This performance of Mack Wilberg's arrangement of Come of Thou Fount was just glorious by two fine group of singers. It was very heart moving bringing tears to my eyes.

The Morehouse College Glee Club is so awesome! They have performed in so many different capacities on campus and around the world!! Together with the Atlanta Master Chorale, both singing organizations should be brought together to collaborate in song again or just make it an annual event!! :)

That ending though! Beautiful. Great harmony. “Prone to wonder Lord I feel it!” As the apostle Peter said “Lord where would we go, You have the word of life”.

Lovely, You said it perfectly

Great arrangement and absolutely awesome performance by two really phenomenal choral ensembles! My congratulations to all who were involved! I hope you will record more of the same! The world needs such beauty at the present time! And together we raise our voices in praise of our God and Father!

Wonderful

Just magical and inspiring with a wonderful depth.

Beautifully sang and played by the organist. Beautiful organ as well. However, it sounded a little like the wind pressure wasn't regulated. It seemed to sag a few times. I'm sure this was recorded digitally so i can't imagine it would be the recording.

I love that Hymn. Wilberg’s orchestration is wonderful.

[@tonyercolano2670]

What amazing reverence and talent!

[@mykkie100]

Great performance ! Today's organists seem to want to drown out viable parts of the music by overdoing the bass. The windows do not have to shatter .

[@mccpz]

No, but it's nice to think they might! :)

[@jv04jm]

I don't think that happened here at all! Great organist, sensitively accompanied.

[@dandorty6889]

Excellent performance and the organist chose tasteful, clear, and supportive registrations - simply divine!

[@tlhhappyvoice1]

This is so beautifully orchestrated. I cried and cried with joy it was so beautiful- a song sung to the most holy Savior Jesus Christ my Lord.

[@robbutcher9503]

There are many versions of this hymn on the internet, but this presentation is both beautiful and extraordinary. Absolutely amazing. Thank you.

[@neiljosephbennett9119]

So many renditions of this extraordinary piece out there, but THIS one stands way above all of them!!!

[@mikelinder1286]

I love this rendition but I also Mack directing his choir- The Tabernacle Choir. They are outstanding also.

[@lyricalaska]

Lovely performance! Kudos to all!

[@kellydunn2528]

This hymn, this choir, makes my heart pound.

[@carolemosher1186]

Why do the women hold music but not the men?

[@maryorr3144]

Beautiful !

[@orpheus1180]

Just a tad fast...

[@rouxtube101]

Absolutely beautiful. Makes one wonder why the Atlanta Chorale doesn't include more people of color.
