franciscanheart Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 So how about it kiddos? I think I was first introduced to it at Youth 2000 (someone correct me if I'm wrong) and I absolutely love it. It is a very soothing song I think. It really calms my nerves and usually puts me very quickly into a very respectful and humble place to worship. I play guitar for the youth group at my parish (since we no longer have another guitarist) and this is one song I have purposely [i]not[/i] played. There is a Youth 2000 in like April and I think that is the best place to first experience the song. That way the song reminds you of the experiences of that time and not of youth group. I want them to remember touching the garments, not sitting in a circle on bean bags singing with the group. Both are nice, but Youth 2000 is better (IMHO). Anyway... that's where I heard it and obviously I like it a lot. How about you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tojo Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 If it's the same one as the one I know (which is likely, I learned it from youth), I love, love, love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laudate_Dominum Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 I went to a retreat once where they had a dude with long hair and an electric guitar who played his version of that hymn about 50 times before the thing was over and that was pretty lame. I love the real way of singing Adoramus Te Domine, but the Axl Rose version stunk on ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qfnol31 Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 Kinda quick compared to how I normally hear it and a slight variation (more harmony), but here: [url="http://www.carmelita-delmis.org/adoramus.mp3"]http://www.carmelita-delmis.org/adoramus.mp3[/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[right][snapback]847288[/snapback][/right] [/quote] we're getting luckier every day. we just had a new youth room built for us over a gym at one of the church's school campuses and we have our own private chapel where Mass is said for just the youth. our priest recently bought these chairs that are chaped with back and arm rests and are filled with beans. we also have foot stool things made from the same materials. we also just got a pool table, air hockey, a library (small in the youth groom) and an entertainment center. i dont say this to brag at all either. what we really need is a good orthodox youth minister!! : but back to the song...
