When I was in a liturgical choir member , this is one of the hardest piece aside from the “ HALLELUJAH” Too much high the notes specially I belong to Soprano 1. But believe me when u know how to feel this song and sing this with all ur heart... it’s like when all together blend their voices, it’s like 1 voice singing. And every time we sang this song, it never fails me to make me cry... with all my heart and soul...I GLORY THE NAME OF GOD ABOVE ALL.🙏
AMEN!!! Agreed! Tried this in our grand choir.. i didn't make it. i just cried. haha but yeahh.. still makes me cry up to this date. take care y'all wherever you are! Nov. 14, 2020
I'm singing it tomorrow but the men's part are not as hard. I've sung it once before a couple of years ago, but was unable to make it to the rehearsal so I'm going in cold turkey. Thankful to have this video to practice with.
I just love this song. I’m a first soprano too and the Spirit just leads to hit these high notes. All praise to God. I just picture myself with many others singing this song when I get to heaven. Tears always flow with this beautiful song!!
I heard this song this morning on the radio. I had heard it before, but I've wanted to listen to it several times today, and this evening, this version made me cry. I appreciate the verses shown also. That is a very beautiful sanctuary, too.
Neither are real Christians...they are just enamored and in love with the relationship they have with a loving Heavenly Father through the finished work of Jesus Christ, the Father's Son, who willingly died on a cross, was tortured and she'd His innocent blood for the sins of all men, women, boys, and girls...and then by the power of that God, was raised from the dead. You can dive into that same love relationship.
This was the first hymn I fell in love with when I just became a believer in 1986. A gentleman at my job handed me a little casette tape with music from his chuch's choir and I must have worn it out listening to it over and over again. The way I began to think about whether there was a God or not was a night when my parents came to visit from out of town so my mom and I slept in my bed under a window, right before I fell asleep my mother (who was a beliver and had been praying for me ) began to talk about the stars we could see and how it must have been marvelous the way God made all that is in the skies. I began to almost see with my mind's eye what seemed to be the formation of planets and constellations as I fell asleep. From that night I began my search and found Jesus!! Or, shoudl I say, He found me. Praise the Lord I found this song performed so beautifully by this choir, it sounds exactly like the one I heard so many times so many years ago. I believe it was a baptist church in San Antonio TX that had was on that long lost cassette tape. I played it for my husband as I heard it for the first time now and it brought us both to tears. Thank you Jesus for giving this talent to people, to write such a song and for these beautiful voices to perform it so magnificentrly. God bless you, the director, the pastor of that church, all that attend there. Our God reigns!!!!
I just witnessed the solar eclipse earlier this afternoon. I live in the path of totality. Once the moon completely covered the sun & we were able to view it for a few minutes without the glasses, besides feeling awe, this song immediately came to mind. I had to listen to it it again. I sang it years ago in my church's choir, & it has always been a favorite. "When I gaze into the night sky and see the work of his fingers, the moon and stars suspended in space, oh what is man..." Magnificent.
We're just a small congregation here in the Philippines, but we still sing this kind of music in our church, how blessed we are to sing and hear this kind of music.
Choir singer who has done this for church many times. This is never just a song when I perform it. This is an experience. It’s asking the universe “who am I in all this vastness” and God answers by showing you the vastness inside yourself. We’re all universes within the universe, each unique and wonderful. This piece encompasses all of that. You don’t sing it or listen to it, you experience it.
I just thought about this song today. I remember singing this in school choir and every single time we did the "alleluia" part, singing that second Soprano part gave me absolute CHILLS. No other song feels as good to sing and I feel like this must be the feeling of singing God's glory in heaven. Just otherworldly. Such a beautiful song.
Tom Fettle was endowed by God with rare and exceptional composing powers when he wrote this anthem. Glory to God. Thank you FBC Dallas for such a great job.
I have sung this with 2 different choirs at 2 churches. One of the most beautiful songs ever written, especially for a choir, for sure. I actually came down the aisle to this at my wedding, I love it so much.
During the eclipse today, this was the anthem that came to my mind and out of my mouth. All of the commentators I listened to today in Texas and others along the path of Totality talked about how the clouds covered the sky until the exact moment of Totality and then as if they were ripped open, there was the total eclipse in all of its glory. I also experienced this sitting on my front porch ... clouds and then majesty and glory revealed. I almost could hear God say, "THIS... is who I AM". Please read Psalm 8 as a reference point for this song.
