I sang this every Sunday in the Congregational church as a child then as an adult, the Doxology. But Williams adaption still give me goose bumps.... Wonderful.
40 years ago, when I was a seminarian preparing for the Catholic priesthood, we used this hymn and this same arrangement for particularly solemn or festive occasions, such as the visitation of Cardinal Krol to our seminary. We also used it for a pilgrimage to the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington DC in 1976. Unfortunately it is regarded as too "formal" for use in parishes but cathedral and basilica liturgists still rely upon it for great occasions.
I know how you feel. Former Episcopalian-this was sung as the Doxology every Sunday. Still, as a Catholic, you've got to hand it to Williams. So...regal!
Always have loved that hymn. England does it right! I guess Ill just have to be happy singing the doxology here in the USA. That's one of the best hymns of all time.
We sang this when I was in the Choir at Coral Ridge Church when Diane Bish was Senior Organist .It was a Unbelieveable time in the Music Legacy of the Church.What has replaced this Saced Music is a Praise Band How sad what is happing to the Music is some American Churches I Pray that some how the Music of the churches will once again resound in Worship Services again. What a Beautiful video Thank you Westminster Choir and Organist
Diane Bish kept us grounded in sacred music. Her show reminded us that Christian music had a heritage Thad 11th verse the same as the first cannot. Hymns taught theology. Miss her.
All people that on earth do dwell, Sing to the Lord with cheerful voice. Him serve with fear, His praise forth tell; Come ye before Him and rejoice. The Lord, ye know, is God indeed; Without our aid He did us make; We are His folk, He doth us feed, And for His sheep He doth us take. O enter then His gates with praise; Approach with joy His courts unto; Praise, laud, and bless His Name always, For it is seemly so to do. For why? the Lord our God is good; His mercy is for ever sure; His truth at all times firmly stood, And shall from age to age endure. To Father, Son and Holy Ghost, The God Whom Heaven and earth adore, From men and from the angel host Be praise and glory evermore.
U been to the church of Nigeria, Anglican Communion? Not all of them are this good. But those that are good are good 🥰 and the Cathedral church at Marina is one of them
This hymn was sung in Mark Twain's "Adventures of Thomas Sawyer". I just came to check it out, and boy! did my hairs stand on end. It's absolutely majestic. Heavenly.
Keep watch, dear Lord, with those who work or watch or weep this night, and give your angels charge over those who sleep. Tend the sick, Lord Christ, give rest to the weary, bless the dying, soothe the suffering, pity the afflicted, shield the joyous-and all for your love's sake. Amen. - Attributed to Augustine, Book of Common Prayer
Prince Philip's Funeral today at Windsor. Prince Philip was wonderfully supportive of the Queen and gave many years of service to her a many worth causes. A wonderful piece of film for the 50th year of her Coronation in 2010. Here HM The Queen arrives with Prince Philip at Westminster Abbey to a really great 500 year old hymn from the opening words of Psalm 100 in English (All People that on Earth do dwell). This hymn marks the terrible fight for the English language. The hymn was written around 1562 by William Kethe who was hiding, exiled in Geneva during Queen Mary's dreadful period of burning over 300 English Protestants to death. The first person Mary ordered burnt to death was burnt for translating the Bible into English. To read and speak the Bible in English is a right we all take to easily, without thought and for granted and enjoy to this day. Kethe translated the Geneva Psalter Bible into English... a capital offence with punishment of burning alive. Kethe went further... He translated the Bible and working with printers produced the very first small Bibles... ever... and in English... so that a man, woman or child may be able to read a Bible within their very house or carry one with them. This is the precurser of the very bookshelf Bible in your house this morning, and was the Bible carried by William Shakespeare, Oliver Cromwell and John Knox. It was a massive move forward in education and the need for the English poor to learn to read and speak the Bible in English. Kethe returned to England and died in Dorset as Rector of Child Okeford.

