I’m struggling with my mental health right now to the point where scripture study has become something painful and fearful that I’ve avoided doing all day. I was scrolling on RUclips and accidentally clicked this video. I like to start scripture study by listening to a hymn, and I love this song so much. I know this is not a coincidence. Time to read whatever verses I can.
I struggle with anxiety... I know that Heavenly Father loves you and He is there for you ❤ I know this video and comment are pretty old but I just wanted to share my testimony of that in some way if it could maybe help somebody
Oh l do hope you are feeling more stronger, these days! Every good step, you take is a step, were you get closer to our Savior Jesus Christ. Little by little, line upon line! 👍 Happy New Year, and God bless you! 🤗
@@leonardmarcel9084 I respectfully disagree. One of the greatest truths I've had the joy of learning is that we will all have the opportunity to return home with our brothers and sisters to live with our Father in Heaven for eternity. I hope all is well with you and yours in this exceptionally difficult time!
I sang this in my dad’s ear as he passed away. We had a beautiful violinist play it at his funeral. It’s been 3 years and I haven’t been able to listen to it. When it popped up as the first thing on my RUclips feed I knew it was from my dad so I felt brave enough to listen. It’s so heart wrenching but I’m glad it was sent to me. I love you dad 🌟🤍🌟
If you haven’t seen it, search this song and listen to the one they do in the Tabernacle with the orchestra. It’s even more moving than this one, to me.
I know your post is several years old, but I just ran across it. I, also, have a daughter named Joey. I was recently very close to death. Too close. Joey played a crucial part in why I survived, and my recovery since. I can think of no sweeter passing then what you described for your father. Thank you for sharing that moment with us.
Everytime this hymn is sung, I can feel the Holy Ghost as if someone poured a pitcher of hot water from the crown of my head and it just trickles down to my toes. Seeing that choir members emotions pouring out greatly added to that Spirit! My all time favorite hymn.
I was lucky enough to be in the building when this was sung. I will NEVER forget the power of that moment and the way music and the spirit filled the room. Thank you for archiving these videos so I can relive moments like this.
It breaks my heart a little beat to see that man crying. He said they were tears of joy to be singing such a beautiful hymn in such a marvelous choir. I totally understand it, I cry of joy everytime i hear this
Some religions teach that when we go to heaven we will sing praises to God for the rest of eternity. We Mormons believe we don't have to wait until we get to heaven. What a powerful song and choir.
Jared V I grew up Methodist, and we also sing praises to our Lord. As beautiful as this is, can you imagine how amazing it will be when we all are in Heaven singing praises to Him?? I don’t think our human hearts and minds can comprehend the Greatness!🙏🏻💜
I don't know how you can watch this without tears streaming down your face and your testimony strengthened by this beautiful song. quit cutting onions, honey!!
This song can soften even the hardest of hearts there is power in music and this song is proof of that, those who dont feel the power of this song have clouded their minds and have fallen to satans temtations, but their day will come when they learn to live thy gospel and to live life as he did.
Come, Thou Fount of every blessing Tune my heart to sing Thy grace Streams of mercy, never ceasing Call for songs of loudest praise Teach me some melodious sonnet Sung by flaming tongues above Praise the mount, I'm fixed upon it Mount of Thy redeeming love Here I raise my Ebenezer Here there by Thy great help I've come And I hope, by Thy good pleasure Safely to arrive at home Jesus sought me when a stranger Wandering from the fold of God He, to rescue me from danger Interposed His precious blood Oh, that day when freed from sinning I shall see Thy lovely face Clothed then in the blood washed linen How I'll sing Thy wondrous grace Come, my Lord, no longer tarry Take my ransomed soul away Send Thine angels now to carry Me to realms of endless day Oh, to grace how great a debtor Daily I'm constrained to be Let that goodness like a fetter Bind my wandering heart to Thee Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it Prone to leave the God I love Here's my heart, oh, take and seal it Seal it for Thy courts above Here's my heart, oh, take and seal it Seal it for Thy courts above
I remember Dad enjoyed this song while laying on his death bed. He looked so peaceful and acknowledged that he could still hear.You also sang it on his grave site. What a heavenly melody.
My favorite song sung by the best choir!! I love everything about this song. You can literally feel the Spirit. Thank you to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. Very beautiful and very powerful!!
Prone to wander Lord I feel it, prone to leave the God I love Here's my heart, O take and seal it, seal it for thy courts above The gentleman in tears was so moving and touching...I love this hymn so much.
I told myself tonight that I would find this exact one by the choir. The gentleman crying while singing has been in my memory for four years and tonight I got to hear and see it again. This one is so moving! My heart yearns to be with them singing it. I am not a singer, but my heart sings it just as loud and true. He will come again!
Such a beautiful hymn and lyrics I can relate to. Jesus sought me when a stranger Wandering from the fold of God He to rescue me from danger Interposed His precious blood
This was sung so beautifully, and it made me bawl! Eve my five year-old daughter thought it was pretty and asked me to rewind it so she could hear it again. Thank you for providing us with such beautiful music that brings the Spirit.
How any of them manage to sing some of these hymns without breaking down I just don't know. I have trouble at church sometimes....this is such a gorgeous song.
If that doesn't convert you to the savior, I don't know what will. Absolutely gorgeous! I have a recording of this song on my phone but this is probably the best I've ever heard them sing it.
Tears flow, because one time or another, our hearts wandered, left the God we love :') but despite all of that. . . They are willing to take our hearts and seal it to Them.
y’all look at the 3 first sopranos at 5:22, you can see and tell how powerful those notes at the end and it’s like a piece of cake to them. Those are some super high notes
