The Finlandia hymn, "Be Still, My Soul" refers to a serene hymn-like section of the patriotic symphonic poem Finlandia, written by the Finnish composer Jean Sibelius. It was later re-worked by the composer into a stand-alone piece.
Whoever's listening to this: May whatever is hurting you and making you anxious get better. May the overthinking and the doubts leave your mind, may clarity replace confusion and may God's strength replace your weakness! You're loved!
I had never heard of this song until last week. In the year 2021, while my grandmother was praying for me said she got a song for me. I noted the hymn no. and forgot about it. And just last week, I decided to search for it here on YT and wow, I love this so much now. God’s love is so pure. Pay attention, listen to him, he is always speaking to us in many form. God bless ya’ll.
I lost my Dad in January to COVID-19, and this was the song chosen to play during his viewing. I have listened to it every day since. I miss him so much. Thank you both for this beautiful prayer. Dad would have loved this.
Be still, my soul, The Lord is on thy side Bear patiently, the cross of grief or pain Leave to Thy God, to order and provide In every change, He faithful will remain Be still, my soul, thy best thy heavenly friend Through thorny ways, leads to a joyful end Be still, my soul, thy God doth undertake To guide the future as He has the past Thy hope, thy confidence, let nothing shake All now mysterious shall be bright at last Be still, my soul, the waves and wind still know His voice who ruled them while He dwelt below In You I rest, in You I found my hope In You I trust, You never let me go I place my life within Your hands alone Be still, my soul Be still, my soul, the hour is hastening on When we shall be forever with the Lord When disappointment, grief and fear are gone Sorrow, forgot, love's purest joys restored Be still, my soul, when change and tears are past All safe and blessed, we shall meet at last In You I rest, in You I found my hope In You I trust, You never let me go I place my life within your hands alone Be still, my soul Be still, my soul Be still, my soul Be still, my soul....

This beautiful piece brought years to my eyes. It reminded me of two beautiful songs. Be Still and know that I am God and It Is Well With My Soul. Written by a man who was going on a ship with his wife and two daughters, but he was not able to go, so they continued on this ship. Not long after, this ship was in a storm and sank. He lost his wife and 2 daughters. After this he wrote It Is Well With My Soul.
Beautiful arrangement. I’m a church organist, pianist and violinist so fully appreciate the musicianship required for both instruments. Well performed!
My mom told me to watch this video today. Thank you for a beyond beautiful performance. ❤ Lifted my spirits and reminded me that He is always by my side. 😢❤
It has been in my heart for years to bring this song into a contemporary light where this generation can discover its beauty, comfort and spiritual depth Clearly with God’s help, you did it. Thank you. You have taken my breath away.
Dear William and Zack. Thank you for your heart and so much feeling, in this outstandingly, beautiful rendition of 'Be still my soul' This really touched my soul! God bless you both 🙏🏽
thank you, I think we really need patriotic music in this highly depressing time , music and mind, to free ourselves, our souls from hatred people and gods.
Wow! Beautifully done. The Lord is using this song to get my attention as I'm facing a difficult situation; it remains my favorite hymn. Three days in a row: In the film Princess Cut 2, the grandmother sings this while facing a tragedy; the next day I prepare my will with this song for the service; today, the pianist plays this song and I have the hymnal open to it blessed by the words. Thank you, @edwindarius7232, for your encouragement also! The body must build each other up for we need each other. You're loved!
Sincerely Precious in Flawless Execution into an emotional blissful delight in appreciation of beautiful music! Superbly Splendid ever after wonderings
The cello to my ear is the closest to a human voice. I love when you nod to Zack and set him free to express the melody line with every thing in his soul. What an exquisite arrangement Michael. God bless you.
Thank you for listening and commenting... I have a few songs now on Spotify/Apple Music that we have not made videos for yet, so I hope you will enjoy them too... 💖😎

Lyrics 1. Be still, my soul: The Lord is on thy side; With patience bear thy cross of grief or pain. Leave to thy God to order and provide; In ev’ry change he faithful will remain. Be still, my soul: Thy best, thy heav’nly Friend Thru thorny ways leads to a joyful end. 2. Be still, my soul: Thy God doth undertake To guide the future as he has the past. Thy hope, thy confidence let nothing shake; All now mysterious shall be bright at last. Be still, my soul: The waves and winds still know His voice who ruled them while he dwelt below. 3. Be still, my soul: The hour is hast’ning on When we shall be forever with the Lord, When disappointment, grief, and fear are gone, Sorrow forgot, love’s purest joys restored. Be still, my soul: When change and tears are past, All safe and blessed we shall meet at last.
