Did you know this Irish melody is over 1,000 years old? It dates back to the time of St. Patrick in Ireland. The local Irish king had banned the burning of any flames or candles in observance of a pagan Druid festival. On Easter Sunday in 433, St. Patrick risked his life by lighting a huge fire on the tallest hill around: Slane Hill. Years later, an unknown composer wrote a melody called "Slane...

Ah tão fofo!
🥰😍😘
Very pretty. I want to ask how you come up with your left hand. Do you look at a piano or guitar score to come up with the chords? Because I want to start doing this. I have tried to look for a Catholic hymn book for harp but it doesn’t exist. I began watching you and they are beautiful. But I guess I need to do it on my own. Do you use a certain program to write out your arrangements?
Thank you! I use the guitar part of the OCP, the big book of Catholic hymns. My church gave me a copy when I started playing at Mass. Maybe you could check with the music ministry in your church to see if they have an extra copy? As for how I write them, honestly most of the time I don't even write them down. I listen to a lot of music and am usually influenced by that. Like recently I've been listening to a lot of finger style guitar, so my harp songs are coming out more guitar like. I improvise and try to come up with something I think sounds good, then go from there. I would love to write a book of Catholic hymns for the harp someday, but right now my regular job is just too demanding. I will definitely keep it in mind, though. 😊
@@praywiththeharp I have spirit and song books as well as Gather Comprehensive. I played flute in a contemporary band at my church for about 20 years. But now I’m in a very small rural church with poor music and an almost nonexistant music ministry. Until there’s a new director a lot won’t change. I will have to begin doing this. I’ve only been playing harp a little over 3 years ago, so I’m not quite comfortable although I do cone up with parts when I play at church. I’m just unsure of myself. I’ll get there. And you should make a book. I’ll bet there would be a big response. Your arrangements are always so beautiful.
That was very nice. The left hand was so soothing. Thanks for posting.😊
@@Pililani1 I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for listening. 🥰
Very nice, which music sheet/arrangement is this?
@@Tropicalharpist72 thank you! I started with an arrangement by Penny Howk Beavers and then added a bunch of chords, especially in the right hand, to make it my own.
What a beautiful song performance, this was just amazing.
@@AltoonaYourPiano thank you so much! 🥰
HI, I am Catholic too and just getting a new harp soon. ;)
@@catholicdoula congratulations! Enjoy! 🎶
You do beautiful work on the harp ~ inspirational. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much! ♥️ Glory to God. 🙏
Dear Kirsten, your harp playing is my musical stairway to Heaven! 🎵🎶😇🥰 Do others see stars shining with every strum of your harp, or is it just me? ✨😀 You've magnificently captured the essence of this Catholic hymn, bringing its magic to life with your beautiful touch. Your nimble fingers dance across the strings with such grace and finesse, creating a heavenly sound that could soothe even the most restless soul and warm the coldest heart. It's amazing how each note you play feels like a whisper from the heavens, finding myself completely lost in the beauty of your music 🥰 After listening I had to check if I still had goosebumps. Spoiler alert: I do 😀 Thank you SO much for making my heart and soul sing along with your harp! Your incredible talent is as clear as a cloudless sky, and I’m here for every enchanting note you send our way. Keep spreading that musical joy and turning every listener into a believer in Harp Magic! 🎼💫 May the melodies of your life always be as sweet and harmonious as the gentle voice of your harp! 🎵🎶🌈🌺🍀🙏❤😊
Dear Patrick, you are so kind, thank you so much! 🥰 I wasn't sure about this one, to be honest. I mean, I finally got it to sound exactly how I wanted it to 🎶, but by then my candle had almost burnt out and I wasn't sure if it looked good enough.🕯️It was so late and dark. 🌌 But I just decided to post it anyways because I was finally in the right mindset while playing it. The day had been really difficult emotionally, but this song really brought me through. I just focused on the tiniest flicker of light in my soul ✨ and let the Holy Spirit play this one for me. I am so happy and flattered that my harp playing is your musical stairway to heaven! 😇 I think it may be mine as well. 😉✨ Thank you so much for continuing to support and encourage me, Patrick. It means the world to me! 🌎
This is awesome!!
Thank you!
Thank you for playing such a lovely & peaceful piece!
Thanks so much for listening! 🥰
Thank you for this prayer. Peace and happiness to you!
Thank you so much! 🕊️😊

