    This song has moved me. I am in awe of God and the words fit so well with how I feel. I have listened to it many many times. Thank you so much.

    To think that this hymn is over 100 years old! The lyrics so anointed and the chords draw me into worship. No sitting down when this song is playing!

    It’s not what you play, It’s what you leave out that makes a great song…Great lyrics and music!

    Just a note for anyone that reads that the original key is better thought of as Ab not G#. G# has 8 sharps, including an F##……..ugh!
