Our son Michael was killed two years ago in a suicide car bomb blast in Somalia, He died serving his country. This song was softly played by the Navy band as his casket was placed on the caisson at Arlington National Cemetery. I will never forget it. We love you, Son. Dad.
I am deeply appreciative of your son's service to our country. My heart and prayers are for you, that God may comfort and strengthen you until the joyful day when faith is transformed to sight.
My son Michael was a musician when he played this on the sax it always made me cry, he passed away at 34 and I had them play this at his funeral, my grief was horrible I didn't want to live without him but when I hear this beautiful song I know he is nearer to God than me!! Love you Mike sending you kisses on this Mother's Day, until I see you again!!
My prayers are up for you during your time of bereavement. I will continue to lift you and all of your family up during this sad time in your life. Read all of Psalm 27 and then read Psalm 27 verse 5 again along with Romans 8:28 which thoroughly explains God's comfort in time of Sorrow and troubled time's.
@@bruceedwards2180 I too lost my dad this January, but God will console us and take Care of us. I surrender everything that concerns me to Lord my God. I cling unto Jesus, and recline only unto him to save us till that day when we'll gather at the river.
In 1964, I was at my grandparets home in N.C., when a tornado blew their house away, there were 9 of us in that house. After it had passed and we all got out, my mother said this song was on her mind and in her heart. To this day when I hear it, I think of her and that day in 1964, when 9 people walked out of that wreak of a house with only a few scratches and bruises. We were blessed, God was indeed, near to us.
I remember when my grandma used to pray over us when we were children when tornados were close to where we lived here in Texas but somehow we would sleep so peacefully though the threat was there. God just gives us that peace that no other can give us!
This song was played at sinkage of Titanic . All the musicians who played this to calm the passengers died but did a job that will always remain in history
only in the movie is that true, it's not out of the realm of possibilities that the band played as she sank what was played though is a bit up for interpretation. There was a more popular hymn at the time so it's very likely that was the one that was played.
Soon, soon, very soon He is coming again in the clouds of glory with His angels to take home His faithful children. Let us be ready at any moment our names may be called. Maranatha.
I'm so sorry for your loss... I can't imagine the pain you are in now, but be comforted that she is with The Lord, and in no more pain, and watching over you and your family.
my mom died of end stage dementia, sitting on the sofa somewhat oblivious to the world around her, I'd play this version and she would suddenly come to life. She grew up in the Catholic church and hymns would miracously "awaken" her, may she RIP. I love you mommy
I was once a blasphemer and a persecutor of the Christian faith, but now I confess that Jesus is Lord. Today I was baptised in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, and I chose this song for the service.
God bless you in your walk with Christ. The path that leads to life isn't easy but a place in God's presence and heavenly mansion forever awaits the faithful 😊
My Nana passed away today, after 93 years on this Earth. I helped take care of her for many years, as she helped look after me when I was young. Now she is in the Kingdom of Heaven with her husband and lost loved ones. One of the last things she said to me was “see you soon, Matty”. Yes, Nana, I shall see you soon. Be at peace, I love you forever and always.
Just today I'm in a foreign country alone, confused about the next step as an international student. Someone played so lovely this song in front of a shoping mall it brought back home memories and peace
I am a young widow, my husband just passed away, and I am hearing this song for the first time. I couldn't be in a better place than Nearer to Him, the Almighty God. Thank you
Accept my condolences. May God Almighty comfort you and grant you the grace to go through your grief with His peace. I lost my husband 7 years ago, and it seems like yesterday. Be comforted!!!
Good morning from Ireland Caroline God bless & continue to strengthen & comfort you day by day dear sister🙏I will remember to pray for you. But thanks be to God, which always giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Happy Christmas to you & yours 💝😊
This hymn proclaims and praise Jesus Christ the true and living God, the Savior of the world, 1Corinthians 15:3-4: "For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the Scriptures: "Romans 5:8-9: "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him." John 1:1-4,12-13: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. ... But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God."
Jesus loves you Hamza He really cares for you. I don't mean too be rude but I know in the Islamic world you believe God speaks through dreams. Maybe you could ask God if He is real? Blessing and Peace too you brother :)
My brother, I am happy for you, and for whatever God you may worship. May you forever find love and peace in that God, and may His grace always be with you.
Forever and Ever no other Salvation can be found beside through Him, He Is, He Was and He Will Ever be Lord of Host, The Lamb that saved the world, The Intercessor and the High Priest Forever

My friend, while there is life, there is hope. Please look into fenbendazole. It sounds too good to be true, but I have heard of people who have been cured. God bless you and keep you in His care.
I was the prodigal son. I came home....had a dream years ago..heard ..you ran away but came back to me...I suppose there are many like. Me. God stands ready to recieve us when we get tired of running. Love to all
When you leave this world, please do not be afraid, you will be okay. You have lived a wonderful life and once you go may you rest in peace. Say hello to jesus and god for me.

