THANK YOU, thank you! At my Episcopal church in DC, My church choir mates sang this every Palm Sunday with the adult choir. My most favorite hymn EVER. This is simply breathtaking.!!! Thank you so much for taking me back to those days. ❤ 🙏
I was in my church choir as a teen and adult, we sang this every Palm Sunday. I miss singing it. So glad I found it, I sang along. It brought back good memories and tears to my eyes.
Sang this in our Methodist Church at age 14 as a solo. My dad, music, teacher, help me with the breathing and the correct way of singing this song. Years ago I found this arrangement and now that I’m 70 years old and my father has since passed., and brought tears to my eyes. Tears of longing to see my dad again and tears of joy, as I was reunited with this song.
@@briankreis7447 I was raised in the United Methodist church also. That's a great thing to sing a solo, especially these old hymns. The church has since closed. But, like you I have fond memories of everyone there. My parents and family who went there are gone as well, I'm 66. Next week I'll sing the Old Easter Anthem. Best wishes for a Blessed Easter.
Bravo! The whole world should first read this text and then have a guided study of it. Then the whole world should not only hear, but also see this exact performance. Come quickly, Lord Jesus!
Wow! This brings back fond memories of my childhood. The adult and children's choirs sang this every Palm Sunday. Even as a child, I was moved by this song.
That's a lovely idea. We sang this at a cousin's funeral a few years ago. I didn't know before then that it was her favorite hymn. Now I think of her whenever I hear it.
It is Palm Sunday in 2022 as I write this. Our pastor told us that Christ's entry into Jerusalem on a donkey was a subversive act against the Roman occupiers, who allowed people in those lands to worship as they wished, but felt Passover was a dangerous holiday for their rule.
It is in C major!! You are correct. The person who posted this couldn’t find a score of it in C major so did the best he could. He found a score in a lower key. Then posted it. Simple as that.
The score shown is not the score performed. The SATB score could not be shown with the accompaniment. Therefore, we see the melody and the accompaniment offered.
This is a perfect tempo for the space , and it is andante maestoso!!! Check your metronome!!!! Let me hear your tempo as a comparison, then we have something to debate! Also, if your choir has a comparable rendition. This choir at HC had a treble sound basically being 5th- 8th grade kids!!! Built over time and tradition! If you can duplicate that , then we have a starting point to even start a debate! Otherwise, you are full of beans!!!!!
@@74bshsBless you!! For having sound musical ears!!!! You know when something sounds good! The great jazz musician, Duke Ellington, once stated, “ if it sounds good , it is good”. That solid statement holds true in all genres of music!!!!!!
You also need to correct your English grammar. Too is the appropriate word you needed when referring to tempo! Too fast or too slow. However, this tempo was fine for the space it was performed in. Enough said!

Bless you! It is a really fine piece of music that can touch your heart in ways only God can truly explain.

This is such a beautiful hymn that is speaking to the soul and most uplifting.
@@briankreis7447Bless you ! I am glad I sang this one! It is such an inspiring piece of music!
I sincerely hope it brings you some peace and comfort!

For me also! Our "Cherub" Choir sang this many Palm Sundays at First Baptist Redlands CA in the '50's.
Bless you always! Such was the tradition I was carrying on at HC. !!!!
Played as Weddimg March in my wedding 62 years ago! This is first time to hear it played again! Beautiful!
Never thought to use this for a wedding, Excellent choice.

Palm Sunday tradition at St. Mark’s United Methodist in Baltimore, MD. Accompanied by a Moller pipe organ ❤️
Bob V’s organ playing here is excellent! Especially, the big finish after the final verse!
Beautiful! Thank you
I love this.

Amazing !
Is this from Holy Childhood in St. Paul, Minnesota?
Yes!
Jean Baptiste - Faure was a baritone! Quite noted in his day! Not a tenor. He did sing many operatic roles. He also composed some really fine music!
I fixed it in the description.
@@schmitzd04 thanks, Faure will be honored accurately .
Wow!!! The key sounding on this recording is Db Major. Do you have perhaps a link that I might find the score you have in Ab major! Thanks!
I came here to say that LOL!
Actually the recording is in c major. Regardless, it definitely doesn't match the music on screen.
@@justinkisch I totally agree Justin!!!

Greetings - I love the channel. Is there anyway we can get permission to use your videos to post to our church page?
I do not own copyright on these, but as long as it's for educational purposes, I would say go ahead.
@@schmitzd04 Understood. Thank you.
The key he is singing in is not the score that is showing.
The score shown is not the score performed. The SATB score could not be shown with the accompaniment. Therefore, we see the melody and the accompaniment offered.
@@jackbriggs1048could you please point me to the arrangement we hear? I’d like to buy this for my choir to perform.

The choir boys slowed down enough at the part of the chorus where it says “largo.”
