Precious Lord arranged by Arnold Sevier

The consonants. The singular breathing. The dynamics. The attention to detail. Spellbound.
Their shadow vowels are absolutely stunning.

I died the result is absolutely stunning
My choir director brought this arrangement to us when I was in college. It was such a beautiful arrangement of this piece that we all loved it. It wasn’t until the the night before our concert that he told us about his wife’s passing that week due to a long battle with cancer. The poor man broke down and it was clearly a reason he chose the piece. I don’t think a single one of us sang a piece more clearly, beautifully, or heartfelt before or after that night.
Beautiful rendition. Thanks for sharing this moment
I am crying oh my gosh
What a rare quality of singing rarely seen these days. No equipment and gimmicks, just beautiful young voices praising God in harmony with one another. Such a blessing!
Seriously? Go to African school videos.
Equipment and gimmicks are part of my generation's self expression, we are allowed to be expressive with what we are provided. You have no right to define for another's what is valid or valable means of self expression. No one told beethoven to not put a Tuba, Contrabassoon or choir with and orchestra, those were all innovations of the time.
The bass tho..wow
This is the most beautiful arrangement I’ve EVER HEARD!!!!! I’ve listened to this over and over and over!!!!!!
Arnold Sevier Wrote this arrangement when he was a teen. It's now available in sheet music. Please buy a copy.
Me, too!

So rich with harmony & flavor 🙌🏾

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
Look at their faces when they sing. They love this as much as we love listening. It takes us through a series of emotions ranging from happy to sad. The whole audience should be in tears when this is sung…whether at rehearsal or performance. Nicely done
This choir needs to be WORLD famous! Amazing!!!
This small choir practice room has such a dry sound signature that it exposes every single voice in the room. Everyone has to be on point, no mistakes, and it also highlights in excruciating detail each little musical direction the conductor shows. They're following him so precisely that, as a singer, I can practically see the director's hands in front of me, and I feel the direction in my body even though I'm not even singing along. Bravo all.
This arrangement is so still and beautiful ...It is an embrace as you listen to it ... Many hear this song as sadness; but I hear the peace after a storm, being guided to safety, protected, loved, renewed . . . Safely having crossed the peak of that mountain, moving forward now holding God's hand ...
Amen!
daljeigula okaaaay, you colored that picture👍🏽💫✨