Dear Kirsten, watching you play with such happiness and light is truly wonderful! 🥰 It shows that life is treating you well, and that brings me so much joy to my heart! ❤😊 As for your performance, I think you just redefined the word 'heavenly' 😀 ‘Alleluia No. 1’ sounds absolutely divine on the harp, especially when played so breathtakingly beautiful by someone as talented as you! The simple beauty of this hymn shines so brightly through your nimble fingers, and I feel every note resonate with pure joy and wonder, taking me straight to cloud nine. It's amazing how your music can make everything feel so light and blissful! Your harp and you are simply a match made in musical heaven! 🎼😇 Thank you wholeheartedly for wrapping me in a cozy blanket of sound each time! 🎵🤗 Keep those heavenly melodies coming, the world definitely needs more divine moments like these where harmony isn't just heard but felt in heart and soul! 🌎🎶✨🌈🙏❤😊
Dear Patrick, once again, thank you so much for your kind words! 🥰 I am glad I can wrap you in a cozy blanket of music. 😊🎶 You always have the best analogies, you must be a writer! ✏️ I have always thought music was more about expressing feelings than just playing notes on a page. In fact, I didn't even write this arrangement down, it was just in my heart. ♥️ I try to go to the most peaceful part of my soul when I play the harp, and hope that I can bring the listener there as well. 🕊️🌈 For me, it is kind of like the sunrise over the ocean, full of beauty and light. 🌅 I hope life is also treating you well, Patrick, you are a very kind soul. 😊 Happy summer! ☀️🌊
Dear Kirsten, it’s always a true gift to receive such heartwarming words from you! 🎁 I’m so touched by the genuine replies you share each time - they truly mean the world to me! 🥰 Thank you SO much! 🙏🤗 Your analogy of music being like a sunrise over the ocean is simply stunning - now I’ll imagine a golden sunrise every time you play 🌅😊 Though I may have a way with words, I wouldn't call myself a writer 😀 Knowing that I can bring you even a bit of the delight your music and messages bring me truly fills my heart with happiness! ❤ And if I could write as beautifully as you play your enchanting instrument, I might just consider a career change 😄 Here’s to more sunrises and the tranquil beauty you bring into the world with your harp. Happy Summer, dear Kirsten! May your summer be as melodious as your music, as kind as your heart and as beautiful as your soul! 🎵🌞✨💞😊
Another beautiful hymn. You need to make a Catholic hymn book!
Thank you so much! ♥️ I will try. I play for my church, but I don't always write them down. Do you play pedal harp or lever harp? (That will help me know which keys to use, thanks!)
This was such a beautiful arrangement. I am also a convert but converted at 18. I have been on the search for a Catholic hymn book for harp and cannot find one anywhere. And when I find someone playing a hymn it is unavailable for purchase. Have you ever considered putting a hymn book together for us Catholic folks out here? I would love it!❤
Thank you so much! ♥️ It is an idea floating around in my mind, but I will need some help to do it. Right now, music is my hobby and not my job. Let me look into it a bit more and get back to you! 😊
Beautiful Playing 👌❤
Thank you so much! ♥️
Good music...Borderless...🤗🤗 from S.Korea
Thank you, I really appreciate that! 🤗🤗 from the USA
the sanctity of the simple beneficial moments supported us in the past, give us a stronger now and a happier and stronger future.. many images you can feel with the music you choose to show us with your beautiful talent..❤

WOW, dear Kirsten, I am so in awe of your stunningly beautiful performance! 🥰 Listening to you play 'Be Thou My Vision' feels like taking a stroll through an enchanted Irish meadow, complete with fairy dust and rainbows ✨🌈 And after the stroll, I’m coming home in a cozy typical Irish cottage with the fire crackling and your harp providing the soundtrack 🎵☘😀 This gorgeous Irish hymn has always been a favorite of mine, and your splendid rendition just gave it a whole new life. The way you make your harp sing is out of this world! And every note you play sounds like a whisper from the heavens 😇 If I ever need a soundtrack for my dreams, I know who to call 😀 Thank you SO much for sharing this magical moment in music with us! Keep those strings singing, dear Kirsten, and stay awesome! The world could use a little more sparkle, and you are just the one to provide it! 🎼🌎✨🙏😊 May your days be filled with the same gentle allure and beauty as the melodies flowing from your harp, bringing forth a sense of grace and delight in every moment! 🎵❤🍀
Dear Patrick, wow! All I can say is thank you so much! 🥰 I love the little scene you created with an Irish cottage and my music in the background. 🎶✨🌈 You really have a way with words and a vivid imagination. I appreciate all your support and encouragement so much! 😊 And, I also wanted to be sure to wish you a very happy birthday today! 😁🎂🎈🎉 I hope it is filled with all of your favorite things, along with a sprinkle of magic and fairy dust! ✨🌈🍀
Dear Kirsten, thank you wholeheartedly for making my day so much brighter and my heart so much warmer! 🥰 Your kind, sincere words and birthday wishes are like a melody from your harp, bringing magic and joy into my life! 💫 I must say, your music truly does have that fairy dust sparkle - it’s like every note you play is a little sprinkle of enchantment 🎼✨ Your incredible talent, beautiful soul and warm heart never cease to amaze me! 💛😊 Keep shining, dear Kirsten, and stay amazing! 🌟 May your days be filled with as much joy and magic as your music brings to all of us! 🌈🎵🌷🍀

