01:13
when Dawn arrives in China you can hear
01:16
people praying they are rejoicing in the
01:19
great love that unites all the peoples
01:22
of the world these prayers soar over the
01:26
highest mountains and melt the ice off
01:28
the coldest hearts there is no more
01:32
bondage there are no more Wars hearts
01:37
receive blessings from above and
01:39
destinies are changed it's going to be
01:42
an excellent year for the harvest
01:58
Chinese people use poetry and songs to
02:01
express what is in their mind and hearts
02:03
the Canaan hymns
02:05
show an open-mindedness which is rarely
02:08
encountered in China the human voice is
02:11
able to convey the unique beauty of the
02:14
universe
02:25
Oh
03:07
anyone who wants to understand the
03:09
Chinese home church assemblies will want
03:12
to reflect on the hymns sung by its
03:14
members these hymns express the faith
03:18
testimonies and experiences of the
03:20
faithful and show the world the pure
03:23
innocence of all those who tread a rocky
03:25
path
03:55
in remote villages and prosperous cities
03:58
wherever there are Christians you will
04:00
hear joyful voices of the faithful
04:03
expressing their devotion through their
04:05
hymns
04:43
without instruments or the ability to
04:46
read words or musical scores these
04:49
peasants who are Christians are able to
04:53
sing dozens of hymns without ever taking
04:55
a rest these songs have been assembled
05:07
in what is called the Canaan hymns most
05:11
of the songs in this film are taken from
05:13
these 930 hymns
05:41
that are sung not only in the home
05:43
church assemblies but also in the
05:46
Chinese three-self churches some are
05:49
sung in chinese congregations all around
05:51
the world
05:59
Oh
06:40
- I think these hymns are God's grace to
06:43
the Chinese Church - yeah sure great for
06:46
the clean and hymns are God's guidance
06:47
to the Chinese Church they are great
06:51
inspiration to us all
06:52
hands Allah shows I have sung the Quran
06:54
he's since I was a child
06:56
tell me tell me Joe the hymns racing and
06:59
mostly from the cannon hymns toward you
07:01
- Union got intellectual I think the
07:03
Canaan hymns are God's gifts to the
07:05
Chinese people when I see Humes
07:07
translated from other languages I feel
07:10
that I'm walking into the kingdom of God
07:12
now it's like God walks into our hearts
07:14
and takes care of all armies through the
07:17
Canaan hymns he encourages us when we
07:19
are weak he strengthens us when we lose
07:22
hope he gives us power when we need it
07:25
he guides us with these hills so I think
07:28
the cane and hymns are absolutely right
07:30
for the Chinese Church they touched me
07:33
very deeply
07:39
on what
07:48
whatever facing
07:56
2020 you son
08:07
Schwartzel Chelsea too heavy one day
08:10
when I was feeling weak and tired I him
08:13
flew into my heart it was amazing I
08:16
suddenly had strength again and
08:18
continued to walk through the hills I
08:20
was able to continue preaching the
08:23
gospel
08:31
what he is such an artist when I heard
08:33
two hymns for the first time I was
08:36
surprised I felt that they could be
08:38
created only through the inspiration of
08:41
the Holy Spirit
08:51
a single will be difficult even for a
09:02
doctorate student from Beijing
09:04
University to write such lyrics I know
09:06
no student from my school the Central
09:09
Music Academy who can write music like
09:11
this
09:18
it's hard to believe that all the
09:21
melodies and lyrics of the Kanan hymns
09:24
were written by a peasant girl named
09:26
shall mean a girl who can't even read
09:29
music xiaomin grew up in a little
09:39
village in Hunan what sorta like I was
09:42
born into a family of farmers
09:44
my parents are simple farming folks
09:47
mother never went to school and my dad
09:50
study for only a year - he barely reads
09:53
those they were very poor so men dad
09:57
foster home Jo so that had him we were
10:02
going to give shaman away when she was
10:04
about 10 days old but a big flood came
10:07
the day she was due to be taken away her
10:10
father it was God's blessing to our
10:12
families at home cut it off Sheila
10:15
Josiah said it ballroom with him
10:18
personally
10:19
Ola sisters while I was in junior high I
10:22
suffered sinus infections every day
10:25
about noon I felt dizzy and nauseous I
10:28
couldn't finish the day soon I just quit
10:31
school altogether
10:44
last year I participated in the
10:47
recording of the Canaan hips I was
10:50
working with a choir and musicians of
10:52
the Chinese ballet Orchestra when they
10:55
finished recording everybody was
10:57
clapping and guessing which master roll
11:00
those hips they couldn't believe when I
11:03
told them all these hymns were written
11:05
by someone who didn't even finish junior
11:07
high school they thought I must be lying
11:10
or joking
11:22
what I said Mia now her to tratado can
11:24
you wanna listen I said to show me God
11:27
is the creator of everything on earth I
11:29
said you must put your trust in God
11:32
you'll be healed come to church with me
11:34
this evening dr. Tucker watch - when she
11:37
shared the gospel with me I felt sure
11:39
there was a creator of heaven and earth
11:41
often I sat down and look at the sky
11:44
since the birds the flowers with trees
11:48
the grass and the fields in my heart I
11:53
knew all these were the works of a
11:55
creator but I didn't know who he was and
11:59
what his name was
12:00
so when my aunt told me the good news of
12:02
the gospel I knew very clearly oh it's
12:06
him doth honor your weight on it she
12:08
came to my house so really that I hadn't
12:10
even finished my dinner auntie she said
12:13
hurry up let's go to church so I said
12:16
alright
12:17
thankfully she became a Christian what
12:22
shifty after the first couple of
12:24
meetings I felt a difference in my body
12:26
I said Oh Lord I've longed for a true
12:30
God I do believe you will heal me you
12:33
will change my life
12:53
you
13:15
Sarah Harrison puja Runa I rely upon me
13:18
repel off your bed when she first became
13:20
a Christian we didn't understand what
13:23
was going on we were worried and we
13:26
didn't want her to go out - with your
13:28
better janitor than Tommy you did you
13:30
fat day what I wish I could at first I
13:32
went to church without telling my family
13:34
where I was going because they were
13:37
against it especially my brother he was
13:40
strongly against it and gave me a hard
13:42
time the brothers and sisters in church
13:45
were so precious and they deeply loved
13:48
each other they were so sincere and
13:51
honest so I decided to follow Jesus the
13:56
Holy Spirit touched me the moment I
13:58
consecrated myself to God that's when I
14:01
sent my first hand it was at the end of
14:03
1990 I need you boys yeah
14:09
I told
14:19
I told you TC
14:26

