Just take a look around - they are there! The trouble is that the most of these peoples are not so much visible but they are there and they are realizing their innermost believes - I believe that, I hope that! They are our future in a good way
My sin, oh, the bliss of this glorious thought! My sin, not in part but the whole Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, o my soul!
1 When peace like a river attendeth my way, when sorrows like sea billows roll; whatever my lot, thou hast taught me to say, "It is well, it is well with my soul." Refrain It is well with my soul; it is well, it is well with my soul. 2 Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come, let this blest assurance control: that Christ has regarded my helpless estate, and has shed his own blood for my soul. Refrain 3 My sin oh, the bliss of this glorious thought! my sin, not in part, but the whole, is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more; praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul! Refrain 4 O Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight, the clouds be rolled back as a scroll; the trump shall resound and the Lord shall descend; even so, it is well with my soul. Refrain
Yes, and what moves me the most is "My sin - not in part, but the whole - is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more. Praise the Lord, praise the Lord oh my soul!"
Gorgeous. Years ago, I softly sang this song at my mother's bedside before she passed away; then again at her funeral some days later. The hymn means much to me. Thank you for sharing your musicianship.
Oh, what a lovely recollection! My mother was a church organist for close to fifty years, and used this hymn as the recessional at nearly every funeral she played for. And I played it at hers. It means a great deal to me as well. "The trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend".
The man who wrote 'It is well with my soul' wrote the words following the death of his four children in a maritime disaster as he was devout Christian and attorney. It is a very emotional hymn to be sure that has the endurance of faith regardless of circumstances for every believer.
I went to a Ghanaian funeral at an Anglican church in London last year - this was the hymn sung as the mourners filed past the coffin to pay their respects - which took about 15 minutes and thus several repetitions for the bemused organist - but the mourners all knew it off by heart - it was quite a moment!
@@Marcel_AudubonBemused as in puzzled. One of the most experienced members of the RCO, he said afterwards he'd not come across the hymn before (neither had I), and more importantly didn't know how long the filing past was going to go on. But I'm sure you have a better word in your vocabulary for a professional organist on edge, so do please substitute. My music theory teacher, a voluble South African lady, had a penchant for building her latest tale of woe towards a crescendo of "my dear, I nearly had a cadenza!".
I really appreciate your channel. My Dad was an organist from the age of 13. He graduated from the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston, Mass. Your playing brings back many wonderful memories! Thank you!
Agreed, it is a sad story but beautifully showcases that in any adversity, our Lord and Savior is with us. The fact that you have never heard it before, and instantly loved it, speaks to the power of hymns to move hearts.
Beautifully played Ben. You are a joy to listen to. It is a great pleasure to detect that you are very spiritual. So rare to see these days in someone so young. Clearly you are an old soul. May God Bless you and keep you safe all the days of your life and beyond. Martin, South Wales.
I am loving and appreciating all of your videos , God bless you and i hope that one day you might see this comment and play ' There is a Green Hill far away ' , for us , thankyou .
That was my poor grandmother's favourite hymn. She taught it to me as a child and when she was no longer able to get about would have me sit beside her armchair and sing it for her. Thank you for mentioning it and reminding me of it. Tears in eyes here now!
Please keep playing. Touchingly beautiful. Thank gid you have the intelligence and ability to keep this light burning. Western civilization is in your debt.
This was one of the most often sung hymns in the hymnbook of our little church, but the words were totally different -- "There is rest, there is peace, in the fold".
Another classic performance from a true professional. Absolutely awesome and first class as always. Speaks to my soul 🙏 Blessings and grateful thanks to you Ben from Scotland much appreciated
Ben is so cool. I love these little church organs. I can just about play what I call the “great hymns of the church “ but only for my own pleasure. Haha!
Dung sonang rohangku dibaen Jesus i, porsuk pe hutaon dison, na pos do rohangku di Tuhanta i, dipasonang tongtong rohangkon. Sonang do, sonang do, dipasonang tongtong rohangkon. Lagu yang sangat menginspirasi...
Beautiful interpretation! I echo another comment, yes, meeting in heaven will indeed be heaven! An Eternity of praise and worship! Maybe I will even be able to play the organ ad well.😇
Das mussten wir als Kinder immer wieder mal im Kindergottesdienst singen. Da kommen alte Erinnerungen hoch, wie wir als Kinder gezwungen wurden, diesen Gottesmist mitzusingen. Heute habe ich es geschafft, die alten Choräle als Entspannungsmelodien wahrzunehmen und ich bin dann immer wieder froh über die endlose Freiheit, die ich durch die Erkenntnis gewonnen habe Traurig finde ich nur, dass dieser Gottmüll letztendlich immer noch religionsübergreifend dazu dient, die Taschen der weniger intelligenten Mitmenschen zu leeren.
Not just the church, the whole world needs more people like young Ben.
Just take a look around - they are there! The trouble is that the most of these peoples are not so much visible but they are there and they are realizing their innermost believes - I believe that, I hope that! They are our future in a good way
I am a young, learning organist hwr eine nebraska, not super young but in my 30's and i love playing
Amen!
YES!!
@@ericscheermusickeep going!!!
Thank you Ben for such beautiful renditions of hymns of the faith. What an excellent way to praise God!
A very grand rendition of this Hymn, I could see you playing the Tabernacle organ in Salt Lake City.
@@waynevaughan7159 I love the choir
Beautifully played Ben. Such a moving, sad story behind the writing of this hymn by Horatio Spafford and yet he could write 'It is well with my soul'
His story is heartbreaking and triumphant.
My sin, oh, the bliss of this glorious thought!
My sin, not in part but the whole
Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, o my soul!
it's a stunning thought, isn't it?
1 When peace like a river attendeth my way,
when sorrows like sea billows roll;
whatever my lot, thou hast taught me to say,
"It is well, it is well with my soul."
Refrain
It is well with my soul;
it is well, it is well with my soul.
2 Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come,
let this blest assurance control:
that Christ has regarded my helpless estate,
and has shed his own blood for my soul. Refrain
3 My sin oh, the bliss of this glorious thought!
my sin, not in part, but the whole,
is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more;
praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul! Refrain
4 O Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight,
the clouds be rolled back as a scroll;
the trump shall resound and the Lord shall descend;
even so, it is well with my soul. Refrain
Thank you for the words here. ❤
❤❤❤
My wish to have this sung at my funeral
They played this last Sunday at Mass during Communion. Very difficult for me to sing as tears were running from my eyes unbidden.
Yes, and what moves me the most is "My sin - not in part, but the whole - is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more. Praise the Lord, praise the Lord oh my soul!"
Know the feeling
Ben, thank you for playing that. I hope we meet in heaven some day! That was awesome.
Gorgeous.

