Zondag 29 November, drie dagen na dat dit op youtube uitkwam heb ik belijdenis mogen doen van mijn geloof en na het JA-woord had ik dit lied als verzoek opgegeven. Kijk nu een dag later terug en zie deze post en denk wat een toeval, maar niets is toeval in deze wereld haha. Dankjewel Gert voor dit stuk schitterend.

I can only echo the sentiments of Charles Rae. Through 'covid' I discovered Gert's wonderful concerts and the highlight of each week is listening to his concerts.

[@ceesboom7033]

Gert, we can feel your emotions and your heartfelt love for God coming through each note, each phrase that you play. So beautiful and this makes me want to fall to my knees to worship our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

[@isabellenowak9792]

Amen 💝

[@ullinator1388]

Ich weiß nicht, ob Gert an diesen Gott/Jesus-Kram glaubt, vielmehr scheint mir seine Motivation mehr in der Harmonie der Melodien zu liegen. Du solltest die besonderen Fähigkeiten begabter Menschen nicht auf diesen Götter-Mist reduzieren, von Göttern und Religionen geht nur Gewalt, Krieg und Tod aus.

[@charlesrae3793]

One of the great discoveries that I have made due to COVID and its attendant lockdown is the wonderfully sensitive and deeply felt music of Gert. He puts his whole being into his playing and takes us with him. He doesn't just play the music; he lives it.

[@annemackellar6293]

You are right Charles. He plays completely from his heart. It is one thing to be technically brilliant, but to play from your heart connects you to your audience in a very intimate way. He is totally wonderful. See you at the next concert.

[@arnie3631]

So beautifully played. I love this hymn and I love it even more how Gert played it with so much emotion

[@dudleydiehl6850]

It is lovely to observe your body motion when you are really'feeling' the music. It is as if your head and shoulders are also trying to play along! I was told years ago that when congregants could see me start to rock back and forth on the stool that they knew the music was coming from my soul. It was usually my best playing.

[@TerryP1922]

Breathtaking beautiful. Gert, you never cease to amaze me with your heavenly talent. Thank you for playing this reverent hymn of praise. Truly you and the music are one.

[@sallywebb9270]

Thank you, Gert. This is one of my favourites of all your arrangements. So beautifully played as always, with sensitive registration. I love that you take hymns with words that mean so much and help us to worship with them. God bless you and your precious family

[@camberleysunseeker9540]

Abide with me, fast falls the eventide The darkness deepens Lord, with me abide When other helpers fail and comforts flee Help of the helpless, oh, abide with me Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away Change and decay in all around I see O Thou who changest not, abide with me I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory? I triumph still, if Thou abide with me… Wonderful words

Excellent! Gives me much more appreciation for the beauty of this hymn. It was my grandmothers favorite and sung at her memorial.

[@bolandbert]

Dudley Diehl Millions of ‘Christians’ are asking, "Oh Lord, show your power!" Powerrrr!" “Let people believe in Jesus” (impossible prayer: never in New Testament!). "Let" this and "let" that "," let "so and" let "so! ‘Oh God, dont leave us’!!! But a). You blame God if something is wrong? "He" must "do it" while He did everything 2000 years ago? And YOU - 24,000,000 (24million‼️🇺🇸) “Christians” did not vote so that the Kenyan muslim commie Hussein O. could be YOUR ‘president’ for eight years and destroy and divisive YOUR (former) USA ⁉️ b). This is the Old Testament way of prayers, and in disbelief c). Often we try to force and strain God with many long prayers. Or with many, hundreds or thousands! God should try hard! No! God cannot be manipulated, not even by these prayers that often go with shouting. But dear (Pentecostal) believer, God is not deaf. And He wishes much more these things than you wish! God is more motivated than you are! And then this. Heb13: 5b, the Amplified version says, “... for He [God] Himself said, I will in no way abandon you or give you up or leave you without support. [I will] not, [I will] not, [I will] in no way leave you helpless, nor abandon you or let you down (relax My hold on you)! [Certainly not!] And then there are still Christians who are moaning and groaning and cry, "Oh God, be with us!". "Be near to us!"... "When we leave this place, come with us oh God!" En: "Oh Lord don't leave us!" "Don't take your Spirit from us!" "Stay with Your Spirit!" That seems very spiritual and humble, but it is also a Christian that prays in unbelief and ignorance, unbiblical, self- and not God-centered and even simply by religious pride, Prov13:10, Jac3:16. It is Old Testament and not for an adult Christian! Everything we think we do without God(s Word) is actually prideful. Because "I" can and do it myself! While God clearly says many times that He will never leave us again; in Heb13:5b even five times in the negative in Greek, especially read the ‘Amplified’ to experience that certainty, peace and joy! And never praying ‘backwards’ (like ‘cursing’?) again! Most Christians then point to Ps51, but this is the OT where the Spirit came upon people and left again! Although David had a great deal of faith in his heart, he was not born again, nor was the Spirit permanently indwelling like the New Covenant believer! Anyway, what terrible ‘prayers’ for the Christian actually, prayers of unbelief, through ignorance and wrong teaching! It has nothing to do with faith, but it is just another knowledge problem. It is clear then that we do not know Father and his Being! Most Christian offer sacrifices and many prayers to God and ask God ‘never to leave them’, but also believe that God does not really hear them! But He always hears, it is not His fault!

[@brucewilliams8714]

Gert was quietly pleased with that, as we can see from his gentle smile when the tremulant was closed. Quite beautiful.

I bought this piece from Gert and played it at a very small church on HW organ using Piotr Grabowski Azzio organ three weeks ago. The people loved it, as I do. The Azzio organ has a nice tremulant. Thank you for publishing it. It will be a staple in my repertoire.

[@kokkieamiga]

Azzio is a beautiful organ for sure. You should make a video from Gert's Abide with me, and upload it to your channel, and then share it here.

[@WimBijl]

Thanksgiving Day (dankzeggingsdag), vaak verkort tot Thanksgiving, is een nationale feestdag in de Verenigde Staten en Canada waarop dank wordt gezegd (traditioneel aan God) voor de oogst en voor allerlei andere goede dingen. In de Verenigde Staten wordt deze dag gevierd op de vierde donderdag in november. In Canada, waar de oogst eerder in het jaar eindigt, wordt het op de tweede maandag in oktober gevierd. In protestantse kerken in Nederland bestaat de Dankdag voor het Gewas. Thanksgiving wordt gevierd met de hele familie en men legt grote afstanden af om bij elkaar te kunnen zijn. Omdat het in de VS op een donderdag valt, is het meestal zo dat werknemers ook vrijdags vrij krijgen. Daardoor wordt een familiereünie van vier dagen mogelijk.

[@WimBijl]

Read the bible in the old testament Deuteronomy 16:13-17

[@ameenjohnson1061]

@@welovehugs1884 If you don't agree with celebrating Thanksgiving, that's fine. Just because you don't agree with someone's beliefs doesn't mean that you don't have to treat them with respect. I'm going to accept that you have different beliefs than me, and I have no problem with that. God tells us to be kind to one another and to love your neighbor as yourself. You are entitled to your opinion and I am to mine. The point I was trying to get across in my original comment is that I am thankful that I have to opportunity to listen to Gert's music. I play the organ myself (certainly not as well as he does, though) and he is very inspirational. Have a great day and may God bless you.