Strange indeed, Spicy Leprechaun Stuff, dead pool tube, must've drunk the poison of despair and is threatened by yet another DAY. Thank you, Leprechaun, really.
I hope the people must be wise pray to God and he knows our future but when the people forget God and reject God and believe in different God they surprise what's happening but the truth is God is in control and I believe God they allow this to happen because we are far away from God and the people they are depending on the power of man they think everything will be ok because of the knowledge of man they made but the truth is gone because we are human that God created us all everything belongs to him all people we are stranger and pilgrims in this world passing by and nobody can own the territory the nation with out God and the people without God will be destroyed history from ancient time will repeat itself the people must be wise pray to God and search the history of the world but we have hope that he sent his son to this world to save people for God so loved the world that he give his only begotten son that whosoever believe in him shall not perish but have and everlasting life but God is love he give us freedom to choose so it's up to us so try to choose God there's a life everlasting life continue our praying and have faith in him and our relationship with Jesus Christ day by day and we are not perfect but God give us hope to repent our sin and he forgive us so is a loving God waiting for the people to come to him and he is ready to save us thank you very much
Happy birthday, Grandma. She would've been 86 this day but the Lord saw fit to call her home in January this year. I love you, Grandma. Very much. I'll always be your "lil Soldier"
I am going through a lot of mental pain and self hatred right now. I’m not a good person and have made some mistakes. I just wanted to ask for forgiveness and hope and guidance for the future. God bless everyone who reads this and I hope your lives are prosperous and full of love good spirits and health.
No man is good says the Lord, for all man fall short to the Glory of God. But if we repent and believe that Jesus Christ paid for all our sins at the cross and that he’s risen today then you’ll be free from all sin a death. God bless you and keep you and don’t feel bad because God loves you and I love you!❤️🙏🏻
Stay well friend. Keep faith. One of best things you could do in such times would be witnessing people to Christ. You can send people this video about salvation from Lord Jesus Christ here's the link below th-cam.com/video/mIuqVjPvN6k/w-d-xo.html
The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit love you unconditionally and abundantly, dear friend. ❤️ You are in my prayers, and on the Lord Jesus' heart. ❤️ "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son, so that whoever would believe on Him would not perish, but have eternal life." John 3:16
“Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.” John 17:3 "Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting! And let all the people say, “Amen!” Praise the Lord!" Psalm 106:48 "Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, who alone does wondrous things." Psalm 72:18
Bless you And..I pray God open your eyes to see Lord Jesus only way truth and life....as Qur'an states if a Muslim want to know truth they should Christian..
I am a devout Muslim but I can't control my tears listening to this beautiful piece. Idc if you're Christian, Muslim or Jewish, we're all the same in the eyes of God ❤️
But it says it be a cross that raiseth me , JESUS is the only way. His death at the cross, he didn't die for no reason. People will perish forever ♾️ if they reject him.
@@praisemysaviorjesuschrist8015 Muslims have never rejected Jesus pbuh. Jesus pbuh is our Prophet. His name is mentioned more than Muhammad pbuh in the Quran. It can be said that Muslims respect and accept his teaching as much as the Christians. The only difference is we don't see him as "Son of God" as per the original Gospel, which we claimed it was changed by the rulers of the past. If you have the time, do read this book : Misquoting Jesus by Bart Ehrman. A Christian friend of mine recommended this a few years back
tia moree just know things are only gonna get worse my fellow Christ follower. Know that GOD is so good and only he is good. I’m such a sinner I hate it. I just wish JESUS will come back real soon so I can stop sinning. I just want to be with our Heavenly Father.
I know things are gonna get worse and I can only say Stay Safe every time I'm behind the deli counter at Publix seeing people of all ages wearing masks. Some kids without masks that's worrying because people are treating this like it's gonna go away when it's not. My mom's friends was a nurse from a different hospital now has it which means it can happen to anyone. And I would really appreciate it if you wouldn't call me careless or numb when I know how bad it is. Even when people around me say everything is fine when really it's not. I have a sister who has chemo cancer and we have to be careful around her because she's health sensitive. My mother and younger brother have asthma and if they catch this. Well i don't know what to do then.😔
Deuteronomy 31:8 ESV It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.” God is nearer to you than you Imagine. Amazing song though sad but beautiful offering His Mercies ,hope and peace.
This is one of my favorite verses. Isn't it wonderful that indeed, God goes before us, He is with us, He will not leave us or forsake us? Whenever I read this verse, I recall that night in December 2009 when shortly after falling asleep, I had a cerebral aneurysm rupture and had a subarachnoid hemorrhage. I did not have any previous warning signs, including the classic worst headache in the world. My husband, who was not supposed to be home from work yet... was home from work and not yet asleep. He tells me I became sick and that was what alerted him to the fact that I was in trouble. My son, who has emergency response training was not supposed to be home yet as he had an event going on that night yet... he had just come home. They were going to take me to the nearest hospital when suddenly I ordered them from the back of the ambulance to take me to another hospital. That particular hospital "just happened" to be up the street from what was then known as The National Brain Aneurysm Center and the doctor who "just happened" to be on-call that night was one of the founders of that center and is a leading expert on the treatment of ruptured brain aneurysms. Did I mention that at the time no one had any idea of what had happened to me? I certainly couldn't communicate, or so I have been told and the only time I spoke without being spoken to was when I told them which hospital to take me to. It is interesting to note that shortly before I got out of the hospital, my neurosurgeon walked into the room one day with a large group of people and told them that they were looking at a miracle. Hmm... apparently people who have brain aneurysms after they fall asleep generally never wake up again. It does not matter to me what someone else thinks or says. Like Paul I can say with confidence, "... nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day." 2 Timothy 1:12
"For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by His grace, as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God put forward as a propitiation, by his blood, to be received by faith. This was to show God's righteousness , because in His divine forbearance he had passed over former sins. It was to show his righteousness at the present time, so that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus." -Romans 3:23-26