The arranger, Arnold Sevier (at least 75 years old) is still very much alive and resides in Chicago.
I had one of the worst days since the pandemic started. I was feeling distraught. Returning to this brings me comfort. 💕
Since I was introduced to the Aoelians back in high school in the 80s the quality of their sound, their ministry has never diminished. May God continue to bless all the. Members of the past, present and those to come.
It's so beautiful they began in the key B Flat major, and along the time, they naturally rest in A major. One of the most peaceful and comfortable sounds i heard in my life. God bless you!
The expressions! The pureness! The dissonance! That ending! The discipline! New fan here! Thank you for blessing us.
They're awesome! Did you mean to say dissonance?
@@prayerpower1585 - I think "The Hope Andro Show" did mean "dissonance" - The complex chord clusters that are in this arrangement create BEAUTIFUL "ear bending" dissonances that only enhance the resolutions of those dissonances. ☺️
This was my grandfather's favorite hymn as he pastored for more than 65 years. Thank you Oakwood U Aeolians for blessing my soul with this masterpiece.
Amazing. That last hmmm at 3:05 put a smile on my face. Excellence of the highest order. Glory be to God.
What these guys pull off is incredibly difficult. There is a very clear difference between them and thousands of other choirs. Bravo!
Innovative, velcro harmony, resonant, elegant, sustained, serious: even scholarly, architectural in design and execution, not plaintive; pleading like the original: more assured, exacting sure. Exceedingly lovely.
Those Sopranos...❤️ awesome sound all around
Im telling e everyone whose listening to this video to put her/his earphones wow god is good and big i love you Jesus christ my lord
I'm telling YOU!! I've got my earbuds on, it brings tears to my eyes. This Aeolian Choir is some kind of beautiful!! 👋🏾👋🏾😢😢
@@CathyGrisby they make me thing how will heaven sound like
@@qhawe-r7g Yes, they do!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽
I've only listened to this 1000 times...I've shared it on my social media! voices are like Angels, I imagine this is what the heavenly Angels must sound like...
I am at a season in my life where i am tired and weak and I need God to recreate me into the women I need to be. I just came across this song this morning, it sent me into straight prayers and worship. I never knew that this is what I needed. Thank you so much, you guys are truly anointed by God 💛💛💛
That alto sound between 1:21 and 1:28 made me shiver. This is my weakness
“Precious Lord, Take My Hand”
Lyrics
Precious Lord, take my hand
Lead me on, let me stand
I'm tired, I’m weak, I’m lone
Through the storm, through the night
Lead me on to the light
Take my hand precious Lord, lead me home
When my way grows drear precious Lord linger near
When my light is almost gone
Hear my cry, hear my call
Hold my hand lest I fall
Take my hand precious Lord, lead me home
When the darkness appears and the night draws near
And the day is past and gone
At the river I stand
Guide my feet, hold my hand
Take my hand precious Lord, lead me home
Precious Lord, take my hand
Lead me on, let me stand
I'm tired, I’m weak, I’m lone
Through the storm, through the night
Lead me on to the light
Take my hand precious Lord, lead me home
with this, i forget my problems and just think only of chords
This is what angels sound like,it tears me up with joy to know my mom,dad,and 2 brothers are hearing this
You guys blessed my heart this weekend in Johannesburg, South Africa... I have never Re-fallen in love with music like this before
They seem to be blessing my weekend in Durban a year later. Just Wow!
I listen to this particular piece at least 5 maybe 7 times a day. This piece is the reason why I want to go back to school to get my degree in music education
What with everything happening in the world right now, the last part of my senior year was recently cancelled. I sang this song with my choir last October and it keeps coming back to me in all my sadness and confusion. Whether I'm listening or singing along, this particular recording brings me more comfort than ever before, and I will always be grateful for the inspiration and reassurance it gave (and still gives) me. Thank you so much to everyone involved in sharing this music with the wider world.
If I put it in my will that I want the Aeolians to sing at my funeral celebration, would that work? Of course, it would be one of the next several generations--unless God calls me sooner than I expect--but I'd love to go to Glory to the sound of your voices. You make Heaven seem very near.
As I am writing from Tanzania, am really blown away by this crafted arrangement. I love music and this song brings heaven to earth. Keep it up my dear brothers and sisters. I love you all. Blessings.
It was an honor to prepare a meal several years ago for these amazingly talented individuals. It was heavenly to hear them sing after the meal.
cried. so much soul and beauty in this rendition!!
This song never fails to bring me to tears no matter how many times I listen. It's like my heart gets pulled out of my chest. Pretty much the most incredible choral arrangement I've ever heard and an absolutely stellar performance.

I could literally melt 😲😲😲my brain might explode cuz WHAT!!!!!!!!!! Y'all are so so goooooooooooooooood
Mr. Arnold Sevier arrangement this lovely hymn…..
best EbM7 chord I've ever heard in my life. simply amazing.
Here I am back again for this, just love watching the pure love and appreciation for the sound they're making on their faces! Cannot get enough of this! Thank you Oakwood.
Listening to this on repeat and praying today. My little nephew died in his sleep last night.
So sorry for your family's loss. May God bless you all in your sorrow
I’m in my rooming crying… this was my grandmother’s favorite song. We lost her in 2019 and this how I wanna believe she was ushered into heaven. Thank you for this beautiful rendition.
Encore!!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 What a beautiful presentation! The annunciations, tones, vocal control and superb blending and it’s all encapsulated in sophistication!! And Acapella? Y’all straight clowning!! I love it!!!
I’m so glad I came across this. #HBCUExcellence it may just be singing to some but they are ministering to me.
The annunciation is impeccable and the harmonies!! Gives me chills.
Their fabulous blend reached out and hugged me!
I would have loved to be in that room at that moment. Listening through my phone does not do this beauty of harmonies justice. If I were there I would've closed my eyes as I listened and let the warmth of sound wrap my body like a blanket.
Excellent. The dynamics are perfect. Shew. When I peeped those black and whites on the wall as they were singing, I lost it. Just awesome.
Sheesh ! Listen with earphones ! The bass is something else!
Thank God for y'all !
God bless this choir 💖
Every once in a while, I come back to this video at random. Somehow, it’s always when I need it most.
Wow wow wow Thank you to whoever took the time to upload this video. I needed to hear this and see this today. We are all mirrors of each other and I want to express gratitude to anyone who needs it today. Thank you!
You Aeolians always sound some kind of wonderful!! 🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️
Sometimes words fail me when I hear truly beautiful music such as this. The quality of their voices, the emotion that is put into their performance, just truly inspiring and God given
The best version of this song on the internet! ❤️
I am so very moved !
Please keep singing...
Its the only hope for this dying world.
You are an inspiring group of singers!!! Very musical and so "easy" sounding. Wonderful placement, incredible intonation, rhythmic accuracy. awesome phrasing and text stress. MUAH! Love you all! I soooooo enjoyed playing for this for my students! They said. "Wow, so THAT is what are consonants are supposed to sound like!" :)
Wow how rare is this form of power and beauty! In a world of loud and screaming noise, this is healing ointment to my soul. Thank you so much dear young people.
Bless u allllll as u blesssss my soul! U represent so beautifully the more than 100 year history of your HBCU! U calm my spirit !
Never needed this song more than ever.
I love this song, the words are my prayer right now s I grieve for my beloved father😢
The hums at the end sounded like the string section of an orchestra…magnificently brilliant
Beautiful, just beautiful🙏🏽👏
1:46 gets me every time
Wow! This video says more than music. The training leading up to this video, show dedication!
The harmony is out of this world✨✨✨💫🙏🏽🙌🏽

