I’m 19 years old, it’s so hard to be a Christian teenager and many teenagers don’t believe in Jesus but i want them to believe in Jesus I’ll pray for them everyday and I’ll keep my faith forever
Keep it up, even if it means standing alone. You will NEVER regret being on God’s side. I am in my 20s, I have so many friends full of heart breaking regrets because of bad decisions and neglecting biblical principles.
I too felt this same way when I was your age. I was in college & joined the Baptist Student Union, where I met wonderful Christian friends who made me feel welcomed & loved. Although I felt very burdened by a sense of who I was & wanted to know the truth of how to change my life from all the hurting. I hope you see my message and that you are in a better place. Jesus calls us as individuals, so in different ways. so I will pray that your heart is closer to Jesus & you know how much he cares & loves you.
You're wise beyond your years, dear. In my 70th year, I am testament to the power of prayer and unshakable faith in Jesus Christ. Found this song with your comment on the occasion of laying to rest my dear sweet kitten. Coincidentally, it is dedicated to Lois & that is my name!😊 keep the faith! 💖🤗🥰
April 16,2022 @4:29 am I'm on duty , patient rebuked my fellow security guard. I'm posted outside the room playing this song on my phone,poor man is anxious and confused,somewhat aggressive. Please pray for everyone going through dementia, parkinson's and related illnesses that affect the brain, in Jesus mighty name Amen
Feb. 3,2023 @11:01am I'm a caregiver for an elderly patient with dementia who just had a rough morning. After settling her into her recliner, I played this song for her. She is now relaxed and sleeping. God is good! He calms the confusion and brings rest to the soul and mind. ❤️
@@Marie-xm1gu Thanks for your entry (as well for the security guard’s original post). I took a unit of Clinical Pastoral Education many years ago and was assigned to an adult day care ward. As well as to another ward with full time residents, some of whole had dementia. People with dementia tend to feel lost and often don’t know why. As a student chaplain, what I did was bring my guitar and played old time hymns similar to this song. It always made the difference. Even those who couldn’t remember their names, suddenly were able to remember the lyrics of songs like How Great Thou Art. Music, especially worship music, has an unique ability to bring the best of out of us. When David played his harp in Saul’s Court - it brought Saul peace of mind (and King Saul likely had a terrible case of dementia going-on at the time) There is a beautiful movie called A Trip to Bountiful and it’s on UA-cam. They haven’t taken it down. Softly and Tenderly is the theme song. Check it out. God bless
David, I don't know what your prayer needs are, but I just now did lift you up to my Jesus. May the peace that passes all understanding softy rest on your sweet soul. He knows you by name. You are His. 💜💜💜💜💜
I still need these hymns in 2023... I pray God helps us to know his voice in this world of noise and that he will help us to listen to his voice which is the only one that makes a difference. In Jesus's name Amen.
I got baptized today and this song was sung, most awesome day of my life. will always love this song. God is so mighty, He will take us through anything unscathed as long as we surrender to Him
Why should we worry when Jesus is pleading, Jesus is pleading for you and I. Why should we linger and hear not his mercies, his mercies for you and for me, his mercies for you and I. Come home, come home, come home, ye who are weary come home. Earnestly and tenderly Jesus is calling, Jesus is calling for you and I.
I heard of an elderly couple, the wife prayed for her husband to get saved for 70 years. He was never ''ready'' he said. Then one day he sweetly turned to Jesus and called on Him as Lord and Savior. 2 weeks later he passed away.
Finally- a hymn that is sung properly, at a proper tempo, with good harmony and no jazzed up instrumentals. It almost seems as thought people have forgotten how to sing hymns, perhaps because so many have forgotten hymns altogether. Hymns have largely been replaced by "christianized" pop music performed by entertainers.
As a baby I was nursed to sleep by my grandmother rocking me and singing this hymn. That was 75 years ago, and I have always loved it. I have never heard it sung more beautifully. Thank you. So many of these Gospel hymns have been left out of modern hymn books because it is felt that they are too emotional and sentimental. But how can we embrace the love of Jesus without emotion?
