Although my dear husband recently passed from Alzheimer’s, it was music such as this most evenings that soothed my soul and helped me continue caring for him. I continue to find peace in sacred music in his absence. I know he is safe and well cared for and his suffering has been relieved.

“Abide in me?” 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!

Notice in the congregation that some people aren't singing. I would be one of those because I would be glorifying the sound of the organ like they are probably doing. Have this saved in a youtube file so that I can visit it when I am feeling a little depressed. It sure helps, for sure.

My hat off to the organist. He truly knows how to set the spirit in the room with his playing. Perfect registration of the stops. He never over powered the congregation. I loved how he slowly cut out and let the congregation sing alone and then came back in. I hope that I can some day learn to play like he does.

Dear Mike, please draw the conclusion that it is great poetically and compositionally because a wonderful God has given human beings the ability to hear and understand (to a degree) what is true, then to respond with their personal expression of how they apprehend this stuff which God has told us a lot about in Scriptures which have generally the same message.

@Paul Wilson I don't think so, chief. I don't need to buy into the narrative to be able to enjoy the accompanying art. At the end of the day, our self-consciousness (what you'd call "soul") is either mortal or immortal, and neither option requires a god nor is either option more desirable than the other. Let's just enjoy the song, huh!

Where, grave, thy victory? I triumph still, if Thou abide with me Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee In life, in death, o Lord, abide with me Abide with me, abide with me

I'm afraid that good organ playing may be a dying art. Most churches today either don't use their organs or they don't even have them anymore. Whole generations have grown up without learning to appreciate good organ music. Plus, playing the organ with both feet and both hands is hard! I played organ, but it was always a struggle to do it well.

​@@musiclover148 It is indeed, sir. Like Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church located in Florida and Grace Community Church located in Los Angeles, they use the organ for playing the hymns. I love the organ hymn. Because the sound of the organ is majestic, so I feel the holy spirit of the Lord.(Especially I love Ms. Diane Bish, who is the very famous organist in the United States of America.) Of course as what you said, playing the organ is hard and difficult. Nevertheless, I'm very thankful of you to strive to play the organ well. God will surely love you. And God bless you.

My heart soars when I see this, NOT just because of the organ and the acoustics. Look at the average age in the choir. Look at the average age in the congregation, and then compare that to contemporary styles of supposed worship. THIS is "Participatory Worship" with people singing in harmony, not entertainment and it DOES appeal to ALL ages. Churches are dying all over the place as they try to "Emulate" the music of a secular world. You know, the ones with the "Millennial Whoop", eg ooh ooh, ooh ooh; aah aah, aah aah; oh oh, oh oh; etc. The older faithfuls "hang in there" while detesting "un-singable" music where the meter of the words does not match the meter of the music. Those are fine for solo work but not for congregational singing. These old people grin and bear it until they all start dying off and the church closes it doors. Let me be clear. There is a time and a place for everything. The Bible tells us in Psalm 96 to Sing a New Song Unto the Lord. Michael W. Smith, Phillips Craig & Dean, Hillsong, Chris Tomlin, Casting Crowns, etc. can emotionally engage and bring me to tears for all the right reasons. However, most of our church musicians are NOT Michael W. Smith. I was recently speaking with a church Music Director and he indicated that studies have shown a world more hungry for a liturgical style of worship. They WANT the church to be something different. I grew up in an era of Rock & Roll, Classical, and Pop music BUT that doesn't mean that I hate the hymns of the church. Quite the contrary. We are called to "Be In The World, Not Of The World". Music can be such a blessing to the soul and its very often the words of a hymn, which come flooding back to bring us comfort. Many of those hymns reflect scripture directly and help us with scripture memory. Often we can recite the lyrics of several verses without thinking about it. How often does a hymn, sometimes hundreds of years old, come to mind as the pastor is preaching a sermon? Try that with contemporary arrangements that fade into obscurity very quickly as we wait for the NEXT big thing. During this time of pandemic, I know what songs I'll be singing in my heart, including the one presented in this video.

I heard someone say once... should the music at church be just like what we hear on the radio and TV,,, or should it be a relief from the secular genres and be filled with reverence? I say give me music like this but that's because it is what I grew up around. I do not care at all for contemporary worship,. it doesn't cause me to be reverent at all. But, we are not to be judge-mental, so if someone likes fog, concert lighting and excessive subwoofers, then as long as they worship God with it,,,, who are we to criticize? I think God doesn't care how we worship Him.

Thank you so much for this beautiful recording. Sitting here with my young children I can't help lamenting the decline of traditional hymns in today's churches. Here in Sydney, Australia - almost no child growing up in the church will get to enjoy the deep, worshipful and joyful experience that comes from congregational singing of this nature. Being the son of a church organist and being a church pianist myself, I feel deeply saddened by this phenomenon. We are bereft of churches in our area with traditional hymns and youth under the same roof. At our last church (Anglican), I was asked only once to play for the communion (I am a very experienced musician) and selected 2 beautiful arrangements of "There is a Green Hill Far Away" and "The Old Rugged Cross" instead of the usual Hillsong fare. After the service, there was an endless queue of folk of all ages thanking me for playing these hymns which took them back to their conversions and earlier days of worship. For years they had missed these hymns, lost to the 7/11/3 guitar squad (the same 7 words repeated 11 times over 3 chords...). :-) It was a very telling moment but nothing changed and we ended up leaving. Thank goodness for recordings like this so we and our children can join in with such profoundly beautiful and reverent congregational singing. End of rant! :-) God bless you and cheers from Australia - David

I'm Australian too. In my church in the 1950s, after evening service the young people went to someone's home for hymn-singing. When on a bus trip, we would look at the numberplate of the car in front, and start singing the hymn of that number in the Methodist Hymn Book. I can't get to church any more, but with all the changes I don't miss it so much. It is indeed a shame that young Christians today are possibly losing sight of their glorious hymnal heritage. My favourite hymn? O Thou Who Camest From Above, sung to Hereford. A Wesley "double": grandfather Charles' words, grandson Samuel Sebastian's tune. Kindle a fire of sacred love on the mean altar of my heart.

Lyrics: 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. [ Come not in terrors, as the King of kings; But kind and good, with healing in Thy wings: Tears for all woes, a heart for every plea; Come, Friend of sinners, thus abide with me. ] I need Thy presence every passing hour: What but Thy grace can foil the tempter’s power? Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be? Through cloud and sunshine, oh, 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. Hold Thou Thy cross before my closing eyes; Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies. Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee; In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me.

Oh my God we have so much work to do but when I hear this hymn and see all those flags above this congregation, I, a Buddhist, think: OK OK, maybe just we can redress the wrong and start a new republic because this old old one is just wearing us all out.

Alas! We must work this out on our own. I DO believe there is a centrist majority made up those "libtard snowflakes" and Ms Clinton's famous "deplorables" who still have a heart. We also have developed a strong will to pretty much start over again. If Joe Biden can just keep the POTUS chair nice n warm for 4 years so we can sort it out from the bottom up as a federal democracy (like yours), we may have a chance. Meanwhile: yes/oui! Namely, "help of the helpless oh abide with me." I hope against hope. Nothing but the best, James, to you-yours-your nation made of two great "founding peoples."

Indeed, in these days of "change and decay," we should meditate on God's faithfulness, and not only at funerals!
