Easter 2006 Opening Hymn

The processional on Easter Sunday 2006 at St. Matthias' Church, Dallas, TX.

The hymn is "At the Lamb's High Feast We Sing" and the tune is Salzburg.

The organ is a Reuter/Allen pipe/electronic hybrid installed in 2003.

I have received a number of comments about the video concerning TEC and its PB. I'm sorry, but my video is not a forum for public discussion about church politics. If you feel the sudden urge to publicly state your opinions on the issue, post it on someone else's video, or better yet, on a public forum intended for debate. Thanks.

o wow, i LOVE this hymn...i've never heard it in church before, our Methodist hymnal doesn't have it. Is this a Lutheran or Catholic church maybe? The organ has a lovely sound.

It is a wonderful hymn indeed. The church was formerly Episcopalian but is now associated with the Anglican church. Thanks for your comment!

Beautiful Lutheran/Anglican Hymn & Worship! :)

By the way, this is a lovely hymn and instrument. I enjoy classical-style liturgical music and hymns of all kinds, even though my own faith tradition is Reform Judaism.

Beautiful Anglo-Catholic Church! I especially appreciate the use of the Subdeacon. Godspeed and God Bless!

I wish the organist and choir was this good at my church. We have a wonderful, big pipe organ and a great French-gothic style church and the organist never uses more than the basic flutes and diapasons (and ALWAYS with the trems on). The only time I have heard reeds or mixtures was when I was playing the organ myself. :/

In the early fifties, my uncle was rector of the Church of the Incarnation in Dallas. It's a pleasure to see this video of some place he had probably been. My Mom was an Episcopal Church organist from the time she was 13 till she retired at 81 and I love these wonderful hymns! Thanks so much!

@superoctave I love this style of worship. So slow, graceful and dignified.