I'm so sorry Brandon, forgive me brother I should've never left you in that desert it should have been me it still stings man, I miss you I can't stop reliving it, I'll see you soon brother, save a spot for me - lost in Afghanistan
you and Brandon are heroes and there are a lot of people who are IMMENSELY grateful for everything you have sacrificed. God bless you from the bottom of my heart.
This song is so beautiful....I could not hold back my tears......I lost one of my best friends a few days ago in a fatal car accident......may his soul rest in peace...
Thank you lord for all the blessings. I testify with all of my heart and mind that jesus christ is indeed the son of god, and that he has lived, died and resurrected so we may be able to return to God, despite our imperfections. Thank you lord!
Life without God isn't worth living. I've tried, so hard, to live as an atheist, but haven't found that fulfillment of the soul, that higher contentment that only God can bestow in grace. I've tried all philosophies, all atheistic systems of the intellect, but now I'm back to praying, back to praising. I don't know how long it will last before the stubborn, conceited intellect rebels again, but I've found happiness only in the resurrected Lord.
Hi there. Please contact me at this number...+61 458 726 891 I am just a plain and simple human being who would like to help you to know the Lord more. You have taken a step and the Lord will help you take more steps towards Him. God loves us. Read John 3 till to 16. I pray that the Lord will shine His Glory over you in moments like these. Esther.
StalinJ Correya Ephesians 6:16 - In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. I believe that true philosophy and true science can have no conflict with god. However to live by faith, "in the sure hope of things *not seen*" (Hebrews 11:11) is to set aside the challenges that I can't overcome with my own intellect and to simply trust and believe God's word. The intellectual in me calls it wilful ignorance, but aren't we told to be fools for Christ? (1Corinthians 4:10) We can't be 'childish' in the propaganda we take notice of but we can, and should, be 'childlike' in what we choose to *believe* (Matthew 18:3) Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with great joy, to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen. (Jude 1:24) Keep hold of Jesus!
StalinJ Correya I guess we know that you would be taking the blue pill in the matrix. I personally would rather live a life of self honesty with my eyes uncovered than a life where i buried my eyes in the sand and hid. If there is any god worth worshiping, first he would not ask that we do so, and second, he would hope that we become all that we would become, and that includes not believing in a made up fairy tale.
***** Science and religion/fath are literally opposing arguments. Science is the absence of faith, it is based on empirical observation and weight of evidence. There is no evidence for any god. Moreover let me ask, why is it that you follow the christian god? if you were born in the middle east it would be allah, if you were born a few thousand years ago and lived in scandanavia it might be thor, or if you were born in greece around that time it might be zeus and apollo. Nevertheless, belief in god or no god, this song is still beautiful
I just want you all too know that Jesus is a good God and He's so in love with you. My heart goes out too anyone struggling I just want you know that Jesus loves you and died for you. When you cry He cries. It says in the Bible God is slow to anger abounding in love. Jesus made a way too be with the Father. He wants you too be with Him forever God bless you all :')
100%…Im born and raised Roman Catholic and have heard this hymn many times. But it really has a different feel now since I’ve watched Midnight Mass. Won’t lie, I wept.
Today's the 110th anniversary of that tragic night. Event that still touches people's hearts even after all those years. Let all the souls lost on the board of the Titanic Rest In Eternal Peace.
A very moving hymn. It is believed that prior to the Titanic sank, the band on board played this hymn until it went down to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. It is a very tragic and sad event. May all those who died on board the Titanic rest in peace!
+Sui Ting Tse This world is another Titanic going down. Will we learn from the sunk Titanic and seek refuge in Christ before it's too late? Let us strive to appropriate the Salvation afforded us at so great a price.
+Ellie Crabtree amen! there is only one life boat that can save us - Jesus. Abide in Him. Turn from the false deceptive promises of sin and trust only in the faithful promises of God fulfilled in Jesus Christ. Jesus is the only lifeboat.
MYOB Crabtree hey I was just having a conversation with my daddy about that.. I still was in such thoughts n so I found this song here.. nearer my god to thee
I’m listening to Nearer my God to theee, he is near to us in our times of grief, which I’m in as I lost my youngest son to a massive heart attack, I lost my wife of 31 years on 3/6/2010, daughter on 7/17/2004, mother in law on 9/5/2004, father on 10/20/2002, mother on 6/12/1997. It’s a comfort for those of us who lean on Jesus who is always there when we call on his name.
Isaiah 43:2 KJV-- When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. 27"My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: 28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. 29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. 30 I and my Father are one."
"Blessed be the God of all comfort and the Father of mercies, who comforts us in all our afflictions . . ." "Weeping endures for a night, but joy comes in the morning." 🌹
What beauty I'm sure she was. 96!! Wow long & wonderful life!! God bless her. God bless you & may God comfort you & your family during this time of her passing. 🙏✝️
My childhood dog was a fat fluffy golden retriever named Winston. I couldn't imagine that one day he would be gone. He was my best friend, always being there for me. RIP Winston 2004-2015. Missing your fuzzy chubby body.
Soon Jesus will come and put an end to our suffering in the book of Revelation 21:3,4 says that Jesus will wipe away all our tears there will be no more pain no more death and those who has believe in him will be resurrected to be reunited with their loves one, hold on to his promises.......
He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” Revelation 21:4
My grandfather passed away the same day as his birthday this last Jan. 31, 2021. He's a Knight Of Columbus , and when I heard this song while doing necrological service, I didn't know that I was crying. I love you grandpa! Thank you for everything! Please guide me together with Jesus!
Hey sorry to hear that. Please if you believe in Christ pray to Him for help, guidance, and salvation. Repent form sin, pursue the Lord. God bless you friend ❤️🌻✨
This hymn mentions the cross where Jesus took our place and paid our sins debt"Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." (Philippians 2:5-11)
This was one of my grandma's favorite hymns. She recently passed from COVID. When I hear this song now, it brings me joy to think about her and I pray she is nearer our creator.
tigersfan14 Amen! She’s now reunited with our creator. God have mercy on us, we don’t deserve anything but you still love us. My grandma also passed away three months ago but I know she’s more alive now than ever. Your grandma is waiting for you!!🙏