Some times music sounds like heaven. It carries me calling comforting me , the voices echoing a eternal rest to a place far off looking back and close by moving forward , cradling the earth beneath me soothing my soul , holding me , softly healing and reaching places that be so far away opens me up Quickening the long haul basking beauty all around comfort taking my troubles away renewing strength a miracle happens the church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints.
Belo hino, superiormente interpretado quer vocal quer instrumental. Não frequento esta Igreja, minha formação é católica embora tambem não vá com assiduidade aos cultos, mas respeito todas as formas sinceras de louvor a Deus. Muito belo.
I always rejoice when the organ comes in during the end of the first verse and the choir ladies have kept the pitch, because I've been there, done that with the Arizona Mormon Choir. Here, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir did the best job I've ever heard with this beautiful hymn. I was sobbing with emotion at the power of God's spirit as I heard it live (over TV). I wasn't alone. A couple of choir members I know amply demonstrated how they were affected at singing praises with this gorgeous arrangement. Well done. Well done!
Hello! I'm pleased to know you. A capella singing certainly has its terrors, but even more so when you know an accompanying instrument is going to join you at some point. Best wishes to you in singing with the So Cal Mormon Choir.
This beautiful hymn starts as soft and as the hymn goes on the build up to the last verse will have you in tears you feel how STRONG the spirit carries you as if this were you entering the Gates of Heaven.. To know the Church is True is for one to seek out for themselves in these trying times.. This Hymn is what everyone struggling through human battles must know they are not alone and can fight through all hardships in this life..
Anyone who has sung in a choir knows the terror of singing a capella (without accompaniment), knowing that the instruments will be coming back in, and if you have slipped off pitch it will be painfully obvious! Here the women start a capella, and when the organ comes in at :34 they are RIGHT ON. Then the men take the chord at 2:05 and start singing a capella in new key. The women join them, and when the organ comes back in at 3:04 the entire choir is still perfectly on pitch. So difficult to pull off! And how about Richard Elliott on the Conference Center organ!!!
1 Come, thou Fount of every blessing, tune my heart to sing thy grace; streams of mercy, never ceasing, call for songs of loudest praise. Teach me some melodious sonnet, sung by flaming tongues above. Praise the mount I'm fixed upon it mount of God's redeeming love. 2 Here I find my greatest treasure; hither by thy help I've come; and I hope, by thy good pleasure, safely to arrive at home. Jesus sought me when a stranger, wandering from the fold of God; he, to rescue me from danger, bought me with his precious blood. 3 Oh, to grace how great a debtor daily I'm constrained to be! Let thy goodness, like a fetter, bind my wandering heart to thee: prone to wander, Lord, I feel it, prone to leave the God I love; here's my heart, O take and seal it; seal it for thy courts above. The Psalter Hymnal, 1987
Humanity is capable of such awe inspiring beauty and shameful destruction. That nearly incomprehensible duality seems impossible absent the understanding of the elements at work in our hearts. While there is clearly a dark force at work in the natural man, the element of refinement which edifies and inspires creativity is the selflessness imprinted on us by the gospel of Jesus Christ. Want a solution to the world's problems? It is found in that gospel and the moderating, pacifying, love promoting, patient selflessness it donates to every human being that adopts and practices it. Though the conflict between the natural man and selflessness rages within me and I remain frustrated by my tendency to wander from the God I love, like the weeping singer in this video, I know truth when I see and hear it and am inspired to tears by it.
I can't stop watching this! So amazing, so powerful, and so spiritual! It's really hard not to feel this spirit with this song and you can tell that every member of the choir can feel it. ❤
Prone to wander, Lord I feel it Prone to leave the God I love Here's my heart, oh take and seal it Seal it for Thy courts above ☝ These words I hold on too My sweet Jesus😢
I have received personal revelation since a child of the truth that God leads His church through his Prophets in each dispensation of time. Worthy is the Lamb! This is the very sacred message of the Cross! GOOD NEWS! (Truth in a nutshell) Through the Power of the Atoning Grace of Jesus Christ, "ALL" people will be resurrected and saved from physical DEATH.The eternal glory we receive will depend on our faithfulness.Through the grace of God, all can be saved from their sins (see 2 Nephi 25:23; Helaman 5:10-11) as they repent and faithfully follow Jesus.
Come, Thou Fount of every blessing Tune my heart to sing Thy grace Streams of mercy, never ceasing Call for songs of loudest praise Teach me some melodious sonnet Sung by flaming tongues above Praise the mount, I'm fixed upon it Mount of Thy redeeming love
VERSE 1 Come, Thou Fount of every blessing Tune my heart to sing Thy grace Streams of mercy never ceasing Call for songs of loudest praise Teach me some melodious sonnet Sung by flaming tongues above Praise the name! I’m fixed upon it Name of Thy redeeming love VERSE 2 Hitherto Thy love has blessed me Thou hast brought me to this place And I know Thy hand will bring me Safely home by Thy good grace Jesus sought me when a stranger Wandering from the fold of God He, to rescue me from danger Interposed His precious blood VERSE 3 Oh to grace how great a debtor Daily I’m constrained to be Let Thy goodness, like a fetter Bind my wandering heart to Thee Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it Prone to leave the God I love Here’s my heart, oh take and seal it Seal it for Thy courts above VERSE 4 Oh that day when freed from sinning I shall see Thy lovely face Full arrayed in blood-washed linen How I’ll sing Thy sovereign grace Come, my Lord, no longer tarry Bring Thy promises to pass For I know Thy pow’r will keep me Till I’m home with Thee at last
this is what i needed, no matter what! could be in active or just lost, but i can't deny this spirit when i hear this and yes i'm crying and i didn't even notice :) thank you for sharing this

