I was once a blasphemer and a persecutor of the Christian faith, but now I confess that Jesus is Lord. Today I was baptised in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, and I chose this song for the service.
Our son Michael was killed two years ago in a suicide car bomb blast in Somalia, He died serving his country. This song was softly played by the Navy band as his casket was placed on the caisson at Arlington National Cemetery. I will never forget it. We love you, Son. Dad.
"Gentlemen, it has been a privilege playing with you tonight."
In 1964, I was at my grandparets home in N.C., when a tornado blew their house away, there were 9 of us in that house. After it had passed and we all got out, my mother said this song was on her mind and in her heart. To this day when I hear it, I think of her and that day in 1964, when 9 people walked out of that wreak of a house with only a few scratches and bruises. We were blessed, God was indeed, near to us.
I am a devout Muslim but I can't control my tears listening to this beautiful piece. Idc if you're Christian, Muslim or Jewish, we're all the same in the eyes of God ❤️
This song was played at sinkage of Titanic . All the musicians who played this to calm the passengers died but did a job that will always remain in history
I'm a Muslim and this song makes me cry. God bless you all :)
My son Michael was a musician when he played this on the sax it always made me cry, he passed away at 34 and I had them play this at his funeral, my grief was horrible I didn't want to live without him but when I hear this beautiful song I know he is nearer to God than me!! Love you Mike sending you kisses on this Mother's Day, until I see you again!!
My mother shared this with me last night as she left this painful world.
“Gentlemen it was an honor playing with you” Titanic
Gentlemen, it has been a privilege playing with you tonight
After Midnight Mass's ending, sunrises hit different.
At 74, I feel so much near to God than I did when I was younger. I can't wait until I can bow down to Jesus and kiss the wounds of His sacred feet.
"Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, for You are with me."
This addiction is broken, anger is broken in Jesus name amen
He's a father to the fatherless and a defender of widows.❤
My Nana passed away today, after 93 years on this Earth. I helped take care of her for many years, as she helped look after me when I was young. Now she is in the Kingdom of Heaven with her husband and lost loved ones. One of the last things she said to me was “see you soon, Matty”. Yes, Nana, I shall see you soon. Be at peace, I love you forever and always.
Just today I'm in a foreign country alone, confused about the next step as an international student. Someone played so lovely this song in front of a shoping mall it brought back home memories and peace
I am a young widow, my husband just passed away, and I am hearing this song for the first time. I couldn't be in a better place than Nearer to Him, the Almighty God. Thank you
RIP all the beautiful souls who were lost on the Titanic.