For those of us who truly are Biblically "born again" "believeth" followers of *"our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ"* - what Majesty, Awe, Reverence, Thanksgiving, and Worship by this 'olde hymn' unto *"the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy"* ~ *"the Lord God Almighty"* . For those who deny *"the LORD God"* - there is hope - for "it is witten" in *2 Peter, Chapter 3* [AV]~[KJV] *:* *The Lord is not slack concerning his promise,* as some men count slackness; *but is longsuffering to us-ward,* *not willing that any should perish,* *but that all should come to repentance.* ~~~> *1 Timothy 2:1-6* [AV] .
For those of us who are truly "born again" believers and followers of "our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ" IS Good, BUT, what about those who have not heard the "Good News" yet?
@@charleshurt6032 - You have chosen to publickly question *"the words of truth"* that are written only in the *66 Books* of *"the word of God"* . I personally "colntinueth" to be very-very thankful unto *"the only wise God"* ( *1 Timothy 1:17* ~ *Jude **1:25* ~AV) for "the words of truth" written some 3,000 years ago in *Proverbs 26:4* [AV] .
Dear Brother Nick, I am sorry you assumed I was questioning the words of God, for I do accept His Word wholeheartedly. I accept His Son, Jesus as my saviour. I am grateful for His example and His wonderful atonement. When I asked "what about those who have not heard the "Good News" yet?", I wanted to remind folks that God loves all His children, (saints, sinners, and strangers) and wants us to reach out with God's word to them, in order to give them a choice to accept the glorious Gospel. I believe a "Saint" is any person who believes in Jesus Christ and strives to follow Him. Thank you for calling the misunderstanding to my attention. ch
David Willcox Yes, save us from ourselves. That intellect that says, I can produce AI and it'll be right, mate, that that says we'll produce such and such weapons and missiles and everything will be A, OK, that in our intellect that says we can choose, the features we want in our babies, and cut out the rest. What could possibly go wrong? Lots, that's what, and that's the problem. So, Heavenly Father, save us from ourselves.
I am an atheist, but I grew up in the Catholic Church. I had almost forgotten how alluringly captivating, and how seductive that church can be. Listening to this beautiful melody made me realize how much I miss that old church of my childhood , it made me remember the joy of Mass the gathering to sing and praise God was always so soul cleansing. I Miss her and her Son so much including her obedience, her purity, her mildness, her good council and docility, her charity, and all her other virtues, I miss praying, I miss worshiping. I miss God in my life and heart.
You just prayed the purest prayer there is, humble, heartfelt, and loving. God is love. The powerful Church is never the thing. The powerful love it reminds is in your heart, is the thing.
We sang this song at my dear wife's funeral some time ago, it still brings emotions to the surface when listening to it being sung! She's in a much better place, that's a comfort, I love the song and it's message!
For Daphne Khor My childhood friend and highschool love whom I lost to leukeamia..30 years on..1/9/92..nearer our God to you..may you rest in God peace and yet we see each other again one day
Our son Michael was killed two years ago in a suicide car bomb blast in Somalia, He died serving his country. This song was softly played by the Navy band as his casket was placed on the caisson at Arlington National Cemetery. I will never forget it. We love you, Son. Dad.

