"Praise Him with the sound of the trumpet: praise Him with the psaltery and harp. Praise Him with the timbrel and dance: praise Him with stringed instruments and organs." - Psalm 150:3-4

Briarlake’s original sanctuary organ was built by the Rueter Organ Company of Lawrence, Kansas in 1971. It was comprised of 1,867 pipes in four divisions: Great, Swell, Choir, and Pedal.

In 1991-1992, major refurbishings and additions were made to the organ by Schlueter Pipe Organ Company of Lithonia, GA, who maintains the organ. These included the new Ancillary division, new organ cases with the Trumpet En Chamade (left of baptistry), which was balanced by an Ensemble En Chamade (right of baptistry), as well as a new Aeolian-Skinner style console built to AGO (American Guild of Organists) standards.

The organ now has 62 ranks in five divisions: Ancillary, Swell, Great, Choir and Pedal. In all, the sanctuary organ contains 3,545 pipes, placing it among the 25 largest organs in Atlanta.
