There is nothing like a group of Lutherans singing!!! It is wonderful.
Our church recently brought back the Matins service and I couldn't be happier about it. Our pastor is making strides fixing a wayward congregation.
Our church has been doing the opposite, sadly. We got rid of matins during Covid and never brought it back. Now for that reason and many more, our church is dividing and our pastors are basically saying how doing matins is wrong and everything we had done in the past has been wrong.
@@thebeardyfarmeradventuresi258 Wow. Really? Where? (I drive an hour to Bethlehem every Sunday because they still use the 1941 liturgy.)
Remember when we used to physically attend church, hear a sermon, pray together, worship and and sing? Yeah, me, too. I sure miss those days.
We have an eternity of worship ahead of us. I can’t wait.
Remind people that it is so much better & powerful, if they go. It transforms you. & those around you.
Everybody wants that glow, but you have to go to fully get it.
This is maybe the most beautiful piece of the traditional LCMS liturgy.
You could not be anymore correct! =)
And the Venite as well.
I’d put the Pre-Reformation plainsong Compline setting higher, or maybe the chant for the Words of Institution (which originated among Lutherans, I believe). The Anglican chant used here for the Te Deum, written by Henry Lawes (the bread of the chant tone sandwich, at least), is usually used for Psalm 8, Psalm 100, or the Magnificat among Anglicans themselves, though I do remember seeing at least one book of Anglican chant where it also was used to set the Te Deum. That might have been the source used by American Lutherans in selecting this chant tone.
I LOVE this piece with its lyrics and variety of tonality and melody.
Greetings from Hope Lutheran Missouri Synod, Glendora, CA
I have been using the Matins service from the CPH Treasury of Daily Prayer and was/am having difficulty singing this alone so this video will be very helpful for my daily devotions. I hope to get it memorized as well as I have memorized the Venite. Then onward to the Magnificat. 😀
Reminds me of my childhood when we used The Lutheran Hymnal 1941 edition. A good combination of Anglican Chant melodies for The Te Deum
The service on page 32, if I remember correctly.
Same here - takes me way back.
I would love to be there singing with this gathering. They do a great job of praising the Lord.
1 We praise you, O God; we acknowledge you to be the Lord.
All the earth now worships you, the Father everlasting.
To you all angels cry aloud, the heav'ns and all the pow'rs therein.
To you cherubim and seraphim continually do cry:
2 Holy, holy holy, Lord God of Sabaoth;
heav'n and earth are full of the majesty of your glory.
The glorious company of the apostles praise you.
The goodly fellowship of the prophets praise you.
3 The noble army of martyrs praise you.
The holy Church throughout all the world does acknowledge you:
The Father of an infinite majesty; your adorable, true, and only Son;
also the Holy Ghost, the Comforter.
4 You are the King of glory, O Christ;
you are the everlasting Son of the Father.
5 When you took upon yourself to deliver man,
you humbled yourself to be born of a virgin.
When you had overcome the sharpness of death,
you opened the kingdom of heav'n to all believers.
6 You sit at the right hand of God
in the glory of the Father.
We believe that you will come to be our judge.
7 We therefore pray you to help your servants,
whom you have redeemed with your precious blood.
Make them to be numbered with your saints
in glory everlasting.
8 O Lord, save your people and bless your heritage.
Govern them and lift them up forever.
9 Day by day we magnify you;
And we worship your name, forever and ever.
10 Vouchsafe, O Lord, to keep us this day without sin.
O Lord, have mercy upon us, have mercy upon us.
11 O Lord, let your mercy be upon us, as our trust is in you.
O Lord, in you have I trusted; let me never be confounded.
Glory be to God in Highest!
Excellent. The organist does it right.
Used to look forward to Tuesday and Matins in chapel at Luther South in Chicago so I could sing this.
Reminds me of Matins during chapel at my old high school (Our Saviour Lutheran, the Bronx, NY) back in the 60s! I am fond of this and remember it well.@Robert E Waters
Beautiful. Soli Deo Gloria!
How wonderful to hear this sung! Beautiful hymn of praise!
Yes, it is. We sang it at my daughter's baptism (from TLH 1941) 35 years ago! Seems like yesterday.
Praise Be!
God be praised.
I would love to go to this church. They participate so well there.........it's inspiring to see so many people worshiping together !!
I have been an Anglican for a long time and have never sung this. Mattins has virtually disappeared parish worship although Evening Prayer is still found but only in larger churches. It is a sad fact that evening worship has declined along with churches numbers over the past 20 years or so.
Interestingly, in The Hymnal 1940, this chant tone by Henry Lawes is recommended for the Jubilate, and in The Hymnal 1982, for the Magnificat. I did see it recommended for the Te Deum in one book of Anglican chant, but I forget which-that might be where the Lutherans picked it up.
Enjoyed the playing of the organ, peace
Wonderful music absolutely stunning
Beautiful!!!
