    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.

    If it makes you cry... that's not a bad thing. It touches you that deeply. Best compliment you can pay God and the music that provides such emotion. Throw your hands in the air sing at the top of your lungs and cry God's got you wrapped up!

    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

I too, much like your husband, have accepted the Lord’s calling to be His servant. However, I have a somewhat different calling from your husband’s calling. I have a specific calling related supporting as well as engaging in the Partnership for Peace Program to 2nd world European countries. Our lord works in mysterious and compelling ways. Pat

    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^

    We just got a new priest at our church this week. This song is so fitting for the occasion. Change is never easy, but to have this song play at his first weekend masses here just hit differently.

    This was a song at my Dads funeral. You all sang it amazingly!!! And your musical accompaniment was beautiful!!! This arrangement is so powerful!!!! I cried at my Dads funeral when this song was sung, and I sobbed now, 7 years later. I am a firm believer that music should invoke feelings, and everyone involved should be pleased they touched someone’s life, even if just for 7min & 28sec. Thank you, for sharing your talents!!! 💕

      I didn't think this was a funeral hymn ?Sorry about your dad. My Dad died 6 years ago- His hymn was How Great Thou Art.

    I believe this is the best performance of this hymn..every singer and musicians here played a beautiful part, reminds me when I was an altar boy and singing in church. Master class performance. Wish I was there.. God bless ❤