Sang this song over 30 years ago. Conducted it in my own choir 20 years ago. Still know all my tenor part. That transition at 3:08 still gives me chills as my memories of singing this on tours and on stage come flooding back into my mind
Stepped outside. The stars are gleaming. Big Dipper! Venus! Alleluia! Had to go into the house and get my phone, and bring it outside so I could hear the choir adore the majesty and glory of his name while viewing His handiwork!
I'm an alto that had opportunity to present this as an ensemble and I too, cry every time. This piece is anointed, Sprirt filled straight from the Scriptures. This choir and orchestra have given a magnificent representation. Thank you!
What a wonderful anthem. My own church has done this one a couple times, too. With less people and no orchestra, of course. Still, we made a joyful noise onto The Lord.
The choir I belong to, Senoia United Methodist Church of Senoia, Ga, has sung this several times & it always brings chills to me. It also lifts me up. I appreciate Dallas FBC choir for sharing this masterpiece! We need these words in this time we are in.
Soy de Chile, escuchar este himno por estos hermanos me hace pensar como Dios ha sido tan bueno con nosotros oh que maravilla la Gloria de Dios sobre su creación.Oh Jehová Señor nuestro cuán grande es tu nombre en toda la tierra. Tú Señor eres el soberano de este mundo, a ti y sólo a ti sea la Gloria por los siglos de los siglos, bendiciones desde Santiago de Chile. Sorry for my English I am from Chile, listening to this hymn by these brothers makes me think how God has been so good to us oh how wonderful the Glory of God is over his creation. O Jehovah Lord our how great is your name in all the earth. You Lord are the sovereign of this world, to you and only to you be the Glory for ever and ever, blessings from Santiago de Chile.
When I walk through the gates of Heaven, it will not surprise me to hear thousands of choirs and angels singing this to God the Almighty. God has given us on earth the Gift of Music to get a glimpse of what Heaven will be like. Thanks be to God for Music...Art Scott, Minister of Music
I love this Song, The very words come out of The Bible ( Psalm 8 : 3 -9 ) I cry and Sing along with them every time I hear it , The Holy Spirit Reveals His Holiness, Power & His Majesty How can we Not Weep with Joy Over The Almighty God The Creator of The Entire Universe * Jesus * 🙏✝️🙏
When I belonged to a pretty big Baptist church a few years ago. I was in the choir and we had the opportunity to sing this. Very complex but beautiful song! One of my favorites to this day!
This is one of my favorites. A few years back, I was in Utah (Natural Bridges Nat’l Monument) in the dead of night. It is the darkest of dark skies. No light pollution. You could look up and see the Milky Way blazing across the sky. You could see Andromeda galaxy with a naked eye. And this song kept playing in my head over and over. I honestly cannot comprehend how one could look up into the night sky and see “the works of [His] fingers” and deny the existence of God. The night sky and indeed all creation SCREAMS out the existence of God.
One of the mist moving pieces to ever be sung. I was moved to tears as the choir began to sing the phrase "Alleluia, Alleluia". I especially enjoyed the expressions on many of choir members. There was worship being shared by the joy and passion expressed in their faces. The young, male tenor featured several times and center screen at the end was especially great in his facial expressions and presentation of the message. The choir was awesome over all with great sound and dynamics. It blessed my spirit as I know it gave great glory to God.
It has been transforming for me every time our choir has sung this piece. As a choir we were privileged to be led in a choral workshop by Tom Fettke, who directed this piece for us on Sunday. I'll never forget it. I feel the spirit moving through the words of this hymn. We are so fortunate to have so many gifted composer/arrangers who devote their gifts to telling the story of God's salvation. Amen.
I sang in the choir at First Baptist Church, Fort Smith, Arkansas. This was our pastor, Dr. William Bennett’s favorite! It still transports me to a better place when I hear it so worshipfully performed! Glory to God!
It's been several years since I heard this piece sung and the harmonies in your choir are beautiful. Can't wait to hear the singing when we all are together in Heaven singing to the Lord. How very different from the noise and clamour of the world's music.
As a bass, I remember this song having a nearly 2 octave range! Difficult to sing, however it is lyrically one of the best songs I’ve heard in a while!
When I gaze into the night skies and see the work of your fingers; The moon and stars suspended in space. (oh, what is man?) Oh, what is man that you are mindful of him? You have given man a crown of glory and honor, And have made him a little lower than the angels. You have put him in charge of all creation: The beasts of the field The birds of the air, The fish of the sea. Oh, what is man? (oh, what is man?) Oh, what is man that you are mindful of him? O Lord, our God the majesty and glory of your name Transcends the earth and fills the heavens. O Lord, our God; little children praise You perfectly, And so would we. And so would we. Alleluia! Alleluia! The majesty and glory of Your name. Alleluia! Alleluia! The majesty and glory of Your name. Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! (Alleluia!)

