Sorry about the double upload on this one. There were some melodic errors that needed to be fixed. Thanks for all of your kindness and support!

[@joyful_tanya]

Thank you Brother Elliot for always putting out quality parts in your recordings! A timely message in this hymn for all of us! ❤️

Did you have to re-do the whole thing or only one track? Natalie Raynes plays a lot by ear. She tells of her sister poking her with a bow hissing at her to stick to the harmonies written down, she wasn’t playing by herself.

[@markhenry659]

You should do will jesus find us watching?

[@acappellahymns]

RanRan0459 Thankfully I was able to go back and edit just that one little part.

[@acappellahymns]

Tanya Joy You're very welcome!

[@beeeeeeess4769]

I was getting ready for school this morning and I have been stressing over this project. I saw this song on my recommendation and it has given me encouragement for today. Thank you for putting this out. As a teen Christian it can be hard but just to know you’re not alone and other people are out there to encourage you is amazing!❤️

[@acappellahymns]

I'm glad I could help! 😁 Hope the project goes well. Trust in God, do your best, and everything will be just fine. ( :

[@h.harvey5416]

Amen fellow teenage brother/sister in Christ! It can seem hard a lot of times but I have found prayer overcomes anything. I'm still learning, but that I know! God bless.

[@keatonjenkins1305]

Amen and how did the project come together @beeeeeeeess4769

[@pampruett245]

I remember this from when I was a kid at 1212 West 6th Church Of Christ, Pine Bluff. Brother Tyler would always lead it. I miss those days. This is a great!

[@acappellahymns]

Glad I could bring back a wonderful old memory for you!

Oh my goodness. I am so happy to hear hymns from my childhood. Listening to the music and words bring me right into the presence of Jesus. Thanks so much for sharing these Acapella hymns.

[@turbyf1]

These harmonies simply resonate with the mind, heart, spirit, and soul as a Glory to God! May the Lord bless your lives and ministry.

Âmen great reminder we often let life trials and the tempter overcome us. When we are told to pray without ceasing

I am Hearing n-o errors just harmonies keep up the good work and God bless your life and your family Amen

[@TheGameRazorOffical]

I’ve been hearing this one coming up more commonly recently. I’m actually glad because it was one of those that I read the words and tried to follow the music; I liked it but couldn’t get it down

[@acappellahymns]

Glad I could help! This is one I didn't know before and it has a couple of melodic and harmonic parts that felt different to me. I had to practice it and still didn't get it right the first time around! ( :

James 4:8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.

[@acappellahymns]

While I always appreciate people sharing scripture in the comment section, it's also nice to have their thoughts on why they chose a particular scripture or explain how it applies to the song. Your thoughts?

[@Sugarput1]

😇😇😇🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️👍

[@neilwhatmough537]

GOOD QUESTION, GOOD ADVICE Beautiful! Singing was fist in the Bible when Israel was redeemed out of slavery No record of angels singing in the Bible No other creature besides humans can sing in harmony. Reply

[@GeorgeOsafo-ot1ek]

Thanks Brother in the Lord! I like your recordings very much. I am a brother of the Nsawam Church of Christ, Ghana. I wish to ask if you could bless me with softcopy of the shape note scores of your songs (in any format at all). I help in song teaching and leading but I am now learning finale and I am unable to make the shape notes of the songs

[@hersonrodolfoarevalohernan6806]

God Bless you, thank you for the Blessings of this recording. I was wondering where I would be able to download a copy of this?

[@peterwarner358]

Do you have a version of Earth and All Stars (HYMN TUNE DEXTER) by David N. JOHNSON that you could perform?

[@acappellahymns]

Not sure I know that one but I'll look into it.

[@keatonjenkins7351]

How are you now ?😇😇 and if you are good with it what is your real name 🙏

[@willgraham8878]

Too many ads!!! Are you in need of Money? 1 ad at the beginning and 1 at the end would be Enough!!

[@acappellahymns]

There should be no reason for ads in the middle of my videos. I can confidently say that I do not have mid-roll ads on my videos. This is a direct quote from KZbin's monetization page - "Only videos longer than 8 minutes are eligible for ads during video." If you are seeing ads in the middle of any of my videos (which is very improbable), then there is some sort of glitch in the system that is beyond my control. Even if I *could* put ads in the middle of my videos, I would not do that.

[@willgraham8878]

@@acappellahymns Thank you for your response!! Sorry if I sounded on edge but I get frustrated when I'm immersed in the sublime beauty of a Christian hymn and all of a sudden an ad comes in. I think they may have been after a song is completed but there were ads in the middle of the whole video. Maybe they added them later. Maybe some viewers see them and others don't. I really don't know. Thanks for posting these lovely hymns in any event!!!

[@acappellahymns]

You're welcome for the response. I'm not sure why an ad would be in the middle of one of my videos since it's not technically possible. But with anything technological, glitches can happen. I hope you don't experience any more of them.

[@nessawright6246]

That was harsh. Thankfully, there was only two ads at the beginning and they came one after the other.