@idle44 It works out, I was a Roman Catholic now I'm a member of the Episcopal Church and very happy and proud in my new home. And music like this still gives me a shiver. The praise of God thru the making of a glorious noise to His honor and worship.
But as for me, I will always have hope; I will praise you more and more. My mouth will tell of your righteousness, of your salvation all day long, though I know not its measure. - Psalm 71
Frannie, this is Donald. I could spend hours listening to this type of music. I could spend hours talking about this music if you would be interested. Simply spectacular and fantastic!!
My first time to hear this hymn sung in a procession. Every sunday we used to sing the doxology for the offering procession to the altar. our identity as Anglican, I love it.
My high school did this c.1970 for speech night in Melbourne Town Hall with (me in) fanfare ensemble, organ and 1000+ male voices.....tingles-down-spine stuff!!
I totally agree my grammar school did this every year at speech day and as you moved up the school you were expected to sing in a lower register so that by the time you reached final years in sixth form you learned the base lines. We rehearsed it for weeks before and on the day with whole school singing, the trumpet section of the brass band playing the fanfare, and the gorgeous church organ it was a wonderful experience Every time I hear it it takes me back to the sixties and I am uplifted.
UND1989, actually the Church of England predates the Roman Catholic presence in England by several hundred years, according to historical records. When the Bishop of Rome sent St. Augustine to England to perform missionary work, Augustine found a church already in existence.
We sang this song in our church for the installation of our pastor. We sing these old songs and also sing praise songs. We try to blend the old and the new. I love it all! It's for the glory and honor of God.
Walking slowly in a totally forward motion is VERY difficult. So a bit of "sway" is required. In the UK we process we do not rush like through a shopping mall!
Thanks for posting. All glory be to the Father, all glory be to the Son, all glory be to the Holy Spirit, ONE in the Most Holy Trinity now and forever.
I love this hymn and especially this arrangement by Ralph Vaughan Williams. No one, but no one, does splendor and majesty better than the Church of England. Thank you very much for this video! Gave me awe and fulfillment.
I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. I play the piano and organ. Today (July 28), I played a hymn for Sunday School Assembly set to this tune. It was How Blessed Is This Place, written by Ernest E. Ryden.
I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. I play the piano and organ. Today (April 29, Easter 4), I filled in at a local Lutheran Church. I played this as the opening hymn. It is #883 in Evangelical Lutheran Worship.
Majestic! As another convert to Catholicism, I have to agree that, whatever about theology, no-one does hyms like the Anglicans, especially from Hymns A & M!
Sounds like "slave mentality." Think how many hungry children could be fed or schooled with the money given to the monarchy. Is the "grandeur" worth more than that? More than those kids lives, or future? Certainly not. It's time for tradition to give way to reason.
I think it is matter of choice whether you do or not. On the other hand those who are invited to Royal Services in Westminster Abbey or St Paul's should pay their respects to the Sovereign as she passes regardless of whether they sit on the 'blind' side or in full view of her.
From the US - hail to the Queen and Prince Phillip. If only the two of you knew how we look up to you both for your grace, dignity and humanity. The people of the United States have nothing to look to and we are sorry with the leadership we have. Don't ever let Prince Harry and his wife move to the United States - they will not have a happy life together if they move here.
The Anglicans broke away from the Roman Catholic Church at the time of Henry VIII, but over the years have retained more of the tradition and worship than my Roman Catholic church which has giving itself over to guitars and tambourines.
Go to a Traditional Latin mass. There's more of them these days. Also, a lot of Novus Ordo parishes are incorporating more elements of the old pre Vatican II mass. The days of the "hippy mass" appear to be dying out, along with their congregations it would seem.
I love this arrangement of the "Old 100th". I wish the churh ( Episcopal ) that I attend, would sing the Hymns at about the tempo as this hymn is sung. They sing hymns what seems to be at racing speed I barely have a chance to catch my breath between verses.
It's Scottish! It's not a hymn, it's Psalm 100. Preserved in the Scottish Psalter of Metrical Psalms, 1650. The tune, "The Old 100th" was composed by Louis Bourgeois in 1551. The words were translated by William Kethe, a supposed Scot and supporter of John Knox whist in exile. In Scotland it is traditionally sung acapello without any musical accompaniment. Instruments and iconography are 'not encouraged' in the Free Presbyterian Church of Scotland. The Word of the Lord is pure and sufficient.
@NJFordPops08005 Many People on the left bowed as well. Those that did not on the left, if you notice, were either non British or of religions that did not permit them to bow to the Queen.
The spectacle begins to overshadow the presence of the Spirit. Oh God forgive us , your children, for we have sinned. Bring us together to live in the peace you have given us as shown in the life of Your Son.
I am so happy you joined our family and we can't just hand out money. We try to get them to join one of our institutions. I am jealous of your visit to Rome, I have always wanted to go on a pilgrimage there.
Easy Aspi: This is one area where we can be more specific. The ENGLISH have grand cathedrals and abbeys; to rival any of the Gothic giants of Europe (even France!). That is because England was conquered by the northern French Normans. Neither Wales, Ireland, nor Scotland (my homeland) have any such buildings in comparison with those of England.

Yes . . but, they were built and dedicated to the Catholic Church then Henry V111 came along and claimed them as his own, renamed The Church of England.. Something about " though shall not steal" .
As a Presbyterian, I do have to say sorry about some of our early....fervor.😂😂Calvin and Knox are two of my personal heroes, but I think they swung a little two far the other way in a desire to rid themselves of any Papist traces.