Dear Kirsten, your ‘Amazing Grace’ performance is pure Harp Heaven! 😇✨ Watching you play is like witnessing an angel on Earth. I knew angels played harps, but I didn't realize they posted on RUclips too 😀 The serene and soulful way you play your enchanting instrument brings a new life to this timeless hymn. Absolutely breathtakingly beautiful! 🥰 Each pluck of your strings feels like a heartfelt touch to the heart and soul, whispering secrets of grace and beauty to you and all who listen. You've made it impossible for me to listen to any other version of 'Amazing Grace' ever again. Every time I hear it somewhere, I’m going to be like, 'Nah, that's not how Kirsten does it!' 😀 Thank you SO much for the heavenly melodies and countless smiles stirred by your heavenly harp! With each note you play, your harp’s voice whispers a reminder to treasure the sheer beauty in the simplicity of every day. Keep playing, and I'll keep enjoying my trips to Harp Heaven! 🎼✨🌈🙏😊 May your life be as soothing and delightful as the delicate sounds of your harp, bringing grace and sheer loveliness to every moment! 🎵❤🍀
Dear Patrick, you are too kind. 🥰 All I can say is thank you so much! If there are harp angels, then surely there are also harp guardian angels like yourself! 😇 You are always there with a word of encouragement right when I need it the most. Before I read your message, I was feeling very tired and bogged down by all the busy-ness of life, but your words reminded me to focus on the simple beauty of life all around us, just to enjoy each precious moment.✨🌅🦋🌷 I feel very honored that my Amazing Grace is your new standard for the song! I felt that way the first time I heard Whitney Houston sing it, and it has never been the same for me since. Believe it or not, she is a big inspiration for me. I love how she was able to portray such emotion in every single note. I promise I will keep playing my harp music as long as you keep listening! 🎶🎧 Wishing you peace and joy and beauty. 🕊️😊🌈
Beautiful 🥰❤️
Thank you! 🥰
Wow This is very beautiful my friend! 👏🏼You did an awesome job 😊 (I covered this too btw) 🙃
Thank you so much, friend! 🥰 I was inspired by Miyabi Harp and Whitney Houston. Your version is so peaceful and heartfelt...thanks for sharing! 🕊️♥️👏

Dear Kirsten, I genuinely hope that life continues to be gentle and kind to you and your dear ones! The best things in life are not things, they are moments. And each listen to your music is such a moment to cherish 🥰 Your rendition of 'O Breathe On Me, O Breath of God' is nothing short of magnificently beautiful! The melody has so much beauty in its simplicity! And while you are playing vast quantity of notes, it is simplicity, with all its charm, that emerges as the crowning reward of your sublime playing on this enchanted instrument. Your nimble fingers on the strings bring out such beautiful sounds, and it matches this traditional Irish hymn perfectly. And when I joined in with my low D whistle for a virtual duet, the voices of both instruments were blending so beautifully, and it felt like we were sharing a wonderful moment, even though we're miles apart 💕 Thank you SO much, dear Kirsten, for the virtual duet opportunity, and for inspiring and touching hearts and souls around the world through your music 🎼✨🙏 Keep shining your light through your heavenly melodies, it makes a difference to so many people, including me! You're truly making the world a better and more beautiful place! 🌎🌈 May your life be as serene and enchanting as the delicate plucking of your harp strings, filling each moment with grace and sheer beauty! 🎵❤🍀
Dear Patrick, thank you once again for your kind words. 🥰 They truly come at the best times when I most need to hear them. They really mean the world to me. 🌎 I so appreciate that you take the time to listen to my music, comment on it, and even play along with it! I wish I could have heard our duet. I have never played with a low D whistle before. 😉🎶 I'm also glad you enjoyed this Irish hymn. 😊 I wanted to post something Irish in March. ☘️ I did struggle with writing an arrangement of this song, though, perhaps because of its simplicity. How do I make it sound more interesting? Add chords? Emphasize the dynamics? But in the end, I think you are right, maybe it is the simplest tunes that have the power to deeply touch our hearts. 💕 Wishing you peace and blessings. 🕊️🙏🌈✨
