I went to a christian founded high school,and while at it i became a choir leader for the all girls' school.,this hymn would echo our hall amongst others from the golden bells hymnal.Blessings!

My chains fell off, my heart was free. I rose, went forth, and followed Thee

[@christiansaint716]

The only thing I do is change the words in the last verse to say "and now I approach the Eternal Throne and bow before my Lord and King!" Any rewards I get will be cast before His Throne! I just want to be w/Him for eternity!!

[@susanh1447]

Amen!

[@hayleysmid9554]

I still remember myself crying over this verse. May God bless all of us. The light is in the darkness and the darkness shall not overcome it.

Excellent message. Thank you. I was raised in the Nazarene in Indiana. I was called to the Foursquare Gospel church and have served as a pastor for almost 50 years, both preaching, singing and playing piano/organ.God bless you, dear brother.

My chains fell off, how can it be that my Jesus should die for me. My Lord Jesus should die for me

[@jillrusche6]

I have been singing this hymn in church since childhood, and didn’t know there was an additional stanza that I had never heard before. The doctrinal depth of the hymns of the faith are so rich. They truly are the legacy of the church.

[@Lynnda86]

So true. It's sad that only a few churches still incorporate these into their worship service. 🙏🏻 ❤ ✝️ 📖 🕊 🎶 🙌🏼

[@inasmal3996]

Reminds me of happy days when just being reborn within the home church singing with the other saints and my children still young. Many years later and still happy in Christ and waiting for my Lord Jesus soon return

Hallelujah Hallelujah praise the LORD AMEN 🙏🏻 ✝️🛐🌼🌹🌻

[@stanelder3523]

I love this time. I know most of these songs, but not this one. My brother had dementia and couldn’t remember his sisters names. But when you played the hymns of old, you could sing along with them. He never forgot his God!

[@ellzcreationz]

This is one of my favourite hymns of all time. We sing it a lot in my Seventh-day Adventist Church, and in a youth group, we have changed some of the melody in the chorus, and I really enjoy singing this song. This hymn has personally impacted my life, especially during moments when I was deepening my relationship with Jesus Christ. The lyrics, 'died He for me, who caused His pain!' express a profound love. THANK GOD FOR JESUS CHRIST.

[@Darryl-ci5pv]

Were you born a Seventh-Day Adventist? Your founder Ellen G white imposed a works based righteousness which is false. It is 100% Grace.

[@johndonner5830]

Thank You Jesus. What an amazing Savior you are.

[@Lynnda86]

Amen 🙏🏻

[@kcmuanpuia]

This is the greatest song of salvation/redemption that I know! I can sing this over and over again all the time.

[@eveb446]

I have just seen this video of one of my favourite hymns. You both sang and played it beautifully. Thank you for sharing. I have subscribed.

[@ddsu1]

If I just read these hymns as beautiful poetry sonnets, ... they are so very lovely. Full of sweet fragrance. Just to read them out loud to God is a privilege. - Debbie

[@geoffmaxwell7442]

My childhood was with the Methodist Church and And Can It Be was a very well sung song. It still very much apart of my memory. I am 68 years old turning 69. You are correct many of the good old hymns are not sung any more. This I think the Church has lost the richness in the old hymns.

[@marilynhenderson7621]

I was raised in the methodist church and just loved singing this hymn....beautiful words...I'm still living in God and wouldn't want to be anywhere else. HE is my everything!!!❤

[@jamesnicholson3313]

And can it be "the chains fell off" Oh for a thousand tongues "He sets the prisoners free" all their Hymns have wonderful truths. Many thanks dear brother for sharing this beautiful truth. Jim from Australia.

[@happinessinheart5340]

This reminded me of my happy childhood years of going to Church. Oh, how I used to belt this out loud! I love it, I love it, I truly ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️love this song!

[@amywebster8370]

I love this hymn. When I was in college, my roommate and I had a poster with the lyrics to this hymn in the shape of a cross. We were not allowed to hang the poster on our dorm room walls, but could hang things on doors. We put it up in our bathroom . Many times I would reflect on the words of this song as I was doing my bathroom business.

[@edithofmo3171]

Great comments, Luke, on this unsurpassable classic!Wish you could've grown up singing these wonderful hymns you're learning. Thank you for keeping them alive.

[@zaj6425]

Thanks Luke. This is the Methodists' Anthem! It's a gem! The hymn associated with the Wesley brothers' "conversation" has as its first line: "Where shall my wondering soul begin?" It's written by Charles Wesley.

[@ac3414]

Nothing bring tears to my eyes like “and can it be” . Looking forward to this thanks 🙏🏼

[@ellie123hymes]

Yes!!!!!!!!! You are the first person I have found who thinks like I do about those first four words! I'm in tears through the rest of the song! The verse "Long my imprisoned..." is the day I got saved over 50 years ago! "Thine eye diffused a quickening ray." Oh my, what a miracle!!

[@yvonneengelbrecht7490]

Growing up In the Baptist church we often sang this hymn. The tune with up down singing always makes it a wonderful hymn to sing. The words also so meaningful.

