Who else loves this dang organ! Praise God.
AND THOSE KEY CHANGES :0 me as a intermediate organist watching as that guy really blows me away!!
Listening to Mr. Metzger playing this, even though it is over 11 years old, just reminds me of one Sabbath in church when my choir director, who was also an organist played this for the hymn of praise. When he modulated the third verse I couldn't bring myself to sing. It was too overwhelming. I felt like shouting alleluia that morning. There was so much power and holy presence during the singing of that hymn. I can't wait to begin music studies.
For sure this is amazing
Its fun because every tune is stolen and nobody cares about plagiarism because the SDA church is a cult
A pipe system like that must rattle your bones. I'd love to be in that room & just FEEL this instrument.
You felt it reverberating in your chest cavity. The whole building--nay, the whole BLOCK shook. Worship there was truly done in the presence of GOD.
This is a thousand times better than what has become the "traditional" praise and worship music of so many churches!
Isn't that the truth. I love the old hymns.
Wonderful rendition of a wonderful hymn of Praise! Where else, but in the Christian faith will you find such songs of joy and praise...
This is the day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it. What better way to do that than by singing his praise alongside this organ!
Well, actually the Lord made ALL of the days, and He rested on the Seventh Day, the Sabbath, and Blessed it, and Hallowed it. Doctor George Whitehead
Just when I thought it was over-the-top, I heard the Pedal Tower Chimes...
I love it!! This is so inspiring! All of Mr. Metzger's arrangements of these hymns are just incredible, and again, inspiring! Thank you for posting all of these!
LORD, bless this church and it's future.
It's great to hear other organists still writing arrangements for Sunday morning hymns, rather than just play the four part harmony over and over again. This Ruffatti organ has quite a sound, the trumpets are something to talk about, thanks for posting all these wonderful hymns!
This is a sabbath church, its a cult, use your brain and learn something real instead of sitting in church
It's tragic that this church seems to have gone down the "praise band" route in recent years and this inspiring musical worship is now a thing of the past.
Actually, it’s a tragedy!! How I miss this music!!
@Kieran Cabana That's what happens when the clueless are given the reins.
@@James_Bowie I know this new stuff has grown in popularity and that many prefer it but you would think that such a big church would just do both.
"And mightier music thrill the skies!" Amen.
I love the use of trumpets in this arrangement
Absolutely fantastic Descant on the last verse .Love the Arrangement.
Mr. Metzger, very well done. Nice harmonic changes. Truly, "To God Be The Glory".
God be praised!
I am so glad !! Lord Blessing this church!
Joyfully Christian singing for the Lord. Hope I can come and visit this church. Philippines
Wow, if I played that fast at my church there would be a revolt!
hahahaha cool
Bring it on.
Good timing by congregation
This Make me want to jump in and Play that great big organ . when I was 12 year old my mom let me sit with her while she Played the organ . it was like an experience and those great big pipes looked so scary but really really neat Looking .
Lindíssimo! Majestoso! Bravoooooooo!!!
Soli Deo Gloria!
What church service should be!
As a member, the best years of my earthly life. My beloved Dr. Kennedy. Both the traditional and contemporary service had the awesome presence of our Creator and Savior. Clay Braswell was a godsend. Picture 2000 Presbyterians raising their hands in worship in the contemporary service. I remember the traditional service as a place where it got so glorious that one day a white dove appeared and fluttered all over us, then disappeared. Pentecostals have need of experiencing the real "thing."
Praise the lord.
The organ has a number of tuned percussion possibilities, provided by the integrated Mass-Rowe digital carillon or the Walker digital voices. You name it, its probably in there somewhere.
To God Be The Glory
beautiful singing. These videos are worthy of being improved on considering the technology available. It will be a worthwhile project as this type of music is not heard that often live.
Lovely
Also, that lady over Dr. Kennedy's left shoulder towards the end must be the "head soprano". Only squealing out a G# at full force could warrant making a face like that! HAHAHA! I"m just teasing, good arrangement :).
