@joenwayne Hello. You are more than welcome. I look forward to watching and listening to more of your beautiful videos. I have a question. Do you have any videos of the song "Crown Him With Many Crowns?"

Thanks

what are some of the words to this hymn? I have a hard time making them out on this video. I reconize this hymn from my lutheran church, but what comes after the rejoice, rejoice part?

Dear Joewany, Peace and Grace, I cry when I see such a beautiful song so my wish, dream is a day I have a organ to praise the Lord, but I can´t ... I hope that God touches the heart of a Christian and help me buy a organ, I live in Brazil I´m Luterno

im wondering im baptist and our words in the hymnal are all different than the ones posted

[joenwayne]

Hi,

This hymn text was originally written in 1865 for a festival in England at Peterborough Cathedral. In order to get all of the many participants in, it originally contained 11 stanzas! Most hymnals now use about 4 of the original. Hymnal editors make the decision as to which stanzas they use. The text is based on Psalm 20:4, Psalm 147:1, and Philippians 4:4.

Thanks for viewing and your comments.

WONDERFUL!!!!

Thank you VERY much for introducing me to this hymn. We dont sing many good hymns like this one in the Baptist church anymore.

Thanks and GOD bless you!!!

Im wondering, if you could do a view for a prossecional hymn like you did on: J. S. Bach, Louré, on historic pipe organ.

Because, Im curious about how fast they are moving and such

:)

Most Baptist Churches! The Baptist church I used to play at had 3 hymnals and sang all of the songs in all 3 of them. Sometimes to my own chagrin. :D

[octavebasse8]

We have 1 hymnal, and "sing off the wall."

Its sad.

[jpwsml]

That is kinda sad. I hate wall projectors! We have one at one of my posts, and it comes down in front of a swell chamber. It makes people forget how to "read" music in the hymnal. I hate how some churches get into singing only like 20 hymns and ignore the rest of them. AAUUUGHHH!

[octavebasse8]

Do we attend the same church?! Because, you just described mine perfectly!

[jpwsml]

Ha, well lets get busy educating our congregations before they forget all the great old hymns! :D

[cornwall59]

The tune is called "Marion", written by

Arthur Henry Messiter (1834-1916).

The words by Edward H. Plumptre (1821-1891), Anglican priest, professor of theology at Oxford, for a Choral Festival at Peterborough Cathedral in 1865.