14:38
yes my warranty
14:46
why
14:56
while I know why
15:01
woman the hearts yard
15:06
possible what is it at first I taught my
15:09
hams to a young sister in my village
15:11
then she taught someone else when people
15:15
ask her where she learned the ham she
15:17
sang she answered from show me how can
15:20
you tell me right it's beautiful hymns
15:22
she never goes anywhere and she doesn't
15:24
talk much
15:25
woman she always hides in the corner -
15:28
in church meetings they thought it was a
15:30
strange thing sits for then when they
15:32
started singing dois what's on me away
15:40
attention Leo wore tight to mom monk
15:46
even high tone she wore tall she did
15:53
some time in tanta Kishore deeply moved
15:55
they said to the Lord Lord how green you
15:59
are you didn't abandon us
16:01
we're dust we're no better than worms
16:04
and mouths but you took pity on us you
16:08
cared for us and chose us
16:10
they were so deeply touched that they
16:13
started looking for the hymn writer
16:15
let's haul they discover that it was me
16:17
Oh toto dollars dae-ho do try yoga but
16:22
when they pass midnight I heard somebody
16:25
singing i sat up and listened but I
16:29
didn't know who it was she never told me
16:32
I heard about it from others I heard a
16:35
troll quack fine
16:37
try appear to give a short Santiago he
16:41
wasn't ready yet a lot one day when I
16:42
went to church someone asked me do you
16:45
know who wrote these two hymns your
16:47
sister still mean I didn't believe it
16:49
later on many people told me the same
16:52
thing
16:53
precio didn't believe them one year she
16:56
came back to visit from Beijing and went
16:58
to our church with me she told me
17:00
believing God faithfully these hymns are
17:03
cause inspiration to me
17:05
then I knew what they told me was true
17:08
see if it weren't for this true God how
17:12
could she have come up with those
17:13
inspiration hymns they always were
17:16
forbidden just a matter fella P it's
17:19
just you know it has to be that God
17:21
inspired her I don't care how talented
17:23
she is maybe she could have come up with
17:26
9 or 10 hems on her own never so many
17:30
it's a wonderful God it's a guidance of
17:34
God
17:54
I'll call the show the team water so
17:57
often during prayer time quiet time sir
18:02
time of meditating on God's Word the
18:05
Holy Spirit would come and bring me a
18:06
verse or two usually within five or ten
18:09
minutes I'll be singing the hymn with
18:11
melody and lyrics you're cooking with me
18:21
when I teach a new song to the
18:23
congregation
18:23
some brother says sisters quickly write
18:26
down the music
18:32
later xiaomin was given a little
18:35
recorder she records what comes into her
18:38
mind whether it's day or night
18:40
later she writes down the words and
18:42
someone else writes down the scores
18:52
during walks in the field or during
18:55
prayer meetings xiaomin finds
18:57
inspiration from the world around her
18:59
her heart is always open to being
19:02
touched by the Lord
19:30
Oh
19:37
Oh
20:00
the Canaan hymns came down to this
20:02
golden land from the deep blue sky they
20:06
are an eternal gift from the timeless
20:08
beauty of the heavens a gift of love to
20:11
those who inhabit our precious earth
20:13
these hymns written by a peasant girl
20:16
had spread over the immense land of
20:19
China in the blink of an eye
20:29
oh hi
21:02
oh what a meanie in waiting nice and
21:09
warm
21:24
we once were on mission to the tribal
21:27
villages in the province of Yunnan oh
21:29
they are we needed inspiration from the
21:31
hymns more than ever when we were
21:33
feeling hopeless and week it was Tommy's
21:36
hymns that gave us strength Gong on to
21:39
Apanui for sure - oh when I first became
21:41
part of this team brothers and sisters
21:44
were singing the hymn you are the only
21:46
one who treats me like a human being
21:48
where did this hymn come from it was
21:51
amazing it came from God every time I
21:55
sinned it tears fill my eyes one evening
21:59
I was singing by myself Lord you've
22:02
chosen me tears were pouring from my
22:04
eyes
22:27
second thought enrollment one morning
22:30
there were many of us praying together
22:31
some brothers and sisters hadn't seen
22:34
each other for a long time
22:36
so they missed each other very much they
22:38
were all crying I didn't know why I was
22:41
crying too
22:58
what a session meant a lot more to women
23:00
since I started praying to God I said
23:03
lord if it weren't for you and your love
23:07
at Calvary without your precious blood
23:10
we never would have come together as
23:12
brothers and sisters I felt an intense
23:15
gratitude toward God I said oh lord
23:17
thank you so very much the words think
23:21
you brought about this man
23:37
Oh

