Taryn Harbridge, a talented young violinist, has touched many hearts with her beautiful rendition of ‘To God Be The Glory’ in a forest setting.
Music has a special way of lifting our spirits and bringing us closer to God. When someone uses their talents to create beauty and inspire others, it reminds us how powerful music can be in our faith lives.
Taryn’s performance of ‘To God Be The Glory’ is a perfect example of this. As she plays her violin, you can see and hear her love for God shining through every note.
‘To God Be The Glory’ is a hymn many of us know well. Fanny Crosby wrote it back in 1875, and it’s been sung in churches ever since. The words praise God for His love and the gift of salvation.
Taryn’s version doesn’t have words, but the familiar melody still carries the same message of praise.
Taryn chose to play this hymn in a forest. Picture tall trees all around and sunlight peeking through the leaves. It’s as if nature itself is joining in the worship. As Taryn plays, her skirt swirls around her, adding to the joyful feeling of the music.
You can tell Taryn has practiced a lot to play so well. But what really stands out is how much she seems to love what she’s doing. Each note feels like a prayer, turning her music into an act of worship.
The way she plays makes the old hymn sound fresh and new, while still keeping the warmth we love about it.
People who’ve watched Taryn’s videos online have been deeply moved. One person wrote, “Taryn, you are serving God and His people so wonderfully with the extraordinary talent He has blessed you with.”
Another said, “Absolutely beautiful, all Glory and honor to God alone! God bless You, Taryn!” It’s clear her music is doing more than just sounding nice – it’s touching people’s hearts.
Taryn has a clear goal for her music. She says, “My ultimate goal in making music videos is to glorify God, encourage and uplift the body of Christ, and to share the Good News of the gospel with the world.”
You can see this purpose in everything about her performance – from where she’s playing to the joy on her face as she plays.
Taryn has played many other well-known hymns too, like ‘Amazing Grace’ and ‘How Great Thou Art’. Each time, she helps us hear these familiar songs in a new way. Even without words, her violin speaks to our hearts and helps us think about the meaning of these hymns.
May we all find ways to express our love for God that feel true to who we are. As we do, our lives can become like a song of praise, bringing glory to God and touching the hearts of those around us.
