Nice rendition.. Please keep singing for our Lord.. He needs us more than ever now in this era of the antiChrist..

[@kimberlymaldonado9220]

Technixally God doesn't need to rely on anybody or anything for Him to accomplish His blessed will; but He does wants us, as His chosen people, to remain faithful to Him, to persevere, to continue to abide in Him as we patiently endure all the harships and trails and wait for His eminent and soon return.

[@clementbretanno1116]

@@kimberlymaldonado9220 I'm sorry while God can do anything He still wants us to do His will here on earth. Please see how God longs us to help the needy and the unfortunate.(full chapter Matthew 25:31-46, the Last Judgement). +++Matthew 25:41-46 (NET) “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you accursed, into the eternal fire that has been prepared for the devil and his angels! For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink. I was a stranger and you did not receive me as a guest, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.’ Then they too will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not give you whatever you needed?’ Then he will answer them, ‘I tell you the truth, just as you did not do it for one of the least of these, you did not do it for me.’ And these will depart into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”

[@kimberlymaldonado9220]

Absolutely, I agree with what you have responded. I am sorry for not explaining well what I meant by 'God doesn't need'. I mean that He is all sufficient in Himself and able to accomplish all that He proposes to happend even the events that proceed to Christ second coming. It's true that God DOES requiere us, His chosen people, to be faithful and obey Him. This includes sharing the Gospel to all creatures both to the lost and to the redeemed. To the lost in hope for their salvation and to the ones that are already saved for their growth and development to be conformed in Christ image. I know that we all ought to be doing and be about our heavenly Father's bitting. What I mean here is that He does not need us in the sense that He is totally depended on us to do something for Him. He doesn’t need anybody nor depend on anyone. But He does require of us to be faithful and obedient to His Word. Not because He needs it but for our good and sanctification. Sorry for the long text. It didn't have to be so. For some reason I just felt like addressing it. Not for the sake of seeking a fight but to help one another to better see God as how He's revealed in Scripture. Though may this not be the cause of a fight or to be bitter against one another. Though I don't know who you are, you are still a dear brother in Christ. I desire the best for you in Christ. Would love to talk more about God and see as to how He has grown us and mature us in Christ.

I’m putting it down now that you’re gonna hit the whole hymn book, keep up the great work. It’s really nice to be able to listen to each part individually without any instruments, everyone else has to do it some organ or background band 😑

Haha... My goal is to do this as long as I'm physically and mentally able. There may be weeks or months when I can't record and edit videos due to other things going on in my life or career. But until my voice and eyesight can't take it anymore, this will be my hobby. So that gives me another 40 years or so worth of hymns. 😂

Comments have never been turned off on my videos so maybe your internet connection was too slow to load them? And if everything looks fuzzy to you now but didn't before, it's definitely your internet connection that is the problem. I don't know what "...it wasn't written like this then" means.

