The choir of Westminster Abbey sing John Rutter's wonderful The Lord Bless You And Keep You during a service to celebrate the 60th wedding anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip.
The Lord bless you and keep you
The Lord make His face to shine upon you
To shine upon you and be gracious
And be gracious unto you
The Lord bless you and keep you
The Lord make His face to shine upon you
To shine upon you and be gracious
And be gracious unto you
The Lord lift up the light of his countenance upon you
The Lord lift up the light of his countenance upon you
And give you peace, and give you peace
And give you peace, and give you peace
Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen

When the boys in this choir hit that glorious high note towards the end of composition, it's as if angels in heaven are singing!

@MeadeSkeltonMusic 4 месяца назад

too high pitched for me. Should've gotten a Tenor.

As I was feeling some very old and deep emotional pain this evening, this song suddenly popped into my mind. Many years ago, I had sang it at a friend's wedding. I googled it and found this most beautiful performance. How powerful the Lord can minister His peace through it ...

This has been a favorite of mine since I sang it in several choirs throughout my teenage and young adult years. The lyrics came to my mind tonight as I struggle to find peace in a chaotic, suffering world. "And give you peace..."

@paularob2829 2 года назад

Ditto. I sang it with a choir years ago. I went to church today and a recording of it was played during communion. I sang it from start to finish then started crying afterwards. Good memories 😊

This is truly beautiful. I am not religious, but how can anyone not be moved by this wonderful music, and boys with voices like angels. It was played on the entrance to my father's funeral (during the first lockdown, only 10 of us allowed). The men have wonderful voices too of course.

@MeadeSkeltonMusic 3 года назад

Religion won't get you into heaven. Only Jesus Christ and a personal relationship with him alone can do that. So it's not about religion, it's about salvation.

The words "and give you peace", repeated four times, was deeply touching.. I am reminded of an old German saint and quoting her as I remember what she said. "The world mocks our joy and scoffs at our love but it envies our peace."

My chamber choir sang this my senior year of high school. Twenty-four years later, here I am, finding a version of it to share with my fiance. The harmonies still give me chills, and it meant--and means--even more since giving my life to the Lord the year before we sang it. So, so beautiful. And those boys... Amazing. Like someone else so aptly said, it's like angels singing.

Amen! That is what it is all about - the Good News that will save a soul from a lost eternity. As Christians, we are Chosen to fulfil the scriprure, Matthew 28:18-20 Go into all the world and preach the Gospel, making disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the Name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost ... Christianity is following Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God, the triumphant Victor over death, hell and the grave - (where oh death is thy sting, where oh grave is thy victory?), and developing an intimate relationship with our Heavenly Father, through His Son and by His Holy Spirit. As we read God's Word, and listen to His Guidance into His Plan for us each day, we become active in the faith, and God uses us for His Glory. It is, of course, the best life in this world, and Perfect Peace in the next, with all the trimmings. Be an overcomer ... Revelation ch. 20

@zerbinettastrauss7906 6 лет назад

God can use anyone for His purpose; Rutter has the grace to fulfill it. Deep down, I believe Rutter's heart believes, but circumstances led him into doubt. We cannot truly known ANYONE, sometimes, not even ourselves. The same goes for Vaughan Williams. BEAUTIFUL.

This reminded me of an interview story from Tim Curry. He had gotten a part in a musical stage play and was working with a singing coach. One of the songs had a falsetto part. Curry said, "I'm going to sing it in my normal range. I don't have a falsetto. I can't do it." As they kept working the coach brought it up another time or two. Curry said he got a little snappy with the coach. The next practice, the coach tried again. Same reaction. Then, the coach asked him, "Were you a boy soprano?" Curry: "Well, yes, in fact, I was. What's that got to do with anything?" Coach: "That's why you can't sing it. You're still grieving for that voice." To hear that story from one of the most antic, raunchy Brit singer-actors really rocked my boat.