Every good step, you take is a step, were you get closer to our Savior Jesus Christ.
Little by little, line upon line!
👍
Happy New Year, and God bless you! 🤗
Wow! I'm Muslim, and I felt that hymn.
This is because at our core we are all serving one God.
Kibibi Siri same God, yours and ours.
@@PreciousKofi the thing is muslims have a different view of the same God that's why they're not going to heaven
@@leonardmarcel9084 I respectfully disagree. One of the greatest truths I've had the joy of learning is that we will all have the opportunity to return home with our brothers and sisters to live with our Father in Heaven for eternity.

Hey, crying guy, you're not alone. I can never get through "I Need Thee Every Hour" without tears rolling down my face.
He’s a cousin of mine.
The guy at 3:20 couldn't hold it. I would have cried too. Amazing, I love the Mormon Tabernacle Choir.
Me too
me too
well he was prone to wander, Lord he felt it.
Marvin Escoto I see 3 mean
The song is so touching. So majestic.
I am brazilian but this song is for the every world!!!
This is how Heaven must sound like...
Mily Alvarez but even better!! 💖💖
Cant imagine
We shall all know what heavenly voices shall sound like when we return to be with him.. With all family and ancestors..
Amen my friend. Amen
NOPE; it’s nice, but only a shadow of what is to come.
Everytime this hymn is sung, I can feel the Holy Ghost as if someone poured a pitcher of hot water from the crown of my head and it just trickles down to my toes. Seeing that choir members emotions pouring out greatly added to that Spirit! My all time favorite hymn.
Who else got chills at 1:21? Beautiful
As an organist those 16' strings get me too ;) it's my favorite part! The organ can really wrap it's 'arms' around you like that!
very very true!
Connor Larsen yes! I love the strings, favorite stops for me! They are so well done on this organ.
The music calls for 8' pedal stops only from the beginning and then commands to add the 16' stops at that very measure!
I was lucky enough to be in the building when this was sung. I will NEVER forget the power of that moment and the way music and the spirit filled the room. Thank you for archiving these videos so I can relive moments like this.
Hey, I was there as well.
That Organ part just vibrates thru your soul! It's incredible
It breaks my heart a little beat to see that man crying. He said they were tears of joy to be singing such a beautiful hymn in such a marvelous choir. I totally understand it, I cry of joy everytime i hear this
Honestly... I cried like a baby, I never thought they were going to sing this hymn on a GC! I felt the Spirit very close
I was there that morning!!!
A big shout out for the organist. He did a wonderful job!
Athena Delapeena Hi
Me too because my first time doing this song 13 yearinch from Walkvile MD chior , Frederick MD stack

