A most interesting concatenation of two great hymns, followed by a reprise of the first hymn (Be Thou My Vision). Sensitively performed by a seasoned artist. Thank you for making this video available.
Beautiful, beautiful song. I'd never heard of El McMeen until I heard his song "Irish Meditation" on a Celtic Collection on CD. That song is worth hunting down. It's every bit as thoughtful and beautiful as this (maybe more so). Thanks for posting this to YouTube. You have fans out here who would never get a chance to see you without YouTube. Encore.
Absolutely lovely! The arrangement is as sensitive and evocative as the original composition. I want to do an arrangement of this and hope you won't mind if I refer to you for ideas. I thought your guitar sounded great! What kind is it by the way?God bless you!
Lovely. you make the guitar sing.

The guitar played with this skill was a symphony in itself.

More beautiful fingerstyle guitar - I've got one of your cd's along with the tab. It is a real joy to listen to and play. Thank you!

Thanks to all for the kind commentary.
You may be referring to my very first CD on the Shanachie label, entitled "Of Soul and Spirit", recorded in 1990, and released in 1991.

I bought that off of iTunes :) I didn't know you were a Christian until now, that makes your music even better.

Thank you.
The guitar is a Franklin OM, with Madagascar Rosewood and a German Silver Spruce top.

That is a fantastic arrangement and beautifully played. My favourite hymn. I feel inspired to have a go.

Would sound more beautiful on a nylon string classical guitar.

Frankly, very little could sound more beautiful than El's guitar playing. So evocative, thoughtful, beautiful. A true virtuoso.