The funny part is, with the runaway charismatic movement in the world today, Presbyterians are still considered extremely high-church compared to your average non-denom.
The organ at the beginning is truly awesome!
I sang this every Sunday in the Congregational church as a child then as an adult, the Doxology. But Williams adaption still give me goose bumps.... Wonderful.
England sure knows how to do those hymns right.
Really impressive and historical. I am neither Anglican nor British, but i am bound to resect this moments of grandeur and reverence.
My Anglican ears just died and went to Heaven.
Mine too!
HEH - HEH, YIPEE ! I can say this being an Espiscopalian
My Presbyterian ears just died and went to heaven!!😂✝️✝️🏴🏴
this song remminds me of God's glory, no matter who sings it! Fav song all time !!
Fanfares layered over fanfares love it!
Goosebumps. Wow that organ. Holy smokes. Amazing

The arrangement brings a tear to my eye. It supports the original tune without overwhelming it or devolving into melodrama.
This performance really rocks! As does anything that English Church music will do.
My favorite hymn.
GOD is awesome! This version captures the essence of the Psalm. Praise be to God!!!
BBC: Please make this event available (again?) on DVD - it was one of the best concerts of British music ever.
NO ONE does a Hymn quite like the Church of England.... God Save the Queen
This didn’t age well
@@liamatherton6759 Yes it did.
It aged like a fine wine
U been to the church of Nigeria, Anglican Communion?
Not all of them are this good. But those that are good are good 🥰 and the Cathedral church at Marina is one of them
AMEN
I was anglican- now a Catholic: but this gives me a long forgotten shiver.
Me too-both
Welcome home Richard!
God ßless & Keep You Good Queen ßess!
The name Williams itself has a grandiose, trapezoidal majesty, crownshaped and noble.
ANOTHER GREAT ANGLICAN HYMN SUNG BEAUTIFULLY AT WESTMINSTER ABBEY
This hymn was sung in Mark Twain's "Adventures of Thomas Sawyer". I just came to check it out, and boy! did my hairs stand on end. It's absolutely majestic. Heavenly.
“And put your hearts in it!”
Simply spectacular.

This is a blatant representation of but a taste of the Glory of God.
This is being sung at my funeral for sure.

O Praise Ye the Lord in the Highest!!!!!!!
This is why I love the Monarchy. The culture! The cermoney! The grandeur! The historical power! It's worth the money, and I'm not even a Tory.
Besides the fascist caste system, blue-blood rule, and autocratic gubernatorial power figurehead, it's quite delightful.
The UK has neither a fascist nor an autocratic dictator. What are you on about mate?
Pardon me. Oligarchic dictatorship and royalty means monarchy means caste system. A little flourish on my part saying "fascist".
Okay mate
Sounds like "slave mentality." Think how many hungry children could be fed or schooled with the money given to the monarchy. Is the "grandeur" worth more than that? More than those kids lives, or future? Certainly not. It's time for tradition to give way to reason.
Her Majesty looks petrified in that flashback video to her coronation. I don't blame her.
Praise God, indeed!
I think it is matter of choice whether you do or not.
On the other hand those who are invited to Royal Services in Westminster Abbey or St Paul's should pay their respects to the Sovereign as she passes regardless of whether they sit on the 'blind' side or in full view of her.

Now I know what you're talking about....I got the shiver too, about 2:21 into the vid. I'm also a trumpet player so that didn't help :)
The spectacle begins to overshadow the presence of the Spirit. Oh God forgive us , your children, for we have sinned. Bring us together to live in the peace you have given us as shown in the life of Your Son.
Daniel Teets I feel it enhances it. Through the eternal omnipresent spirit of the Christ that lives within everything and everyone.
The sheer grandeur of the singing and music...Only the presence of the Holy Spirit could make this happen.
Another lot of fantastic comments from Judi Harbin down the page a little. Always great to read your comments Judi
Yes. It is a book published yearly called "Sundays & Seasons."
I always marvel at how attractive the Queen was in her youth, attractive in the uncommonly attractive way.
She was quite stunning, yet she was quite shy and always pushed her sister forward at social occasions.
@@glynnwright1699 She was beautiful, and, as I young girl even I felt a sense of her calm; seriousness; dignity and care.
@idle44 I'm not English and was never an Anglican! But let me ask you in short: what makes an Anglican turn a Catholic! I'm amazed!
I am so happy you joined our family and we can't just hand out money. We try to get them to join one of our institutions. I am jealous of your visit to Rome, I have always wanted to go on a pilgrimage there.
That organ introduction gives Bach's whole catalogue a run for its money. (hot take)
If you could hear the year 1946, the digital expression of peace after world War 2, this is it!
Who's that lady walking behind the Queen? Fabulous.
We all owe ourselves to God, now shut up and listen to the music.
RIP Queen Elizabeth II
Nice arrangement
Fantastic! Queen Elizabeth I called it the Geneva Jig!
I think RVW's arrangement for her coronation? Doesn't get much better than this!!