This song always helps remind me of the important stuff.
My favorite part is when the men join in.
Feel so blessed this morning by listerning to this song. Thank you Mormon Tabernacle choir
One of the great all-time renditions.
I cannot watch this at work. I cry every time.
One of my favorite hymns.

Tune my heart to sing Thy grace
Streams of mercy, never ceasing
Call for songs of loudest praise
Teach me some melodious sonnet
Sung by flaming tongues above
Praise the mount, I'm fixed upon it
Mount of Thy redeeming love
Here I raise my Ebenezer
Here there by Thy great help I've come
And I hope, by Thy good pleasure
Safely to arrive at home
Jesus sought me when a stranger
Wandering from the fold of God
He, to rescue me from danger
Interposed His precious blood
Oh, that day when freed from sinning
I shall see Thy lovely face
Clothed then in the blood washed linen
How I'll sing Thy wondrous grace
Come, my Lord, no longer tarry
Take my ransomed soul away
Send Thine angels now to carry
Me to realms of endless day
Oh, to grace how great a debtor
Daily I'm constrained to be
Let that goodness like a fetter
Bind my wandering heart to Thee
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it
Prone to leave the God I love
Here's my heart, oh, take and seal it
Seal it for Thy courts above
Here's my heart, oh, take and seal it
Seal it for Thy courts above
Alexis Jim Clemente 🙏🏼 THANK YOU ‼️

