Proud to hear the german song (Te Deum Laudamus) Grosser Gott wir loben Dich -Herr, wir preisen Deine Staerke. It' s the original (by Ignaz Franz 1771). If you want to feel the power of the song search for koelner dom (Cathedral of Cologne) and Grosser Gott wir loben dich... (for example:Allerheiligen im Koelner Dom starts at 4.35) I as a German have absolute respect for all the Kennedys (John Fitzgerald, Robert, Edward (Ted), Rose and Joseph).
@RadarGuidedVermin You're free to say such things, and I and any other person who actually took the time to know anything about the late Senator am free to think less of you for it.
I thought the exact same thing as you. Here I'm trying to listen to the organ particularly during the interlude after the last stanza, and these idiots are talking all over the music. I was trying to hear what the organist was doing with the improvisation as well as with the registration. Thanks a lot ABC (A Bunch of Chumps) News....
can't they let us enjoy the music of Holy God We Praise Thy Name as opposed to running their mouths?? I'm Lutheran and find this irreverent on the part of the announcer
@RadarGuidedVermin No because the subject "I" was singular, as "and any other person..." was an aside. Also, the subject is, you know, the subject of the sentence, the person or thing performing the action, the object is the recipient of said action. In this case the indirect object would be "you", falling into the case known in synthetic languages (like the Romance tongues) as accusative. Glad I could clear that up for you. Have a good one, bro.
The tempo is being done in nearly cut time - way too fast! In my years of experiences as church organist, I have found that in large buildings, singing not done in "English Tradition" results in echoing that produces a muddling of sounds. You can barely hear that muddling in this song. Also, there are only three verses that are normally used.
Losing Senator Kennedy was like losing a grandfather. He did so much for the poorest and least fortunate among us in Massachusetts and all of America, despite being born into privilege few could imagine. I can't think of anything more Christ-like, as Jesus gave up the glories of Heaven to reach out to lowly, undeserving sinners like you and me. I bet he's clinking pints of Guinness with the apostles now as we speak.
Two things: People who dwell on the transgressions and mistakes of others must have an extremely limited view of the Mercy of God. Also, when will the TV talking heads learn to stop talking over the beautiful music and hymns of televised weddings, funerals, etc.?
I totally I agree! God is all merciful and forgives his followers. How wonderful for believers! If only us humans could show the same mercy to our fellow Christian brothers and sisters!
Sue Anne Conley God can't for give someone who does not repent. he supported the murder of 53,000,000 babies--God is loving true, but God is also holy and just.
It must be wonderful to be such a privileged human who knows the mind and mercy of God! I guess you figure that bit about "he who is without sin cast the first stone" doesn't apply to you, or that God's mercy is limited. I also believe you haven't read or if you did, you don't comprehend Luke 15:7 "I tell you, in just the same way there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous people who have no need of repentance." Maybe it's time to brush up on God's message??
One minor quibble: in the context of the liturgy, it was inappropriate for the celebrant to refer to Kennedy as "Senator Kennedy." Earthly titles are mere affectations, and have no place in a sacred liturgy; instead, he should have been referenced simply as "Ted Kennedy."
Catholics are, in general, such bad singers. Give me a good Episcopalian or Lutheran congregation belting out hymns. Maybe cause so few songs in most masses? Rare to have organist?
Good point. Even at Mass on Christmas Eve in the cathedral, when all the carols are familiar, the congregational singing is quite poor. I blame it on lack of choral singing in schools these days.
@7624825 If I was Pope I'd fast track him to canonization. He was one of the last people in Washington who actually gave a damn about those who work the hardest and have the least to show for it. He made mistakes, and at any point he could've given up, ducked out of public life and lived quite well. But he didn't, he endured ridicule by the press because he so sincerely wanted to help people, because that's what Jesus commanded us to do in the Sheep and Goats discourse, and elsewhere.
not real sure the Pope would like teddys commitment to saving lives....if you are in the womb or in the lake...he didnt really have the time or concern to help. this guy was a complete loser and cheater
i have a muslim friend and she sings this hymn as holy allah we praise thy name. isn't that nice? and her fave alltime hymn is Amazing grace! she even attempted a muslim version of our oldfashisoned Cathechism! well? do you still believe that only catholics can enter heaven? i have learned a few spiritual lessons from her by her examples.
Mass murderer? Maybe not, but what did he say to all those innocent babies who he was in part responsible for aborting, have to say to him as he stepped into eternity.
And he was a strong advocate until the end for abortion "rights" yet is buried with full Requiem in the pro life Roman Catholic Church . I guess being a rich Kennedy gives him a pass to heaven.
Only in America does a funeral get commentators as if it were a football match. The final straw was when they were giggling at the end, totally oblivious to the solemnity of the occasion and devoid of any respect for the fact that a man was dead. Everything is sport\comedy\entertainment in the United States. Even death.
They did the same at JFK's funeral. No harm, no foul. Get a life.Catholics do not have a problem with it. It's part of real life and not contrived self absorbed piety.
I was always taught that murder is a MORTAL SIN. How many times did this man vote for "abortion rights"? Where was Mary Jo's "right to life"? He called himself a "good Catholic". He was sadly mistaken.
Hello Democrats. Quick question, do all the liberals who post hate on Reagans funeral video speak for you also? Just wonder because those who vote “D” seem as lockstep as anyone since the 1930’s and wonder how you feel about them representing you as a party.
+Thomas Haversack ... and said, "All right, but let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone!" ... "He who is without sin among you, let him be the first to throw a stone at her." aus dem heiligen Evangelium nach Johannes 8:7
For all his obvious faults, in later life, he and his wife faithfully attended church each Sunday -- in contexts where he never had to worry about press coverage. He upbraided his family members who skipped Mass. I was told this by the family chaplain.
That was JFK's favorite hymn.