Love this arrangement, and it's even better with these beautiful faces and voices
OMG....I Love theese voices and theese amazing harmonies❤❤❤....more than Beautiful and blessed!
Singing this tomorrow morning in church. I pray we come even close to this sublime sound. Many voices, singing as one, blended perfectly and felt in the soul. God bless!
I am obsessed. Please post more videos shot just like this of this group (so we can see their beautiful facial expressions). Thank you.
Thanks for your comment. We will be doing so!
Outstanding Y'all...can't really find the words to express how moved I am. Brings back some of the greatest memories of my life singing in the Morris Brown College Concert Choir 1989-1993.
The most amazing version of my favorite. Thank you. Your voices speak wonders to my soul. Love❤
The gifts of the Lord, prayerfully worshipping and praising his name.
Beautiful instruments of God, giving him glory and honor. Excellent!!!
Shame on the 7 people who downvoted this audio gift from Heaven.
That's ok, their fingers needed something to do...it got exercised!
This choir, just incredible.
Chills. Actual chills from this rendition. Thank you for blessing us with this immaculate work!!
Ohhhhh that was rich✨💫 and so much talent you guys👍🏽my hat 🎩 off to you and the talented music director! Kudos 👍🏽💫✨🖖🏽❤️❤️❤️❤️🎼👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Simply amazing 💖🙏🏾
The best choir ever!!!
What a beautiful, moving, and stirring arrangement!
I first discovered this reharmonization 21-22 years ago, when it was presented to me as a piece for the VA All-State choir. I’ve been looking looking for this arrangement ever since, for about 22 years…, and was nearly brought to tears by your performance. Thank you. God bless your director and i hope all of you continue to do great work.
I have been with groups who have done this arrangement for years, and I’ve NEVER heard better. Pronunciation is crisp and extremely easy to understand. Use of dynamics is FABULOUS. Congratulations. What wonderful communication!!
Still can’t get enough of these beautiful voices! Glad it’s still her birthday too!
I’ve listened to this about a kajillion times, but tonight it has new meaning. My niece has COVID, is on a ventilator, and they may take her off the ventilator tomorrow bc there is no hope.
Those harmonies! Breathtaking
I became a fan today ! From Ghana in Russia..... staggering!!!!!!
What a journey.
Sooo beautiful, what a blessing!
Idk how many times I’ve rewatched this
So beautiful..So beautiful..so appropriate for how I and many of us are feeling in the times we are living.🙏🏽
Through the storms through the night lead me on to the light. Take my hand, Lord, and lead me on. Amen
The phrasing of the first line of the second verse (1:30) really gets me. The whole thing is a superb trifecta of goodness, truth, and beauty.
Beautiful people. Beautiful souls. Beautiful voices.
Things yall did: That! Great Job.
Lovely singing, Precious Lord I need you to take my hand and lead me home. Sometimes it is so dark, and lonely in those times Lord I need you Lord to come near to take my hand and guide my feet and hold my hand. Beautiful.
.
OH TAKE ME GOD TO HEAVEN . . . . on these waves of love. So delicate, so deep, so rich, every note, every word intentionally and lovingly placed . . . . amazing . . .
thank you so much for sharing this with the world! i love this arrangement and y'all do such an amazing job with it. it brought tears to my eyes. it took me back to my days singing with black voices at msu. praise His name!
The altos in this group are absolutely unreal. 1:46 that F# sharp is so subtle but so good
this takes me to another place mentally, emotionally and spiritually. so thankful for the chance to hear these voices sing together
Absolutely beautiful arrangement!
Chills! So beautiful!
i am in awe. i’m literally ascending listening to this. incredibly talented singers and kudos to whoever is directing them you are amazing. hands down. i wish a part of something like this. truly inspiring.
