HUGHES , JOHN from Wales ( 1873 - 1932 ), composer of this hymn-tune to the words of Ann Griffiths from Wales (April 1776 – August 1805) She died following childbirth aged 29, She left behind a handful of stanzas in the Welsh language

We African Americans just sing this differently than the way this song is normally performed. Folks, it's OK. Let's calm and praise the Lord TOGETHER!

[sarahspeddy11]

It's a lovely version!

[pratapnoel]

Best Hymn

[chopanddilly1]

Well said, Tony! I heartily agree. I understand that the original "Cwm Rhondda" used the Divine name, Jehovah. Sir Harry Secombe has also chosen to use the Name in his version, and so have "Men Only Aloud". I was somewhat disappointed that Katherine Jenkins chose to sing "redeemer". But no matter. The Name will and is being made known.

Your brother,

Richard.

[tonythewitness]

This song is addressed to our great and loving creator Jehovah, I love it! Check your own Bible in Psalms 83:18 where he confirms his personal name for us to use. In fact he uses this personal name nearly 7,000 times in the old testament. The churches seem to hate his name though, I wonder why?

With Christian Love

Tony

[patchesoffear]

Welsh lol

[TheDriverr]

this is FAR TOO FAST PEOPLE. You need to SLOW THE HECK DOWN wid this lovely ole hymn U DIGG

hmmm Wots wid the sheep

[ElderPinkerton]

We are the sheep of his pasture. Jesus is the Great Shepherd. He laid his life down for the sheep.

[rosamondmdopwell]

@ElderPinkerton I have NO PROBLEM with being a sheep following JESUS as the GREAT SHEPHERD ~~> NOT even a SLAVE to HIM.

[randomdave30]

What's with the sheep?

[11shan23]

fck is w| all dese WHITE ppl ? WHERE IS THE BlACK VERSiONNNN ?

[BestLovedHymns]

@11shan23 And what's up with your language - where is the clean version? Also, do you have a problem with white people?

[3tangle3]

@BestLovedHymns its song originally sung in welsh anyway lol.......doesnt matter if its black or white ppl..haha

[MeinnameistDreck]

@11shan23

This hymn was written by a white man. Jehovah made all of us, white or black. Get over yourself.

[nxumalosic]

@MeinnameistDreck I like that my brother! I am an African but when I see a white man I see my brother or my sister same as when i see a black man. For me skin colour does not mean anything and if we can realize this the world would be a better place.

[lmjsa]

@11shan23  You have a choice. Instead of ranting at the absence of the "Black version" (and I do presume you know two Welshmen wrote / composed this song) , try and find a version you like and post it. This uploader has spent hours to post these glorious songs which lift our souls in worship and gratitude. Maybe you could follow her example.

[MoneyMakerHoneyTaker]

a wonderfull soul serching hymn/ it makes one search his own heart

forgive me Lord ,for I have sinned / cleanse my heart , soul , and spirit

/ As King David said " create in me a clean heart oh lord" and renew a right spirit with in me

hell they on a promise ??

[taffy402]

Sorry Ladies nice but too fast a tempo.

[RenDem]

I used to hear this at chapel every week, when I was a child.

Nostalgic.

[satcher2001]

Isn't this the one that was allegedly Princess Di's favorite hymn? I'm Presbyterian and this is one that's sung at almost every funeral.

[jensmom604]

Diana's favorite hymn was "I Vow to Thee, My Country." It was sung at her wedding as well as her funeral.

[flashash2k9]

@satcher2001 who actually cares about princess di, she had a freakin affair.

[monakayk]

My father was Welsh and sang this song all the time. Lovely Welsh Hymn! Thanks for posting it.

[theoabe]

guide me o thou great Jehovah is one of my top 5 hymns.

[OneWorldOneDestiny]

Thank you for my life, Lord. Please, use me to make the world a better place. Help me to nurture love where there is hatred; joy where there is sadness; and hope where there is hopelesness. These are my passion, Lord. To you be the glory till the end of time.

[KEN58FUKUIN]

That's awesome!!

Praise God!!

[JohnnyNW]

God bless Wales!

[85511813086]

i sang this song every tuesday and thursday in Wellington College, New Zealand, and i'm an international student too, but inever understand what is its meaning. :-(

[Simpledzai]

I sympathize with you 85511813086. It is basically someone who is weary, confused and repressed by the challenges and trials of this present life appealing to He who can save and deliver us, He who is the fount all wisdom and strength and nourishment, He who loves to be our sustenance, the Lord God Jesus Christ to intervene and give the person rest, comfort and guidance. It is our universal plea as mankind, yet it is a singular plea that each of us honest to themself can personalize.

[Saskinny]

It means Jesus is your everything...not just for now but in the afterlife.

[erzbet07]

So very, very beautiful! I've loved this song ever since seeing HOW GREEN WAS MY VALLEY many years ago.

The singers are superb!

Thanks very much!

[Gandalf1948]

Beautiful hymn!
