I Want to Be Like Jesus-Hymn Sing
I Want to Be Like Jesus-Hymn Sing
During a time of introspection, this is the hymn that always comes to mind. I hope it becomes (or already is) the prayer of your heart, as well.
Four verses: Three in C, One in Db
I have one deep, supreme desire-
That I may be like Jesus,
To this I fervently aspire-
That I may be like Jesus.
I want my heart His throne to be,
So that a watching world may see
His likeness shining forth in me.
I want to be like Jesus.
He spent His life in doing good;
I want to be like Jesus.
In lowly paths of service trod;
I want to be like Jesus.
He sympathized with hearts distressed,
He spoke the words that cheered and blessed,
He welcomed sinners to His breast.
I want to be like Jesus.

His Eye Is On the Sparrow-Flute/Piano Duet

His Eye Is On the Sparrow-Flute/Piano Duet-6/23/24 When I heard Karen Dawson play in her lower register on a choir number for Holy Week, I knew I wanted to feature it in an arrangement. She graciously humored me! I'm blessed with the knowledge that God watches me with all the attention and care that He gives the sparrow. And He cares for you in the same way. Rejoice! Why should I feel discourag...
All Creatures of Our God and King-Prelude-6/23/24
Просмотров 72Месяц назад
All Creatures of Our God and King-Prelude This past Sunday, since both our organists were away, I was asked to play for our traditional service. For prelude I did my arrangement of "All Creatures of Our God and King," which I had recorded previously at home. But there's something wonderfully unusual about playing it "live," and I wanted to share it here. This wonderful hymn of praise encourages...

Saying Goodbye
Просмотров 39Месяц назад
Saying Goodbye A couple of events in the last few weeks and the one to come reminded me of this wonderful song! It was written by my friend, Chuck Sinclair, upon preparing to leave his college friends at graduation. It's especially poignant and wonderful for such an occasion! One of our pastors, Pastor Jeff, recently had his last Sunday with us to take on new denominational responsibilities. Th...
Jesus Loves Me--Clarinet and Piano
Просмотров 240Месяц назад
Jesus Loves Me For last Sunday's service, Tim Wallick and I prepared this arrangement of "Jesus Loves Me" for special music. It's based on an old arrangement I did for younger, less experienced musicians, so it was fun for Tim to be able to take some creative license with it. And he did a masterful job! And the message of the song is always clear: JESUS LOVES ME! And He loves you, and everyone!...

All the Way My Savior Leads Me-Hymn Sing Three verses: Two in Eb, One in F (Forgive me for lapsing into alternate harmonies on the last verse!) All the way my Savior leads me.

Mansion Over the Hilltop
Просмотров 3572 месяца назад
Mansion Over the HIlltop Several days ago @PraisingWithFriends asked for this gospel hymn. Ira Stanphill wrote it back in the 40's, when it was copyrighted, making it almost impossible to find the lyrics, of which I remember at least the first verse. So, if you know it, you can enjoy singing along (even though this is an arrangement, not a hymn sing version). Although I'm not really sure what G...

Eternal Father, Strong to Save-Hymn Sing
Thank you so much for your music today during the contemporary service. It was SO GOOD! I posted a few of your songs on our channel. I hope that’s ok 🙂
That’s fine, Jeremy! We were just blessed to be a part of corporate worship in that service! I might have to repost. 😉
@@GeriRosserplease do! And come back more often! I had so much fun singing in the choir last week.
@@PraisingWithFriends It goes both ways! Come back in the fall!
Phrases/Question I love in this: “None else could heal all our souls' diseases” “No night so dark but His love can cheer us” “Or sinner find that He would not take him?” Thank you Geri (again) for this (these) - reminders of our consummate Savior!
Amen.....❤
Thanks, Geri.
You’re welcome, Luke! Thanks for listening!
That was beautiful .
Thanks, Evelyn! And thanks for listening!
Sehr schoen❤
Thanks, Norbert! And thanks for listening!
Absolutely beautiful!!!
Thanks, John! And thanks for listening!
Amen........+
I kindly request you share the piano notes ❤
Thanks for your request, but I play mostly by ear and haven’t yet written out the hymns. Perhaps after I retire I will write out some of these in the way I play them. Thank you for listening!
@@GeriRosser thank you.
Good morning! Where do you get your sheet music? I love the arrangements. Thank you for using your gift.
Patricia, I’m largely working from memory-hymns I learned long ago-then adding some improvised parts to keep the rhythm going. I guess you’d say it’s my “arrangement,” but it’s not written out. Thanks for listening!
Beautiful styling--both chord rhythm and melody. Soothing, yet refreshing at the same time to mind and spirit. I enjoyed listening.❤
Thank you so much! And thanks for listening!
Thank...i pray toYesus...and hope that you are healty always....so you can play piano to admire Yesus as long as you can.....amin❤
Thanks for your kind words! Prayers for you, also. And thanks for listening! God is good!
Played in such a quiet but powerful tone, which reflected perfectly the spirit of the song. Beautiful interpretation of this hymn.❤
Thank you for your kind comment! And thanks for listening!
Just an absolutely beautiful version of this hymn. It was a blessing.❤
Thank you! And thanks for listening!
❤ Terima kasih ( Thanks very much)..
You’re welcome! And thanks for listening!
So beautiful so touching .
Thanks so much! And thanks for listening!
My Mother and Aunt used to sing this in our small church. Brings back such memories. Thank you ❤
Dean, you’re welcome! Thanks for listening!
Thank you, very encouraging and reassuring. He gives us such tender love and care.
You’re welcome, Patricia! He’s always there! Thanks for listening.

