One of my very favorites. So beautiful

What an interesting analysis, one of my favorite church songs!

One of the pieces sung at my ordination

The words you are singing are now more commonly sung to Regent Square as is sung in the LBW (AKA the Green Hymnal).

Robert, I know we sing Lord Dismiss Us with Your Blessing to SICILIAN MARINERS. Can that hymn Work to This Hymn tune? I have seen. Jesus Christ is Risen Today, ALLELUIA (which we sing to Easter Hymn) accompanied by the tune LLANFAIR.. when did Angels From The Realms of Glory get Wed with the current tune R3GENT SQUARE? Can you do a hymn of the week in which R3GENT SQUARE by Henry Smart.

Vaughan Williams (not related to either Wolliam or Perer Williams) is represented by the famous LASST UNS ERFREUEN (LBW 143, LBW 157, LBW 543) ad I mentioned, not a Wels tune, but worth an honorable mention, because ot its numerous Alleluis ans O Praise Him, and the tunr known as Dexter (Rarth And All Stars) with ots melismatic Sing to the Lord a New Song (whicj has a repeat) and tge actual refrain which itself had a melismatic He has Done marvelous things opening phrase. Also not q wrlsh tune, but it the badis behind the latrr trxt ALLELUIA, Jesus is Risen which first arrived on th3 scene as a Lutheran Service Book (LCMS) hymn and then the ELW got it. Handel is noteworthy for giving us two HYMN texts still in use today, being Joy to the World and the popular Easter Hymn Thine is the Glory. Dix is flap a repeat tube (LBW 82 and LBW 561). IN ELW, the Dine nomine tube (LBW 174 and GTG 270)

Llanfair, The Ash Grove, Saint Denio, and the ever popular Hyfrydol are some othe Welsh hymn tunes that we havein the US that are on common use (all four tunes I mentioned ate in the LBW, THE GREEN HYMNAL and amonf then, this time, LBW 343, LBW 415, Llanfair, LLBW 128, The Ash Grove, LBW 221, LBW 557, Saint DENIO, lbw 526, and as I mentioned, the world famous Hyfrydol (LBW 31, 315, 158).

The Mirgenlied tune Name as seen in the LBW, is replaced here by Bristol Tune Book.

The fibal Verse of Jrsus Christ is Risen today takes the thurd a s fourth lines are derived frim Praise God from whim all Blessings Flow, adding the Melismatic ALLELUIA.

LBW Hymn 131

Sung that on Sunday

Play the trumpets with full organ

That was beautiful and they way you explained it! This is one of my favorites.

Thank you. I've been searching for information on this for years. I've loved it since I was a child.

Thank you for this. Wonderful blessing.

the DOXOLOGY is not all people that on earth do dwell! Look it up!

Excellent! This was my morning devotional hymn during this Advent week. Thanks for sharing your gift!

Nice, but the head movement and bopping takes from the beauty of the song.

Way too loud I would use flutes and strings and clarinets

Thanks for the video!

Can you play Tis good lord to be here

Tgat Zimbrlstern must be on tge Swell Division +meaning it is ynder expression). What is the stop specifications for the Moller in yiur Church? Have youbheard of OHS or tge Crgan Media Foundation? Have youbever participated 8n a Pipe Organ Encounter?

A A B' B B B A

Have you ever used Hymn #505 (Baptist Lyrics)

Everyone who plays a piano or organ should know how to play Jesus Loves Me.

This hymn is.also sung as "Take My Life, And Let Be" sung to the very commin hymn tune Hendon.

Too robotic, and too fast. Slow the fuck down, it’s a psalm not a folk song.

The song Sounds like its is relates to Richard Hillert/Ron Nelson in the LBW LITURGY page 82.

Robert, this hymn was originally composed with 7 verses. Most hymnal include verses 1 through 6 of thr originally composed 7 stanza text. The verse Children of God, Dying and Rising is rarely sung.

In rhe LBW it says Feed Me till I want Now More, abd in v 3, Songs of Praises.

Why ELW went with Bruatil Tune Biok rather than Morgenlied as un the LBW Modulatung from A Flat to A on the stanza. How did you achievd that?

This trumpet tune was featured on the OHS / Organ Media Foundation had thus as a framing piece leading into the video on the second organ (the Kimball) at Atlantic City. Thus hymn itself, was sung to close the OHS concentration back in 2013 Played in a Wurlitzer and using the first six of the originally composed LBW stanzas

I love the enthusiasm of Robert. Thanks for this life affirming hymn.

On Our Way Rejoicing is sung to Hymn Tune Darwall (Darwall's 148th)

How did you register verse 4 on the Positive Division?

How did you go from A Flat to A. I would have thought a Major Third from A Flat major to D major much like Beethoven went from D Minor in the opening of Symphony 9 (from which Joyful Joyful is originated) to G Major

Compare the Morgenlied Tune in B Flat and see if Mr. maker's tune Morgenlied compared to this version shows the same usage of secondary and primary dominant chords.

My personal favorite Easter hymn having sang this every year since growing up as a Lutheran. An interesting tidbit is that the key that this hymn is in for ELW (A-flat Major) is actually a whole step down from the key (B-flat Major) this hymn was in for the ELW's predecessor Lutheran hymnal (Lutheran Book of Worship or LBW). One of very hymns to get this between the two hymnals.

The final verse of Jesus Christ is Risen today. The last two lines of the doxology are quoted with the usual Alleluia.

Is the hymn in this new version still set in G Major as it was in the LBW or did this hymn like Morgenlied, get reharmonize 1 step lower in F Major (bus a bus B Flat rather than F sharp)? In this version the life word Lord and you were changed to a God and respectively.

From where does this harmonization come? It's simpler than the Bach harmonization that I tend to encounter in most hymnals nowadays.

How do you get a group to sing this together well without a steady beat? Solo is fine, you have freedom, but in an ensemble I can’t see how.

Thank you.

885 is the way the Christian Church Disciples of Christ sings the Doxology as an Offering Response (aka Offertory Verse. I don't know where they got this liturgical tradition from. I grew up on the LBW and the verses aLet The Vineyards Be Fruitful Lord and Create in Me A Clean Heart although I'm Lent we sang Thank the Lord following Communion (traditionally omitted in Lent but the congregation to which I belonged at the time did not use the lesser known Nunc Dimitis tune abd text.). I do not know if All People That On Earth do Dwell made it into the LBW. The Doxology itself, however did get in that canon of Hymnody as 564 and 565. We often sang it as a table grace at Social Events. Another table Grace we often sang was Johny Apple Seed (O The Lord is Good to Me);which could relate well to verse 2 (Know that the the Lord is Good, ....).

To get a larger audience, title the post ELW with the hymn number, title, as pastors and worship will find these more and your audience will grow worldwide

Awesome. Love your posts. Have not seen new ones lately. Don't quit.

884 has been used as an offering response verse. It also, in terms of the Lutheran Tradition, in terms of meals and fellowship, we sing this as a table grace. 884 & 885 get used more commonly than things like This is the Feast (LBW P. 81, from Setting 2) or Let The Vineyards be Fruitful Lord (p 86 in LBW, From setting 2). Let The Vineyards from Setting 2 is sung at Young Life's Woodleaf when dismissing from Chapel to the dinner meal.

Do you have a Cornet on the Mighty Möller?

Thanks for the analysis. I don't see E Phrygian, only E Harmonic Minor. Is this something you added? I'm not sure what your theory is here, could you explain it?
