George Beverly Shea How Great Thou Art

[@vidmaster7]

May God grant peace and strength to the family of George Beverly Shea who today entered the heaven he sang about for decades at the age of 104. Thank you for your faithful ministry to so many.

[@robertoverstreet4852]

I was at Madison Square Garden in 1957 when George Beverly Shea sang How Great Thou Art. I was on my way to serve as a missionary in Mali Republic, West Africa, where I served with my wife for over 44 years. From the time I was saved as a senior in HS in Kansas City, MO, in 1951 through YFC I have followed the BGEA. Only heaven will tell of all who have been blessed through the Billy Graham team as they've labored for the Lord. God be praised: Robert Dean Overstreet: WatchmenOfTheKing

[@Peachy-keen-y1b]

My dad's favorite song

[@katielove9932]

I went to two different Baptist churches in the bible belt, and requested of each minister to have the congregation sing this song for the benefit of everyone. They wouldn't do it. Yet, I hear the audience and a famous singer singing it on KZbin whenever I want to hear it. God is Great!

[@thegreatestofalltime9437]

When a man can get an entire room to sing with him, you know he’s one of the best. God bless this man. Rest In Peace my friend

[@writemyselfaletter]

Amen....one of the world's great men and as humble as he could be.

[@ArthurPaul-h9v]

Tears come to my eyes when I listen to this song.

[@neilwesley6873]

Amen ❤🙏

[@ser132]

RIP Bev. I grew up listening to him sing, and today he's singing for God in Heaven. How Awesome!

[@cpmffeilberg4970]

My mom just passed away 2 days ago and my prayer during her lengthy illness was that she find my God and be able to sing How great Thou Art along with Mr . Shea. Mom I pray you will R.i.p. with Jesus.

[@Delawareboy31]

Wow over 100 years old and still going strong for JESUS. I remember growing up in the 80s and back then I was made to sit and watch him on the Billy Graham gospel hour,but now in my 30s how I cherish those days. JESUS your awesome in all You do.

[@Iva.the.Southern.Appalachian]

2:10 "When CHRIST shall come, with shout of acclimation, and take me home, what JOY shall fill my heart! Then I shall bow, in humble adoration, and there proclaim, my GOD how GREAT thou art!!!!!!!" -George Beverly Shea. I remember you being the guest speaker at my high school graduation 10 years ago on June 1, 2003. You sang this song and I felt my entire future burning bright in front of me. You are now with my Papaw, whom you were friends with, and I know you are both in the Heavenly Choir!

[@vincentbriegel7038]

When I was a wee lad my parents took us to the Los Angeles Collesieum to hear the Rev. Billy Graham

[@pattiallen1115]

This song overwhelmed me and captured my heart to God as a teenager ! 78 yrs. of blessings !

[@RedneckBubba19]

Patti Allen Awesome! God bless you! ❤️

[@jinu03]

RIP Bro. George Beverly Shea... ! What a privilege for all of us to be able to hear you... ! But once again for long time.. we will hear your great voice glorifying God.. up in heaven. Miss you..! May His peace befall on us all.. at this time.

[@bootmender]

I have had the honor of being in the audience at a Billy Graham crusade when he sang this song!

[@cathymclearnon2972]

Today my eyes fill with tears of joy, to know that you are now in the presence of our Lord and Savior and can sing that song TO HIM, face to face! Thank you for your service to our Savior and the beauty and inspiration you brought into our lives with your songs

[@cindybuffington2986]

There will never be a person who could even touch this song as heaven's newest angel in the choir.

[@keithpruitt1497]

This man was a true legend in gospel music. We will miss him. May his reward be grand. Thank you for so many wonderful memories.

[@twowheelingtom]

RIP Bro George Beverly Shea, you have been such a blessing to me and my family as I remember my grand daddy, grand ma, and my daddy, who have all gone to heaven now, sing these very words so many times. Tell them all high as ya'll all sing together for Jesus and the Angels! This world is not my home, I'm just a passing through! God Bless you all!

[@Diansaquing]

Watching him sing happily in his old age is a very wonderful testimony that our GOD is really great! I can't help but cry because I feel so blessed just by watching him sing of GOD's power and greatness..not only to HIS life but among all of us! To GOD be all the glory!

