Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring | The Tabernacle Choir

Listen to The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square sing, Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring, aired on January 22, 2023.
Lyrics
1. Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring
Holy wisdom, love most bright
2. Drawn by Thee our souls aspiring
Soar to uncreated light
3. Word of God, our flesh that fashioned.
With the fire of life impassioned.
Striving still to truth unknown
Soaring, dying round Thy throne
4. Through the way where hope is guiding,
Hark, what peaceful music rings.
5. Where the flock in Thee confiding,
Drink of joy from deathless springs.
6. Theirs is beauty’s fairest pleasure,
Theirs is wisdom’s holiest treasure.
Thou dost ever lead Thine own,
In the love of joys unknown.

Bach once said that "any music who doesn't worship or honor God is just noise."Now I understand why.

[@bmelvin1234]

I read this was composed specifically for church

[@mckenziepictures]

The actual quote is very similar to what you said... “The aim and final reason of all music should be none else but the glory of God and refreshing the soul. Where this is not observed there will be no music, but only a devilish hubbub.”-Johann Sebastian Bach Thank you for giving an excellent, modern perspective.

[@jvtv1234]

I can listen to this beautiful song a thousand times and still get tickled silly. They played this at my wedding while I walked down the aisle.

[@user-bs8je8zu4e]

Jesus is my Lord and Saviour. ✝️

[@maximusvonce1381]

One day i will join my beautiful mother and father in heaven and sing this to God.

[@rr7firefly]

What a beautiful thought. Knowing that there is something so wonderful waiting for you. I think that if more people had your vision there would be a dramatic improvement in our lives.

[@Little_Susie]

Some of the singers in the choir have tears in there eyes because this piece of music is so emotional and beautiful. I love this piece of song.

[@mariemorgan2524]

The first time I heard this hymn, I played and replayed it about 20 times. My whole being was transformed in a heavenly environment. What a great gift to humanity.

[@AnsonSavage]

I couldn't have said it better, this composition is a gift to humanity.

[@serralheriaoliveira3664]

Parabéns Bach pela música de inspiração Divina pra mim está é a mais bela música de todos os tempos....

[@cherylmarie49]

I to am addicted to the pipe organ since I was 11 years old I’m 76 now !

[@The_Amazing_King_Orion_YT]

Im 15 and I love the organ

[@noegarridocardenas7962]

Happy 338th birthday J.S. Bach!!!

[@itstobystic]

This is beyond human. How does the human mind even compose this beauty?

[@maximusvonce1381]

It was composed by Bach through God's inspiration

[@OmnipotentEnt]

Autism and strong technical skills in composition. That isn't a knock on Bach, his mind created some of the greatest pieces of music we will ever have.

[@dst0212]

Von Johann Sebastian Bach, den größten Kirchenmusiker der Welt

[@dst0212]

Schade das "jesum bleibet meine Freude" nicht auf Deutsch, Bachs Muttersprache, gesungen wird. Trotzdem sehr schön, Danke

[@SF-dd3tb]

Bach❤

[@richardneedham13]

There is no other choir that even compares!

[@vittoriolancia5365]

I am not a believer. But I still have to ask, "What is it about us that such exquisite music is created and moves us so deeply?" I just have no answer.

[@ConfusedFjord-im2vi]

The first time i heard this marvelous music was when i played it in highschool band. I played tuba and was so taken i cried. The band director had to start over several times because we had a hard time playing it. The notes arn't hard ,the melody is so beautiful and the chords so melodious that you live the music. Mr. Bach was certainly Devinely led.

[@omitogunayodeji4173]

Well done Mormon Tabernacle choir 🙏🙏🙏

[@user-sz8lo3zh4u]

This work was composed by God. He chose Bach to deliver the message.

[@sosexymagazinerobinwatkins8467]

🙌🏾🙌🏾 HALLELUJAH!

[@ralphhenry5063]

And it was a beautiful message!

[@user-qf2qx9dp2h]

Most beautiful, perfectly modulated piece of music ever composed❤

[@pamelakellman7321]

Simply beautiful, Jesus is truly our joy and the desire of our hearts.

[@roserichmond-nkosi9026]

Greetings from South Africa . I always come back to this heavenly work. As we celebrate the "Solemnity of Christ the King" in the Catholic calendar, the Cathedral Christ the King in Johannesburg welcomes you to this heart- throbbing, tearing music. Thanks for sharing this rendition by the spectacular Tabernacle choir accompanied by an equally amazing orchestra.❤

[@petracarolus193]

I am also from South Africa. God is so amazing to bless people with such talent. Blessed Advent season 🙏

[@claudiomarcelosilva1087]

All great artists actually channel inspiration from above according to the talents they worked to develop in this life. Some do it very early and effortlessly. And the really great ones like Bach recognize they are just well tuned instruments in the hands of a prodigious Maker

[@annjoyce579]

Heaven -- sounds as this.

[@silviaLl.2023]

Esta música te eleva a otra Dimensión....Es belleza en Estado Puro...❤🎶🎼🎻🥁

[@jackilynpyzocha662]

I heard this at a Mass in Holyoke MA and was transfixed with it's beauty, decades ago!

[@christopherdenniston9013]

That Bach dude was some guy...wonderful rendition

[@codex3048]

Hard to believe mere humans can write and play something this beautiful.

[@terryslade6240]

Bach was an absolute genius! He's called the Father of Music for a number of reasons.

[@dougkeiser9559]

I don't believe a mere human did.