#ViliKatoa the end of the song is my favorite part of the song
I love this hymn. I love this Church. O how I love my Lord.
I second that
Amen🙏
Idk why, but im reminded of how God is even watching over us when we are having a nightmare.
Simply one of the best hymns of all time, imho.
Prone to wander Lord I feel it, prone to leave the God I love
Here's my heart, O take and seal it, seal it for thy courts above
The gentleman in tears was so moving and touching...I love this hymn so much.
He is a cousin of mine.
as soon as Brother Belt was shown crying, I couldn't hold it back. Oh how I feel the spirit here. This is truly the sounds of heaven.
Do you know him?
Absolutely me too, I always thought it would be neat to meet him the spirit is ever binding unifying force it's wonderful
One of the all time great performances, that exemplified our collective yearning for the Lord.
Absolutely gorgeous, can't hold back my tears!!!!
It is always Amazing listening to Mormon Tabernacle choir,They always uplift my spirit
I told myself tonight that I would find this exact one by the choir. The gentleman crying while singing has been in my memory for four years and tonight I got to hear and see it again. This one is so moving! My heart yearns to be with them singing it. I am not a singer, but my heart sings it just as loud and true. He will come again!
In this moment I feel saved. God I love you and all his children. I could listen to this 1000 times and wouldn't be enough.
Such a beautiful hymn and lyrics I can relate to.
Jesus sought me when a stranger
Wandering from the fold of God
He to rescue me from danger
Interposed His precious blood
My favorite hymn can’t be sang any more perfect in this mortal state. The Spirit is so strong.
Beautiful song, I absolutely love angelic voices. Blessings and hugs brothers and sisters 🕊️💖🙏
I needed this today
The Lord always gives us, what we need.
Isn't He just amazing!
Watching the expressive faces of those singing this beautiful hymn adds so much to the video. Thank you.
This was sung so beautifully, and it made me bawl! Eve my five year-old daughter thought it was pretty and asked me to rewind it so she could hear it again. Thank you for providing us with such beautiful music that brings the Spirit.
One of my favorite hymns. This was beautiful!!🙏🏻🙏🏻
This is my favourite song in the history of songs ever.thanks to the writer
Beautiful but I totally lose it when they showed the man crying while still singing.. Beautiful song
I'm the exact same.
I totally lose it about 1 second in. lol!
my favorite song from Frederick MD slack .
How any of them manage to sing some of these hymns without breaking down I just don't know. I have trouble at church sometimes....this is such a gorgeous song.
Jeanne Haessler I thought I was the only one who cried while singing hymns
If that doesn't convert you to the savior, I don't know what will. Absolutely gorgeous! I have a recording of this song on my phone but this is probably the best I've ever heard them sing it.
When the men came in strong and on their own around minute 2, it took my breath away! Amazing. :o)
I have performed this song many times, and that moment the men come in is my absolute favorite part. Goosebumps every time.
Just a taste of how worship will be in Heaven.
So Beautiful and Inspiring!! Thank you so much!!
I enjoy seeing the man crying. He truly expresses how I feel when the song is sung!
Feeling blessed just listening to this. Beautiful hymn
Good LDS have strong light eye's ❤
What a Hymn that wraps me the Spirit of the Lord!
3:19 the guy is feelin it ^_^
I'm actually related to the guy that was crying right then. And I cried right along with him. I cried throughout the whole song actually.
Tears flow, because one time or another, our hearts wandered, left the God we love :')
but despite all of that. . . They are willing to take our hearts and seal it to Them.
Guy at 3:26, my heart is crying with you.
me too
#ItamarJunior me too because I sing this song my first song
Russel Anderson yes🙏🏻
y’all look at the 3 first sopranos at 5:22, you can see and tell how powerful those notes at the end and it’s like a piece of cake to them. Those are some super high notes
The firsts end on a high C. These gals sing it with such ease.
I sing in my church choir and I can't even imagine holding a note that long! 😰
Jesus is indeed God
Hits you straight to the Soul.
I love tabernacle choir ❤❤❤
The choir member that is crying is one of the most touching moments in this song. Made me start to cry myself.
Wow the spirit is so strong every time I hear this song. This song is so amazing.
The Holly Spirit as it moves in us, forever.
how could anyone dislike this song?
Some times music sounds like heaven. It carries me calling comforting me , the voices echoing a eternal rest to a place far off looking back and close by moving forward , cradling the earth beneath me soothing my soul , holding me , softly healing and reaching places that be so far away opens me up Quickening the long haul basking beauty all around comfort taking my troubles away renewing strength a miracle happens the church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints.
Wow thanks for sharing that beautifully and profound written comment. I like stuff like this
He lives.
So many of the men have glistening eyes holding back their tears.
Now that's a beautiful thing - right there! What a powerful witness!
love, love, love this Hymn..........
Belo hino, superiormente interpretado quer vocal quer instrumental. Não frequento esta Igreja, minha formação é católica embora tambem não vá com assiduidade aos cultos, mas respeito todas as formas sinceras de louvor a Deus. Muito belo.
One of THE best hymns ever.
The song of the righteous is truly a prayer unto the almighty.
Imagine Guys too sing there what a special spirit. To sing with the God's Choir on earth? What privilege
I always rejoice when the organ comes in during the end of the first verse and the choir ladies have kept the pitch, because I've been there, done that with the Arizona Mormon Choir.