Beautiful hymn, nicely registered Hutchings/LaHaise organ, but hastily rushed - yes, way too fast!

@RadarGuidedVermin
Fascinating, please tell us more.
Rest In Peace.
Judge not,as you shall also be judged'
indeed!
Thanks.
Ted is now in heaven with his favorite brothers President John F Kennedy and Attorney General Robert F Kennedy ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
He’s in hell
With his brother Joe and Sister Kathleen Kick ànd Rosemary as well
I don’t believe for a minute that he went to heaven.
can't hold us

On what, trolling funerals? Where you learn exactly, Fred Phelps?

thought the same thing. I wanted to scream STFU!
How is the pastor

He’s in hell he killed Mary Jo and was in pro abortion
I doubt it.
Three of the Kennedy sons died of brain injury or a tumor
May he rest in heavenly peace.
Rest. In peace ted god love you and I love u and my family love all of u all lord be with u Mrs ted Kennedy

a disrespectful tempo to the hymn. why rush so darn fast?
No mention of Chappaquiddick?
john price You're so ignorant pretty sad Mr. Price, pretty sad!
I agree with you John. He let e woman die to try & save his life from complete disgrace. No sympathy for this man. NONE!!
Of course not. Too disgraceful
I just realised how odd, for a Brit viewing this, to see them wheel the coffin in. Not something we do here
We dont as christians. But it was odd how they were rushing to get the funeral over with.
Kara Kennedy would die soon after this...😢

This guy's voice sounds a little like James Cromwell.
@19lfm12 wait---did i say something bad about teddy?? no way! he was my hero!
@7624825

Did he help the weakest?
Tne unborn?
not real sure the Pope would like teddys commitment to saving lives....if you are in the womb or in the lake...he didnt really have the time or concern to help. this guy was a complete loser and cheater
He worked very hard to bring Peace to The 6 Countries of Northern Ireland
i have a muslim friend and she sings this hymn as holy allah we praise thy name.
isn't that nice? and her fave alltime hymn is Amazing grace!
she even attempted a muslim version of our oldfashisoned Cathechism!
well? do you still believe that only catholics can enter heaven? i have learned a few spiritual lessons from her by her examples.
Interesting
Singing and music are both haram in Izlam.
is it true that teddy kennedy was princess grace's driving instructor?

Sen Kennedy's Funeral : Processional Hymn

Sorry that I did, thought, wish and said any bad towards you guys in anyway

EL MEJOR PRESIDENTE SERÁ JOE .LO DECRETO ASÍ SEA.
I love the way EVERYONE and the media idolized Ted Kennedy, the man who left a drowning woman and then tried to cover it up. He's a hero.
Was Ted Kennedy a bad person?
I heard the Kennedy's were great people.
So true
Only in America does a funeral get commentators as if it were a football match. The final straw was when they were giggling at the end, totally oblivious to the solemnity of the occasion and devoid of any respect for the fact that a man was dead. Everything is sport\comedy\entertainment in the United States. Even death.
jlandles it was ted kennedy...a scummy lib. his politics spit in the face of God.
They did the same at JFK's funeral. No harm, no foul. Get a life.Catholics do not have a problem with it. It's part of real life and not contrived self absorbed piety.
Alot of coloured ties for a funeral!!!
never heard of any restriction to the contrary. did you make that up?
He also got away with manslaughter and DUI causing a death . Should have done time . Were's the mercy for Mary Jo ?
You or I would have done time. He was a special snowflake.
i wonder what Mary jo asked him
I was always taught that murder is a MORTAL SIN. How many times did this man vote for "abortion rights"? Where was Mary Jo's "right to life"?
He called himself a "good Catholic". He was sadly mistaken.
and yet he supported abortion for political gain and could conveniently put his faith on hold ! HYPOCRITE !
Is life black-and-white? Are there not nuances in life. You say that he "he supported abortion for political gain"
Tell me where?
True
Hello Democrats. Quick question, do all the liberals who post hate on Reagans funeral video speak for you also? Just wonder because those who vote “D” seem as lockstep as anyone since the 1930’s and wonder how you feel about them representing you as a party.
This person was a bad catholic but he will answer for his sins
+Thomas Haversack ... and said, "All right, but let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone!" ... "He who is without sin among you, let him be the first to throw a stone at her."
aus dem heiligen Evangelium nach Johannes 8:7
+Thomas Haverstock So, are you a good Catholic? Are you a perfect person? Tell us what his sins were. Are you sinless.
Nobody is perfect but to advocate for abortion only for political gain after defending Life for decades is reprehensible !
For all his obvious faults, in later life, he and his wife faithfully attended church each Sunday -- in contexts where he never had to worry about press coverage. He upbraided his family members who skipped Mass. I was told this by the family chaplain.
...and so will you
