Beautiful! i came here because I'm critically ill; I have an incurable degenerative muscle disease. The Lord woke me up at 2:58 am playing this in my head.
This was played at my wedding in 2005 and then at my husband’s funeral 3 months ago. I The video shows up in RU-vid and I feel like it’s my husband reaching out to me.
This is my all time favourite hymn. We sang it at my Dads funeral and it brought me to tears. I will be having it at my funeral. Absolutely beautiful choir.
I get very emotional with the singing of this great hymn. My precious deceased husband’s very favorite hymn. I am crying now. So beautiful. I sang it to my deceased husband as he was transitioning from life to death.

When I first heard this many years ago I was in a dilemma I had two job offers. One in my professional field one very outside my comfort zone..We practiced this in my choir practice and realised I had already chosen I chose the day I committed my life to HIM. So I left my vet practice of retrained in social care and addiction support services. For over 25years I worked within my faith group in our social services department. I loved my work .I retired recently and was stunned by the turn out at my retirement. One of my best friends Sing this and turned around to me and said you have answered. Here the proof and the doors opened and in walked a group of my ex services users everyone of them now dependence free and believers.I wept very grateful tears. He's still leading me and I'm still following
When i have a tough day, i listen to this song. Thank you Lord Jesus Christ for providing us this inspiring song. Thank you internet Breathren, your hard work for putting this video together. So much Joy in Jesus Christ! Hallelujah!
Great, here I am, a grown man, crying......CRYING! God bless each and every singer and musician who sang/played on this. Absolutely beautiful! A true message from God!
Your spirit is responding to the Lord your God from your deepest place. Know that you are His. ❤ Seek the Baptism of the Holy Spirit with Power now and allow Him to minister and more through you.
Just glorious. Today is the ninth anniversary of my Much beloved father’s death nine years ago, six years after my mother. We included this in each of their memorial services. I have been singing this all day in honor of each of them. This beautiful hymn always brings tears to me eyes. This is a wonderful version. Thank you.
I just discovered this a week ago. It's a truly inspired, emotional and gorgeous arrangement of one of the most beautiful hymns. I can't believe just how fantastic it is. And I keep coming back to listen to it! To the beautiful and talented singers and musicians of the Choir and Orchestra of St. Lillian my heartfelt thanks for sharing your faith and talent with us. We are indeed blessed.
Crying at the beauty of this…GOD Bless You my Catholic Brothers and Sisters! My Mom, Dad, and little Brother had this played at their Funeral Mass I promised them I would.
One of the blessings covid brought us was these absolutely beautiful performances on zoom. God’s children were brought closer together, because no lockdown could separate us nor stop us from sharing the love of Christ. Absolutely nothing can ever separate us from God’s love as well and His power.
Hell yes! I love being Catholic! Prayers to all who contributed to this and in honor of those dedicated to 🙏 Beautiful. As a very young child one of my fondest memories that would stir something within me, was this song. It's like I'm still between my parents in the pew, being the youngest of my siblings, even though they are gone now. Thank you for that memory. #MuchLove ❤
Absolutely gorgeous arrangement. Raised Catholic, the song has been a part of my sacred music history. I was ordained an interfaith minister in St. John the Divine Cathedral years ago, and this song was included in the interfaith ceremony. This is just lovely.
BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL SONG AS THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I BELEIVE I'VE HEARD THIS SONG. AND TODAY HAS COME TO MY HEARING AT A PREFECT TIME WHICH WAS A VERY HARD DAY. KNOWING THAT THE "LIVING GOD" IS IN CONTROL GIVES ME PEACE.
This is one of my favourite hymns of all time! I felt the original melody echo around in my head today (29th May 2021), when I was feeling anxious and excited about receiving my 1st Covid jab. I will keep these words in mind as I go to receive it in Sheffield, England: "I will go Lord, if you lead me. I will hold your people in my heart." God bless you all and thank you so much for doing this! With loads of love and virtual hugs, Christine. xxx xxx ^o^
As a funeral service professional, I have heard this song many times, and I must say this rendition is the top. God bless each and every one of you, and all of us.
THIS is so beautifully done. @Jim, I agree completely. This version is one of the best versions I have ever heard. Will be using with my Confirmation class during our Mystagogy.
I heard this song for the first time yesterday, while in Ash Wednesday Mass and I found it so beautiful that bring tears to my eyes! Absolutely love this song and this Choir performance is brilliant!! God bless you! 🙏🙏🙏😍😍😍
@Maria Surprised you have not heard it before; It is well known. Thats lovely you like it..... so beautiful, one of my favourites. Bless you 💕 from Scotland, UK 🏴
How amazing and beautiful!! I remember this song from when I was a child in parochial school; I remember all of the variations and interpretations over the years, whether the piece was song by a congregation, church choir or small group. It just brings back so many memories and hopes. This beautiful performance and the video presentation have that same effect of lifting up and giving hope and encouragement. Bravo! Choir of St. Lillian.
You can never stop people from singing. Even a pandemic will not keep us quiet and we are never alone. Keep singing and sharing our voices with each other. That was beautiful!
Thank you Choir and Orchestra of St. Lillian. Your music and adaption of this song is beautiful. Your RU-vid video really makes my day. I can really see God's hand in your music.-Thank you.
Congratulations to the singers, musicians, and arranger. Outstanding and so inspirational!! I am lucky to have grown up in a Parish in the 70s and 80s that invested in progressive music (The Young People’s Choir, IHM Parish, Chicago). I cannot understand why contemporary music is so difficult to find at Mass in the 21st century. This video plainly illustrates the power of relatable music. Thank you!
Oh my goodness! Goosebumps on my legs & arms...this is so beautiful! Thank you so much! Bravo!!! I have always LOVED this song growing up...so many memories! Today, we bury Mom...Dad was buried 8 months ago. May they rest in God's Peace forever! Thank you to ALL of you beautiful Singers & Musicians...Thank you for sharing your talents w/us...God's continued Blessings+++
Absolutely stunning , gorgeous beautiful,…. Fill with the Holy Spirit …. I want this song for my wake … ❤️❤️❤️from France 🇫🇷.., with so much love ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I first heard this hymn while in Pittsburgh, Pa., at a training course for Stephen Ministers. We sang it together and we were 400 strong and it was amazing.
This song brings me to tears every time I hear it. I cannot even sing it in church anymore because of my emotions. This rendition is no exception, as I am in tears writing this comment. As a retired emergency department/trauma nurse, I brought my faith and religion with me to work everyday. There were many times that I literally washed the feet of the poor and downtrodden because of the deplorable conditions they lived in. Similarly, good people get into trouble by no fault of their own. I was but a vehicle for God's love when I cared for patients. Thank you for placing this video online.
Beautiful job, I came upon this completely by accident only to find my friends and family in the video, awesome job Debbie, Uncle Vito, ❤️ and the others in this angelic choir.
