I feel obligated to thank you for using your gifts in God's service. Last month my Dad passed from cancer and I was to give the eulogy. Grief stricken I began to write. I also came across this song. So, over the next 3 days whenever writing, I listened to your song. The words spoke to me; what started out as grief ended in joy, largely in part to your beautiful rendition of a very meaningful song. You made a difference for me, and, I humbly thank you. I still listen when the days are tough.
I woke up this morning, singing this song. I am deaf with cochlear implants (had full hearing until I was 25), and this is the one of the few versions that sound crystal clear for me on RUclips. Thank you!
Chris thank you so much. You have help me more than you can imagine! And our choir . Please keep it up, You are one of the Music Angles that God knew we needed,
Chris, there aren't enough words to express how very much I appreciate your music and singing. I play organ and piano in our church but haven't since this covid arrived. In the meantime, I am learning more and you have helped beyond words. Forever grateful! Tim
Thank you for posting. From one music minister to another, I always seek out your recordings first when planning the liturgy. I find many of the "official" recordings to be hokey or too grandiose... But Your arrangements are always beautiful and prayerful. Thank you.
Well thank you! yes that's exactly whey I record them the way I do, just stripped down to the basics so that chord progressions and melody can be heard clearly. God Bless :-)
Just Beautiful! I thank you tremendously for this service and gift you share with us, Chris. Your music calms me and gives me confidence to sing amongst many. May God abundantly bless you.
Really love your voice!! I've been using your videos to practice the songs I'll sing for Mass! Most of them I don't know but I learn them quickly with the help of your recordings! You've been a great help! Keep it up and God bless you and your family always!
I have commented before, and all I can say is WELL DONE!! This song is so amazing and you sang it flawlessly. I really enjoy listening to you sing. You really have been blessed with agift.
Thanks, Chris, for your faithful ministry in song. Your work is a great assistance to me in learning music for the Mass. Merry Christmas, and blessings to you in the new year. Happy 2023.
Thank you Chris, I love your voice,you express every word nicely, I tried to follow your style in guitar & style of singing we use your songs in the mass always...God bless, you & your family....
Beautiful song, lyrics (only you must put them up to follow) however he has such a clear diction that I can understand every word although English is my second language. Beautiful voice as well. Bravo! June 2017.
Thanks so much Elsa. I don't put up the lyrics because if people want to use the song, I encourage them to go directly to OCP and purchase what they need there. I'm actually in "negotiations" right now with OCP to be allowed to continue putting up these videos
Happy New Year 2019!. Grateful for you sharing us your gifts with so many. You make it easy for us to get the tune of a song... For all your time and dedication, Thank You.
Thanks, Steve in Tennessee! My daughter lives in Smyrna outside of Nashville. I’ve always wanted to be able to do a concert somewhere near her so she could see me do my thing God bless
I'd like to do more in the future...my wife and daughter are good singers, and I have some other folks around here I could work with. But my main focus has been recording these church songs so that other people could practice/learn along with them. Thanks for listening!
If you have specific requests of a song you'd like me to do, please feel free to request. I just recorded a requested song this morning....will be going up later today!
My 11 yr old daughter is a cantor at our church she will be singing this hymn Saturday.
Thank you you are awesome! we listen to you everyday!
That’s wonderful! Please congratulate her for starting her music ministry career at such an early age. I began in 4h grade myself :)
Wow 4 grade! that’s amazing! Thank you 🙏 God bless ❤️