[@robertagabor3736]

No opera singer in the world could bring own the house like George Beverly shea. His songs cause us to worship the Lord with all our heart. Such a joyful crowd.

[@2mmedley]

Long story short, this song got me through 12 weeks Marine Corps bootcamp and 12 months in jungles of Viet Nam as a scout sniper! Thank you for posting it.

[@dcameron1382]

George left us 10 years ago on Sunday April 16, 2023. Continue to celebrate and listen to this very great man.

[@CindyKoeppel]

Halluleah! At that age he still could be bless with that wonderful voice

[@floydsuke]

I met George in the 70s. My twin and I were with Cliff Barrows for a week at a church in Atlanta. Cliff Preached each night and we did 2 or 3 songs . George came in one night of the meeting and sang. Most people are not aware that Cliff is a fantastic preacher . Every one thinks he just leads the music for the Big crusades. Both George and Cliff are just down home humble fellows and working with them was a highlight of all our years in music ministry. Thanks for sharing this video !! - FLOYD

[@bpabustan]

Man he is 103 and his voice is still strong and full! This man is truly blessed.

[@TYOUNG0168]

May our Heavenly Father greet George into his Kingdom and grant his family Peace, Strength and Comfort. Thank You George..... You've blessed so many...

[@Tocsin-Bang]

I only ever had the pleasure of hearing George Beverly Shea live once, at QPR football stadium when I was a steward. One of the greatest experience of my life.

[@faylucile1]

Bev Shea is singing face to face with his Lord tonight. What a concert is going on in the Heavenly choir! Thank you to our God for blessing us with Bev's ministry all these years.

[@barbararichmond2167]

This song has been the most inspirational song in my life since I was a kid.

[@JxT1957]

RIP George :( my favorite gospel singer

[@GooglFascists]

George Beverly Shea is 102 now and going strong! Still singing for Jesus. There is still hope for America while Saints like this are still among us. We are on the verge of the greatest WORLDWIDE REVIVAL the Earth has ever experienced. Pray for 5 BILLION SOULS FOR CHRIST!

[@carolynsmith7798]

Beautiful, always beautiful. My Dad's favorite.

[@jorgemac42]

Bro. George Beverly Shea, The One and Only!!!! Generations were blessed with this extraordinary voice.

[@mellod2954]

Not only a great church but a great orchestra too. Lifting us in worship to almighty God. Thank you. Melanie in England.

[@dragoncat1834]

If this song does not touch your heart, you dont have one.

[@albertogston858]

I am from Scotland love to hear singing

[@andy164501]

Amazing example of a failing human being using the incredible gift God gave him for HIS glory, not his own. My parents played this man's records growing up and his voice was always my fav.

[@susanhayes3949]

Meant so much to me in my teenage years attended the Billy Graham Crusades in Wollongong NSW Australia. My Mum was a councillor and I enjoyed singing along with George Beverly Shea and the choir. He is a wonderful testament to his friend Billy Graham and his everlasting faith in Jesus Christ.

[@marionhudson4477]

I love that song. RIP.

[@michaelwestbrook5288]

I've got another 30 years before I get near Bev Shea in age, but will never get anywhere near his wonderful gospel ministry record. What a true & faithful servant. Amen.

[@arejayseeottawa]

Saw George perform here in Ottawa, Canada (just north of his birthplace of Winchester, Canada) in 1998, warming up those assembled to see and hear Billy Graham preach. What a man & what a singer! He certainly lived a good, long life! George Beverly Shea, R.I.P.

[@blitzwaffe]

By golly, his voice is still resonant and wonderful at this age. I couldn't sing for my own life! God bless this man for his dedication.

[@Mainlandheathen1]

Your voice was that of a strong lovely angel. I grew up watching and respecting both you and the Rev. Graham. Turning into an old man myself now. I will see you in heaven Mister Shea.

[@bernicejohnson6126]

So glade that my Family & I knew this wonderful God free man.

[@RANJO517]

I Remember (As A Boy) The First Time I Heard This. It Gave Me Goose-Bumps Then As It Does Today. Give Your Heart To JESUS CHRIST Today, Before Time Runs Out. Jesus Loves You, Died For You and Wants to Spend Eternity With You.

