Lyrics
Last night I lay asleeping
There came a dream so fair,
I stood in old Jerusalem
Beside the temple there
I heard the children singing
And ever as they sang,
Methought the voice of Angels
From Heaven in answer rang
"Jerusalem, Jerusalem!
Lift up you gates and sing,
Hosanna in the highest.
Hosanna to your King!"
And then methought my dream was chang'd
The streets no longer rang
Hush'd were the glad Hosannas
The little children sang
The sun grew dark with mystery,
The morn was cold and chill
As the shadow of a cross arose
Upon a lonely hill
"Jerusalem, Jerusalem!
Hark! How the Angels sing,
Hosanna in the highest,
Hosanna to your King!"
And once again the scene was chang'd
New earth there seem'd to be,
I saw the Holy City
Beside the tideless sea
The light of god was on its streets
The gates were open wide,
And all who would might enter
And no one was denied.
No need of moon or stars by night,
Or sun to shine by day,
It was the new Jerusalem
That would not pass away
"Jerusalem! Jerusalem
Sing for the night is o'er
Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna for evermore!"

I am not even a Christian, I'm Hindu. But I am a slave of music, be it whatever. She is something, I've never seen before or had the grasp of her immense talent. She is a sight to behold, and a pure pleasure to listen. God bless her heart, as she is singing to God. Different names, same place...!

[@bertusreynolds6849]

Jesus left earth 40 days after crucifiction, to prepare a new Jerusalem that will never pass!!! Anybody who accepts him as his only God and repent his sins, has a ticket into the new Jerusalem!!!! It is so good to have a living God Jesus Christ.

[@mariemulrooney9116]

Thank you so beautiful ❤️

[@Theofficialmaka]

Music brings us together!!!!

[@brookekramer8591]

Amen

My dad taught me this song while he played his baby grand piano back in the late 60’s. I was only 4 years old. I would perform this song in front of his guest. He taught me to sing as if I were an opera singer at an early age. He’s gone home to be with the Lord. If he were here, he would be grinning from ear to ear. This is one of the most wonderful renditions of the Holy City I have ever heard. The piece was composed magnificently!! The young men and women sang with enthusiasm and from their hearts! The pianist performed marvelously, and the director was splendid!! I’m subscribing to your music to stay on top of your performances. Please keep up the amazing work!! Watching this video makes me so proud and brings back so many memories of my childhood days with my wonderful dad. ❤❤❤

[@roystewart4386]

Beautiful voice giving praise to the King of Kings.

[@ninanethery1502]

Our former church organist, now deceased, loved this song and would play it for the congregation often. This young woman has an outstanding voice.

[@JustineWittich]

Sang this in our country church every Easter many many years ago. This setting, and her magnificent voice, gave me chills. Can't hear it enough

[@bh9225]

Wow! Imagine having her in your parish choir? God is good! She is truly blessed beyond belief.

[@jimmymalone9139]

No shes catholic. We dont do choir shit

[@dorismartir316]

🎉No parish can afford her. Her net worth is staggering which means she makes a lot of money singing in concerts.

[@amytoby2566]

I pray you may come to salvation in the Lord Jesus Christ. He died for you, so you/we may have eternal life. No-one else can save you from eternal darkness. Only Jesus. No-one comes to the Father except through Jesus Christ. Just think of it. The Living God of the Bible was first before any other faith or religion. Any religion thereafter is made-up and false. Follow the God of the Bible for your salvation. Pray for Jesus to reveal Himself to you and He will for He is a LIVING GOD!

[@wandamiller6167]

No matter how many times I hear this young lady sing I always get chills. She has such a powerful voice!

[@REALUScitizen]

So very beautiful, GOD-driven (the GOD of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob). She enunciates every word and and no mike right at her mouth! Pray for the peace of an undivided Jerusalem!

Young lady, I first became acquainted with her when she was younger 13. I believe the language she sang in was Welsh. I didn't understand a word of it, just that amazing universal voice!

This interpretation touches my soul. Not just her voice, but her radiant eyes. Her eyes radiate and shine as if she could really see the New Jerusalem.

