Beautiful Tune, Lance. I must admit I don't know any of the LDS Hymns but this one is really lovley and what nice, meaningful words to the Refrain. God bless. Charlie.

Many times I have heard "March from Scipio" played as an Organ Voluntary when the Kirk's coming out, Rob. I may have known the name of this Piece by Handel but can't recall. Anyway, you played it so well, Rob, and many thanks again. Five Stars to you!! Aye Yours. Charlie, Woodside, Aberdeen.

Rob. Many thanks for posting me your latest videos. On Songs of Praise, last night, Vera and I heard the Welsh Male Voice Choirs singing "Calon Lan." It's a wonderful Tune, Rob, and great seeing so many lads, much younger than me showing such interest. Thanks once again, Rob, and as we often ...

Great hearing this lovely Tune to H.W. Longfellow's "I heard the Bells on Christmas Day", Lance. I have an old Book of his Poems here at home. He was a wonderful Poet and obviously, a very Christian man. I enjoyed reading his "Psalm of Life"; also "Hiawatha" and "Robert Burns." Hope you're do...

Hello Chris. Thank you very much, as always, for posting me your latest Videos. Don't think there's any other Instrument in a Church that can beat the Organ and it's great to see you younger lads taking such an interest in it. I told a young lad here in Aberdeen, about 11 years ago now, if he ...

Like your new-look website tongiht, Lance. Charlie (Woodside, Aberdeen, Scotland).

"Safe in the Arms of Jesus" is a beautiful Hymn, Lance. I remember it from childhood and it's so touching. I've often said to folk I would have loved to have met Fanny Crosby as I love her many Hymns. I find blind people, after initial introductions, so easy to connect with. It's so satisfyin...

Rob. Many thanks again for posting me your latest video. It was superb! I haven't heard "Land of My Fathers" for many years, and you played it with such feeling. I always remember "To Cymru my heart shall be true." Our Music Teacher at Macduff High School, Banffshire, taught us it 50+ years ...

Seeing the Sun shine on your Cross Ring, Lance, reminded me on a beautiful day in September 1993, travelling by Train to Mallaig, not the "Hogwarts' Express!" On passing Our Lady of the Braes RC Chapel, featured in "Local Hero", the Sun streamed through the stained glass window in shape of the ...

Lance. You played this wonderful Hymn of Fanny Crosby's so beautifully. Thank you. Verse 2, in particular, has been a source of comfort to me in difficult days. God bless. Charlie.

Lovely sounding Organ, Chris. I was a minute until I remembered the Tune. Yes! It was Deerhurst. Used to sing "Round the Lord in glory seated" to it. And, Chris, many thanks as always for posting me your latest Videos. It's great listening with my headphones! God bless. Charlie, Woodside,...

Great hearing the Harmonium, once common in many homes, Chris. Verse 2 of "Jesus loves Even Me" is so comforting.

"Tho' I forget Him and wander away,

Still He doth love wherever I stray;

Back to His dear loving arms do I flee,

When I remember that Jesus loves me."

A wonderful President of Ab...

Loved your performance of this great Hymn, Lance. I've known it since childhood and it's a wonderful Hymn. Back in 1989, a Group of us from Aberdeen went on Pilgrimage to the Holy Land. It's something I'll never forget, Lance. When we came to the Dome of the Ascension, another group were sing...

Thank you again for posting me your latest videos, Rob. St. John's Church, Gowerton, Swansea, looks lovely. With the position of the Organ; also the stained glass window, it reminds me a little on the Cathedral Church of St. Machar, near my home and high up on a bank above the River Don. St. C...

I learned "Will Your Anchor Hold" in the BB's over 50 years ago, Chris. Hailing originally from the Banffshire Coast, I love these Hymns which speak of the Sea. Many years later, at my cousin's home in Dufftown, an old lady and I sang it during Songs of Praise. It wasn't so well known inland a...

Very nice sounding Organ, Chris. At long last, I've purchased headphones and what a difference it has made. This is a nice Tune. All the best and God bless. Charlie in Cold Aberdeen.

Wonderful production, Rob, and what a beautiful Church All Saints Oystermouth is! Thoroughly enjoyed your video. You did a fantastic job on the "Conker!" And many thanks again for posting your latest. Kindest regards and God bless. Charlie, in Cold Aberdeen.

Beautiful Tune, Lance, which I've never heard before. May I say, no matter how strong our belief or our faith, we miss our our loved ones dearly and never forget them. Only last month, while visting the Cemetery, I felt tears at my Mam's and Vera's Granny's resting places as I thought on the ha...

Wonderful playing, Rob. Yes. I do remember this piece in the film, "The Abominable Dr. Phibes." Long time ago now now, Rob. At long last, bought headphones today and what a difference! Many thanks again. Yours, Charlie in Aberdeen.

Love all the comments you recieve and give, Rob! Never fails to cheer me and give me a good laugh! Aye Yours. Charlie.

Hi Lance. While in Aberdeen College IT Centre today, I put on Headphones to hear you playing this beautiful, rousing Hymn. WOW, Lance! Only word to describe it is FANTASTIC! I could well have been in a Cathedral. I've heard "My Jesus, I love You" sung to this Tune. Thank you for touching my...