[@johannahowardtripp8907]

Hello Luke I often listen to you on u tube. I love the way you explain the Start if the hymns. I'm in Norkem Park and sang that song in the early 70's when I was first aware how much Jesus loves me. My chains fell off, my heart was free... I sang it in the Baptist church where the Lord opened my heart. Thank you so much Luke I love listening to you and how you Play the piano. God bless your ministry.

[@paulettedavidson4541]

It's a very meaningful hymn, it touches every of your life.😢

[@aylaneeameresekere6904]

Being a Baptist we are supposed to request to be baptized. I couldn't do it as I was not convinced. It was the word's of And can it be. This was 40 years ago. This is my favorite hymn UpTo now and requested it to be sung at my funeral.

[@DanielAtkinson1]

Thank you for this, Luke. I, too, live in Thailand and this is my father's favourite hymn - he's a big fan of the Wesley brothers. The song is poignant as my father and mother suffer from dementia. I have become a Christian fairly recently even though i was brought up in a Christian family. I still struggle with my old life but this song means so much more to me now that I'm saved. Even now it's hard to grasp how my Lord loves me - free grace indeed and what amazing love.

[@suegie821]

Beautiful words. Only after becoming a Christian...these words now mean so much more

[@veemcee]

I love this hymn! I first learned of this hymn (sang it often at our non-denominational church) as a young Christian in the late 70s. Very powerful theology-such an amazing love that my God should die for me!

[@doreenmcalpine8869]

Brought up hearing , singing and playing this beautiful hymn and still after 80 plus years it is still just so vibrant true and real. Experiencing the chains of sin falling off and accepting His love and Grace is and has such a real purpose.

[@lindakinzer6698]

This is, perhaps, one of my favorite hymns. I sang it first in a choir arrangement but heard it often on Christian radio growing up. I love the song. In my 7th decade, we sing really good new contemporary songs that I love but hymns are also a part of worship. Such a rich treasury of music and lyrics through the ages til now.

[@advocate38]

I'm a Ghanaian living in Thailand. I'm a Methodist and love hymns. I just chanced on your channel and I am virtually addicted and stuck to your videos. The tears from my eyes though. How I wish I would one day get to be with you in my Methodist church in Ghana to sing these wonderful hymns to the congregation. I know you would absolutely love it

[@deonvanrhyn934]

I am just as hooked on this program.

[@paulawastel8315]

We used to sing this hymn in Boksburg Mdthodist Chur h next to the lake when Tony Bethke was still our pastor. I love all these old Methodist hymns and miss singing them so much. Thanx, Luke, for sharing this beautiful hymn with us.❤

[@julieellis6793]

Luke, when i got the notification that you were going to present this song, i got excited. This is one of my very favorite songs, having sung it many times in church. I love all the verses, but the line that stands out to me is "Amazing Love, How Can it be, that thou my God, shouldst die for me" . I don't feel worthy of His love, that He would go to the cross in my place. You sang it beautifully.

[@janiceprice7403]

Beautiful what a wonderful way to tell people of God’s Grace

[@georgeopiyo1492]

This is my most treasured youthful praise and worship songs..it moved me to accept Jesus Christ early in life...

[@louisebrislane6607]

So if that is the true meaning behind the song, then it is no wonder it is such a favourite with all of us who still sing it in our churches in Australia. It is always sung with such gusto & heartfelt joy!!

[@debbieardinger8015]

I love love love this song! Thine eye diffused a quickening ray. I woke! My chains fell off, my heart was free! I rose went forth and followed thee!

Cry cry! So true. ❤

[@margotmaines7427]

I desperately miss the days when my late mother [gone 52 years] played this hymn on our pipe organ and daddy was on the grand piano in the church where I accepted Jesus into my heart in 1959. I was 6 years old. In that magnificent, huge edifice where the accoustics were astounding, the sound of the congregation singing and worshiping God was as close to Heaven on earth as I have been. Praise You, Heavenly Father, for your unfathomable salvation and love to us in sending your only son Jesus to the Cross to redeem helpless mankind!!! ♥♥♥

[@kunegondahoward-tripp68]

I can remember this song with such joy, my chains fell off indeed. It was in my early years of my Christian walk. We sang it quite a lot, I was so thrilled to be able to get to know this song then. I'm writing to you from Kempton park. God bless you and continue to do the work of the Lord. I listen to you and all your various programmes.

My chains fell of my heart was freeing rose went forth and followed thee. I've been a Christian all my 74 years an d this hymn came true to me a few years ago . I. Divorced and had to go fora blood test and my ex husband was a pathologist in the local hospital where I had to go for the test He actually took the blood test which I was dreading but god was gracious that day he took me through it and on walking down the corridor out the hospital I was singing and an it be got to the line my chains fell off my heart was free. Yes I was free . The rest is history and a most blessed life. Thanks be to God

[@deannaburris8649]

This hymn cuts to my core and always brings tears as I sing it. It is the beauty of the gospel and His amazing love.