[@RANJO517]

Thank You

[@pattieprophet7987]

AMEN !!!! ❤

[@johnsteiner1488]

Honor thy father and mother that thy days may be long.

[@kathleenmarion]

He has cumulatively sang for over 220 million people in his lifetime. What an amazing man and great choir director. I was blessed to be among hundreds in the choir when Billy Graham came to San Diego years ago. I will always remember how Beverly Shea was so encouraging and uplifting in our rehearsals with him. Definitely a highlight of my life!

[@billbright1755]

One may feel their voice not worthy to lift in song,, but to your your Lord it is the most beautiful sound in heaven. “ by golly, that kid might make it after all! “ Though the years may have turned the hair as white as snow, the hopes of a young boy still live.

[@richardbrianprickett9212]

My late wife brought back The Beautiful Garden of Prayer record by George Beverly Shea back from America in 1958 and is still being played. The voice is beautiful and his recording of How Great Thought Art tops every thing I remember hearing my wife singing it in 1959 and it brought me to accept Jesus.

[@RedneckBubba19]

Richard Brian Prickett Wow, that sounds like a wonderful story. Truly, the Lord only knows how many people were lead to Christ through his songs, but every one is special! May I ask what country you are from?

[@richardbrianprickett9212]

[@robbiaguirre9114]

I love this song. It honors our father God. So pretty. Thanks George. Bless our God. Caroline

[@davidmorley4]

103 Years old and still having a ball! Amazing!

[@BLFulle]

I'm sure today he has heard the words "Well done my good and faithful servant". A voice like that is a gift from God and he shared that gift with us.

[@BRICKIEREPORT]

you go george i played this song at my moms funeral. only a couple other people in the room really got what this songs really means to some people.

[@bigcraig29]

RIP George! it was probably my favorite thing to ever do in church band, transitioning from Charlie Hall's "Marvelous Light" into this awesome song... this dude was a blessing for 104 years, and will continue to be for many more years because of his music!

[@kennyhouser9052]

This was my moms favorite singer!

[@OneCookie8014]

Finally someone who can sing it properly

[@nomthandazoxekethwane3990]

Oh no !what a song by someone this old.My living God bless everything this grandpa passed by

[@mw1best]

saw him on TV in 1957...still singing powerfully!

[@ronasears6761]

I love George Beverly Shea!!!

[@1927Norma]

One of the true last Lions for Christ...awesome. 104 years old when he died...I am in awe and humbled. We are all ONE in Christ Jesus.

[@michaelmyang]

He just went to heaven today. God bless him!!!!

[@donlosu9371]

Awesome!

[@normanriches0516]

Wonderful Man,

[@yvonnedixon2721]

George Beverly Shea was a man that walked with God all the way. R.I.P The music will go on

[@1927Norma]

This is humbling that he or anyone could sing at his age and still have a very amazing voice. He holds the record in music history in general of the longest living live performer. No one has broken that record yet and I doubt Madonna or others in pop music ever will. Great song and a great singer. See you one day sir..I will be humbled and honored.

[@kawllian70]

WoW, this song is always new Amen

[@prithvirajjs6397]

What a wonderful gospel singer, now departed from here to heaven. Singing praises unto God there I believe.

[@stera52]

Haven't heard his rendition in many years. This song was on the song list, at church, this past Sunday, which reminded me. It's still magnificent! God has graced us with Mr. Shea!

[@1967Leather]

The greatest thing about Mr. Shea is not that he was a wonderful gospel singer. Undoubtedly, he was. Rather, the greatest thing about this man, who has now gone home to be with the Lord, is this: For something on the order of 70 or 80 years, Mr. Shea faithfully served his God in ministry. THAT, is Mr. Shea's lasting legacy to the body of Christ.

[@rightpatch1]

Scott Adkins YES, he travelled all over the world with the Rev. Billy Graham, singing GOD's praises, and spreading the Word !! Thank you, George, and rest in peace !!

[@SarahPullenShehadeh]

He was a family friend. He was truly a great man of God and a great musician.

[@HUKOVAU]

so it is important to make it clear to our elderly loved ones that we need them in spite of their weakness.

[@kathleenlovallo5049]

My most favorite song of all time,I love it.
