Thanks
Sure on this shining night Of star made shadows round, Kindness must watch for me This side the ground. The late year lies down the north. All is healed, all is health. High summer holds the earth. Hearts all whole. Sure on this shining night I weep for wonder wand'ring far alone Of shadows on the stars. The poem comes from a book by James Agee entitled "Permit Me Voyage" published 1934 by Yale University Press...
This is unspeakably radiant. I will take this across the threshold of the New Year (January 1, 2025). It opens up a vista of hope or yearning inside me. Both Morten Lauridsen's luminous composition, but also this chorus under this conductor. This (Westminster Choir of Rider University) is the most beautiful (to me) expression of this piece of music I have ever heard. Thank you!
nice
We use to sing this song in the High School Chorale.... I still have great memories of this song from 50 years ago. I went to a public school and of coarse, there is no way this song would be sung today in a public school. C. Bruce Stevenson you were an inspiration. This choir sings this song beautifully! Thank you for the memories!
We sang this at Galena Park High school choir. It was our warm-up! I graduated in 2007. My daughter now is a middle schooler and knows this song because I sing it when I’m stressed; it helps me calm down.
Dedicate this song to all humanity; the Lyrics speak volumes; YESHUAH'S blessings, shalom, amen.
🎄☃️
What a beautiful rendition ❤
Memories of Woodbury Jr High 1978
He always succeeded to bring the heavenly arrangement and voices to this world. May God bless Sir JR.
Goose bump music. I, too, sang this song in High School concert choir. Great message to boot.
Beautiful
Why do the comments for every hymn on youtube have to include people dying?
I sang this beautiful song at my eighth grade graduation. A long, long time ago. It still moves me to this very day. A wonderful rendition, Westminster Choir!
My high school choir sang this every Friday before we left for the weekend. This week I will sing this with them at our directors husbands benediction.
As an incoming freshman at Iowa Wesleyan College now University in 1981 I have thrilling memories of those spontaneous performances of this peice by upper classmates previous season favorites. And the choir director Burton Mahle was a pushover for F Melius Christiansen.
God bless us and keep us AMEN🤍
Thank you for sharing this great hymn, sung by followers of Jesus! Organ sounds marvelous!
Beautiful!
I mean, just a really good HS choir. I’m always amazed they aren’t better for the conductor and college
HOW BEAUTIFUL 🔥❤️🔥🔥 OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE STAY BLESSED ALWAYS MANY THANKS 🙏🏽🙏🏼🙏🏽❤️❤️❤️‼️‼️‼️
My rude music teacher went here his name was Matthew South and he always criticized me about how I play the ukulele and he made me and my friend not work or talk to each other even when we were doing our work so I wanted to get revenge by exposing him because he was on a gay dating app he hasn’t found out yet but I reported it to the school staff and did nothing
This made me cry and sob. In Chapel at Abilene Christian University in Abilene, Texas and large functions in the coliseum, we would sing this song. ACU is known fir this. These voices sound just like our large crowds which, of course, sang it A cappella. Such fond memories at ACU. Thank you for posting this perfect and beautiful video of this fine choir. I would love to hear them in person. Maybe some day.
I'm not religious but this has to be my most favorite song that we sung at chorus in school. It's so beautiful. This choir did it so amazingly. I can't help but hum along with the altos. When we performed this, a couple of us got teary eyed (myself included) and some in the audience were too. We weren't in the stands, though. We each had a battery powered candle, the lights were turned off, and we all made rounds in the audience while singing. We were just illuminated by the candles. It was very touching.
This is so ethreal it actually brings tears to my eyes 🤍
Listened to a few of these and this is one of the very few recordings that gets the mix right between piano and voice. Many others have the piano part too dominant. Bravo to the recording techs as much as the performers.
Westminster was the premier choral conservatory in the country. Absolutely magnificent school with talented and dedicated instructors and students. It is an unmitigated disgrace that Rider has destroyed this once thriving cultural academic institution. SHAME ON RIDER!
My church choir sang this often:I love this version, and a favorite song to this day!♥️
If you know anyone named Matthew South he’s my music teacher and he is rude to me I found him on a gay dating app btw I tried to report it 💀
Every Methodist kid who can match pitches knows the Lutkin Benediction. 😎
I sang this song as part of the N.U 1 Seventh Day Adventist Church in Mdantsane back in 2000-2002.
sang this with the christian youth group, all great singers of course and that was the first time i realized the beauty there is in the world is really right there in front of you
I hope an ELCA Benediction will bury me as this video does.
Absolutely beautiful...our churches don't sing sacred liturgical music like this anymore. Why? What a shame!
did you give up on a tenor section?
Thank you My acapella group sang Good health love and peace for new years day every year in our church congregation was very appreciative
I miss the school and all of the experiences, and the faculty...
Extraordinary always. Setting the standard
I love this rendition and this arrangement... <3 Coming here in 2024 as a reminder to my old choir days... This was beautiful
Nailed it! :) (Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!)
Just Beautiful!!!
To this day, it's one of my favorite songs ever. 😇
"The Lord Bless You and Keep You" Is this the same Lord who is a mass murderer? (I'm referring to the nearly entire population of the earth (est. 4 billion) by Noah's flood - as well as killing the populations of Sodom & Gomorrah, The firstborn Egyptians, the massacre of women and children at Jericho and the Egyptian chariot army). It's doubtful that these human beings felt blessed. And by "keep" it is meant that God can turn on innocent people and destroy them, then I get it.
Sure on this shining night Of starmade shadows round Kindness must watch for me This side the ground On this shining night This shining night Sure on this shining night Of starmade shadows round Kindness must watch for me This side the ground On this shining night This shining night. The late year lies down the north All is healed, all is health High summer holds the earth Hearts all whole The late year lies down the north All is healed, all is health High summer holds the earth Hearts all whole Sure on this shining night Sure on this shining night Sure on this shining night I weep for wonder Wandering far alone Of shadows on the stars Sure on this shining night Of starmade shadows round Kindness must watch for me This side the ground Oh, this shining night This shining night The shining night Sure on this shining night Source: Musixmatch Songwriters: James Agee / Morten Lauridsen
Thank you very much for posting the lyrics here. It always adds so much.
All the voices coming together are beautiful and their timing and pauses are just perfect to move a person deeply
Great
I still remember when I was with our school choir singing this song during a church visit. Honestly, the song is very, very beautiful ❤
Beautiful!!!
Still Beautiful!!!...Up-Lifting!!!.....2024
It's tough the Lord keeps his consonants upon you
Clinton high School acapella, we sang this acapella at the White House no s*** Sherlock!