Have you published a transcript of this hymn arrangement anywhere? It doesn't appear to been in either of the "Festival Hymn" books you've published.
Well done!! 👍
i love this organ. Sam whem i go to Florida can I come to your church and play the organ (not at a service :)
He's gone from there.
There is definitely a zimbelstern on there, see above for what that is, but it sounds like he has a Glockenspiel...you'd commonly find one in a Sousa-style marching band, or on theatre organs...on as well...sounds like it's being played from another division via a "melody coupler" or something, as I only hear the top note of what's being played sounding. That's my best guess...lol
I like the intro. Inspired by Gigout?

❤️🙏🎵🎶
This is awesome. Would be great if the stanzas were on the screen too....
+KSitz77 WHO NEEDS A SCREEN? Read the music and sing in parts as GOD intends!
Dale Rider Amen!!
I absolutely love the pedal on this! I'm curious about the stop used in the second verse that sounds like bells...
It's the star-looking thing called a zimbelstern. I think that's how it is spelt
Actually I think it's a Glockenspiel
@@levimatheri7682 no....you don't find glockenspiel on an organ.
@@adienromarirez2309 yes you do. I used to play a church organ that had one. Also here's the specifications for this organ on this video. It has Glockenspiel in the Solo division mk0coralridgepr4ujyo.kinstacdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/RuffattiSpecs.pdf
@adienromarirez2309 actually this organ does have a glockenspiel. And that was it on the second verse.
How can I buy or get your song scores?

Why are the men wearing dresses? Where is that in the Bible? CONFUSION!
What are you talking about??? Men wearing choir robes and the minister wearing his robe? I have never heard anyone refer to a choir or a minister’s robe as a dress. And as far as the Bible is concerned. I have yet to find the place where the Bible instructs Christians as to how they are supposed to dress in church.
You do realize that in Christ’s time men wore robes every day. Christ himself would have worn a long robe as his everyday dress. We don’t know that for the Bible doesn’t go into the minutiae of everyday dress. But considering that people dressed that way in those times, it’s pretty much certain that he did. So by that logic you are essentially saying that Christ himself wore a dress. Talk about confusion!
The Bible doesn’t say that we should go to church every Sunday but we do (unless seventh day Adventists) anyway. It just says to remember the sabbath and keep it holy. I don’t hear people gripe and complain that we shouldn’t go to church on Sunday since the Bible doesn’t say we should. One thing the Bible does make quite clear is that Christ didn’t worry about the attire people would wear to a church service. There were much more important things that he had to worry about.
What I also find really confusing is how a Christian can question whether men wearing robes are actually wearing dresses as if it were a huge deal when it is obvious they are wearing a robe. I would encourage you to go back and review Christ’s teachings to his disciples instead of sitting behind a computer criticizing the attire that congregants are wearing in a church service. How we serve and love one another was one of the main messages that Christ preached, as recorded in the Bible. Not a word was mentioned about the appropriateness of wearing a robe.
I would ask people who make these types of comments on here to please be careful what you write. Non-Christians who might be interested in learning about Christ read things like your post and all too often they lose all interest in learning more. I have known several people that lost interest in learning about Christ because of misleading messages. That’s because they think that all Christians think that way, and they want no part of it. You turn more people away from Christ than you bring into his flock. Showing love, compassion, forgiveness, and other good traits are how we bring people to Christianity. Not by questioning the wearing of choir robes.
You must not fade out during the Lord's Prayer. That's unbearable.
The introduction from the labeled illustrious Dr. D. James Kennedy so copies his far better rival Dr. Robert Schuller. Sad that he has to imitate to seem special. This should say, "Metzger-alla-Gigout." Although the Gigout Grand Chœur Dialogué-esque" trumpet en chamade fanfares are festive and fun, it's the wrong metrical meter for the hymn. Then there is the overzealous registration that covers up the rhythm, as well as, the voices: but none of that is the point, is it? The unpronounced key change totally obscured. "Condignly." Wow, the only true grammatically well used word here.