Wow! Beautiful message sung by the choir, All in robes. No music. Notes projected on a screen for both choir and audience to see. Great musical accompaniment. Thanks for sending this worshipful rendition to me.
Wow !! I heard this too on Faith Radio yesterday !!!! This is one of my favorite choir songs. I sang it with my church choir many moons ago. This is a magnificent song ! Praise be to God! It is easy to praise the Lord when there is music like this !!
From child God peaceful:I am is I am the Lion (Water life),a child of God Yesus (Isay Moses Holy spirit).Peacefull for all of you.Calmness never like Confusion and Confusion never like Calmness .God bless for all of you.
I was part of my school's varsity choir and we sang this during baccalaureate (a sort of church service for seniors the day before graduation). It was very powerful, I'm glad I discovered it.
Our Choir at S. Tulsa Baptist under the direction of Philip Stephens will sing this again after several years this Sunday. Honestly, I have great difficulty not weeping when I sing it. It so perfectly places God and his Majesty and Glory in my very soul!!
We are singing this piece again Sunday for the retirement of our Minister of Music and his wife. Philip and Mary Anne have led our wonderful music for 32 years!!! May God Bless them abundantly for their wonderful service to God at South Tulsa Baptist Church. We will miss them.
We should not criticize the message of our Lord, especially when it doesn't meet 'our' expectations in choral deliveries. I truly believe the content of this piece is right on target with its message........how can we, mere humans, stand in the presence of Almighty God and not cower down in reverential fear? We must sing Alleluia! to the King of Kings and nothing less!
Oh, the whole "it's ok that it sucks if it's for the Lord" way of thinking, eh? Nope, sorry. It's that kind of thinking and excuse making that got choirs kicked out of the church in the first place.
Does God not deserve nothing less than the VERY best? The sacrifices presented to God were without spot and without blemish. Just because it is "church music" doesn't mean that it's ok to not sing correctly.
@@ohmusicsweetmusic this is correct. Are we okay with a slovenly, unprepared message from the man of God? Then why do we not put everything in decency and order as the Lord Himself, to the best of our ability? Before the temple was consecrated 200,000 singers, and 200,000 instrumentalists practiced for years before being able to step in to play and sing. We must pray and prepare, worship but also work in music. If Christ gave me his best, should I not give him mine, in all life including my music offerings to him? Yes there is being led of the Spirit, but when Paul spoke to Timothy of preaching, he admonished him to study to show himself approved unto God. Although not directly to a musician or singer, I think the principle is there as well, to do everything as unto the Lord for his pleasure and glory. Now I agree not all a choir or all the folks in churches need a music degree to sing for the Lord but there should be both heartfelt preparation as well as musical practice. All this though stems from a love of the Lord. Alright I’m getting off my soap box. 😁
A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened.
Southwest Baptist Church (in OKC) has a great music ministry! Their choir alone is the size of some smaller congregations and both they and the congregation really know how to sing with conviction and purpose. I found them searching for good, congregational recordings of my favorite hymns, as it's so nice to be able to pull up some real (traditional) worship music at the end of a long day! (I'm an IFB from the Minneapolis, MN area and their church is so similar to mine it's uncanny! But it's great someone from Southwest Baptist uploaded a ton of those videos for people's worship and edification, as even a lot of churches with great music ministries tend not to publish much online.) They'd definitely be worth a visit, even if it's a bit of a drive! I definitely know which church I'll be visiting if I'm ever in the OKC area!
From child God peaceful:I am is I am the Lion (Water life),a child of God Yesus (Isay Moses Holy spirit). Peaceful for all of you.Who want life be desire to avoid death.!!!God bless for all of you.
I dearly miss singing this song & others like this in our churches today. What a way to worship with words straight from the Scriptures.

