- A video set to the hymn Dear Lord and Father of Mankind.
The soundtrack was recorded live at the NBA Big Sing in Newcastle upon Tyne.
Dear Lord and Father of mankind,
Forgive our foolish ways;
Reclothe us in our rightful mind,
In purer lives Thy service find,
In deeper reverence, praise.
In simple trust like theirs who heard,
Beside the Syrian sea,
The gracious calling of the Lord,
Let us, like them, without a word,
Rise up and follow Thee.
O Sabbath rest by Galilee,
O calm of hills above,
Where Jesus knelt to share with Thee
The silence of eternity,
Interpreted by love!
With that deep hush subduing all
Our words and works that drown
The tender whisper of Thy call,
As noiseless let Thy blessing fall
As fell Thy manna down.
Drop Thy still dews of quietness,
Till all our strivings cease;
Take from our souls the strain and stress,
And let our ordered lives confess
The beauty of Thy peace.
Breathe through the heats of our desire
Thy coolness and Thy balm;
Let sense be dumb, let flesh retire;
Speak through the earthquake, wind, and fire,
O still, small voice of calm.
I always remember my girlfriend singing this hymn when she came through my back gate when I lived I Markham Street, York in 1974. She was singing this beautiful hymn of faith as she walked up the garden path. It was so special those moments I listened to her sing. I married her the following year.
Thank you so much for sharing that. So beautiful. . . Makes me think how it must please the Lord to hear His children sing . . . Sing, Church of God!
She read you and manipulated you! I know! My friend bought every pink floyd album to seduce her crush who loved them. Women have to be this way. No choice. I bet she was a pretty girl?
Very inspirational story...May the same Love continue to flow through you....🙏
What a beautiful story 🌹⚓️❤️
@@user-re2ey4ti4v amen and I too agree that the Church of God is should sing out his praises
Today I ask that God will hear my prayer being a foolish child in the last few weeks , I lay it all at His feet today that He would cleanse and forgive my foolishness, that I might walk with Him free of all strain and stress.
Amen.
I am a muslim and I cry like a baby while listening to this.
Blessings dear friend I'm praying for you 🙏
Jesus is our best friend who never leaves us ever....xxx
It doesn't matter what your religion is brother we're all Gods people we're all going to the same place we're just taking different roads x
I cry when ever I hear this hymn . it reminds me of how gracious god has been to me.
The Father's love, the Son's light and the Holy Spirit's peace be with you now and always. To God be the glory. Amen.
I Love these words for me my love of Jesus,I never want to be deaf it's so beautiful ...and the scenery .perfect.
This hymn has been for me a prayer at the most difficult times of my life and I have prayed the verses on many occasions when driving to my various places of work.
"Drop thy still dews of quietness till all our strivings cease.
Take from our souls the strain and stress
And let our ordered lives confess
The beauty of thy peace." A prayer for all people at all times,
I can relate because of the comment I made above just now
Amen!
ChristianScience hymn text.
It affirmed what I was experiencing when I became a believer. AND PASS ON that someone unknown to me, needs URGENT prayer, a female who sounds suicidal, may be an unbeliever and is under physical and spiritual abuse. I sent her the verse beginning "Breathe through the heats of our desire.."
Oh wow 🤦 I thought I was the only one 🤷
I cry whenever I hear this hymn. It reminds me of how gracious God has been to me.
Have loved this hymn since I learnt it in pprimary school in1954
I learned this at. School in Canada so i Guess its world wide
Same for me, but in 1957 !
I've heard this in the Atonement movie and I've fallen in love with that hymn right away
It's a beautiful scene
Me too
@@FallouFitness_NattyEdition ko9
Me too!
Also me
This used to be our school hymn when I was at boarding school in the 60's. I still love to hear it today ❤
I chose this beautiful hymn for my dear Mother's funeral last week, bless her.💖 Sadly, no-,one was allowed to sing because of Corona so it was instrumental,, but I played this beautiful live version over and over again afterwards the same day (and still) as I thought of her....😥
Best wishes to you
@@diasciapink7558 Thank you so much! 😀
So sorry for your loss, especially in these circumstances. It is a beautiful hymn and I hope it brings you comfort.
