Glory to God! I feel I should mention: this song is not Orthodox per se (it was originally composed by an Appalachian Protestant preacher in the 1920s) but it's certainly conducive to meditating on death, which is a central tenet of Orthodox spirituality- and it's just a great song! May Christ make straight your path to His Church. He has conquered death by death!
@@Joshualbatross I know. Fairly universally, Orthodox doesn't use musical instruments in their hymns or liturgies. But the cross is like the one I wear (Russian Orthodox) and it reminded me of the other hymn I found on this channel. Take care and be well.
Blessings to you from an Orthodox Christian in Pennsylvania ☦️☦️☦️❤️

Thank you very much for this. Thank you. Honestly, thank you. In the process of finding my way into Orthodoxy.