I don't think teens of my age like these but I do, there is no cool stuff that can take away me from Jesus's love. His word is true, and these hymns actually lead me to Jesus. NO DOUBT MY FAVOURITE BEDTIME HYMN
I’m a teen, and I’m a huge fan of very traditional hymns. I just want a piano and sheet music that was sung in the 1800s and I’m chilling for life forever.
It is written: Psalm 92: 1 "It is a good thing to give thanks unto the LORD, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High: 2 To shew forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night, 3 Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp with a solemn sound."
I’ve been trying to get my son to sleep for 3 hours. He was scared by all the Halloween decorations he’s seen over the past few weeks. This song put him right to sleep. Thanks be to the Great Comforter.
Of course, we should be scared to death with all the demonic exhibitions. You see, the effect it has on your son is the intended result the devil worshippers want to achieve. The servants of the devil want you to believe that it is just an entertainment. Softly and tenderly Jesus is calling. Your son has experienced the difference.
Mom fading fast-won't be with us more than another few hours. This song came into my heart💖 Love you, Mom. Thank you, Jesus, for softly and tenderly taking her Home!+!+!+
When we all get to heaven What a day of rejoicing that will be. When we all see Jesus We'll sing and shout for VICTORY! Victory in Jesus My savior forever He sought me, and He bought me with his redeeming blood.. He called me err I knew Him and all my love is due Him He plunged me to victory with His redeeming blood! Hallelujah!!
Thank you Sherwin, we need to return to this way of believing, thinking & feeling in this country & all over the world. Let it be so, in the name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen.
I am a brazilian catholic born and my life just completly changed since I was baptized in the SDA church. I lived in America when I was in my early 20's but only back in Brazil did I get to know the best that America has to offer: the SDA Church, wich is where I find the real Christian teachings and see my life being transformed. Thank You Jesus.
The SDA church is a false church sister. Ellen G. White is satanic and a false prophet. Save yourself before it is too late. Please let me know if u want me to send u a few videos to easily refute their heresy. Your very soul is at stake. 🙏💚
Jesus is still at the door calling to make the difference in your life. Why refuse him. tomorrow may be late. decide now and believe in him and you never regret ever doing so .a great invitation to all.... very emotional.
Mamaluchka H. Yes. I certainly agree. Whenever I stray in my walk, talk and thoughts as I endeavor by the Holy Spirit's help to journey with God the Father. It fits me every minute of every day when the Holy Spirit points out my erring ways. Today was one such day. He led me to Matthew 18 on forgiving others always, especially when they cause you to sin; and then, by His Spirit, He led me to this beautiful hymn of His mercy, grace and love toward us all. Thank you Lord Jesus and thank you brother. In Christ with you, Arlette McNeill
I think what the bible is saying is that heaven is a world without fear or threats, filled with people of the world united as one to achieve common goals, which is where the world is heading, but that is no thanks to people who deny the truth. The bible is a great book but needs to be updated so that kids can understand and relate to it.
For this beautiful hymn helps people to decern & to hear Gods call to A life of service or to come home to the Catholic church for in his church the minute we cross the threshold as we enter into his Holy Church we are in his presence with his arms open wide calling to you to come home to the true Faith of the Roman Catholic church
My mom died January 15, 1987. I was pregnant with my youngest son, and 33 years old. Tomorrow my momma will have been gone 29 years. I miss her and wish she could have lived to see her youngest Grandchild's birth. This song always touches me deeply and the first time I heard it was during the show "The Trip To Bountiful." I had tears and thought immediately of my momma. What a wonderful song that gives such hope and helps to remain steadfast in our/my faith in Jesus! Thank you Lord for giving people such wonderful gifts, as this song, to share with us!
I love songs that calm the soul as we understand the great love that God has for all. He love is beyond understanding that He cares for all people in giving His only Son to die in our place because of our sin. We will some day be able to bow down and give Him perfect praise for making everything necessary to make heaven our eternal home. Heaven is looking better all the time.
I'm a backslider but I'm glad to so much that this song were calling me again to come home and return to him, help me please coz I'm weak oh lord my God,
Jonathan sebastian, I’d strongly recommend you spend more time in the Word of God and in prayer. DL Moody used to sign Bibles and he’d write “this book will keep you out of sin, or sin will keep you out of this book.”
