"Come, ye faithful, raise the strain", St. Bartholomew's Church

#199 from The Hymnal 1982: Processional Hymn for the Fifth Sunday of Easter at St. Bartholomew's, an Episcopal church in New York City on May 22, 2011. The opening hymn, from the Eastern Orthodox tradition, was written originally in Greek by St. John of Damascus in the 8th century. The English translation was written by John M. Neale in the 19th century. By the year 2054, Western and Eastern Christianity will have been officially separated for almost a millennium now; it's moving when music finds a way over the borderline, and inspired to share the riches of both sides of Christendom. The hymn tune, 'St. Kevin', dates from the early 19th century and was composed by Arthur Seymour Sullivan. After the hymn, St. Bartholomew's unique Mass setting for the Kyrie and Gloria are sung. (You can find the Sanctus and the Agnus Dei in the video marked "Palm Sunday: Eucharistic Prayer"). I do not claim to own this music, nor am I profiting from it in any way. I simply want to share with the world the beauty and the diversity of Christian worship.