Greater love hath no man…

I am deeply appreciative of your son's service to our country. My heart and prayers are for you, that God may comfort and strengthen you until the joyful day when faith is transformed to sight.
"Gentlemen, it has been a privilege playing with you tonight."
:'(
that scene made me bawl my eyes out. I feel kind of guilty saying that.
What?
"Planet Earth, we are in your eternal debt for four billion years of life - four billion years that the Giant Meteor shall end this Thursday."
Actually the band played ragtime on that terrible night but that wouldnt fit in with the silly Hollywood version.
My son Michael was a musician when he played this on the sax it always made me cry, he passed away at 34 and I had them play this at his funeral, my grief was horrible I didn't want to live without him but when I hear this beautiful song I know he is nearer to God than me!! Love you Mike sending you kisses on this Mother's Day, until I see you again!!
I am so sorry for your loss but you know that one day you will see your son in heaven wear are real home is
God will forever console you and grant you his peace and divine presence here and beyond.
My prayers are up for you during your time of bereavement. I will continue to lift you and all of your family up during this sad time in your life.
Read all of Psalm 27 and then read Psalm 27 verse 5 again along with Romans 8:28 which thoroughly explains God's comfort in time of Sorrow and troubled time's.

my mom died of end stage dementia, sitting on the sofa somewhat oblivious to the world around her, I'd play this version and she would suddenly come to life. She grew up in the Catholic church and hymns would miracously "awaken" her, may she RIP. I love you mommy
So sorry for your loss, I have also lost someone. But remember that God only take the best

My Nana passed away today, after 93 years on this Earth. I helped take care of her for many years, as she helped look after me when I was young. Now she is in the Kingdom of Heaven with her husband and lost loved ones. One of the last things she said to me was “see you soon, Matty”. Yes, Nana, I shall see you soon. Be at peace, I love you forever and always.
I lost my grandma too 😢😢 I miss her so much she was a pure light on earth
I lost mine at 92 in March 2020 , she was born , raised and died a true

Just today I'm in a foreign country alone, confused about the next step as an international student. Someone played so lovely this song in front of a shoping mall it brought back home memories and peace
It's really difficult I know Elz. Praying that God gives you the strength and comfort being far away from home.

My deepest condolences. There are people you don’t even know who are with you in spirit
Accept my condolences. May God Almighty comfort you and grant you the grace to go through your grief with His peace. I lost my husband 7 years ago, and it seems like yesterday. Be comforted!!!
May you have the comfort of the holy spirit with you each day!

