LYRICS
Glorious things of thee are spoken,
Sion, city of our God;
He whose word cannot be broken
Formed thee for his own abode:
On the Rock of Ages founded,
What can shake thy sure repose?
With salvation's walls surrounded,
Thou may'st smile at all thy foes.
See, the streams of living waters,
Springing from eternal love,
Well supply thy sons and daughters,
And all fear of want remove:
Who can faint, while such a river
Ever flows their thirst to assuage?
Grace, which like the Lord the giver,
Never fails from age to age.
Saviour, if of Sion's city
I through grace a member am,
Let the world deride or pity,
I will glory in thy name.
Fading are the worldlings' pleasures,
All their boasted pomp and show;
Solid joys and lasting treasures,
None but Sion's children know.
Words: John Newton (1725-1807), alt. | Tune: Abbot's Leigh | Cyril Taylor (1907-91)
Final verse arr. Simon Johnson (b.1975), Organist of St Paul's (2008-21)

I am Catholic but Anglican hymns mobilize my spirit♥️✝️
I am Anglican and Catholic mass is suicidal. 😂
Thank you!Great tradition!Very nice music, marvelous church,I am a big fan of Queen Elizabeth,she is adorable!!God save the Queen!!
It’s a cathedral
Thanks @CHOR GESANG for posting these snippets from the St Paul's service. It's been an overwhelming experience to have been part of our Queen's last Jubilee celebrations, and it's going to be many decades before we in the UK see anything like it again. As I write this, the last procession along the Mall is being screened. In a way, I'm glad I'm at home watching on TV and not there in person, I was totally shattered when I returned home on Thursday after being part of the celebrations, no wonder her Majesty was also knocked for six! I was born a Georgian, but for most of my life have been an Elizabethan, and what an exciting period in history it's been. I would live it all again in a heartbeat, given the chance! God Save The Queen, and thanks again for these 70 glorious years!.👏👏👏
If anything we have learned never to underestimate Her Majesty the Queen. We might very well see another Diamond at 75 or even and Oak Jubilee at 80. I pray that we will not part ways with the Queen for many years. She is a blessing to Britain, to the Commonwealth, and to humanity.
God Himself was Ever Present at The Jubilee Service of His servant Her Most Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II
Beautifully said🥲🙂
I love the Abbot's Leigh melody. This hymn is usually sung to the Austrian Hymn tune by Franz Josef Haydn. Austrian Hymn is also the tune used for the German national anthem, Deutschland Uber Alles, which people in the UK did not want to sing during World War II, especially when they were singing in a school auditorium because their church had been bombed. Cyril Taylor was director of music for the religious service of the BBC which had been moved to the little town of Abbot's Leigh during the war. He made it metrically identical to Austrian Hymn so that the British people could enjoy their hymn sung to a lovely English melody.
Magnificent!!
Thank you 😊 🙏😊
Bin immer wieder erstaunt, wie gut eine britische Gemeinde singt.
Das Arrangement ist großartig!
Nun, wir Indianer sind nicht weniger als sie. Dies ist die Wiedergabe derselben Hymne auf die Melodie Austrian Hymn, die zufällig auch die Melodie Ihrer Hymne ist. czcams.com/video/LQJUrK5vh4g/video.html
Ganz herzlichen Dank🎵❤️
Great poem on Ps. 87 verse 3!
Please read the text of this hymn.
我記得一個調子是「山川壯麗，物產豐隆」版本的
Неужели они все в нотах разбираются? А мелодия интересная,мощная . Очень впечатляет.
Not necessarily but the choir and organ leads the congregation. In English Church music best tunes are used and the melody is always highlighted and sung in unison rather than harmony. This simply means that the congregation sings the soprano part, irrespective of their vocal range (be it Alto, tenor or bass) while the choir sings in harmony. This hymn is usually sung to Austrian Hymn tune which is the tune for German National Anthem.
Does anyone have the music sheet of this version? Thank you very much in advance!
The tune is "Abbot's Leigh" by C V Taylor, and you can find the words with that tune as Hymn 257 in Hymns Ancient and Modern Revised, published by William Clowes in 1972. But that doesn't include the spectacular descant.
Here it is. Can send you a pic. Please PM.
@@faramir thank you very much for the information! I appreciate it!
@@AndreasFKipping Hi! Please would really appreciate if I can also get it
Any luck getting this? I would really appreciate it if you could send it to me

OK.
Well they certainly couldn't use the "Austria" tune.....
They only had music by British composers for this service.
@@johnforsbergbarrett923 Rightfully so!
