    Please enjoy these simple recordings and feel free to give suggestions and requests! Thumbs up?... What did you like? Thumbs down?... What can I change for you?
    Keep in mind that the main purpose of these videos is to help folks learn harmony parts to hymns and not to sound perfect. These recordings will sound a touch raw for a few reasons; I am not a trained singer, I am using very simple recording hardware, my recording 'studio' is a coat closet that is just big enough for me to fit in. ( :
    If you enjoy the way that these hymns are sang and want to experience them in person, stop by just about any church of Christ and they'll likely be singing them the same way. Without instruments.
    My recording process:
    -Record each part on a Rode NT1-A on to a Zoom H4 recorder
    -Some pitch correction in Melodyne
    -Mix in Mixcraft 6
    -Combine audio and sheet music in Corel VideoStudio X7
    -Music is typeset in Finale 2012 by me or borrowed from PDHymns.com
    -Gear can be found here: www.zzounds.com/a--3859004/ite...
    To my knowledge, most of the hymns that I record and post are public domain (except the ones I've obtained permission for). If you notice one that is NOT public domain, let me know as soon as possible so that I can take that video down.

    The second verse is exactly why I came back to the Church - this world is a sick place right now. Every day I felt despair, seeing it fall into ignorance, bickering, selfishness, and pettiness to a degree that I'd never imagined was possible, and all in the name of kindness and justice. My heart has no desire to stay where these hold sway over the hearts of mankind. I choose the Lord's way, and may I never leave it again.

    May I request the song by parts? so that we can learn the varous parts(alto, tenor, soprano and bass) ? it would be really a great thing for us. Thanks and God bless you !

      I mean, when you say this...I am reminded that /all/ should sing with their hearts, and their joy be made known with their mouths. Instruments of Man, are not worthy of the praise of God.

      @markwoody2899 Před 6 lety

      A Cappella Hymns I'm sorry you couldn't find it. I put it on a playlist called RAY WALKER on my channel if you would like to listen to him sing it. It's a live congregational from one of his albums. However, I did not know who wrote the piece because that one you just suggested is not the one I'm thinking of, I believe

    Hi. Can I request "Fill My Cup, Lord" please?

    • @CC-ee7bj
      @CC-ee7bj Před 6 lety

      I believe it was composed in 1953 by Richard E. Blanchard, published sometime between 1959-1964.
