Listened to it in Call of Duty Classic... looked it up, was directed to the actual version in the comments... and my god I AM BLOWN AWAY. This is amazing!

Once to ev'ry man and nation Comes the moment to decide, In the strife of truth with falsehood, For the good or evil side; Some great cause, some great decision, Off'ring each the bloom or blight, And the choice goes by forever 'Twixt that darkness and that light By the light of burning martyrs, Christ, Thy bleeding feet we track, Toiling up new Calvaries ever With the cross that turns not back; New occasions teach new duties, Time makes ancient good uncouth; They must upward still and onward, Who would keep abreast of truth.

Today, 7/14/24, this hymn stands a firm reminder

Few songs pull a physical reaction from me, but this one does every time.

Brings me to tears... a top favorite since childhood.

Love this hymn. We must choose whom we nurture and cherish. Good or evil, darkness or light, the world or Christ.

Red Square.. This music it heroic

"VICTORY OR DEATH"

The music or tune is called " Ebenezer " composed by Thomas John Williams. The words or text is called "To Every Man and Nation" written by James Russell Lowell.

Words which remain ardently true in this modern time...

I feel like such a fool, Irish Catholic, but I find my favorite hymn in a shooting game.

I first heard it in THE YOUNG LIONS when the young officer (believe it was Montgomery Clift as actor) has to make a decision whether or not to go along with the Nazis. The selection of this piece of music made a huge impact on me and my life.

The most beautiful of hymns , sung here in the correct metre ..meaningfull to all peoples.

Does not this powerful hymn resonate even more in today's world? I intend to send this to all my family and friends in 2024.

Freedom. Justice. Faith. They never come cheap.

Choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve...As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord. (Joshua 24:15)

I come here because of Call of duty 1, what a song!

Me and my family will decide for Christ Jesus 🌹

Honor to all peaple have palyed this game and hows playng Call of Duty

Impossibly beautiful. Unearthly. Sublime. Powerful.

"ancient goods are now uncouth" is a very relevant verse.

may Jesus Christ be praised! written by James Russell Lowell(1819-1891) excellent Hymn; thanks so much for this video!

desde que era un muchacho este himno se apoderó de mi corazón, pero con esta traducción, con maravillosos versos 1¡Oh, profundo amor de Cristo, vasto, inmerecido don! Cual océano infinito, ya me inunda el corazón. Me rodea, me sostiene la corriente de su amor; llévame continuamente hacia el gozo del Señor. 2 ¡Oh profundo amor de Cristo! Sus loores proclamad, pues su amor nos satisfizo y no cambiará jamás. ¡Cómo cuida a sus amados, redimidos por su cruz! Comunión con Él gozamos cuando andamos en la luz. 3 ¡Oh profundo amor de Cristo, único, supremo amor! Cual un vasto mar bendito, cual hogar al viador. ¡Oh profundo amor de Cristo! Pura gloria es para mí, que me eleva, salvo y listo, hacia el cielo, hacia Ti.

Esse hino cantamos na Igreja Adventista do Sétimo Dia, e em português o título é: FORTALECE TUA IGREJA. ❤ Hinário Adventista do Sétimo Dia n° 506.

The lyrics of this hymn are taken from a poem written by James Russell Lowell to protest the war fought during 1846-48.between Mexico and the United States. The poem: albrechtmba.wordpress.com/2012/01/26/origin-of-once-to-every/ Wikipedia article about the Mexican American War. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexican%E2%80%93American_War The music for this hymn is also used in the hymn "Oh, the Deep Deep Love of Jesus." The swelling and falling volume of the music mimics the references in the lyrics to rolling sea waves.

Perfect theme for "War that ends all wars"

This is the hymnal of 2017 for me!

LOVE this song!

Excellent - glad I could help.

So moving! 😭

conhecido no Brasil como "Fortalece Tua Igreja"

Timely!

"TURN AROUND! KEEP MOVING FORWARD!" "PICK UP YOUR GUN AND SHOOT!" "NO RETREAT! NOT ONE STEP BACK!"

Very nce, seems rather appropriate to the times... With election less than 2 weeks away... Please, VOTE!

I used to sing this during Devotions in High School. Didn't quite get the meaning behind the lyrics until around Fourth Form. Slow, huh? ;)

Ah, I forgot about that. A handful of these songs are not found on the "More Than 50" 2-disc set, but are found on separate "Hymns Triumphant Vol 1-2" discs. I hope this helps.

*STANDS STRAIGHT LEFT HAND IS BY SIDE I LOOK UP STRAIGHT AND I RAISE MY RIGHT HAND BY MY HEAD AND I SALUTE*

Call of Duty Classic anyone?

ahh Call of Duty Finest Hour first mission when Red Army attack on nazi line in Stalingrad

To Russell DeMeyere blow: I just read this info elsewhere rebutting a similar statment you made about the Mexican War. Mark DeFazio3 years ago (edited) I am afraid you are slightly incorrect regarding why it was written though. One, the Mexican-American war happened in the Spring of 1846 so he could not have written it for a war that did not exist yet. If you google the author and read information about him, you will see that Once to Every Man and Nation comes from a larger piece of work known as "The Present Crisis" which has 17 verses of which this song was taken from. Here is a quote from the page about James Lowell: "Lowell's poem "The Present Crisis," an early work that addressed the national crisis over slavery leading up to the Civil War, has had an impact in the modern civil rights movement." This song was used as a protest song against the Mexican-American war, but that was not the reason it was written.

May I ask where you purchased the album that has this version of Once for Every Man and Nation?

So which song came first, this or O the Deep Deep Love of Jesus? Because they both use the same music so whats the difference betewwn the 2 songs?

Ok, wait a minute... I thought that this composition was from Call of Duty by Michael Giacchino... am I right or not?

I'm m an atheist but moved to say Laud Him Laud Him!!🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🌹🌹🌹

doesnt anyone know how the tempo of this piece should be performed ??

0:19

FOR MOTHER RUSSIA COMRADES, DO NOT TURN YOUR BACK ON HER

Aquí una versión en piano arr. Mark Hayes !! Bendiciones !! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rbaHoJWrvNadcnk.html

this is an old Hebrew hymn

Any time Biden is speaking in a Christian Church, this powerful piece should be sung as his anthem and commented upon in his peace.
