This is one of the greatest hymns of all time, not just for Easter or funerals. Thank you for your time and talent in producing this and all the wonderful music you share here on YT!!!
Thanks RobCharles for these beautiful and wonderful hymns. - Glory be to Yaveh, GOD of Israel! Praise him with stringed instruments and organs. Psalm 150:4
Rob this hymn is absolutely beautiful and the awsome way that you play it really brings to life the true meaning of this hymn. Thank you again for allowing your beautiful playing to be used of The Lord to bless us the way he does.
Beautiful Rob. This was one of my mother's favorite hymns and is also mine as well. You have such a beautiful talent, beautiful gift that you share with us.
I always associate this wonderful hymn with services for my grandfather and seeing my father cry but it is a joy and blessing not a sorrow for the truth it shares
Such a beautiful hymn..I remember standing in the pew with my nan in the one behind me singing so sweetly to this hymn at my cousins funeral..This hymn will always remind me of her and when my Nan leaves this earth, this is one hymn I would love to be sung on her final day..Marvelous rendition of this hymn on the organ, loved every minute of it whole heartedly..Thanks for sharing :)
well as a prayer warrior or a choir student but i know one thing i love this hymn very much because this hymn is too close to my heart when i first excepted Jesus as my personal saviour then through thi hymn Jesus touched me
Wonderful play of this American Hymn. A very moving evangelical type adopted by many Churches everywhere. Thanks for playing this very special Hymn to so many of various faiths of Christianity. Keep up the good work, the organ belongs in the Church! Thank you, Wayne Vaughan of Alaska
That's really beautiful, Rob. "The Old Rugged Cross" is an all-time favourite of so many. I've just discovered this video, A lad I knew many years told me of a lass from the Salvation Army who sang it in some of Aberdeen's pubs and would have moved grown men to tears. Thanks Rob. God bless you, lad. Charlie, Aberdeen.
Brilliant performance of this classic! I didn't know it was in use outside the US. Here it's a standard in lots of churches regardless of denomination.
rob charles jus to say never heard such a gorgeous sound from u playing on organ music l cherish old wooden cross and amazing grace loved every sec so completely different look 4ward to hearing more beautiful sounds from u on organ in church takes rthym accordition getting notes right jus watching u on organ says it 1 thing a organ can play thank u world wide rob charles from dallas bull face book on u tube
Rob, this really moved me. Cried listening to it. Brought back so many memories of funerals. I wished that the organists had of been half as good as you are!
Wow. I'm impressed. Thansk for sharing your talent. Organ seems like an extreme challenging instrument for me to learn, but I see you can handle it. I have such a hard time making my hand go ay different rhythms.
Wonderfully done Rob.My dad graduated from the Chicago Conservatory Of Music in 1911,moved to northwest Iowa where he was church organist and gave concerts a neighboring churches.He moved to Grand Rapids,Michigan in 1925 where he was church organist until his death in 1946. There is a small museum in Reed City Michigan that has the original upright piano with a living room setting that Rev.George Bennard used to compose the OLD RUGGED CROSS.
rob charles absolute pleasure world wide skill u sure have on organ there organ 1 powerful tech device from dallas bull on face book u have world wide compliments so u should world wide deserved young man
Rob, I have heard this posting many times, and all of the many other beautiful hymns from this organ, and this is the first time I noticed the page holders on the music rack, what a wonderfully clever idea, did it come on the organ standard or was it installed later as some ones bright idea ? I get tired of flopping pages when I am playing a long score. God Bless. Kevin
A favorite hymn of my Mom who passed away in April 2008.
Thank you! Sorry to hear of your loss!
Whenever I feel down, I tune in to the beautiful hymns performed by the talented Rob Charles . Bruce
Thanks Bruce.
No matter how you "slice it", it still boils down to the same beautiful hymn and that old rugged cross.
This is one of the greatest hymns of all time, not just for Easter or funerals. Thank you for your time and talent in producing this and all the wonderful music you share here on YT!!!
Praise HIS HOLY NAME...saved my sorry arse for sure.
:-)
AMEN!!!
There is a great message in every hymn, not just notes to hammered out. Rehearsing hymn playing is as mandatory as the musical offerings!
Very good, Rob.
We had this at my Dad's funeral (1973) and my Mom's funeral (1989) - in 1973 it wasn't (as it is now) one of the core funeral hymns.
Thank you for playing such beautiful music what a gift to have! This song brings back wonderful memories for me of loved ones now gone ....
Thank you Diana that means allot stay tuned for further videos!
A favorite of mine over the years. I am playing this wonderful hymn this Sunday.
Thanks RobCharles for these beautiful and wonderful hymns. - Glory be to Yaveh, GOD of Israel!