So powerful and majestic .... thank you!
Stunning
Thank you so much for sharing this. A timeless hymn, I wish my church would sing this once in a while. Most ppl in my county would not know how to read chant tho, so it would probably bomb, sadly.
I grew up with this. Desperate to know the musical setting. Please post.
It’s the Te Deum Laudamus from The Lutheran Hymnal. The Order of Matins begins on page 32.
Many thanks.
Awesome. Lovely memories from my choir days
Good rendition
I miss the 1941 hymnal
The tune of this is one by Henry Lawes. Does it have a name? I can't find an organ only version here on youtube.
Can anyone tell me the name of this tune?
I am not 100% sure where this music comes from. The 'Te Deum' is part of the Matins Service and this is in a Lutheran Setting. The Te Deum has been used by various denominations over the years and put to different music, some of it from famous composers. I hate to pass out wrong information but I think in this case it is Hymn #941 from the Lutheran Service Book. We Praise You and Acknowledge You, O God. Someone please correct me if I am wrong. If it is this version and I am correct then the composer was Gustav Holst, 1874-1934.
Thank you. I am Anglican (Episcopalian in the USA) and I recently asked an organist to go through the tunes in his music book and the one that sounded like this to me was a tune by Henry Lawes. I could be mistaken but it sounded like this to me.
mgoodwi1 - I gave you wrong information. Hymn 941 from the Lutheran Service Book is 'We Praise You and Acknowledge You' but it is to the same tune as the British hymn "I Vow To Thee my Country" which I love to listen to but think the wording could be stronger. It is definitely a hymn that will get the emotions flowing though. I will try to figure out the real origin of the music used for the Lutheran Te Deum and get back to you.
I don't know that the tune has a "name." It is the setting for the Te Deum Laudamus in the Office of Matins in The Lutheran Hymnal (TLH) of 1941: "We praise thee, O God: We acknowledge thee to be the Lord. All the earth doth worship thee the Father Everlasting ... ." The Te Deum is a canticle for Matins (daily morning prayer) in the Western Church (Roman, Lutheran, Anglican) and has also traditionally been used for very great occasions such as coronations, victory in war, deliverance from war, royal births and weddings, deliverance from plagues, etc., for many centuries. It is generally regarded as the most exalted in diction and comprehensive in doctrine of all Christian hymns. The text is of unknown origin, but tradition has it that it was composed by St Ambrose of Milan when he baptized St Augustine of Hippo in the 4th century. Almost all famous composers have set the text to music. You'll find plenty of them here on You Tube. The Dettingen Te Deum by Haydn is one of the best-known settings (composed for victory in war). Bruckner's setting is often sung by local choral societies.
This is in our Methodist Hymnal and simply notes the tune name as TE DEUM LAUDAMUS by Henry Lawes 1595-1661 & (the minor section) Robert Cooke 1768-1814
I love the Matins so dearly ( TLH ) . One criticism here : the Pastor and officiants are dressed appropriately ; why can't there be the same standard for the young people . They need to be taught that appropriate dress pleases God .
This service was part of a 4-day summer youth conference, during which the youth attend 14 services (and they do attend them all!). They are dressed appropriately for the activities they'll be doing for the whole day.
@@HTgospel4all Thank you , I understand , but it is still unacceptable . Historically speaking ( as well as biblically ) all should be dressed as becomes the house of God . Otherwise , the Pastor and officiants do not have to dress in any particular way .
No one has to dress in any particular way. And it's unrealistic to expect (or demand) that teenagers change clothes 3-4 times a day to attend each prayer office, or to wear dress clothes as they walk around a college campus to other conferences activities in the summer heat. There are two Divine Services/masses as well, during the week, and quite a lot of the attendees do dress up more for those particular services.
@@HTgospel4all Thanks, Higher Things, for standing up for the kids who attended this service. I love your ministry, and I'm not Lutheran, at least not yet. This criticism seems like another attempt to add law to our Christian life. God sees through anything we wear anyway!
@@stephenkammerling9479 Are you denying the third use of the law?
Why is that women on the lower left hand of the screen wearing short - short's and a halter top and flip flops on her feet? So disrespectful!
many others wearing shorts as well
First let me say I am one of the VERY FEW people in many congregatons that always wears a coat and tie to go to church: respect. With a few doctrinal exceptions, I am as conservative as they come.HOWEVER: This is a young people conference. No disrespect intended .... that's how kids and young adults dress. The statement should be "How great it is to see them there! "Later we can move them up to appropriate attire for their own usual worship at home.
Good thing this isn't an Orthodox Church, especially since alot of these women don't have their heads covered.
@@chaplainstrunk1154 I would like to delve into the eschatology of the Orthodox Church but I would like to know where I can get good study materials and reading directions. Could you suggest something?

Too bad the organist has to play so loudly. That is extremely irritating.
Thanks for watching!
Seems fine for a completely full house of confident singers