I shall likely have this hymn too...synchronicity switched on radio just now and heard it again. What a beautiful memory of your mothers funeral service. My condolences. I lost my mum too last March. I am unwell myself but live well until the Devine calls me.
@@fiona-lyons Thank you for your kind words, this hymn has become very precious to me! 😀
Reminds me of my schooldays with a lot of nostalgia
I'm a 'spiritual agnostic'. But I still find this hymn connects with me in a way I can't explain.
It really is very beautiful.
If it connects with you, it's likely God showing himself to you. I used to be agnostic too. However, these hints of the beauty and majesty of the Lord have build over time and have pushed me and others on the path towards faith.
Amen. It is the Spirit of the Lord drawing you. Read His Word: Jesus is the Word of God; He is the Rock beneath our feet; His Word is the Rock we stand on (as did He). Ask, seek, knock; it will be given; you will find; the door will be opened. Jesus is the door. His Word is a fathomless deep but we begin by dipping our toes in. He is also the Truth and, yes, His Word is truth. He cannot lie. He never has; He never will. "Whosoever comes to Me, I will in no wise cast out." He is also "Jehovah Shammah" - the God who is there. That's why we can go to Him. We go with all our doubts, questions, fears: He gives us Himself and we 'taste and see that the LORD is good.' May He bless you richly and if you have already been brought to know Him may He continue to bless and keep you! He is able! He alone.
I sang this song when I was nine years old and now sixty years later remember every word ,it stays with you must be so beautiful you never forget it,thank you for my memory coming alive ,Shirley h Darlington England
Same here Shirley - stays with you through life.
I went to Sacred heart Heart catholic school in Batterses through the 70's an a girl in my class's little toddler brother passed away from if I remember correctly whooping cough. All our class attended the funeral at the church with is joined to the school, it was the first funeral I ever attended an remember it vividly, this song which was played at the service has never left me and always gives me a sense of comfort.
@@rebeccafuller3461 prayers and condolences for you, your family and loved ones 💙
As I got older, I began to feel the peace this hymn gives
1 Kings 19
11. And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake:
12. And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.
13. And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entering in of the cave. And, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said, What doest thou here, Elijah?
Psalm 29:
11. The LORD will give strength unto his people; the LORD will bless his people with peace. Psalm 37
11. But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace. Hebrews12
28. Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: To God Alone Be All The Glory. Hallelujah. Amen. Oh Come LORD Jesus.
Thank you for this. Perfect peace really is only to be found in our creator. What Jesus did for us is overwhelming. I am endlessly grateful & in awe.
My favourite hymn as a school boy educated at expensive fee paying schools and long before I asked Jesus Christ to come into my heart at the age of 24. It was my preparation to a life time in service to my Lord And King and Master and brother and best friend.
Jesus is not just my crutch but my wheelchair. I cannot and will not live without him...VERY VERY NOSTALGIC!!!!!!!!!!!!
Amen.
Enlightened Patriot
You have squandered your existence for a hypothetical tooth-fairy. Foolish individual.
how does one get jesus by simply asking? I asked for jesus and there was no jesus came to me that I could recognise as any jesus. could it be that jesus is simply your own state of mind? could it be that for jesus to come we must change our state of mind? not really putting my point across very well... but we think of this jesus as being some external spiritual being, but what if it's our own spiritual being and no amount of asking will bring it... therefore we can only rely on our own strength to be that christ consciousness we ask for guidance from. fuck life... just fuck life.
Were you at Repton school perchance? My brothers were both educated there and I was born and raised in Repton. 😁
I see the English soldiers singing this in Dunkirk, waiting to go home. Atonement
Love this hymn , had it at my dad's funeral . The words are uplifting and inspiring.
This hymn reminds me of school assemblies 40 years ago. It's a beautiful song with a message that we could all take heed of in these loud and hectic times. It helped me return to Christ after a very long absence. This version of Dear Lord and Father of Mankind is divine, so simple and unpretentious. Thanks for posting. It made me very happy.
Me too, loved this hymn
SIMPLE SPOTLESS SACRED SHIELD SACRIFICE SHINNING SAVIOR KING LORD JESUS
Pure simple still beautiful hymn
Just love this hymn to start your day beautiful words
I can find no better way to start the day than to sing this hymn, thank you Lord and thank you for sharing ,may He bless your day.
