Thanks for all this beautiful music! I was particularly wanting to hear "Come, Ye Sinners, Poor and Needy" by Larry Shackley - both to decide whether or not to buy it, and also to get a feel for how to play it. Yours is the only recording I found, so thanks again - beautiful job!

my names chris, im watching from my wifes account. i used to play the piano like this. i can barely play anymore much even walk. i contracted an auto immune disease in June 2019 and within six months had massive amounts of neuropathy in hands, feet, neck, and lower face. listening to your music makes me cry but also gives me hope. i started a very strict paleo diet in February last year and it is working, though slowly, very well. went from 216lbs to 161lbs currently and off blood pressure meds as well as immune supressing drugs. i recently started playing very simpely and for short time periods the 22nd of this month after a five month break. in 22 years as a pianist I've never went a week without playing until the disease. the only thong that has kept me from ending my life while going through 20 months of all day, every day irretractable pain, depression, and anxiety has been the lord Jesus christ and his word. i waited patiently for the lord and he turned to me and heard my cry. he lifted me out of the slimmy pit, out of the muck and mire and set my feet upon a rock and established my goings. he put a new song in my heart a hymn a praise unto our god. many will see it and fear the lord and put their trust in him.

This is beautiful! How can you play for so long without making a single mistake? AMAZING, God be the glory!

I LOVE your selection of hymns and songs. It's like I picked them all out! And yet I'm at least 40 years older than you! I guess some music is timeless. Thank you for sharing in this year of so much hurting. I sometimes think we might all be happier if we all stopped talking and sang and made music instead. Excellent work, and glorifying to God.

Beautiful, Julia! Thanks for sharing your God given gift! Soli Deo Gloria!

[RalucaBojor]

What a beautiful performance!! You play really elegantly. Congratulations!

[mellordstudio]

Thank you so much for uploading these wonderful piano covers of hymns

[BestPianoStudio]

What a beautiful performance. I don't think I've ever witnesses such a wonderful and extensive sacred music performance as this. Just stunning!!! Thank you so much!

[elizabethjesenko]

Beautiful- what talent!! Thank you for sharing!!

[teelo]

Beautiful concert! Thank you for including my arrangement of "Deep River", around 55:52 in the concert. It was published in the January/February 2006 issue of The Church Pianist magazine, by Lorenz Publishing. (I still sometimes dig this piece out if I am asked to play for a funeral or some other occasion where quiet music is wanted.) Thank you for including it in your concert! - Terry

So good. This has been my study music recently. Love the occasional Joplin feel.

[thelittleredpiano]

This is all so beautiful. I am a pianist myself (just getting started with a youtube channel) so I definitely appreciate what you're doing here. And your style sounds so similar to mine!

[stephanielan]

Your music is so touching ! Where can I get the sheet music ?

[stevedewberry]

Love the old hymns but how cool was it when she started playing 10, 000 Reasons?

[ruthruth]

Pls give me the sheet I want to play it in my church. Please

[JesusismyLordandSavior]

I love how the bass notes sound on that piano! I used to have a 7 foot Yamaha grand piano that my uncle left me in his will but had to sell it because it was too big for my home. How beautiful yours sounds! Is it also a 7 footer or is it even longer? Thank you for sharing your blessing with us!
