"Christ the Lord Is Risen Today" & "Thine Be the Glory" - Duke Chapel, Easter 2012

[@wk7060]

My Mom passed away 21 years ago, and I still cannot get thru an Easter Service without tears, thinking of how many times I sang this beautiful hymn with her growing up in the 52 years that she was with me.

[@annamariayannetta242]

My Mom passed3 years ago 4:00

[@seniorskateboarder5958]

That's magnificent! A large choir and large congregation singing God's praise.

[@karennelson5206]

Simply amazing! ❤

[@afritimm]

Especially at a very leftie university (I know this as a graduate. I also gave my senior organ recital here).

[@charlesrogers822]

My father was buried on Good Friday April 13, 1979. I went to Easter morning service and as the organ began this hymn the tears began rolling down my face. It still brings tear to my eyes all these years later.

[@nancyhobson9710]

Another hymn:"Christ the Lord will come again" that's an encouragement and it's going to happen VERY SOON

[@rshuler6967]

I’m so sorry for your loss, what a great reunion Day we have to look forward to! My father went to be with the Lord on April 13, 6 years ago. God Bless🕊🙏🏼

[@mary2013]

I understand. My mother died when I was 20 years old. I couldn’t have an organ at my wedding because I’d cry my eyes out. She played the organ.

[@thomascochran8669]

I am sure your father watched mass.. with a smile

[@sandranodine1151]

I’m sorry about your father even all these years I know you miss him so much.

[@SeanJohnIoannesGiovanni]

I couldn't stop myself sending hearts for your comments. When I was a child of 7 years old I walked to the one leading the music and told that I want them to play this hymn. Now I'm 36 and still love this hymn. Love from India 🇮🇳

[@dodgecharger4404]

Only in the Christian faith is found One who conquered death and sin. Look in all the other religions, there you will find only death and despair, a dead or dying prophet, no deliverance from sin. Jesus Christ stands alone as your hope!

[@zadoksingh4346]

Amen!

[@jimalbright8257]

The way Church should be. Honoring and adoring Christ and His finished work. Not a circus with contemporary musicians in blue jeans, guitars and drums.

[@joshuabuchanan1141]

I agree

[@duaneheckman3171]

I post this each year on my Facebook page for all the "newer" friends I've accumulated. Each time I listen to this it brings tears to my eyes. If this is what our praise on earth sounds like -- can you even imagine the praises of the heavenly host around the throne!! Christ is RISEN INDEED!! ALLELUIA!

Thank you ! God bless !! Very heartwarming!

[@steve19811]

These hymns are truly breathtaking and transcendental. I like the way they're played in their original form and not sped up. These songs help us remember to follow the example of Christ and praise him with gratitude without ceasing.....

To everyone who participated in the beautiful renditions of these glorious hymns, thank you. I have watched this many times since losing my mother in 2015 and it has brought me great comfort. The Holy Spirit was with you that day and continues to work through this music. God bless all of you.

[@priyapeiris9922]

[@gregcoulas9302]

I understand . I miss my Mom and Dad. This hymn brings tears to my eyes!

[@dodgecharger4404]

Two of the great hymns of the Christian Faith, full of wonderful truth and hope for this sinful and dying humanity! Where else can one find forgiveness of sin, and genuine hope for eternity? All praise and honor belongs to Jesus Christ who secured these for all who believe on Him. The greatest invitation still echoes across the centuries of time, down to our day: Come, believe, find forgiveness.. all who thirst for the water of life: Come!

[@frankhinchcliffe4641]

Wow! How do I miss that type of Easter service The choir, the Aeolean organ and the traditional Easter music.

[@janicerushforth-lee3179]

A great truth and hope for us all, this is the basis of our Christian faith

The crowd size has NOTHING to do with social distancing. 95% of those people are the “C & E crowd.” They go to church for Christmas and Easter, that’s it.