Lovely sound coming from this interesting organ, Rob. Once again, many thanks for posting me your videos. God bless. Aye Yours. Charlie (Aberdeen)

Hi Lance. I loved hering you playing "Holy, Holy, Holy" so beautifully on the Organ. Judging by the many comments, it's still very popular. Up until 1973, it was Hymn Number 1 in our Scottish Hymnary. Keep them coming, Lance! Charlie.

What a nice surprise, Lance, when I learned there is a Hymn Tune, "Blairgowrie." Listening to it, is it in 76.76. D Metre? I met a lady at our Midweek Service today, around my own age, who originally hails from the Perthshire Town ("Blair"). Like me, she has lived in Aberdeen for many years. ...

Sorry Rob. I should have said "Sacred Songs & Solos (1200 Pieces) No 581. Thanks again. Charlie.

Dear Lance. I'm lost for words re your playing; also the many, many comments on this beautiful Hymn. I'm looking up my trusted "Sacred Songs & Solos", 1200 Pieces. It is No. 581. I'm going to contact young Rob Charles at Swansea re this as I saw his name among many. You're a wonderful lad, L...

What a lovely piece, Chris! Thought it sounded a wee bit like the Gaelic Air, "Leaving Lismore." And what a nice, unusual Organ you were playing. Again, many thanks for posting your latest videos, Chris. Cold and frosty in Aberdeen tonight. All the best, Charlie.

Beautiful old Hymn, Chris. The Old Testament Reading in Church today was of God calling Samuel. Since my childhood over 50 years, I've loved that passage. Can't remember if I heard it first in School, Sunday School or where, but remember my Mam speaking of "Speak, Lord, for Thy servant heareth...

One of the most beautiful Hymns ever written, Lance. A good friend of mine told me that Albert Lister Peace, who composed the Tune, was one time Organist in Glasgow Cathedral. I think George Matheson, the blind Minister who wrote the Hymn must have been a man of great Faith and courage. Many t...

Brings back memories of my oldest friend who chose "How sweet the Name of Jesus sounds"; also "There is a Land of Pure Delight" at her well attended funeral service in 2003, Lance. When I say "oldest", she met me when I was a day old! By what she told me, many years later, she (Net as we knew h...

Love "Penlan", Rob. It's nearly 50 years since I first heard it sung in the Church of my youth in Macduff, Banffshire, with harmonium accompaniment, while the organ was being overhauled. The last Verse of "In Heavenly Love Abiding" speaks to me of a glorious vision - "Green pastures are before ...

Chris. Many thanks for posting me all your nice Organ Videos. Hope 2012 will be a great year for you. Good health and God bless. From Charlie in the "Granite City."

Beautiful Tune, "Warrington", Lance. I've known it for many years as the Tune I know best for "Jesus shall reign, where'er the Sun." Many thanks again, Lance. God bless. Charlie.

"City of God" is a beautiful, rousing Hymn, Chris. We learned it in Primary 7 away back in 1959 as our School Assembly Hymn, Macduff, Banffshire. What a shame that beautiful Church in Penzance had to close. I experienced similar in 1988 when my last Church in Aberdeen closed. I found it very s...

A great Hymn of hope and comfort, Lance, and you played it so beautifully and majestically. Not feeling quite up to the mark today and both your versions have lifted me. Quite mild in Aberdeen this morning - no snow! Many thanks and God bless. All the best in 2012. Charlie.

Beautiful Tune, Lance. I remember in the Church of my childhood in NE Scotland, it was used for a Hymn not heard nowadays, "Come, my soul, thy suit prepare; Jesus loves to answer prayer." And I do remember "Children of the Heavenly King" also. Cherished memories of long ago. Charlie.

A Happy New Year to you when it comes in, Rob. All blessings for Health and Happiness in 2012. Best wishes from Bonnie Aberdeen. From Charlie.

Have a Happy, Healthy and Blessed New Year, Lance. All best wishes for 2012 from Charlie in Bonnie Aberdeen.

Loved hearing you playing "Maryton", Lance. It's the beautiful Tune we sing "Jesus, Thou Joy of Loving Hearts" to, across the Pond here. We've often sung it at Communion but I knew it long before that. The words are really poignant. Thank you again for that lovely rendition. God bless you fo...

Brilliant hearing "Jingle Bells" on the Kirk Organ, Rob! Watching you at work, I think you really did a great job! All the best, my lad. From Charlie in Aberdeen.

Long time since I first heard "Puff the Magic Dragon," Chris. Great to see an organ of this type installed in a Church. Many thanks for e-mailing me your latest videos. All best wishes for good health, happiness and success in 2012. Yours. Charlie in the "Granite City" of Aberdeen.

Dearx8lover. The Tune "Nettleton" can be found in present Scottish Hymnary (CH4) and is used for a Hymn entitled "Sing of Andrew, God's Disciple." We sang it in our Church in Aberdeen 3 years' past St. Andrew's Day. It's a super Tune. Hope I've been some help to you in your search. Sincerely...

On hearing "Like a River Glorious", Lance, which you played so beautifully, I am transported back to a beloved scene from childhood, near the Cemetery where my Dad and Mam are resting. I visited there last week - the old cart road, the railway bridge and the little burn shooting white water as i...

Lance. You really played this lovely old Hymn beautifully. The sound of the organ is fantastic. Keep up your good work and keep these wonderful old Hymns coming. Many thanks again and God bless. Charlie.
