I truly love this hymn, but I just want to say that I feel in my heart that this hymn should be sung "a bit SLOWER". Not trying to criticise, I play this hymn on my keyboard each day, & I just feel that it sounds "so much better" when it's played on a church pipe organ. I have a very good friend who's a church organist, & she's VERY professional in her field......& also very wonderful & talented in her God-given gift!
This is one of my very favorite hymns....I agree, "the pipes" would sound much better, than the piano. I do think, however, this song should be sung just a little bit slower. I have a yamaha here at my house, I play this song "every single day", mainly just to glorify the Lord....he's aware of my intentions, & besides this hymn, I play many other Catholic hymns as well, just for "praise & glory". I've got a misalette here, I also sing along, as I play...this comes straight from my heart!
I love this song, we always sang this song in the opening.

the speed is fine. I actually prefer piano to organ anymore, as the piano is lighter in sound and not heavy and overpowering.

Gargh!!!! That pains me to see that wonderful looking organ in the background but not hearing its pipes sound for this Hymn!

I find it refreshing to hear something other than pipes!
