This was the best arrangement I’ve listened to. I wasn’t familiar with this hymn before hearing it at the queen’s funeral. When I was watching her service with my mom, she knew what song it was. I should have asked her to play it for me because she played by ear and she inherited the gift from her mom and I inherited from both of them. I’m the only one in my generation who could and I don’t know of anyone else in my family who can other than my mom and grandma. My grandma died unexpectedly when I was in HS. Six months ago my mom passed unexpectedly. We were very close and still living together. Usually it’s pretty easy for me to pick up a song and play it but there’s a few that are tricky for me. I’d be able to watch my mom’s hands and once I got past the first line, the rest followed. Tonight I listened to several videos and couldn’t get past the first line. I was able to play the chorus and even parts of the verse. Finally I saw your video and had the camera on your hands and I finally saw the one little note that I ran stuck on which was B. Normally a flat gets me if I’m stuck. Felt like it took hours to get it but it was basically 20-30 minutes. How I wish I could hear the piano playing by my mom and grandma again. They played beautifully. My biggest regret ever in life was not taking proper piano lessons.

Lyrics Love divine, all loves excelling, Joy of Heav’n to earth come down; Fix in us thy humble dwelling; All thy faithful mercies crown! Jesus, Thou art all compassion, Pure unbounded love Thou art; Visit us with Thy salvation, Enter every trembling heart. Breathe, O breathe Thy loving Spirit Into every troubled breast! Let us all in Thee inherit; Let us find that second rest. Take away our bent to sinning; Alpha and Omega be; End of faith, as its beginning, Set our hearts at liberty. Come, Almighty to deliver, Let us all Thy life receive; Suddenly return, and never, Nevermore Thy temples leave. Thee we would be always blessing, Serve Thee as Thy hosts above, Pray and praise Thee without ceasing, Glory in Thy perfect love. Finish, then, Thy new creation; Pure and spotless let us be; Let us see Thy great salvation Perfectly restored in Thee; Changed from glory into glory, Till in Heav’n we take our place, Till we cast our crowns before Thee, Lost in wonder, love, and praise.

Fabulous! I have just heard an amazing young organist play this hymn today in Saltaire Church near Bradford. The shear power of the piece and especially the final verse at full volume with all the stops out made my lungs rattle. It was beautifully awesome in every sense of the word. He then followed it with the theme to Terminator 2 which was also breathtaking and how I wish I had recorded it on my iPhone. Thank you for this Rob. Your playing is awesome too and is saved in my bookmarks. Now... I'm off to listen to your others.