I’m not religious, but this is the nicest comment section I’ve ever seen.

I was in church choir 11 years .it was very special and helped me in my life .all the songs are a prayer to our Lord,.
I have loved this song intently our choir sang this around 30 years ago and it still raptures my souls before my God.
We're just a small congregation here in the Philippines, but we still sing this kind of music in our church, how blessed we are to sing and hear this kind of music.

Hope we all could sing this beautiful song together in heaven ..
Search the song, "When we all get to heaven" its a beautiful piece.
The beautiful presence of the Holy Spirit . Praise Him O people of the earth.
I miss singing this when I was a choir member in college. This always gives me goosebumps all the time. Praise God.
I just thought about this song today. I remember singing this in school choir and every single time we did the "alleluia" part, singing that second Soprano part gave me absolute CHILLS.

Had the extreme privilege of singing this with the Mimosa Lane Baptist Church choir so many years ago. Hauntingly beautiful. Always in my heart.
Sang this song over 30 years ago. Conducted it in my own choir 20 years ago. Still know all my tenor part. That transition at 3:08 still gives me chills as my memories of singing this on tours and on stage come flooding back into my mind
Woke up first thing with the song on my heart so couldn’t finish the day without a sing along!
Stepped outside. The stars are gleaming. Big Dipper! Venus!
Alleluia! Had to go into the house and get my phone, and bring it outside so I could hear the choir adore the majesty and glory of his name while viewing His handiwork!
That's thinking!
This still makes me cry everytime i hear this song
every time. 😇
Same!
It is very beautiful
Me too
EVERYTIMEEEEE!!!!! God keeps us safe in these trying times
I feel God’s Spirit flowing through me when I hear and sing this beautiful work.
Our choir sang this. I always cry, Alleluia!
I'm an alto that had opportunity to present this as an ensemble and I too, cry every time. This piece is anointed, Sprirt filled straight from the Scriptures. This choir and orchestra have given a magnificent representation. Thank you!
This song is so beautiful and powerful.. I hold my tears whenever singing to this 🥺
I cannot help but tear a little whenever I listen to this beautiful hymn
What a wonderful anthem. My own church has done this one a couple times, too. With less people and no orchestra, of course. Still, we made a joyful noise onto The Lord.
Eddie Hawn I bet yours was just as beautiful.
Ohhh so perfectly praise the Lord
Our merciful God is great!!!
The choir I belong to, Senoia United Methodist Church of Senoia, Ga, has sung this several times & it always brings chills to me. It also lifts me up. I appreciate Dallas FBC choir for sharing this masterpiece! We need these words in this time we are in.
It’s neat to read your comment. My Dad was pastor of Senoia Methodist Church 1959-1964. Both my sister and I were born when we lived in Senoia.
may the world hear this exqisite and angelic pweformance Thank You .God is truly present

Many years later from Augusta, GA: It still doesn't get any better than this. Oh how music like this is MISSED!
You don’t need to miss it - just find the right church
Glorious sentiment! One of my favorite pieces to do as a choir member. When it’s right , it’s sublime!
I got to sing this with a 50 person church choir 12 years ago. I still remember every word! Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
I love this Song, The very words come out of The Bible ( Psalm 8 : 3 -9 ) I cry and Sing along with them every time I hear it , The Holy Spirit Reveals His Holiness, Power & His Majesty How can we Not Weep with Joy Over The Almighty God The Creator of The Entire Universe * Jesus * 🙏✝️🙏
This is one of the most beautiful renditions of our song on UA-cam! I wish we could hear it in person! Thank you so much! Linda
A true legacy from Linda Lee Johnson and Tom Fettke. Glory to God.
No it's not , I've heard better.
@mudog35 please share, then.

Our choir is currently working on this piece. It brings me to tears every time.
Tanks for posting.
Same here. What part are you in it?
I was just thinking the same thing-I cry every time I hear it.
For that reason alone, it's hard to sing and get through it...soooo powerful ;)
Fabulosos, se siente y se escucha Dios comunicando su mensaje.

I really love this song
When I gaze into the night skies
and see the work of your fingers;
The moon and stars suspended in space.
(oh, what is man?)
Oh, what is man that
you are mindful of him?
You have given man a
crown of glory and honor,
And have made him a little
lower than the angels.
You have put him in
charge of all creation:
The beasts of the field
The birds of the air,
The fish of the sea.
Oh, what is man? (oh, what is man?)
Oh, what is man that
you are mindful of him?
O Lord, our God the majesty
and glory of your name
Transcends the earth
and fills the heavens.
O Lord, our God; little
children praise You perfectly,
And so would we.
And so would we.
Alleluia!
Alleluia!
The majesty and glory of Your name.
Alleluia!
Alleluia!
The majesty and glory of Your name.
Alleluia!
Alleluia!
Alleluia!
Alleluia!
Alleluia!
Alleluia!
Alleluia!
(Alleluia!)
Absolutely beautiful. I so miss the choir at FBC Ft Lauderdale. We used to sing this one.