I’m Muslim and always find these Hymns heart cleansing. May God almighty bless all his servants, far and beyond.
This hymn proclaims and praise Jesus Christ the true and living God, the Savior of the world, 1Corinthians 15:3-4: "For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the Scriptures: "Romans 5:8-9: "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him."
John 1:1-4,12-13: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. ... But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God."
Jesus loves you Hamza He really cares for you. I don't mean too be rude but I know in the Islamic world you believe God speaks through dreams. Maybe you could ask God if He is real? Blessing and Peace too you brother :)

But it says it be a cross that raiseth me , JESUS is the only way. His death at the cross, he didn't die for no reason. People will perish forever ♾️ if they reject him.
@@praisemysaviorjesuschrist8015 Muslims have never rejected Jesus pbuh. Jesus pbuh is our Prophet. His name is mentioned more than Muhammad pbuh in the Quran. It can be said that Muslims respect and accept his teaching as much as the Christians. The only difference is we don't see him as "Son of God" as per the original Gospel, which we claimed it was changed by the rulers of the past.
If you have the time, do read this book : Misquoting Jesus by Bart Ehrman. A Christian friend of mine recommended this a few years back

You sound like a dead soul careless and numb for the dead to a governemt who distroyed them to a grave. Perhaps you area dead soul yourself!
I know things are gonna get worse and I can only say Stay Safe every time I'm behind the deli counter at Publix seeing people of all ages wearing masks. Some kids without masks that's worrying because people are treating this like it's gonna go away when it's not. My mom's friends was a nurse from a different hospital now has it which means it can happen to anyone. And I would really appreciate it if you wouldn't call me careless or numb when I know how bad it is. Even when people around me say everything is fine when really it's not. I have a sister who has chemo cancer and we have to be careful around her because she's health sensitive. My mother and younger brother have asthma and if they catch this. Well i don't know what to do then.😔

God is nearer to you than you Imagine. Amazing song though sad but beautiful offering His Mercies ,hope and peace.
This is one of my favorite verses. Isn't it wonderful that indeed, God goes before us, He is with us, He will not leave us or forsake us? Whenever I read this verse, I recall that night in December 2009 when shortly after falling asleep, I had a cerebral aneurysm rupture and had a subarachnoid hemorrhage. I did not have any previous warning signs, including the classic worst headache in the world. My husband, who was not supposed to be home from work yet... was home from work and not yet asleep. He tells me I became sick and that was what alerted him to the fact that I was in trouble. My son, who has emergency response training was not supposed to be home yet as he had an event going on that night yet... he had just come home. They were going to take me to the nearest hospital when suddenly I ordered them from the back of the ambulance to take me to another hospital. That particular hospital "just happened" to be up the street from what was then known as The National Brain Aneurysm Center and the doctor who "just happened" to be on-call that night was one of the founders of that center and is a leading expert on the treatment of ruptured brain aneurysms. Did I mention that at the time no one had any idea of what had happened to me? I certainly couldn't communicate, or so I have been told and the only time I spoke without being spoken to was when I told them which hospital to take me to. It is interesting to note that shortly before I got out of the hospital, my neurosurgeon walked into the room one day with a large group of people and told them that they were looking at a miracle. Hmm... apparently people who have brain aneurysms after they fall asleep generally never wake up again. It does not matter to me what someone else thinks or says. Like Paul I can say with confidence, "... nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day." 2 Timothy 1:12
Maha Souri Psalm 18
I live alone in my small house. Most of my love ones were gone. Sometimes I think God forget about me. Its like I'm trap with my small world.

Remember that there is a God in heaven who forgives sin and loves unconditionally ❤
"For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by His grace, as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God put forward as a propitiation, by his blood, to be received by faith. This was to show God's righteousness , because in His divine forbearance he had passed over former sins. It was to show his righteousness at the present time, so that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus."

And back to you!
Life without God isn't worth living. I've tried, so hard, to live as an atheist, but haven't found that fulfillment of the soul, that higher contentment that only God can bestow in grace. I've tried all philosophies, all atheistic systems of the intellect, but now I'm back to praying, back to praising. I don't know how long it will last before the stubborn, conceited intellect rebels again, but I've found happiness only in the resurrected Lord.