I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. I play the piano and organ. Today (March 6, Lent 4), we sang this as the Hymn of the Day. Ditto for me as I filled in at a local Lutheran Church. It is #608 in Evangelical Lutheran Worship.
LOIS is my aunt's name. My last aunt and the one to whom I've been the closest all my life. A lifelong deeply devout Christian, she is approaching 94 and is now suffering from dementia. I ask all who read this to pray for her. She has been a lovely human being and is suffering so now. I pray she is made whole again when she crosses over. 🙏🕯🙏
through this I remember my childhood huhuhu when I was 1yearold to 14yearold I and mom leaving at the mountain side very far from our neighborhood we only hear the birds sound and all kinds of animal sound I really miss that time ,sometimes I'll cry if recall those memorable experience with my mom and every Sunday my mom brought me to the church that was a very good things that her legacy to me ,and now I'm already 27 years old and my mom is 67yearsold and I'm very far from her I'm working outside the country and my brother taking care of her and I'm so bless coz God gave her a good health and I pray that God will continue giving her a long life and I love you Jesus Christ ...
Not true. It feels and appears so but true. Many live in total obedience to God's will but its not a faith that publicly declared. Am a Christian and a proud one at that. Am here because the holy spirit gave me this as I discussed one or two things with him. It was His reply amongst others to me. Keep up the faith and God bless and increase you
Oh God ,my prayers flow from my lips Lord … My Gloria called Jesus and he swept her up and welcomed her home a year and a half ago ,Oh God I was so undeserving of the Angle you loaned to me, but I am forever grateful Lord for Your love and mercies ! What a beautiful song to feel the presence of Jesus during our storms...
One of the most beautiful hymns I know that reminds me of the price Jesus paid for us, then asks us to come to Him as we are, ready to receive us if we are willing and obedient. Though we strive so much to make "a living", the true living as we know it shall be through what He has prepared for us in the life to come, eternally with Him in our new homes prepared for us by our Lord. Indeed Lord Jesus, we have found great refuge in Your presence and look forward to when You will either come back to rule here on earth or You call us "home" to You. Maranatha!
I can never thank you enough for your playlists! They are like a breath from heaven! I have shared some of the songs with my wayward son and they have been instrumental in his return to faith. Only in eternity will you know how many you have blessed!
we played this song at my grandfathers funeral. i miss him soooo much. and i get tearey eyed everytime i hear this song. God will help me. thank you for addin this song.
I'm thinking how blessed I'm to be apart of this to spread the word of God / gospel throughout the entire world. Without me asking anyone to assign me to anything. Who could it be but God himself??.
@@jessiemontgomery5838 While I appreciate what you are trying to do (really I do!) but it would take mountains of evidence if I'm every going to believe that there is a supernatural super-being living outside of the spacetime continuum that has communicated with humans by such bizarre means as a talking donkey! I mean... donkey's can't speak Hebrew
This is the very song sung during the end of evangelistic sermon that invited me to come to Christ Jesus my Savior and Lord. I cannot remember the sermon or part of it, but this song and tune stayed on in my mind. Thank you my Lord and my God.
My very favorite humm of all time..I remember singing this every Sunday at church as people were called up front to accept Jesus into their hearts and minds..
If you are not in a right relationship with God, ask yourself what you are waiting for to get right with HIM so that you may be with HIM in eternity in Heaven. Hope this hymn will influence someone to look deeply within themselves and make their soul's condition with our Lord.
