Still, Still with Thee (Beautiful, Rare Hymn with piano & flute)

A beautiful rare hymn with piano and flute
The melody was written by Felix Mendelssohn, a German composer and pianist (1809-1847).
Lyrics by Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811-1896) best known for her writings as the author of Uncle Tom’s Cabin. What a rare combination of musicality and poetry combined, created to bring you comfort and joy. Blessings, ~h~
"Still, still with Thee, when purple morning breaketh,
When birds awake, and the shadows flee;
Fairer than morning, lovelier than daylight,
Dawns the sweet consciousness I am with Thee.
2 Alone with Thee amid the mystic shadows,
The solemn hush of nature newly born;
Alone with Thee in breathless adoration,
In the calm dew and freshness of the morn.
3 Still, still with Thee! as to each newborn morning
A fresh and solemn splendor still is given,
So does this blessed consciousness, awaking,
Breathe each day nearness unto Thee and heaven.
4 When sinks the soul, subdued by toil, to slumber,
Its closing eyes look up to Thee in prayer;
Sweet the repose beneath Thy wings o'ershading,
But sweeter still, to wake and find Thee there.
5 So shall it be at last, in that bright morning,
When the soul waketh, and life's shadows flee;
O in that hour, fairer than daylight dawning,
Shall rise the glorious thought, I am with Thee."
Amen.

Beautiful piano playing accompanied by the flute. Simply lovely!

[@heidiloveshymns]

Thank you Elizabeth. I'd never heard it so simply like this, with piano and flute. Thank you for your encouragement. Blessings,~h~

[@BuniDawn]

Heidi, that is SOOOOOO beautiful. I have never heard it before. I've listened twice straight away. The Lord knew that it's exactly what I needed as I start another day so I praise His name for sending it via your piano (& flute AND the owls!, my special bird) right on time. Thank you for this wonderful ministry 🙏🙏🙌

[@heidiloveshymns]

Awe, thank you for your comment. This hymn touched my heart too. I hadn't heard it for many years, ever with piano and flute. Owls are special birds. God must have had great delight when He created them. Feel free to share these hymns (especially with all your other "owl-loving" friends). Blessings, ~h~

I don’t think I have ever heard it either Heidi but the words were meaningful!

[@heidiloveshymns]

Thanks Phyllis, and one day it will make it's way on to a selection of best loved "Funeral Hymns"...~h~

[@PhyllisHarpe]

I don’t think I have ever heard it either Heidi but the words are very meaningful and of course your piano playing is so soothing!

[@heidiloveshymns]

Thank you Phyllis. Nice to be able to introduce a new hymn to you. I found some notes on it the other day... It's been tucked in my heart for a long time. ~h~