StalinJ Correya Ephesians 6:16 - In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
I believe that true philosophy and true science can have no conflict with god. However to live by faith, "in the sure hope of things *not seen*" (Hebrews 11:11) is to set aside the challenges that I can't overcome with my own intellect and to simply trust and believe God's word. The intellectual in me calls it wilful ignorance, but aren't we told to be fools for Christ? (1Corinthians 4:10) We can't be 'childish' in the propaganda we take notice of but we can, and should, be 'childlike' in what we choose to *believe* (Matthew 18:3)
Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with great joy, to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen. (Jude 1:24)
Keep hold of Jesus!

I guess we know that you would be taking the blue pill in the matrix. I personally would rather live a life of self honesty with my eyes uncovered than a life where i buried my eyes in the sand and hid. If there is any god worth worshiping, first he would not ask that we do so, and second, he would hope that we become all that we would become, and that includes not believing in a made up fairy tale.
*****
Science and religion/fath are literally opposing arguments. Science is the absence of faith, it is based on empirical observation and weight of evidence. There is no evidence for any god. Moreover let me ask, why is it that you follow the christian god? if you were born in the middle east it would be allah, if you were born a few thousand years ago and lived in scandanavia it might be thor, or if you were born in greece around that time it might be zeus and apollo.
Nevertheless, belief in god or no god, this song is still beautiful
I just want you all too know that Jesus is a good God and He's so in love with you. My heart goes out too anyone struggling I just want you know that Jesus loves you and died for you. When you cry He cries. It says in the Bible God is slow to anger abounding in love. Jesus made a way too be with the Father. He wants you too be with Him forever God bless you all :')

Midnight Mass makes this song hit A LOT harder.
I finished it three days ago and have been stuck on this video since. It has given this song a whole new perspective.
100%…Im born and raised Roman Catholic and have heard this hymn many times. But it really has a different feel now since I’ve watched Midnight Mass. Won’t lie, I wept.
Today's the 110th anniversary of that tragic night. Event that still touches people's hearts even after all those years. Let all the souls lost on the board of the Titanic Rest In Eternal Peace.
Still the most beautiful hymns ever heard.

I recently played this song for my mother, just before she went to be with her Lord Jesus. I especially remember her smile while listening!
A very moving hymn. It is believed that prior to the Titanic sank, the band on board played this hymn until it went down to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. It is a very tragic and sad event. May all those who died on board the Titanic rest in peace!
+Sui Ting Tse This world is another Titanic going down. Will we learn from the sunk Titanic and seek refuge in Christ before it's too late? Let us strive to appropriate the Salvation afforded us at so great a price.
+Ellie Crabtree Very well said Ellie. Thanks for your reply. God bless you!
+Ellie Crabtree amen! there is only one life boat that can save us - Jesus. Abide in Him. Turn from the false deceptive promises of sin and trust only in the faithful promises of God fulfilled in Jesus Christ. Jesus is the only lifeboat.
Supposedly it was the last hymn the orchestra played before the tilt of the deck was too much to play.
MYOB Crabtree hey I was just having a conversation with my daddy about that.. I still was in such thoughts n so I found this song here.. nearer my god to thee
Nearer my God to thee.. Though this Corona seems to threaten my relationship with you Lord but I'll stand firm to you because I know you are near me.
Don't led anything threaten your relationship with God. Cling on to The Cross of Calvary. When you are in God's hands, nothing can pluck you from him.
I’m listening to Nearer my God to theee, he is near to us in our times of grief, which I’m in as I lost my youngest son to a massive heart attack, I lost my wife of 31 years on 3/6/2010, daughter on 7/17/2004, mother in law on 9/5/2004, father on 10/20/2002, mother on 6/12/1997. It’s a comfort for those of us who lean on Jesus who is always there when we call on his name.
Isaiah 43:2 KJV--
When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
27"My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.
30 I and my Father are one."
"Blessed be the God of all comfort and the Father of mercies, who comforts us in all our afflictions . . ." "Weeping endures for a night, but joy comes in the morning." 🌹

Thank you Jesus for giving me peace. This song just brought me peace as i am going through a heartbreak. Lord please heal me
I pray you found solace,🙏
I am trying not to cry over here but those who have died and are in the service or fighting no matter the kind of battle you will live on
"Nobody listens to us at dinner either, So lets keep playing"
"Gentleman, It has been a privilege playing with you tonight..."
This is a very dear praising for me and my wife. At this time I dedicated to our precious and loved daughter in love Shullo
Amen!
"Gentlemen, it has been a privilege playing with you tonight." 💗
Gentlemen, it has been a privilege playing with you tonight
I am a Muslim, and I really appreciate the words of this wonderful expression of love for God.
This hymn mentions the cross where Jesus took our place and paid our sins debt"Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." (Philippians 2:5-11)
This was one of my grandma's favorite hymns. She recently passed from COVID. When I hear this song now, it brings me joy to think about her and I pray she is nearer our creator.
tigersfan14 Amen! She’s now reunited with our creator. God have mercy on us, we don’t deserve anything but you still love us. My grandma also passed away three months ago but I know she’s more alive now than ever. Your grandma is waiting for you!!🙏

I come from watching a Netflix show of Catholic vampires to adding another song to my Gospel folder. That and the crying has made this a weird night.