[@olivergoodness7694]

This is ageless. I wish the modern church haven't lost the art of singing Hymns

[@TheJZackT]

This is a product of the radio: radio songs are meant to be listened to passively, whereas hymns were meant to be sung by the people.

[@tonkatruck1968]

A Treasure for Sure.They are re emerging in the Church ..and there are some "new" hymn writers also writing theologically rich material Praise The Lord!

[@kthoennes]

@tonkatruck1968 yes, but the new ones are very rare. "In Christ Alone" comes to mind, but hard to think of any others

[@carolyndaly9368]

Went up at Billy Graham crusade when 14 and made a real commitment to God . Not really involved in a church for growth/fellowship. As young adult moved to London and became secretary in group called Moral Rearmament MRA which grew out of WW II chaos. Godly with many godly famous people totally committed to 4 absolutes Honesty, Purity, Unselfishness and Love. Brilliant dedicated people . Had deep inner struggle because I couldn't totally commit to MRA and didn't know why. Leaders within MRA knew I wasn't 100 committed and worked to get me committed or so I thought. Began to see that when one becomes a believer at a young age, there needs to be a commitment as an adult realizing what you are walking away from to follow Christ. People in MRA didn't go to church. I worked within leadership so was on inside with committed people. But I couldn't totally commit. Why! Found little Methodist church looking for answers. Went home to Richmond Virginia for visit . My big baptist church has been totally involved in MRA under former pastor. Noticed women wearing lipstick and poured out my heart to former girls leader. Why my struggles with MRA. Simple honey, there's no Jesus! Truth exploded in me . At the little Methodist church I had heard hymn "And can it be" verse about throwing off chains in dungeon as my heart was free became reality. I committed my life to Christ as a 24 year old woman . My way paid to huge MRA conference in Caux Switzerland when I returned to job in London. Loved my job and people I worked with but now had Christ on inside. Back in states got baptized in Holy Spirit and spoke in tongues and went to small Bible school. Just because a group has strong moral principles, does NOT make it Christian. MRA today is called Initiative of Change and still global . In London working inside group, I met Gandi's grandson, king Michael of Romania they wanted to recruit. It looked good, smelled good, felt good but a creation of works....no Jesus. My chains fell off, my heart was free. Found meeting in basement of Spurgeon s Tabernacle of spirit filled folk with amazing speakers like Corrie ten Boom and Brother Andrew who smuggled Bibles into Russia. Amazing life I have had and much more to add

This song blesses me every time I hear it. You did a wonderful job singing it!!❤

[@cgpapineau]

One of my two favorite hymns with "His Robes For Mine." This hymn was sung a lot in my Nazarene church, which is a conservative Methodist denomination. It never ceases to move my heart as I so relate to the progression of the lost sinner to the born again believer who is humbled by what the Savior has done, and done for ME personally. My favorite part of this hymn is "My chains fell off, my heart was free. I rose, went forth, and followed thee." What a burden that was lifted! The last verse is also reassuring in that I will face no condemnation now that I am in Christ. Truly an incredible hymn!

[@cecilphillips4955]

Wonderful hymn. My favorite hymn. Thank you for the video. Cecil ( India)

[@leejoyner262]

I was introduced to this hymn on my first day in Baptist seminary. As we sang it, when we came to the fourth verse and sang the words "my chains fell off, my heart was free . . .," someone yelled out "GLORY!!" My spirit was moved and I have never forgotten those words.

[@glenturrell4485]

I grew up in a Methodist church which valued choral music and, when my voice broke, was very happy to join my dad singing the bass parts in the great hymns much loved by my parents. In my 76th year I really miss the musical and spiritual gravity of such hymns which are at a great distance from the skinny stuff currently popular.

[@deannemiller891]

I especially like the line your Grace found me because we can't find him. He hast to find us, give us his grace, give us the faith to receive his gift, open our eyes to see the truth, and recognize that none of this is of our own doing.

George Whitefield was the first member of Holy Club to be converted, followed by Charles & John. When George saw the effects of his preaching at the coal mine at Bristol in 1739 by the white lines on the blackened faces caused by their tears George told both of them, got John to take over the preaching, & he took ship to America where he became one of the main preachers of the Great Awakening. They all understood how ignorant their generation was of Genuine Christianity, just like they had been, so the lyrics they used had a great amount of correct doctrines to help instruct the people. Greatly love & respect the three of them.

Tears rolling down when singing this , it challenges in many ways . All these years I knew this song has only 5 parts today I came to know that original version got 6parts. Amazing love that gave holy blood and suffered agony in the cross to provide salvation for free for all who repent and reconcile with him

Luke: I was a member or Colonial Beach Baptist Church for over 50 years. However, I had never heard of this beautiful old hymn until we called a Pastor who had been educated at Cambridge England and who, at the time we called him was serving at Chaplain of Arlington National Cemetary in Washington D.C. He was surprised that none of us were familiar with it. What a beautiful rendition of the Gospel. You are so right it is God's Grace plus nothing!
