"Try to remember the kind of September ..." It turns out that Harvey Schmidt's grandfather was a Methodist minister, so he probably did hear "Hyfrydol" multiple times while growing up.
Surprising stuff! I simply wasn't expecting to find a performance such as this from this source. Utterly superb. Congrats from t'other side of the Pond.
Only surpassed by Canon in D for greatest melody in a song. A great modern artist Peter Mayer took this tune and wrote a song called Blue Boat Home. I encourage checking that one out.
What are the specs on that organ? That antiphonal section alone puts a lot of full organs to shame. Spectacular instrument, in the hands of someone who knows how to use it effectively. Well done!

I love a church that takes its music program so seriously.
Thank you so much for the slow and deliberate tempo. So many musicians rush right through this great hymn.
Totally agree with your take. And may I add that I thoroughly appreciate the Musical worship in this Parish. God Bless one and all involved.
Yes, particularly in a large hall with slow reverb times and a large pipe organ. I wouldn't wish any slower, but this tempo does work superbly.
Wow this is so amazing like oh my gosh
Wonderful Welsh hymn tune...
"Try to remember the kind of September"
Outstanding angelic vocals. Beautiful.
This beloved hymn goes well with the following passages of Scripture: Luke 10:30-37 & Romans 13:10.
Very beautiful and prayerfully sung💞
This is my favorite setting for these lyrics.
What a magnificent set of organ pipes! Their antiphonal section alone is bigger than many churches' entire sets.

Glorious singing!!
What a beautiful hymn of Praise☆☆☆
Beautiful. Choir
The last verse harmonies were awesome!
Amen to that! And the words they sing in that last verse lifts hearts to the heavenly realms where God dwells and awaits.

Please could you share the tonic solfa note with me? I love the song and tune so much.🙏
Beautiful!

懇求主將慈愛聖靈,
吹入各煩惱心中,
主內承受一切恩祉,體貼聖靈得安息;
求主除掉愛罪心意,創始成終在於祢,
信的效果始終如一,心靈自由桎盡釋。

全能神阿求來拯救,主生命容我接受,
我心主殿求祢速臨,在我心中永居留;
但願時常頌主事主,猶如天上眾天軍,
祈禱讚揚永無停止,完全愛裡永歡欣。

求主完成再造善工,使我純潔無瑕疵,
使我得見宏大救恩,主內重獲原始義;

站立主前擲下冠冕,奇妙愛中永讚頌。

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 ev'ry trembling heart.
2.
Breathe, O breathe thy loving Spirit
Into ev-'ry troubled breast.
Let us all in thee inherit,
Let us find the promised rest.
Take away the love of sinning;
Alpha and Omega be.
End of faith, as its beginning,
Set our hearts at liberty.
3.
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.
4.
Finish, then, thy new creation;
True 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.

Yes, a great hymn which needs to be sung thoughtfully. But why are the Choir looking so miserable?
Just serious, I think. The warmth and joy are within and in the sound.