“Gentlemen, It has been an honor playing with you tonight” Is the Last words of the Brave Musicians that okayed that fateful night on 1912….

@@sphansel3257 Dude... uncool
@@sphansel3257 seriously shouldn't have bothered 😳
Stop judging someone's english when its the thought that matters
Those musicians didn't drown and die
Eyes uplifted, they soared on joyful wing,
Shedding their garments, cleaving the sky
Changed, they went up to meet the King!
For those of us who truly are Biblically "born again" "believeth" followers of *"our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ"* - what Majesty, Awe, Reverence, Thanksgiving, and Worship by this 'olde hymn' unto *"the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy"* ~ *"the Lord God Almighty"*
.
For those who deny *"the LORD God"* - there is hope
- for "it is witten" in *2 Peter, Chapter 3* [AV]~[KJV] *:*
*The Lord is not slack concerning his promise,* as some men count slackness;
*but is longsuffering to us-ward,*
*not willing that any should perish,*
*but that all should come to repentance.*
~~~> *1 Timothy 2:1-6* [AV]
.
For those of us who are truly "born again" believers and followers of "our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ" IS Good, BUT, what about those who have not heard the "Good News" yet?
@@charleshurt6032 - You have chosen to publickly question *"the words of truth"* that are written only in the *66 Books* of *"the word of God"*
.
I personally "colntinueth" to be very-very thankful unto *"the only wise God"* ( *1 Timothy 1:17* ~ *Jude **1:25* ~AV) for "the words of truth" written some 3,000 years ago in *Proverbs 26:4* [AV]

Dear Brother Nick, I am sorry you assumed I was questioning the words of God, for I do accept His Word wholeheartedly. I accept His Son, Jesus as my saviour. I am grateful for His example and His wonderful atonement. When I asked "what about those who have not heard the "Good News" yet?", I wanted to remind folks that God loves all His children, (saints, sinners, and strangers) and wants us to reach out with God's word to them, in order to give them a choice to accept the glorious Gospel. I believe a "Saint" is any person who believes in Jesus Christ and strives to follow Him.
Thank you for calling the misunderstanding to my attention. ch
This is the best version of Nearer My God To Thee.
My grandfather loved this song this was the last thing we listened together before he left to be with my grandmother and uncle
아플 때 많이 부른 찬송입니다.
하나님이 치료해 주셨습니다.
감사합니다.
GOD Bless whoever listens to this.
Thank you Jesus for loving me and the world. Thank you for dying to save us from ourselves.
David Willcox Yes, save us from ourselves. That intellect that says, I can produce AI and it'll be right, mate, that that says we'll produce such and such weapons and missiles and everything will be A, OK, that in our intellect that says we can choose, the features we want in our babies, and cut out the rest. What could possibly go wrong? Lots, that's what, and that's the problem. So, Heavenly Father, save us from ourselves.
"Save us from ourselves" yup!
Amen
I am an atheist, but I grew up in the Catholic Church. I had almost forgotten how alluringly captivating, and how seductive that church can be. Listening to this beautiful melody made me realize how much I miss that old church of my childhood , it made me remember the joy of Mass the gathering to sing and praise God was always so soul cleansing. I Miss her and her Son so much including her obedience, her purity, her mildness, her good council and docility, her charity, and all her other virtues, I miss praying, I miss worshiping. I miss God in my life and heart.
You just prayed the purest prayer there is, humble, heartfelt, and loving. God is love. The powerful Church is never the thing. The powerful love it reminds is in your heart, is the thing.
You can exercise Faith and find Christ in His true Church, and find real JOY!
We sang this song at my dear wife's funeral some time ago, it still brings emotions to the surface when listening to it being sung! She's in a much better place, that's a comfort, I love the song and it's message!
Now matter how I die, my soul is prepared.
I am glad you follow Christ and are assured you will live with God forever.
My mom told me that this is the music she wants to play when she is gone. My mom recently went home to God July 31 at the age of 81
She left this painful world
So sorry for your loss x
Leave the world alone, stop and close your eyes as often as you can..
I love you all
We love you too Ivan. God Bless and close your eyes.
