Lo! he comes with clouds descending (Helmsley)

- Lo! he comes with clouds descending,
once for our salvation slain;
thousand, thousand saints attending
swell the triumph of his train:
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
Christ the Lord returns to reign.
Every eye shall now behold him,
robed in dreadful majesty;
those who set at nought and sold him,
pierced, and nailed him to the tree,
deeply wailing, deeply wailing, deeply wailing,
shall the true Messiah see.
Those dear tokens of his passion
still his dazzling body bears,
cause of endless exultation
to his ransomed worshipers;
with what rapture, with what rapture, with what rapture,
gaze we on those glorious scars!
Yea, amen! let all adore thee,
high on thine eternal throne;
Savior, take the power and glory;
claim the kingdom for thine own:
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
Thou shalt reign, and thou alone.
Words: Charles Wesley
Music: Helmsley, melody A. Arne; improvised accompaniment by Robert McCormick, last verse after Martin How
The organ pedal point and improv make me want to get up and shout praise to God even at 3 30 in the morning. Beautiful procession. Magnificent choir. The best videography of any church livestreaming.
yah they do a great job. You might also like to get St Thomas' in NYC a go--beautifully produced videography.
A great hymn - I'm playing it tomorrow morning. Beautiful, dignified Anglican ceremonial.
CONGRATULATIONS to St Mark's for holding high the liturgical and musical standards (and not descending into the crass banality of what goes on in many of America's churches today) ! God Grant You Many Years !
Magnificent Advent hymn
This is THE penultimate Advent hymn.
I'm Adventist but I love this Church. 👌🏻😎
Of course you do. This church and others like it are our connection to our cousins in the UK.
It's a jewel. 🎉
@@yvonneplant9434 Amen 👌🏻😎
Singing this tomorrow at Lessons & Carols, The Episcopal Church of the Redeemer, Bethesda, MD. Tune in at 5pm EST! This version sounds great. 👍
What a very wonderful hymn. And strange to think one may have to go across to the USA to see traditional ritual and ceremonial.
Why to the US?
As a Roman Catholic I longed these traditional rituals. I remember the censer it had to go up first then a swing in the middle and finally a swing lower , n and the boy thuriféraire had to censer the faithful; left then middle then right side the side of the saved! All is symbols but without them there is imo no sense in our lives. Keep on brethen Angicans and Episcopalians one day the RC will come back to olden days of celebrating God. Vatican II was a total awful waste.
Still happens at the Traditional Latin Mass, at Divine Worship in the Ordinariate of the Chair of St. Peter, and at Eastern Catholic Divine Liturgies.
Episcopalians doing Mass better than most Catholics 😪🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️🙏🏼❤️❤️ God bless you all for a liturgy worthy of God Almighty !
AMEN, AMEN, SAY IT AGAIN AMEN!
I felt the same 20 years ago at St. Louis Basillica. It was rather diluted.... we Anglicans are more Catholic than they are ... and the music was??? Not up to my organist standards.
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Mass is not better because of a choir and incense. It's not about smells and bells. Mass is about the Holy Eucharist and all the other peripheries direct us to that grand moment. So let's not start with better or worse.
Go to a Latin mass, then you don’t have to worry about bad music. P.s. the catholic mass is the only true mass no where else can you receive out lord truly and bodily present

Not my faith but very beautiful hymn 👍❤️
The faith is Christian the Episcopal Church ia a denomination. within the Christian faith..
Yikesee yikesee. MAN, that's high liturgy.
(How did we Roman papists get so left in the dust??)
The Episcopal Church gets it right.
The beautiful hymns with organ are outstanding plus blue vestments and people in pews singing ….
@@Modeltnick Can't disagree!
The Catholic Church absolutely lacks nothing in comparison to Henry VIII church.
@@michaelbarry1664 your sour grapes are kinda out of place here.