THE STORY BEHIND THE HYMN; THE LILY OF THE VALLEY In 1881, Charles Fry was inspired by the imagery in the Song of Solomon. I am the rose of Sharon, and the lily of the valleys. As the lily among thorns, so is my love among the daughters. As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among the sons. I sat down under his shadow with great delight, and his fruit was sweet to my taste. He brought me to the banqueting house, and his banner over me was love. Song of Solomon 2:1-4 After reading these words of scripture, Mr. Fry sat down and wrote about a personal, intimate relationship with Jesus. Those words became the hymn, The Lily of the Valley. The song was first published in the Dec. 29th, 1881 edition of The War Cry, the Salvation Army national magazine. Mr. Fry declared he had found a friend in Jesus. He compared the “Beloved” in Song of Solomon to Jesus as the lily of the valley. One commentary explains “Undoubtedly, this lily of the valley symbolizes the sweetness, purity, fruitfulness, humility, and healing qualities of Jesus Christ. Fry could see only in Jesus all he needed to be cleansed and be made fully whole. He declared that Jesus was his comfort in sorrow and in trouble because Jesus has told him to roll every care on Him for He cares. Jesus is indeed “the Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star, He’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.” lily of the valley So who was Charles Fry? He was born May 30, 1838 in Aldersbury, Wiltshire, England as William Charles Fry. He followed in his father’s footsteps and became a bricklayer by trade. However he was a versatile musician, playing the violin, cello, piano, cornet, and harmonium, and leading an orchestra and band at the Wesleyan chapel in Alderbury. Mr. Fry did not like the abuse he saw heralded at the Salvation Army when they established a ministry in 1878 Salisbury, where the Fry family lived and worked. Mr. Fry and his three sons offered to serve as bodyguards for the Salvation Army workers. Salvation Army band The next day the four men arrived with their weapons. These weapons consisted of two cornets, a trombone and a small tuba. In between fighting off the troublemakers, the Fry men played. Their music attracted crowds for the preachers. This was the first Salvation Army Brass Band. Mr. Fry and his sons continued to work for the Salvation Army and it was during this time that he wrote the Lily of the Valley. Ira Sankey stated in his autobiography, “Mr. Fry is one of the leaders of the Salvation Army in London. In addition to writing the words, he also set the hymn to music, and later arranged it to slower time and published it in Gospel Hymns.” The tune was adapted from the song Little Old Log Cabin. Charles Fry died the year after writing his popular hymn on August 24, 1882 in Park Hall, Polmont, Stirlingshire, Scotland.

Malachi 3:5-6 5 And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers, and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not me, saith the Lord of hosts. 6 For I am the Lord, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed. Jeremiah 25: 1-14 1 The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah king of Judah, that was the first year of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; The which Jeremiah the prophet spoke unto all the people of Judah, that was the first year of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; 2 The which Jeremiah the prophet spoke unto all the people of Judah, and to all inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying, 3 From the thirteenth year of Josiah the son of Amon King of Judah, even unto this day, that is the three and twentieth year, the word of the lord hath come unto me, and I have spoken unto you, rising early and speaking; but ye have not hearkened. 4 And the Lord hath sent unto you all his servants and prophets, rising early and sending them; but ye have not hearkened, nor inclined your ear to hear. 5 They said, Turn ye again now every one from his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell in the land that the Lord hath given unto you and to your fathers for ever and ever. 6 And go not after other gods to serve them, and to worship them, and provoke me not to anger with the works of your hands; and I will do you no hurt. 7 Yet ye have not hearkened unto me, saith the Lord; that ye might provoke me to anger with the works of your hands to your own hurt. 8 Therefore thus saith the Lord of hosts; Because ye have not heard my words, 9 Behold, I will send and take all the families of the north, saith the Lord, and Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against the inhabitants thereof, and against all these nations round about, and will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and a hissing, and perpetual desolations. 10 Moreover I will take from them the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the sound of millstones, and the light of the candle. 11 And this whole land shall be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years. 12 And it shall come to pass, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon, and that nation, saith the Lord, for their iniquity, and the land of the Chaldeans, and will make it perpetual desolations. 13 And I will bring upon that land all my words which I have pronounced against it, even all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah hath prophesied against all the nations. 14 for many nations and great kings shall serve themselves of them also: and I will recompense them according to their deeds, and according to the works of their own hands. Jeremiah 25:30-33 30 Therefore prophecy thou against them all these words, and say unto them, The Lord shall roar from on high, and utter his voice from his holy habitation; he shall give a shout, as they that tread the grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth. 31 A noise shall come even to the ends of the earth; for the Lord hath a controversy with the nations, he will plead with all flesh; he will give them that are wicked to the sword, saith the Lord. 32 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall be raised from the coasts of the earth. 33 And the slain of the Lord shall be at that day from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth: they shall not be lamented, neither gathered, nor buried; they shall be dung upon the ground. Hebrews 13:8 8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and forever. Matthew 13:41-43 41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; 42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. 43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
