  • A powerful hymn for a powerful fulfilment within our lives...Praise you! for you are great in love and mercy!

  • @AECEntertainment There were several other musical members of the Goss family, including Reginald Goss (John’s nephew), who played the organ at Winston Churchill’s wedding, and Walter Henry ‘Harry’ Goss-Custard, who was the organist at the Liverpool Anglican Cathedral. He was the one who was name-checked in last night’s Mastermind Grand Final. My late grandfather, Leslie, was his son.

  • @AECEntertainment Correction: John Goss was my great-great-great-great uncle. On realising that my late maternal grandfather, Leslie, would’ve been 100 years old today, I’ve been revisiting my family’s musical heritage. It starts with the composer John Goss (1800-1880), who, among other things, wrote the music for the hymn ‘Praise my Soul, the King of Heaven’.

    As a young chorister he made quite an impression on John Stafford Smith, the composer of ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’.

  • @StonefieldJim4 wow what a privilage.

    God bless the generations of your family for this hymn! my favourite

  • This is my own personal very favorite hymn. What a beautiful rendition. Thanks for posting it. PRAISE HIM!!!

  • I have no problem in saying that this hymn can be played at my funeral!!!

  • Nice version. My great-great-great-(not sure how many 'greats') grandfather wrote it.

  • Very nice, my step mom had this song played as she walked down the aisle to marry my dad. My mom would have approved!

    God is slow to chide and quick to bless. I try to do the same.

  • beautifully performed. But, it may be helpful to actually read the text, take appropriate grammatical pauses, and in general, slow down a bit. It's a text withouth flaw, and deserves a Regal tempo! Just an old musician's opion!

  • this is a wonderful song.. and this is also the College Hymn of the school that I attended while I was back in Sri Lanka.
