[@chrisparsons6979]

[@MarieHannan-nv3ci]

Never heard of him until I tuned into u tube what a fantastic voice I'm from Dundee Scotland beautiful

[@JoaneLowe-pf1hg]

Such a beautiful voice... Sung to perfection... Will always be a Christmas favourite... 🎄 🤗

[@buddhacook1087]

Is it even possible for David to sing this even better in 2021. No one sings it quite like David Hobson.❤❤❤ My dads favourite song & he could belt this song out too.👍

[@garyjohnstone6422]

David is a world class operatic tenor. Range is enthralling. A great belter too. Power plus and tonal control is pitch perfect. He would star in any broadway show.

[@jameshadjakis5049]

Agree! Merry Christmas :)

Wonderful ‼️‼️ 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 your gates and sing, Hosanna in the highest. Hosanna to your King!" And then methought my dream was chang'd The streets no longer rang Hushed 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 changed New earth there seemed 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!"

[@SHARKTIC5]

Love the hope of THE NEW EARTH.

What a sweet voice! Watching this on the Eve of the Epiphany, 2021, during Lockdown.

[@buddhacook1087]

I hope that u had a blessed Christmas & weren't in Lockdown. My thoughts, especially, to those who could not join with their families this year to celebrate. May 2022 be a better year than the last 2 Christmas's🙏❤

[@MandyJMaddison]

@@buddhacook1087 Thank you for your wishes, and may God bless you in the New Year!

[@nogaspains]

One of my first LPs I purchased as a child back in the 1950's was a recording of this song. I still love it and even more with David performing it.

[@MrBobbygb]

What a wonderful voice. Magnificent rendition of Holy City. Love it!

[@beverlybradford4946]

What a superb rendition of The Holy City!

[@W0367355]

Wouldn't be Christmas without this song.

[@kellyjshaw85]

Rachel is he not doing them this year?

[@shanade21]

Totally agree with that statement Tabitha Strickland. David Hobson and Bing Crosby are the voices of Christmas. David singing Holy City and Bing singing The littlest angel.

[@W0367355]

Beautiful , What a voice, Thank God for such a talented person, I Love this song.

[@normanpoole9439]

[@odilondasilvarocha]

The most beautiful hymn of them all! Listen, too, to Mahalia Jackson with Percy Faith. O mais belo hino de todos, também tem extraordinária gravação com Mahalia Jackson acompanhada da orquestra e coral de Percy Faith. Extraordinário.

[@joanheiman8027]
