800 Musicians Perform A Powerful Version Of 'Nearer, My God, To Thee' And Oh, The Chills
October 02, 2020
'Nearer, My God, To Thee' is already a powerful hymn. But 800 musicians take it to a whole other level as they worship together virtually.
James Stevens is credited with the original arrangement and Latin lyrics for this song. And as you listen to these words, you will be reminded that no matter what trouble you face, God is always by our side.
“In articulo mortis (At the moment of death)
Caelitus mihi vires (My strength is from heaven)
Deo adjuvante non timendum (God helping, nothing should be feared)
In perpetuum (For ever)”

Vocal Point is a men’s choir known for their a cappella covers of beloved hymns and secular favorites such as ‘Be Thou My Vision’ and ‘The Climb.’ Today, they’ve gathered over 800 musicians from 55 different countries to perform the classic hymn ‘Nearer, My God, To Thee.’
Collaboration Of 800 Musicians
With vocalists from Argentina, Sweden, Thailand and more, this virtual performance is full of love and praise for our Lord.
“Still all my song shall be
Nearer, my God, to thee,
Nearer, my God, to thee,
Nearer to thee!"
What a powerful reminder that the Creator of the universe is always right by our side!
We all walk through difficult times in our lives. But during these moments, it is so important to turn to God and let Him lead the way.
Trust in Him with all your heart and you will find yourself nearer to God each and every day.