Hello! I'm pleased to know you. A capella singing certainly has its terrors, but even more so when you know an accompanying instrument is going to join you at some point. Best wishes to you in singing with the So Cal Mormon Choir.
My very first time singing with my very first helper for my church choir sang this song from 200🤞🏻🙏🏻 doing again
This hymn always make me cry, i love it, it's incredibly beautiful.
This beautiful hymn starts as soft and as the hymn goes on the build up to the last verse will have you in tears you feel how STRONG the spirit carries you as if this were you entering the Gates of Heaven.. To know the Church is True is for one to seek out for themselves in these trying times.. This Hymn is what everyone struggling through human battles must know they are not alone and can fight through all hardships in this life..
This is my favorite song, and helped me get through Basic along with I Need Thee Every Hour
Can you please do that for me please
Anyone who has sung in a choir knows the terror of singing a capella (without accompaniment), knowing that the instruments will be coming back in, and if you have slipped off pitch it will be painfully obvious! Here the women start a capella, and when the organ comes in at :34 they are RIGHT ON. Then the men take the chord at 2:05 and start singing a capella in new key.

1 Come, thou Fount of every blessing,

mount of God's redeeming love.
2 Here I find my greatest treasure;
hither by thy help I've come;
and I hope, by thy good pleasure,

Jesus sought me when a stranger,
wandering from the fold of God;

bought me with his precious blood.
3 Oh, to grace how great a debtor
daily I'm constrained to be!
Let thy goodness, like a fetter,

At the beginning was if you could hide to Kolob my favourite hymn but now it's these Heavenly Hymn... 🙏
God lives!, and His Son, Jesus, “is” THE Christ!, and hymns like this teach me again and again this it true.
I come here everytime i'm feeling down. Lifts up my spirit!
I can't stop watching this! So amazing, so powerful, and so spiritual! It's really hard not to feel this spirit with this song and you can tell that every member of the choir can feel it. ❤
My favorite hymn, it's just, sublime
Prone to wander, Lord I feel it
Prone to leave the God I love
Here's my heart, oh take and seal it
Seal it for Thy courts above

Oh to grace how great a debtor
Daily I’m constrained to be
Let Thy goodness, like a fetter
Bind my wandering heart to Thee
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it
Prone to leave the God I love
Here’s my heart, oh take and seal it
Seal it for Thy courts above
VERSE 4
Oh that day when freed from sinning
I shall see Thy lovely face
Full arrayed in blood-washed linen
How I’ll sing Thy sovereign grace
Come, my Lord, no longer tarry
Bring Thy promises to pass
For I know Thy pow’r will keep me
Till I’m home with Thee at last