My favourite hymn and prayer, which is so needed in these troubled times. God bless all mankind, Amen.
Timely more then ever..
This hymn makes me sober. It draws me closer to the Lord. The word of God is always alive and active. It rebukes, convinces, convicts and converts. It also refreshes and empowers.
My favourite hymn from school, love the words and the peace I feel when singing it.
What lessons to learn from these words in these days..Praying those who do not yet know Jesus hear His quiet voice calling them home.
What a hymn! Kept playing in my head so I just had to hear it sung. Great reminder that God's voice is not always a loud roar. Let's all listen out for the "still small voice of calm."
A Blessed day to All 🙏❤
This beautiful hymn takes me back more than 60 years as it was my school hymn i have never forgot it and always sing along whenever i hear it.
Dear Jesus Christ, thank you for inspiring our planet Earth with good humans. Thank you God...thank you dear humans...Thank you Sister Maureen of JRS, Kakuma Refugee Camp..good human beings always inspire.
We use to sing this at high School assembly many years ago ,for me it is a prayer that draws nearer to the Lord.
These are the words the world should be offering up to The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob right now! 6.4.2020.
This was at my grandmas funeral about a month ago, it's such a lovely hymn. It came up in the church service last night and made my grandpa and I very emotional. Still, it's so beautiful I can't help but want to listen to it all the time!
To God be the glory. Amen.
Lovely hymn. Although I came here after watching a clip from The Crown.
Anyone here after that last episode of the grand tour ?
Yup!
made me emotional for the 1st time in quite a while
Isaac Clarkson Yep! The first time I cried for a movie or tv show
Yeah,very emotional and what a beautiful hymn.
It is indeed a beautiful song. Long live Ford
This song is the most pure poem about the fate of mankind.
Memories of my Mother every time I hear this beautiful hymn.❤
Beautiful words. I never really paid attention to them before, but they are fitting for this age of constant distractions and entertainment. If we keep our lives quiet and simple, God can speak to and comfort us with a still, small voice. All the noise that surrounds us (physically, mentally, digitally, emotionally, spiritually) is just the earthquake, wind, and fire Elijah heard - God is not in them. We have to drink the "still dews of quietness" to hear him.
Coming from a musician, this is hard to do ;-)
Amen Mo Shaw.
Mo Shaw i
Yes 👌💜
It's really personal but this hymn always comes into my thoughts when ive made wrong choices in my life.
Reminds of dear memories of our dear mum Gilllan may prior
Fond school memories.
In these troubled times we should cultivate the habit of setting our minds on things above👍🏻.These beautiful hymns teach us that GOD is All In All🙏🏽&should be trusted through the Good, Bad& Ugly times😇
I absolutely adore this song the gorgeous words are just beautiful and powerful and has a very strong message, the gorgeous melody, the congregation, the ladies and male chorus with their wonderful voices bringing a sense of calm where there is darkness to some parts of the world, bravo, a song to reflect and praise God for the wondrous ways he performs in life, in the end it is the Gracious calling of the Lord, he calls us to our final home and we rise up and continue to follow him with eternal life.
My favorite hymn .It really does calm me & makes me feel at one with the Lord . 💜
I have been reminded today that the things of the Spirit are life.
I absolutely love this hymn.
margaret cargill me too
Don't blame you guys at all
“And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.”
Exodus 33:14 (KJV)
FATHER...HOW GREAT THOU ART....
DEAR JESUS LORD OF ALL CREATION!
LORD OF LOVE...🕊🌹♥️🎇🌈
Did anyone else cry along with Jeremy at the end? I couldn’t help it.
It’s sad. Rip the Mondeo.
Dear Ford and father of mankind
This hymn always resonates with me when I feel like I have made wrong choices in my life . A beautiful hymn . I was in junior senior _ chamber choir . It's very poignant although soothing and calming .
This is my favourite hymn of all and provides a calming, beautiful presence during the waves of joy and happiness and is uplifting during the sad times in life.
You and me both Nigel! God Bless.
I'm a Muslim and I really enjoy this. Come from Atonement movie
Same here🤜🤛..
It is a prayer that everybody that believes in God can relate..
Great melody and profound lyrics..