Wow!
Beautiful message sung by the choir,
All in robes.
No music.
Notes projected on a screen for both choir and audience to see.
Great musical accompaniment.
Thanks for sending this worshipful rendition to me.
Tears of joy, every single time.
Heard this song on Family radio and it brought me here. Blessings
Wow !! I heard this too on Faith Radio yesterday !!!! This is one of my favorite choir songs. I sang it with my church choir many moons ago. This is a magnificent song ! Praise be to God! It is easy to praise the Lord when there is music like this !!
2020, are you still there?
From child God peaceful:I am is I am the Lion (Water life),a child of God Yesus (Isay Moses Holy spirit).Peacefull for all of you.Calmness never like Confusion and Confusion never like Calmness .God bless for all of you.
I was part of my school's varsity choir and we sang this during baccalaureate (a sort of church service for seniors the day before graduation). It was very powerful, I'm glad I discovered it.
Our Choir at S. Tulsa Baptist under the direction of Philip Stephens will sing this again after several years this Sunday. Honestly, I have great difficulty not weeping when I sing it. It so perfectly places God and his Majesty and Glory in my very soul!!
We are singing this piece again Sunday for the retirement of our Minister of Music and his wife. Philip and Mary Anne have led our wonderful music for 32 years!!! May God Bless them abundantly for their wonderful service to God at South Tulsa Baptist Church. We will miss them.
Oh how beautiful! 🙏🌺💗
Halleluah Amen❤
What a beautiful song! To God be the glory!
We should not criticize the message of our Lord, especially when it doesn't meet 'our' expectations in choral deliveries. I truly believe the content of this piece is right on target with its message........how can we, mere humans, stand in the presence of Almighty God and not cower down in reverential fear? We must sing Alleluia! to the King of Kings and nothing less!
Thank you, Adam! Agreed!
Oh, the whole "it's ok that it sucks if it's for the Lord" way of thinking, eh? Nope, sorry. It's that kind of thinking and excuse making that got choirs kicked out of the church in the first place.
Does God not deserve nothing less than the VERY best? The sacrifices presented to God were without spot and without blemish. Just because it is "church music" doesn't mean that it's ok to not sing correctly.
@@ohmusicsweetmusic this is correct. Are we okay with a slovenly, unprepared message from the man of God? Then why do we not put everything in decency and order as the Lord Himself, to the best of our ability? Before the temple was consecrated 200,000 singers, and 200,000 instrumentalists practiced for years before being able to step in to play and sing. We must pray and prepare, worship but also work in music. If Christ gave me his best, should I not give him mine, in all life including my music offerings to him? Yes there is being led of the Spirit, but when Paul spoke to Timothy of preaching, he admonished him to study to show himself approved unto God. Although not directly to a musician or singer, I think the principle is there as well, to do everything as unto the Lord for his pleasure and glory. Now I agree not all a choir or all the folks in churches need a music degree to sing for the Lord but there should be both heartfelt preparation as well as musical practice. All this though stems from a love of the Lord. Alright I’m getting off my soap box. 😁
This is so beautiful...praise God and His majesty!!
So beautiful !! God Bless His Church. God Bless America.
These are the most wholesome and pure looking Baptists I've ever seen in my life! I thought they were Adventists or Mormons! Great rendition! :)
Que belleza de himno!!!! Bendito sea DIOS, por tantas bendiciones que recibimos de EL la honra y la gloria para nuestro creador.

The Best Song in the world... 👍
Phenomenally beautiful and worshipful!
Praise the Lord - Alleluia!🌿🎼
A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened.
This song made me cry
We sang this one in my church choir this morning. Sounds even better with the orchestra.
Beautiful!!
Such a beautiful song. One of my favorite choral pieces... All praises to the Most High GOD!
Beautiful. Best. Good facial expressions. Subtle
Orchestra. Camera work!
Are there any Baptist churches in the OKC area that still sing real choir music like this in 2020? I really miss this genre of music.
Southwest Baptist Church (in OKC) has a great music ministry! Their choir alone is the size of some smaller congregations and both they and the congregation really know how to sing with conviction and purpose. I found them searching for good, congregational recordings of my favorite hymns, as it's so nice to be able to pull up some real (traditional) worship music at the end of a long day! (I'm an IFB from the Minneapolis, MN area and their church is so similar to mine it's uncanny! But it's great someone from Southwest Baptist uploaded a ton of those videos for people's worship and edification, as even a lot of churches with great music ministries tend not to publish much online.) They'd definitely be worth a visit, even if it's a bit of a drive! I definitely know which church I'll be visiting if I'm ever in the OKC area!
From child God peaceful:I am is I am the Lion (Water life),a child of God Yesus (Isay Moses Holy spirit). Peaceful for all of you.Who want life be desire to avoid death.!!!God bless for all of you.