👌
Thanks, Guy, and thanks for listening!
So beautifully played. I was blessed.❤
Thank you! And thanks for listening!
Beautiful. I love that song.
Me, too, Brenda! Thanks for listening!
can I have a copy of a piano piece of the song?
Rollie, I was doing it from memory, with a little bit of improvisation. So I don’t have the music. But you might look at the Hymnary site to see where you can get the music. Thanks so much for listening!
This song has such a beauty and restfulness to it--in both the music and the words. I was blessed.❤
It’s a great hymn! Thanks for listening!
Thank you. Though forgotten, not lost - (like the invitation of the 3rd vs.)
I get it, Steve. It’s been on my mind for a few weeks, so it’s fresh.
Hello Geri! I have never heard this song before??
It’s probably not in a lot of hymnals. Our church’s publishing company adopted it, so it was probably written by someone from our denomination.
Amen! Sing and shout the victory!!
Yes, Delphine! Shout for His glory!
Thank you Geri.
You’re welcome, Delphine! Thanks for listening!
BEAUTIFUL!
Thank you, LaVaughn! And thanks for listening!
Yes yes yes!!! Love this!!!
So glad, Jeremy!
Absolutely beautiful. It was a joy to listen to this song.❤
Thank you, and thanks so much for listening!
This is nice! I just love your sweet voice but strong enough not to need a mic! Thank you Geri and best wishes
Thanks, David! I had to pitch it a little higher to be able to be heard. ;-D Blessings!
I am so glad that you are so okay after the accident. And your To Every Generation is even more special now. I could here the earnesty in your voice to sing it out!🙌🙌🙌🙌
Beautiful. Love that hymn.
Doreen, me, too! Thanks for listening!
This made me cry. This was my grandma’s favorite song and you played it so incredibly. Thank you for posting this. I’ve been listening to it on repeat 🥺💚
Jen, I'm glad it touched you in a deep place. Thanks for your kind words, and for listening!
Would love to hear your take on Mansion Over the Hilltop!
Jeremy, for the Hymn Sing playlist or just for fun? (And I like your new moniker!)
I’d not argue with either one! Do you happen to know when the next hymn sing at church is?
@@PraisingWithFriends Jeremy, sorry, I don't. I'll ask Paul next time I see him.
Everything to God in Prayer 😊❤
Karen, truly! Thanks for listening!
Beethoven Symphony no9. Saw a performance of this at the old church we used to belong to. By a chamber....yes CHAMBER choir!
Awesome work!
Thank you! And thanks for listening!
I enjoyed that!
Such a blessing and balm to the weary soul.
Thanks, Bet! And thanks for listening!
Such a beautiful arrangement of this Spirit-filled hymn. Ĥis Promises never Fail. May His blessings be upon all those who need the refuge of His Perfect Peace tonight🙏💕
Amen!
Haven’t checked in a while but man this is one of my favorites!
This is one of the first hymns I learned to play, Andrew! Also, I recorded my arrangement of “Morning Has Broken” a few days ago.
Second time I watched your video I've noticed you were minus your wedding ring!
Good eye, David! I’ve lost some weight and sometimes my rings fall off. I took them off earlier in the evening and forgot to get them before Greg went to bed. Didn’t want to disturb him.
First heard this at a Lutheran church who loved the song so much they had copies of it they stuffed in the bulletin when they wanted to sing it!
@AndrewNewman-Pinto, this one's for you!
THANK YOU this brought tears to my eyes. You captured the essence of this song perfectly
@@AndrewNewman-Pinto So glad! Have a great weekend!
#jesusarmy 🎊 🎉😊
Another one that reminds me of my lovely piano teacher Karen. She plays for funerals (she did one at the weekend) and she's often asked to play this one. I don't have it though!
It’s newer, written in the ‘50s. Used largely in evangelical circles.