Here's a poem for all who get weary in any circumstance. . A special read for John Keefer and Lois.. I wrote it when I moved into stage 4 inoperable cancer. WAITING ON THE LORD by I. Jackson copyright 2014 Help me my Lord, what should I do? I’ll now let go and now let you, guide me oh Lord and heal my soul from heavy heart with painful goal. I called you boldly not in shame. Where were you my Lord when I called your name? I prayed to you with so much praise I prayed to you for so many a days. Did you not see me dance for you, while silently singing a song or two? My hands held high to give you praise Come help your child, end earthly days. I’m crying out, what more to do? With solemn faith I've waited for you. He then spoke softly in my ear So sweet, so kind, I had no fear . “My child you are able to think and write, I have been with you both day and night, I will act in due time, keep your faithful stand, It’s MY will be done for I Am That I Am.” dance = Holy Ghost dancing
I love this also. I am in 4th stage inoperable cancer. I look for soothing songs on You Tube. You Tube and it's comforting songs is a blessing to me Softly and Tenderly is a favorite, it is such a beautiful song it fills me with hope of a beautiful next life. I hope Lois recovers and send her my prayers.. It is so touch going through cancer but I still greet people with a smile and try to stay positive. God works miracles is it's his will. Please send Lois the above poem that I wrote one night when I was despondent.
Ivy jackson Nine months is a long time. I trust that since you were here, listening to the Christ-honoring music that our brother Sherwin has posted here, that you are born again. If that's the case, I suspect there will be some, perhaps many, who will miss you when you go to be with the Lord. Look at it this way. You have lived in a little shack down here on earth for as long as you can remember. Right over the hill is a beautiful mansion, made perfectly, just for you!! I hope you can go there rejoicing. John 14:2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
No wonder you loved this song so much, beautiful Daddy. This is for you. I love you and miss you so much, we all do. Please pray for us. And please enjoy your eternity with God, Jesus and Mary, all the Angels and Saints, and with Mommy and everyone else. Good night Daddy, I love you and miss you, see you later😘🤗😘🤗😘🤗💚🌺💚✝️🕊🙏🏻
This is the song that was sung when I was saved, I'm sad sometimes to think that my granddaughter will never hear this song in church, but I will teach it to her.
GOD IS ALWAYS calling us! But there are distinctive moments in this call of his, moments which leave a permanent mark on us- moments which we never forget
I had much the same experience in my Church. I had never heard this hymn before until a woman did a solo performance. Must confess it wad all I could do to hold the tears back. I too wishvwe had more old hymns in Church instead of the happy - clappy politically correct stuff we have to endure.
I’m 19 years old, it’s so hard to be a Christian teenager and many teenagers don’t believe in Jesus but i want them to believe in Jesus I’ll pray for them everyday and I’ll keep my faith forever

I get so much more comfort and encouragement out of the Old Hymns. It breaks my heart that we don't get more of it in our church!

Today, I attended the funeral of one of my mother's friends at a local Presbyterian Church. She lived to be 102. This was the Processional Hymn.
I love songs that calm the soul as we understand the great love that God has for all. He love is beyond understanding that He cares for all people in giving His only Son to die in our place because of our sin. We will some day be able to bow down and give Him perfect praise for making everything necessary to make heaven our eternal home. Heaven is looking better all the time.
That's right.

Jonathan sebastian, I’d strongly recommend you spend more time in the Word of God and in prayer. DL Moody used to sign Bibles and he’d write “this book will keep you out of sin, or sin will keep you out of this book.”
I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. I play the piano and organ. Today (March 6, Lent 4), we sang this as the Hymn of the Day. Ditto for me as I filled in at a local Lutheran Church. It is #608 in Evangelical Lutheran Worship.
LOIS is my aunt's name. My last aunt and the one to whom I've been the closest all my life.
A lifelong deeply devout Christian, she is approaching 94 and is now suffering from dementia.
I ask all who read this to pray for her. She has been a lovely human being and is suffering so now. I pray she is made whole again when she crosses over.
🙏🕯🙏
Divine intervention in Jesus name Amen 🙏
Thank you lord Jesus for loving us in Jesus name

The song 'Softly and Tenderly's is speaking to us who are alive now, to heed to God's pleading and accept him in to our lives.
Hello how are you doing?
I will never forget my Grandfather singing this in church.
Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thous shalt be saved, and thy house
this song got me tears.
Agreed, old huyms have pure messages, bring me so close to my Saviour. The new songs are just happy flappy entertainment.
God is still calling you and for me to make our way right with him before it's too late. But no one is inclining their ears unto him anymore.