May God forgive our foolishness !🙇♀️🤲
We have the same God
Welcome.
Please repent and believe in Jesus Christ. He is the only way to be reconciled to God the Father, the creator of the heaven and the earth. Please read a Bible and read the truth. The truth will set you free! There is a lot of false so called religion out there but if you repent and believe you will be taught and have sweet fellowship with the Creator Himself!
I can't believe this hymn was released in 1986 sounds like a hymn from the 1800's. God bless those who are still alive who participated in the writing of this powerful hymn 🙏🏾
It was written in 1872, by John Greenleaf Whittier
Very beautiful and great hymn. Atonement brought me here. That scene of Dunkirk from Atonement did touch my heart more than the Dunkirk movie...
Thank You so much for uploading such a GREAT hymn. Prayers for peace.
Many of these Hymns, like this one, were written by patriarchs of a great nation . They have stood the test of time, and are still sung today. My encouragement is that these songs of praise written by divinely inspired composers, by those drawn close to Father God have not faded away.They still remain with us. When the breath of our lungs throw out these songs of praise we should be ever thankful that the Lord God has allowed us, to be, right from conception,
Love this hymn!
Deb Staton me too
yep
Takes me back to my school days, when I attended Heolddu comprehensive school in Bargoed, a former mining town in the South Wales valleys in the Caerphilly county borough.
Andrew Dexter
I drive the C18 bus through there :)
I have always loved this hymn up till now and still do but the minister in charge of one my local Baptist churches explained that he picked this song as we studied Elijah and thought this would have been a great song for him to sing
An overwhelmingly emotional hymn known sine the '50's thence particularly as a choir boy. I sang this besides the Sea of Galilee in 1997.
One of my ALL TIME FAVOURITE hymns/prayers/songs Singing is a way of prayer
Drop thy still dews of quietness,
Till all our strivings cease;
Take from our souls the strain and stress,
And let our ordered lives confess
The beauty of thy peace.
Breathe through the heats of our desire
Thy coolness and thy balm;
Let sense be dumb, let flesh retire;
Speak through the earthquake, wind, and fire,
O still small voice of calm!
My favourite hymn of all.
I learnt this song in my primary school days at St. Peter's Anglican School Nigeria in the 1960. It has remained with me since then. I am a Pentecostal believer & this song has done great uplifting in my daily walk with God.Thank you guys for bring it back to me.
Park next to me grand tour fans
I’m here with ya brother
Just rewatched that episode and was as gutted as the first time I saw it. Loved the homage to Ford, loved Jeremy's emotion, and now I love this hymn. God works in mysterious ways, as they say...
Lol.
The words are so touching.
This was the first hymn that i learned at school what a lovely tune
Love this hymn.
ANOTHER GREAT HYMN FROM THE ANGLICANS SUNG VERY NICELY .THE ENGLISH HYMN COMPOSERS ARE FANTASTIC AREN`T THEY GREAT LISTENING.
I am sorry Friend John to contradict you, but these words were written by an American Quaker J. G. Whittier who also wrote the hymn 'O Brother Man Fold to Thy Heart Thy Brother'. The hymn is full of allusion to the Quaker practice of silent waiting upon the divine presence. Those who have experienced the profound 'silence of eternity' in the 'covered meeting' will intimately know that 'deep hush subduing all our words and works', which arises from communion with the 'still small voice' of the inward Light of Christ. The hymn may well resonate with Christians but it is a Quaker's creation.
Praise be to our lord and saviour Jesus Christ.
This hymn always glad dens my heart, whenever I listen to it.
My morning devotion mentioned this hymn. I had never heard it. I had to look it up. Thankful to find it sung so beautifully here on RUclips. Beautiful words of comfort and peace.
'Speak through the earthquake, wind and fire .O Still small voice of calm' A wonderful message , if we are only ready to hear it . Keep the Faith. R
Gospel songs that brings peace.Well sung
God bless you all.
love this hymn it reminds me of a good creator we have in hevan and earth
O mine o mine, woke up now with the song in my heart, searched 4 it & found it here.
Thanks
Loved singing this as a choir member, solo on O Sabbath rest bu Galillee. When it came to a hymn for our wedding, this jumped back into my brain, so fitting. My wife to be did not know it, but loved the melody and the serene words. She had her choice too, but the older people in the congregation, lots of them, was not married until my mid thirties, were familiar with this and loved it. Once again it has become special to me.