[@brega6286]

I was a little devote Lutheran child...until my father died and I had show tunes played at his funeral.Because when we were working in Africa...the darn church dropped them from the membership for non "dues" payments. We played show tunes and had a Masonic service. I give the "woke"church no loyalty now. However I did have a first special service for two of my childrens's bapstisms...Lutheran and Catholic. Requiring special dispensations etc. from the churches here in USA. Dropped membership for being out of country ? So much for the Lutherans !! While overseas we supported the christian services ministry that bravely travelled the area. Churches need to stop being political !!!

[@61mrmusicman]

Goodness gracious, what an entrance! Notice however, the choir processes and the congregation sings to the sounds of the Aeolian organ in the front. I still get goose bumps when the organist turns on that monster 32' reed at the last verse of Jesus Christ is Risen Today. Would that I had been there, what an instrument, what a sound. May it keep on being played for another 100 years.

[@jman8040]

Hopefully

[@barbarametzger7426]

[@michaelbell8834]

Funny thing about the Aeolian organ: It was plagarized....stop for stop and scaling for scaling from Ernest Skinner's installation at Princeton, which Ralph Downes and G. Donald Harrison destroyed only a few years after it's installation in the late 20's. The only difference at Duke was the removal of the Echo division in favor of the Flentrop in the 1970's. At at time when most instruments such as the Aeolian headed for the scrap heap, it's amazing that Duke kept it more or less intact. When Foley Baker restored it, the few tonal alterations to it were reversed and today, minus the Echo, it remains as Aeolian's last, and arguably best organ.

[@principals16842]

The first three verses of Christ the Lord is Risen Today were played by Dr. Parkins on the Flentrop, located on a balcony between the narthex and the nave where it replaced the original Aeolian Echo and Antiphonal divisions. Dr. Arcus picked up the last verse on the Aeolian in the chancel with that decidedly healthy 32' Bombarde and finished the second hymn. I'm with you on the goose bumps! Michael's response is spot-on regarding the history and legacy of the Duke Aeolian. I sometimes wonder whether John Mander ever visited Duke when his firm restored the much-altered Skinner at Princeton in the 1990s.

[@shawnking616]

Listen real hard and the 32 is on the whole time it’s so deep and the church is shaking lol it’s so beautiful omg

"Christ the Lord Is Risen Today" Text: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Music: Lyra Davidica, 1708 Tune: EASTER HYMN United Methodist Hymnal #302 Christ the Lord is risen today, Alleluia! Earth and heaven in chorus say, Alleluia! Raise your joys and triumphs high, Alleluia! Sing, ye heavens, and earth reply, Alleluia! Love's redeeming work is done, Alleluia! Fought the fight, the battle won, Alleluia! Death in vain forbids him rise, Alleluia! Christ has opened paradise, Alleluia! Lives again our glorious King, Alleluia! Where, O death, is now thy sting? Alleluia! Once he died our souls to save, Alleluia! Where's thy victory, boasting grave? Alleluia! Soar we now where Christ has led, Alleluia! Following our exalted Head, Alleluia! Made like him, like him we rise, Alleluia! Ours the cross, the grave, the skies, Alleluia! "Thine Be the Glory" Lyrics: Edmund Louis Budry Music: George Frederick Handel Tune: MACCABEUS United Methodist Hymnal #308 Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son; Endless is the victory thou o'er death hast won. Angels in bright raiment rolled the stone away, Kept the folded grave-clothes where thy body lay. Thine be the glory, risen conquering Son; Endless is the victory thou o'er death hast won. Lo! Jesus meets thee, risen from the tomb; Lovingly he greets thee, scatters fear and gloom. Let the church with gladness hymns of triumph sing, For our Lord now liveth; death hath lost its sting. Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son; Endless is the victory thou o'er death hast won. No more we doubt thee, glorious Prince of life! Life is naught without thee; aid us in our strife. Make us more than conquerors, through thy deathless love; Bring us safe through Jordan to thy home above. Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son; Endless is the victory thou o'er death hast won.