Not true. It feels and appears so but true. Many live in total obedience to God's will but its not a faith that publicly declared. Am a Christian and a proud one at that. Am here because the holy spirit gave me this as I discussed one or two things with him. It was His reply amongst others to me. Keep up the faith and God bless and increase you
Oh God ,my prayers flow from my lips Lord … My Gloria called Jesus and he swept her up and welcomed her home a year and a half ago ,Oh God I was so undeserving of the Angle you loaned to me, but I am forever grateful Lord for Your love and mercies ! What a beautiful song to feel the presence of Jesus during our storms...
Hal what a blessing!! Our future is already settled in heaven. Jesus shed his blood
so that we could have eternal life with our redeemer.
You MUST endure until the END to be saved!
ofcos, God is calling for you and for me...... so lovely. may God bless you people
One of the most beautiful hymns I know that reminds me of the price Jesus paid for us, then asks us to come to Him as we are, ready to receive us if we are willing and obedient.
Though we strive so much to make "a living", the true living as we know it shall be through what He has prepared for us in the life to come, eternally with Him in our new homes prepared for us by our Lord.
Indeed Lord Jesus, we have found great refuge in Your presence and look forward to when You will either come back to rule here on earth or You call us "home" to You.
Maranatha!
Amen brother!
Amen
Amen 🙏
AMEN! COME QUICKLY OUR BLESSED KING!
So beautiful that Jesus is calling you now.
Come unto me, ye who are weary and overburdened, and I
will give you rest.- Matthew 11:28
Come home ye who are weary come home Jesus os calling us let us hold fast not get weary
When my sister was murdered this hymn came to my mind R I P Dana
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are!
- I John 3:1
Beautiful message, sleep in peace Lois, with Jesus!!
I can never thank you enough for your playlists! They are like a breath from heaven! I have shared some of the songs with my wayward son and they have been instrumental in his return to faith. Only in eternity will you know how many you have blessed!
This is one of the many songs I want played at my funeral when it's my time.
Softly and Tenderly is one of my favorite gospel hymns. Such a beautiful song
2020 What a great moment to remember that Jesus is near and pleading for you and for me even during pandemic.
we played this song at my grandfathers funeral. i miss him soooo much. and i get tearey eyed everytime i hear this song. God will help me. thank you for addin this song.
How dare they 26 dislike towards our Lord and saviour??!! If they who dislikes, leaving is a simple action to be taken. May you not insult our Lord!
Got saved to this song❤
Just so beautiful. I Love Jesus. The king of all kings 🙏
Very true if one is not saved he is waiting for us
Sing it as a prayer to your unsaved family members🎶🌹🙏🎶🌹🙏🎶 I am 😇
I'm thinking how blessed I'm to be apart of this to spread the word of God / gospel throughout the entire world. Without me asking anyone to assign me to anything. Who could it be but God himself??.
May the Lord bless the composer of this hymn in Jesus name. And may the world heed the call
I'm an atheist now but this song still resonates in my heart
You may be an atheist, but maybe your heart isn’t.
@@jessiemontgomery5838 While I appreciate what you are trying to do (really I do!) but it would take mountains of evidence if I'm every going to believe that there is a supernatural super-being living outside of the spacetime continuum that has communicated with humans by such bizarre means as a talking donkey! I mean... donkey's can't speak Hebrew
With songs like this, it's easy to see why God created music. It speaks to us in a way that almost no one can and captures our minds and hearts.
We sang this beautiful in the 50's at church
In Emerg again with gut pain. This is a great hymn of consolationm
Hello how are you doing?
This is the very song sung during the end of evangelistic sermon that invited me to come to Christ Jesus my Savior and Lord. I cannot remember the sermon or part of it, but this song and tune stayed on in my mind. Thank you my Lord and my God.
How can anyone dislike this beautiful and meaningful hymn!!!
Hello how are you doing..?
I don't say today's form of youth praise and worship is bad. But I have a feeling that the youth of today are forgetting good hymns like these.
My very favorite humm of all time..I remember singing this every Sunday at church as people were called up front to accept Jesus into their hearts and minds..
