So many wonderful things to say about this. First, how wonderful it is to see and hear a "contemporary" worship song executed so well on an organ! Organ music can still be a vital part of today's Christian worship. Second, notice how loudly the congregation is singing. That is the result of two things, in my opinion: a congregation who is absolutely sincere as they sing their Christian convictions AND an organist who knows how to use the organ to properly lead congregational singing. Third, what a brilliant arrangement and equally brilliant use of the organ's registration to color the accompaniment! The organ shines, but it doesn't overshadow the congregational singing, it augments it. Excellent work, Mr. Metzger. Thank you for posting this; it truly glorifies the Lord Jesus Christ! Praise the Lord!
It SURE would be NICE if in the "Show More" section of this video - gave some necessary basic information such as "What church is this?" "Where is the church (city, and state)?" Perhaps even some info about the pipe organ -- since this giant enclosed pipe organ which stands massively behind the choir is unusual in its massive, wooden encased, presence. And what (pray tell) are the two other massive wooden enclosures on either side of the choir? Do they contain pipes also? If not, whiat's inside of them? What are they for (functionally)?
@@jv04jm Thanks you EVER so much !!! I was able to go look at a demo of the organ on RUclips, and also look at the stoplist -- with the info you supplied. Much appreciated. If by any chance you are with MetzgerMusic, please please add this vital info to the "More" (info) area of the video. Once again thank you, thank you!!

It also helps to have a 45 member choir right in front of the congregation.
@@James_Bowie Absolutely, but all of that singing is not coming from just the choir.
Well said! (A very good transition/transposing to another key signature. Well done!)
Love that the priest in robes raising his hand in worship! This is beautiful.
Great melody and when choirs love it...... enough said. Mighty sound.........
Covenant Presbyterian Church in Nashville, TN. Blessing and peace in Christ, our Redeemer!
Love that precious hymn what a blessing
This is the epitome of "contempory" and classic brought together perfectly. Well done! 👌😇
Agreed.
Love the organ. So much power. Such a full and glorious sound.
That key change is glorious!
Right?!?! 👌
This is a great version of this song.
This lonely church organist finds comfort in Metzger's videos.
🤗
GOOSE BUMPS!
Agreed.
Magnífico!!!!! From: São Paulo-Brasil
I Am Baptist I Love this liturgy.
What happened to the older video?
Where can I purchase this sheet music to perform at our church?
I'm wondering the same!
I've messaged Mr. Metzger, hoping for a reply!

Very nice! Where was this recording made?
