As the Deer

[John (BGD)]

Here is a lesson for the popular gospel song “As the Deer.”

As the Deer

[Rock]

John, what a beautiful song, thank you. I never heard it before, fantastic!

[Justine]

What a beautiful song! Like Rock, I had never heard it before. Thank you for a beautiful, new lesson, John!

Thanks for putting this up.  Our church youth group sings this, with one of the teen girls playing her violin during a break; they play it in C, though.

Sounds great!

Great lesson, John.  So sweet and relaxing!

Here is a video sent to me by Brenda Gonzalez in the Philippines. She contacted BGD less than a year ago wanting to learn how to play the fiddle. We sent her a fiddle, made possible by a gift from a member, and signed her up for lessons. What do you think? Her brother is playing the drums with her.

When you have a student that has an ear to pick it up like she does it’s very rewarding John….

[Rock]

Wow! She has learned so much in less than a year, very smooth. Thank you, John for posting the video.

[John (BGD)]

It is very rewarding! You sow and sow, never knowing where you will reap. In this case, Brenda and her siblings (five total) have been working very hard to play music in church together. Their father is the pastor, and he plays the guitar. They are developing a family band. It really is a joy to see the progress.

Wow, way to go Brenda ! That was amazingly beautiful for Under a year, so happy to hear this this morning,what an inspiration .

merci,

Gu

so wonderful and inspiring…very touching.

Way to go Brenda and family.  And, blessings to the giver of the fiddle, the teacher and the touch of the Master’s hand.  :^)

Just imagine what she’ll be able to do in another year thanks to the generosity of others…Well done Brenda and family!

HI John, Would you have the track for he intermediate version of “As The Deer”? I looked around and couldn’t find any other than the beginner version. I just need to hear how its played once. Thanks.

 

[Rock]

Hi fiddler51, it is in the sheet music section at the top of the page.

[Rock]

Sorry, I miss read your post. 🙁

[John (BGD)]

No problem, thanks Rock. 🙂 Glen, I just realized I don’t have a track for that. I will get one up ASAP.

[fiddler51]

Hi John,  How is  “As The Deer” intermediate track coming along? No pressure, just curious.

[fiddler51]

John, Thank you for the intermediate version of  “As The Deer.” I really appreciate the time and effort you put into this site. 🙂

 

[John (BGD)]

Hi! Good news — I have made a video for it while at camp this week. 🙂 I will put it on as soon as I get back into good WiFi.

We had a service Sunday morning at the Sunchild Native Reserv and “As the Deer” is one of the songs they sang. I will also be teaching the beginner version to the children here this week.
