very much like Gaelic psalm singing in the Hebrides
My favorite I love to sing along.
That sounds very much like my home district. In fact pretty sure I hear my Dad in the congregation.
Great sound quality
Do you have more like this? It is quite awesome.Seldom do I hear Amish singing with the beautiful half slow tunes .
This is very similar to the way the Stauffer Mennonite church sings. This song is found in the Unparteische Gesangbuch, first printed in 1804.
Paul, can you identify the melody number? It sounds so familiar to me, but I can't quite place it.

@@paulstauffer2631 would you have contact to any Stauffer mennonites in like Kentucky or close to that?
@@Tisztak I know a few down in the Elkhorn area. Actually relatives of mine.
Stauffers they are.

🎉
I l I very these songs
Sorry for the pain you and your friends are feeling. May Jehovah bring you peace.
This style of singing is identical to the Stauffer Mennonite way.
Are you sure this was Amish and not Stauffer Mennonite?
I cannot say for sure where it was recorded but I know it is indistinguishable from the way it was sung at church when I was a young Amish boy.
@@nighthawk6350 where did you grow up?
@@nighthawk6350 I would find it interesting to meet Amish that sing like this.
@@paulstaufferlancasterwhere are you from ? I know amish all over the states
I grew up in Lancaster County PA. There they sing ganz langsam. I am presently living near Hillsboro OH@@jonihostetler5161