[@paulakaochari4392]

I love, love it when she sings, 'Oh Holy Night' too. It's absolutely perfect.

[@bobneubauer3397]

To me, she is one of the world's great voices.

Charlotte, After all these years, I just have to comment: THIS is Still the MOST beautiful thing I have ever heard and seen! I have been a fan of yours from your beginning, and THIS is TOP!! I Pray that the Good Lord restore you to your Christian roots, and that you, and that orchestra, be THERE to sing this song when the New Jerusalem comes down to the New Earth after the Millennium: Rev 21:2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. God Bless you, Charlotte, and your family too. Always your #1 Fan, Jerry N.

[@margaretmunro1552]

I'm in agreement

[@BlossomFlowerGirl]

This is magnificent, the lyricist may have heard the voice of angels, but I have heard the voice of an angel here tonight. Listening to this lady singing gave me goose bumps, more than once. Truly, I sat spellbound, thank you for your wonderful God given talent. Greetings and good wishes from Australia.

[@error_404-x6y]

God please may I wake up tomorrow as Charlotte Church singing La Pastorella.

This is the best recording of this song I've ever heard! Great job Charlotte AND instrumentalists!

Oh Jerusalem, Jerusalem, Thou that killest the prophets and stonest them which are sent to thee. How often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not. Matthew 23:37

One of Wales's many gifts to the world ~ the voice of an angel, Charlotte Church.

[@ninanethery1502]

My heritage is Welsh- my maiden name is Williams. Wales is a beautiful country and I was fortunate enough to travel there in 2012. This young lady has a powerful voice and her singing gives one goosebumps.

[@bonanzajoe]

God can never get enough of that beautiful song and those who sing it.

[@arthurwebber-g4l]

The face and the voice of an Angel

[@aandy51x]

Definitely the Voice of an Angel, loved since I first heard her when she first started to sing

[@julievanderleest]

She has truly the most beautiful voice I’ve ever heard. I mean how does she move her mouth like that? I’ve tried and failed. Truly an incredible talent she has!

[@curedbytheonomy]

Don’t feel too bad! It’s caused by tension in the throat, jaw, and neck. It’s damaging the voice (and is a frequent problem in children who try to sound more adult). A natural vibrato occurs when the vocal chords are relaxed, not under tension. When you sing, you don’t want that “gospel jaw” occurring.

[@anazafiro1]

She’s going to ruin her voice singing with all that tension. Her mouth and jaw should not tremble like that.

[@EricBirky-ns8um]

My beloved mother was a gorgeous soprano a d I cried when she sang this. Miss church, thank you. What a stunning, praisful tribute

[@shintalamria5843]

I really love your voice, Charlotte! An angel’s voice. God bless you!

[@garyjohnston5845]

Dear Charlotte. The LORD GOD YHWH has commanded me to comment on your Divinely transcendant rendition of a heavenly hymn. In this case, it is your sublime performance of the Holy City. It is lovely to not only hear, but also behold you singing the Holy City in such a pure, beautiful and Divine way when you were a young lady. Wonderful! Praise GOD! It has been said that you sing like an angel. I feel you are one of GOD'S angels! Your eyes and face were radiant as you looked heavenward. You are a mature woman now and have been through many life experiences since then. Some would have been positive and others negative. We live in a very fallen world which can adversely affect us all. Things are not necessarily easy on the Earth. Having said that, it is true that you have been something of a wordly success singing cross over pop music. Nevertheless, your real calling from birth has always been to sing Holy music. For this is the musical genre you were sent to sing. Please know that you have Christian friends praying for you. We pray that you hear the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. We pray that our beloved Heavenly FATHER and the Lord Jesus Christ be with you, that through repentance and Divine Grace, you may be what you truly are, that is a Holy daughter of GOD. May the LORD help you manifest Divinity and Holiness in all you do. For this is your Heavenly calling on the Earth. GOD bless you Charlotte! Sent with brotherly love in Christ. 😊❤🙏