Hello 👋 how are you doing?😊
Jesus is Lord of all.
If you are not in a right relationship with God, ask yourself what you are waiting for to get right with HIM so that you may be with HIM in eternity in Heaven. Hope this hymn will influence someone to look deeply within themselves and make their soul's condition with our Lord.
Here's a poem for all who get weary in any circumstance. . A special read for John Keefer and Lois.. I wrote it when I moved into stage 4 inoperable cancer.
WAITING ON THE LORD by I. Jackson copyright 2014
Help me my Lord, what should I do?
I’ll now let go and now let you,
guide me oh Lord and heal my soul
from heavy heart with painful goal.
I called you boldly not in shame.
Where were you my Lord when I called your name?
I prayed to you with so much praise
I prayed to you for so many a days.
Did you not see me dance for you,
while silently singing a song or two?
My hands held high to give you praise
Come help your child, end earthly days.
I’m crying out, what more to do?
With solemn faith I've waited for you.
He then spoke softly in my ear
So sweet, so kind, I had no fear
.
“My child you are able to think and write,
I have been with you both day and night,
I will act in due time, keep your faithful stand,
It’s MY will be done for I Am That I Am.”
dance = Holy Ghost dancing
Ivy, thank you for sharing that lovely poem. May you find comfort, as you face illness.
Ivy jackson thanks for sharing
Ivy Jackson: This is encouraging me right now in Jesus' name. Thank you.
Arlette McNeill
Bless you. That is so touching and means so much to me and my struggle right now..God is good. I am trying to learn patience. 🙏🙏🙏✌
Keep faith! God is with you!
I love this also. I am in 4th stage inoperable cancer. I look for soothing songs on You Tube. You Tube and it's comforting songs is a blessing to me Softly and Tenderly is a favorite, it is such a beautiful song it fills me with hope of a beautiful next life. I hope Lois recovers and send her my prayers.. It is so touch going through cancer but I still greet people with a smile and try to stay positive. God works miracles is it's his will. Please send Lois the above poem that I wrote one night when I was despondent.
I hope our lord Jesus Christ gives you all the comfort you seek.
Ivy jackson Nine months is a long time. I trust that since you were here, listening to the Christ-honoring music that our brother Sherwin has posted here, that you are born again. If that's the case, I suspect there will be some, perhaps many, who will miss you when you go to be with the Lord. Look at it this way. You have lived in a little shack down here on earth for as long as you can remember. Right over the hill is a beautiful mansion, made perfectly, just for you!! I hope you can go there rejoicing.
John 14:2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
God loves and needs you. Just trust Him.
Matthew 28 :20
And I am with you always , until the end of time . "
I am very sorry to hear about the cancer. I hope the Great Physician heals you completely and gives you rest and comfort until He calls you home.
No wonder you loved this song so much, beautiful Daddy. This is for you. I love you and miss you so much, we all do. Please pray for us. And please enjoy your eternity with God, Jesus and Mary, all the Angels and Saints, and with Mommy and everyone else. Good night Daddy, I love you and miss you, see you later😘🤗😘🤗😘🤗💚🌺💚✝️🕊🙏🏻
Hello how are you doing?
The Christian music ministry has become the Christian music industry
great hymn
This is the song that was sung when I was saved, I'm sad sometimes to think that my granddaughter will never hear this song in church, but I will teach it to her.
I am going thru a hard time in my life this hymn reminds me that Jesus loves me!
This sobering song reminds me of the old, old days of my childhood. It revives my faith in the Lord
God bless you my brother 🙏
GOD IS ALWAYS calling us! But there are distinctive moments in this call of his, moments which leave a permanent mark on us-
moments which we never forget
You are so right Judith. No wonder how the Holy spirit work on hearts
I had much the same experience in my Church. I had never heard this hymn before until a woman did a solo performance. Must confess it wad all I could do to hold the tears back. I too wishvwe had more old hymns in Church instead of the happy - clappy politically correct stuff we have to endure.
To go home where he has prepared a place for us in heaven
This song is so beautiful, I see Jesus telling me come home. God you are so wonderful. God is dunamis power. 🕌
