there are not many songs that will bring tears to a old soldiers eyes ,but this one does i had the honor to escort the body of a fallen soldier (from my platoon) home and they (his family)had the local high school band play it at the grave side
Beste Andre: Stel ik lig morgen onder een bus of ren tegen een boom of krijg een ander ongeluk, zou je dan dit op mijn begrafenis willen komen spelen? (niet dat ik van plan ben om dood te gaan, maar toch je weet 't nooit ;))
Met vriendelijke groet, Astrid.
p.s graag zou ik niet overdreven over willen komen (hihi) :)
@chris19491 You have my deepest sympathy. They played my dad's favorite song at his funeral in 2004 "How great thou art." To this day if we sing it in church, I burst into tears, and I am now 45.
this is my first song i learned on violin :) on my first month not even :D then my second song I learned was Brahms waltz :) i am going to be great like him..
Almighty God we commend the soul of our brother departed, and we commit his body to the deep; in sure and certain hope of the Resurrection unto eternal life, through our Lord Jesus Christ; at whose coming in glorious majesty to judge the world, the sea shall give up her dead; and the corruptible bodies of those who sleep in him shall be changed, and made like unto his glorious body; according to the mighty working whereby he is able to subdue all things unto himself.
I sung this song with the Sunday congregation in my grandma house in Jakarta, in the fifties... I always remember her and her beautiful heart and her passing away...when I hear this song...This is her favorite. Thank you Andre, thank you Antonio
@scaleop4 You're in prayer, sir. You don't have to die to know Him. "...seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you." Matthew 7:7
@scaleop4 "be still and know that I am God", thats Gods word of encouragement to us all, he is the all powerful God that will never leave us nor forsake us, when you're going through the worst moments of your life, just know that God is with you.... we shall meet someday
@utarioep Never forget, dear utarioep, that we Christians like you also believe in the one God, Creator of Heaven and Earth. The one God, Lord Almighty created us all and his name is not important. God bless you.
Musicians who died in the titanic tragedy played the song dell that with feeling captured the essence of death wrapped in his black robe and the cold and powerful hand stroking their souls The people who died that day were the greatest people that the world may never know how he should have ... The mother who sleeps with herchildren to lose their fear of dying ... The greatest musicians in history and world's most noble gentleman..
I'm glad the movie made that great old hymn popular with a new generation. Churches actually don't sing it much anymore. (I bet few modern Christians have ever sung it!) But its words are profound. It's a prayer to be closer to God ....no matter what it takes. Even "a cross". It was a great song for that movie.
@Jeeves1952 This hymn is one of my favorites -- and I love Andre Rieu's version of it. Thankfully we sing it all the time at the LDS church (Mormons).
I was too young when i watched the movie 'Titanic' for the 1st time...i hardly knew anything about this music during that time...but it certainly made my eyes wet and it still does whenever i hear this music!
This song was played on my dads funeral 5 months ago, he died of a heart attack at the age of 53, and im only 16, when they started playing it i thought i was gonna pass out.
I can just imagine Andre Rieu on the deck of Titanic, playing with the water at his ankles and saying 'Gentlemun, it as been a priveluge playing wit you tonight'.
Both of those saying this was the last song and that is was not are wrong. No one really knows what song the band members played as their last song. This is because all the survivors were in the lifeboats and they did not stick around long enough to hear it. And the 6 who were pulled from the water probably would not stop to listen. But speaking of the movie yes ladiegreensleeve is right this was the last song in the movie.
@polarkreis201 it's been speculated as to have been in fact the last song played on the RMS Titanic (real life), several 1st class passengers claim that "nearer my god to thee" was the last song played by the band. but of course their is no way in which we could find out this is fact.
Today, I took my 20 year old son and my elderly and frail mother to the Titanic exhibition at the Transport Museum at Cultra. This is not only the 100th anniversary of the Titanic's launch, but also the anniversary of the launch of her 'White Star Line' "Tender", Nomadic, which awaits full conservation at Hamilton dock in Belfast Harbour, Northern Ireland. My mother, son and I were amazed, moved and captivated by the artifacts and display pieces. Go and see it, history brought to life....

It was not god's work to let all those people die.
God's work was to save this few people who survived this nightmare.
And so God did.
And took all who died that night in his arms and kept them safe untill they where in heaven where he wil always watch over them.