24:43
wanted to meet her after we met we found
24:46
out that she just as ordinary as the
24:48
rest of us uh what gosh Allah I know
24:51
that God is working through me think
24:53
about it I'm a girl who's didn't even

24:57
before the Lord and say Lord if you
25:00
didn't use me and inspire me I'm gonna
25:02
be able to write a single word
25:16
once thorny autumn evening I was on my
25:19
way to a meeting when a thought came
25:21
into my mind oh lord please hold our
25:24

27:21

27:29
spiritual connection between her and God
27:33

like to be the messenger of love the
37:29
Lord has chosen me to be his messenger
37:32
for a needy generation brother Trejo you
37:41
who are what we are none of a deal
37:43
agility there are you heed when she was
37:46
back home from jail
37:47
I saw a bruise on her nose I asked her
37:50
what had happened she said she got beat
37:53
up
37:54
I was hot-tempered back then and I
37:56
wanted to straighten this out with the
37:58
warden but shaman said let it go uncle
38:02
don't worry about it anymore
38:11
just one a whistle you said you would
38:13
actually I didn't suffer as much as the
38:16
other brothers and sisters they're
38:18
experiencing in jail their testimonies
38:21
and their service to God have given you
38:24
so much strength they're truly the
38:27
servants of Christ I'm sure they would
38:29
give up their lives for him
38:58
politi
38:59
automates your fortunately many people
39:02
don't understand us
39:03
they say why do you leave home I run
39:06
around like this especially now we have
39:08
children and have to leave them behind
39:11
sometimes people misunderstand us saying
39:13
you're disobeying the teaching of the
39:16
Bible then I would pray silently Oh Lord
39:19
if everyone stays home how would those
39:22
who need through the gospel there was a
39:49
time I was quite lonely and nobody
39:52
seemed to understand me
39:53
one time I was walking on a narrow lane
39:56
it was very quiet and no one was around
39:59
that's when I sense the Holy Spirit
40:01
saying to me you're not alone Jesus is
40:04
with you no matter how much you've been
40:07
wronged and suffered no matter where you
40:09
go Jesus will always be with you he will
40:13
always walk beside you so I started
40:16
singing to these what we to see anything
40:21
boy
40:23
- you sure what it
40:46
to be honest there have been moments we
40:50
were discouraged but we would never say
40:53
I would stop believing that maybe it's a
40:56
lord I'd like to take a break from
40:59
sharing the gospel let me stay home and
41:02
still believe in you truthfully
41:05
we've all had similar thoughts there are
41:09
too many souls at stake I know God has
41:12
put a love for my country in my heart
41:15
Psalm 33 says blessed is the nation
41:19
whose God is the Lord when I read this I
41:23
thought of my own country for so many
41:25
years and generations it has been caught
41:28
up in the fire and smoke of wars with so
41:31
lord please watch over China
41:34
I believe when our nation turns to you
41:37

41:42
me to lift up my hands in prayers to the
41:44
Lord for China

42:18
assembly was overtaken by the song they
42:20

42:26
highest to the lowest let them all turn

43:19
barren land of 960 thousand square
43:23
kilometers
43:24
the gospel is moistening every inch like
43:27
the gentle rain of spring until she in
43:39
the spring festival party hosted by CCTV
43:43
broadcast live to the whole country a
43:46
song I love my home performed by a
43:49
Christian family was very well received

Handel's Messiah had an impressive debut
44:30
performance in Beijing
45:02
Jesus is walking on the land of China he
45:07
walks with grace and supreme power but
45:10
in simple clothes he walks into poor and
45:14
desolate villages through Main streets
45:16
and narrow lanes
45:24

45:27
people among them is the singer shall

pulse of 70 million Chinese Christians
