I am absolutely stunned by the pure beauty of this, Arsenio.

Having never heard of this before now, this is one of the most beautiful things that I have ever seen and heard in my entire life.

A life dedicated to music and having heard almost every possible kind.

Yet, this...this strikes a very deep chord inside me - the one that only my Creator can strike within me - I know this feeling well, and have felt it many times
and when I do, I wish for that feeling never to end. Do you understand what I'm expressing??

This - this is the music of God, or the closest that mere humans can come to finding the voices and sacred tones of His angels.

Thank you so much for sharing this with all of us.

This one just made my own personal Shabbat Shalom so much better. :)

Peace and Love in God.

I am so gad you were blessed by this hymn.

Someone requested I post a similar hymn, and I obliged; Afterwards, I found this one by the same choir, and thought it should also be featured on the blog for everyone's inspiration.

Happy Sabbath!

Hi,

Yes, this one is truly amazing.

While I was of course very impressed by the choir itself, I was also curious and moved to research who the composer was.

I was very surprised to learn that it was not some centuries old hymn, but was written quite recently (in 1998) by a composer named Tom Fettke, who lives in Califonia.

It's great work from him and the choir's interpretation of it. I can hear the divine inspiration flowing through it every time I hear it. I have a good ear for that kind of thing, a gift from God that I feel very blessed to have been given.

Happy Sabbath to you, and thanks again for making mine even better with this excellent music of praise for God, who loves us more than we know.