I love this hymn. You are a fantastic organist. Thank you!
The same thing happens to me when I sing this at church or when I hear it.
I really appreciate your channel. My Dad was an organist from the age of 13. He graduated from the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston, Mass. Your playing brings back many wonderful memories! Thank you!
Whenever my heart and body feels weak becoz of temptation, depression i came here to hear this music and i feel better much calm and restored
My sentiments exactly! X🙏👍❤️
Just a stunning performance of a great song God Bless All 🎹🎵🎶🙏🙏🙏

It is well with my soul to hear beautiful pipe organ music. ❤❤
I wish I had been in your Church when you played this beautiful hymn.
How lovely that thanks to Ben, even the most commonplace and insignificant Englisch village organs are saved from oblivion ...
You create emotion in those listening to your music.
Another cracking video. I haven’t heard this hymn before but I instantly love it!
Find out the story behind it. It will have you in tears.
Agreed, it is a sad story but beautifully showcases that in any adversity, our Lord and Savior is with us.
The fact that you have never heard it before, and instantly loved it, speaks to the power of hymns to move hearts.
Wow, that organ sounds great with Ben at the helm!

This was one of the most often sung hymns in the hymnbook of our little church, but the words were totally different -- "There is rest, there is peace, in the fold".

Só a Rede mesmo para trazer aos brasileiros música e organista tão maravilhosos. "Sou Feliz com Jesus, meu Senhor".

Ben. Your channel is a laugh, something different. Keep it up. How about some Widor?
One of my all time favorites. You make it thunder just right, Ben. Props from the wilds of Arkansas.
