Paul and I are singing in a quartet for Easter Tomorow. Our friends Dave and Karen invited us to prepare this hymn with them for Sacrament Meeting. Here is a montage of our rehearsal this morning. I am hoping to get a better version tomorow when we run through it again before the meeting, but just in case that does not work out, you can get the spirit of the song from this run through. Our friend Lynn was the accompanist.
Ensign Article that includes the text and music of this song by the Late James E. Faust, apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ
1. They heard His voice, a voice so mild.
It pierced them through and made their souls to quake.
They saw Him come, a man in white,
The Savior, who had suffered for their sake.
They felt the wounds in hands and side,
And each could testify:
Chorus:
This is the Christ.
This is the Christ, the holy Son of God,
Our Savior, Lord, Redeemer of mankind.
This is the Christ, the Healer of our souls,
Who ransomed us with love divine.
2. I read His words, the words He prayed
While bearing sorrow in Gethsemane.
I feel His love, the price He paid.
How many drops of blood were spilled for me?
With Saints of old in joyful cry
I too can testify:
Words: James E. Faust, b. 1920, and Jan Pinborough, b. 1954
Music: Michael Finlinson Moody, b. 1941
