Glorious Is Thy Name

Since the purpose of my YouTube channel is to document and archive my years as organist-choirmaster, this video is from a new series including some favorite choral works (performed under my direction and accompaniment) from the "Middle Arlington" years (1986-1995). I have divided my organist-choirmaster years into 6 periods: #1 (1965-1972) The "Goochland/Winchester" Years; #2 (1972-1978) The "Culpeper" Years; #3 (1978-1985) The "Early Arlington" Years ... with the old Moeller 27-rank Pipe Organ; #4 (1986-1995) The "Middle Arlington" Years ... with the new Moeller 37-rank Pipe Organ, Pre-Sanctuary Renovation; #5 (1996-2005) The "Late Arlington" Years ... with relocated and digitized pipe organ, Post-Sanctuary Renovation; #6 (2005-Present) The "Richmond" Years. This anthem (3rd in the series) is a May 19, 1991 Choral Union recording of "Glorious Is Thy Name" (based on Mozart's "Gloria" from the 12th Mass"). TEXT: "Glorious is Thy Name, Almighty Lord. All the angels stand ... all around Thy throne. Let all nations bow before Thee and declare Thy wondrous works. We praise Thee. We give thanks to Thee. We adore Thee. We glorify Thee! Lord, we adore Thee; we bless Thee. Lord, we thank Thee for Thy great glory! Heaven is Thy throne and earth is Thy footstool. Thou art King over all the world. Glorious is Thy Name, O Lord. Blessing and honor be to God forever, and evermore!"