I have now found out why its best to stay alive... after my deepest dark days of a few years ago, I have found someone very very special . She has listened to my problems , talked me through some really bad times...NEVER judged me... , Even cried down the phone to me and said "goodbye" as I was planning to end my life... she really has been my saviour .. I love her to bits... I still listen to this hyme as it helped me ( and still does ).. .I was "shipahoy 1000". So a big thankyou for all the kind messages you lot out there sent me ...
My favourite hymn from my schooldays some 60 years ago, Thanks.
PRAISE AND THANKS TO GOD.
THIS SONG VERY AWESOME AND AMAZING 👃SUCH ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL SONG..HALLELUJAH GOD ALMIGHTY AND JESUS CHRIST THE SAVIOUR OF MANKIND. HALLELUJAH HOSANA AMEN.
My very favourite hymn. Remember playing it in the school cadet brass band over 60 years ago.
I had it played at my dear mother’s funeral 8 years ago.
It's great to know that so many people see the value, comfort and advice to be gained from listening to this hymn. It has been a favourite of mine since high school and I heard it on an early morning program today. I highly recommend it as a daily request for God's guidance and so much needed forgiveness 🙏🙏😎
*... that emoji should have been 🙌
How great to hear that James's girlfriend and wife-to-be sang this hymn while walking up the garden path.
*The gracious calling of the Lord ... Rise up and follow Thee.*
I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. I play the piano and organ. Today (July 11), I played this for Sunday School assembly. However, it was to the tune, REST, composed by Frederick C. Maker, 1844-1927.
Beautiful! One of my all time favourites. Known it since a child..Good old Anglican/ Episcopal hymns! 👍🙏
Beautiful...made my cry!!!
If you feel sad, lonely, and desperate listen to this beautiful hymn, enjoy the tune and take heart from the words.....! God Bless
Ann Ayo .
I was rock bottom 8 years ago, ready to end it all, and this hymn really did help me through the dark times..
Ann Ayo god bless
I am not religious, or maybe I am because I adore this hymn - I remember me and my best friend back in about 1992 going for a cycle and weirdly ending up singing this - crazy, but true - good memories Jaq x
Lmfao.
I love this song I listen it sometimes
The most sublime words
:)
I've never heard basketball players sing like this before. A real eye-opener. Thank you
please lord forgive the world for its sins man dose not what is doing to world please show man what to to the world it does not belong to him.WE only passing through please remind him of this amen
"Dear Lord and Father of Mankind" is a hymn with words taken from a longer poem, The Brewing of Soma by American Quaker poet - John Greenleaf Whittier. The poem describes drug taking as a way of getting closer to God but ends with these words stating that closeness to God can only be achieved by quietness.
very interesting :)
HerbyPumpkin
Yes. An utterly brilliant bit of cinema.
Search for 'Atonement - Dunkirk Scene (Tracking Shot) '
Just listening to this hymn helps get everything in prospective some how.
' Still small voice of God'. Go within, find God with you and within you. Fabulous melody and sincerity of lyrics.
It's so beautiful 😢😢😢🙏🙏
Indeed;.
How apt for these times Godspeaking through earthquake, wind and fire!
This is my favourite song i enjoy singing it during my devotion especially during this lenten season . A very powerful song for me.last week,s prayer meeting was reflected on this hymn. Rose simms
Just wanted to thank you and let you know that we are very much enjoying including your excellent videos in the worship sessions at the new English-speaking church that we have started in Boquete, here in the west of Panama, Central America.
Thank you for sharing, and may God bless you in your ministry.
I still listen to this hyme, and it dose help me.. Having a bit of a downer this week. Things that have happened have hurt me a lot. And I can't do anything about it.. I have now a very good and understanding girlfriend, that has kept me alive. .. So a big thank you to her...
But I don't like having these " bad" suicide thoughts in my head ..
Sorry you lot out there . But it helps me to write it down.
Sharing does enable caring. I hope you are rising above the trials of life. Jesus loves you.
THANK YOU for posting and sharing with the world.
BRAVO
Praise to HIM always.
Pax+
I love Newcastle and amazing voices!
