Homeward Bound | BYU Vocal Point ft. The All-American Boys Chorus

[@MaryAnn-yo6kt]

I always told my youngest son I wanted this played at my funeral. Then he passed away suddenly. I play this now to celebrate him and the mission he is serving in the eternities.

[@kelly-christloves]

Oops!! A very sad one but may God heal you and give you peace again in Jesus namee! Amen.

[@PeterHollens]

I CANT STOP WATCHING THIS IT IS SOOOOO GOOOOD.

[@connorfrederick5735]

+Peter Hollens Please do a version of this yourself. PLEASE

[@vocalpointbyu]

Thanks, Peter! We're still loving the idea of collaborating with you at some point! :)

[@gracenicholas964]

Oh My Gosh I know right! This is so fantastic! It is just so awesome and so relaxing. The voices are so amazing!😊

[@katiehanna90]

+BYU Vocal Point PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE MAKE IT HAPPEN.

[@onegold1042]

Do a cover on it

[@StacyStellar]

My oldest brother unexpectedly passed away a few months ago. He was only 34 years old, a corrections officer. He left behind 6 children, a wife, 6 siblings, parents and countless friends and family. I stumbled upon BYU when I was looking for a version of Danny Boy for his funeral and found the BYU version and this song, both of which were played at the funeral. I just wanted to say thank you for sharing these beautiful songs, it meant so much to me and to my family during such a difficult time. Listening to it still brings me comfort. Thank you!

[@SLICEmeOJup]

Beautiful music, May your brother Rest In Peace.

[@dennisyates2904]

I too have lost two older brothers and find comfort in this. May God keep his memory close to heart for all of you and thank you for sharing his story with us all. Music for me also heals and in the legacy of us that live on a wee bit longer may we find comfort to know they have not left us but they will come home again and greet us once more where death can never again take them from us. God bless. Love Dennis. xxx

[@yassification7067]

34 with 6 kids? Damn

[@isabellemunsterman5942]

I'm so sorry, that's a lot to go through, you'll see him soon

[@detnee896]

May your brother Rest In Peace and one day you will see him in heaven💙

[@keesklaver9153]

Little boys...Big boys....singing together...so great!

[@vocalpointbyu]

😂

[@springnsunshine]

I lost my sister. It was sad. I've never cried like I did. Then I turned to this song and it described exactly what it felt to let her go. She went to be with the Lord. She let go of all those burdens and she just went when we thought she'd live doing the will of God. I won't bind her to the plow.... I've set her free.

[@ДианаСевастьянова-л6ч]

Lead singer has one of the finest voices I've heard in a long time.

[@vocalpointbyu]

That's our man Jordan Hales! Really amazing guy! ☺

[@jessielin79]

I looooove this. Reminds me of my sweet brother who passed 11 years ago. 💔

[@GoldFrontz]

Much love to you and your family

[@AJMWriter]

I sang this in a choir at NAU Music Camp with a young woman who I kept in touch with for a few years until I started college. We exchanged letters and always kept this song close to our hearts. We started dating, eventually married, and now, 17 years after I told her how I felt, have 2 beautiful children. This brought some tears, but of true happiness and gratitude. Thank you Vocal Point. =)

[@Don.957]

Glory to Almighty God!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 I ask Jesus to bless you all on this beautiful mission and many people can be touched by the Holy Spirit! God bless you all!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@debrarosenblum9055]

I so understand, lost my brother to covid😥... We need you JESUS💞💓💞

Who ever is responsible for putting this All American Boys Choir together, really knows their business ! Master of Music / Choir

[@bellajohnson3137]

Graduation was already five years ago... Gosh, It feels like yesterday that we performed this song🥺😭💖

[@elliottwalker8624]

I am part of the Boys Chorus. I joined a little while after this video was filmed, and we are doing a concert with them this month!

[@vocalpointbyu]

+Elliott Walker - Hey Elliott! We feel honored to have the opportunity to perform with you again soon! Can't wait to meet you and the rest of the new members. :)

[@elliotinthewild]

+Elliott Walker AYYY Elliott! It's Elliot Masinsin, your friend from Chorus :)

[@elliottwalker8624]

Oh hi Elliot :)

[@carterfoerch4556]

LUCKY! I wish I could be in this choir. Just out of curiousity if you get this, where do you rehearse and how can someone audition?

[@Timeshifter77]

Go to American Boy Choir online & contact them. Hope you see this. Good luck to you!

[@AdolfoGarcia-v9q]

This will forever be my favorite song. We used to sing it in choir while i was in highschool. I used to be very reserved and quiet so even when i wanted to connect with other i never could. Only when everyone sang together was i able to pretend like i befriended everyone. This song holds a bitter sweet nostalgia whenever it plays. Part of me hopes to reunite with the other classmates while another wishes to continue to live out life as if the past never happened. I may no longer be that quiet and awkward kid anymore but a part of me misses those simpler times.

[@bonnietisdale4072]

I’m a Veteran and today at a school the children sang this for us. Brought my to tears

[@Ala11334]

You guys sure know how to sing. Well done good and faithful servants!

[@debrarosenblum9055]

Lift your voices and sing GODS GLORY💞💓💞

[@mahonraibonaobra2453]

In the quiet misty morning When the moon has gone to bed, When the sparrows stop their singing And the sky is clear and red, When the summer's ceased its gleaming When the corn is past its prime, When adventure's lost its meaning - I'll be homeward bound in time Bind me not to the pasture Chain me not to the plow Set me free to find my calling And I'll return to you somehow If you find it's me you're missing If you're hoping I'll return, To your thoughts I'll soon be listening, And in the road I'll stop and turn Then the wind will set me racing As my journey nears its end And the path I'll be retracing When I'm homeward bound again Bind me not to the pasture Chain me not to the plow Set me free to find my calling And I'll return to you somehow (louder) Bind me not to the pasture Chain me not to the plow Set me free to find my calling And I'll return to you somehow

[@lyizaaa]

Благодарю 🙏

[@DirkMartens]

I feel in heaven when i listen to this. Perfect combination from kids and adults together. Thank you so much for sharing this with us

[@vocalpointbyu]

+Dirk Martens Thank you so much, Dirk!

[@bbennet39]

whats heavens address?

[@dannyboy6815]

I totally feel ya on that one dirk:) this song brings so much joy and light to my soul.

[@davidandrew5762]

it's address: John 14:6

[@cruzloera4931]

Even the scenary.

[@Lyraa357]

Heavenly Father as done this. Set us free upon the earth to find our calling. To return to Him. He gave us free will to choose.

[@cherrypop4094]

We sang this in choir I literally wanna cry 😭 it’s so beautiful

[@ifbpeanut]

This was my Aunt's favorite song. She passed away in May of 2010. My dad has my family sing it often. This is a beautiful rendition. You're all very talented. Thank you for this.

[@justvman1882]

Kelly Delaney so sorry for your aunt

[@mazeprodigyz5898]

Singing this song in choir right now for Spring concert. And it is SO awe inspiring and beautiful. It can make the cool, and most popular kids in school get teary and be moved by it. It's one of the most serene and peaceful piece I have to say I've ever done. It's a God given song that is sung by groups of angels sent by God to move and touch others

[@atienogoga1195]

The number of times I'm hearing the song..😄😄😄😄....beautiful rendition...Amen!😊...My prayer is that I'll be homebound for heaven even when I'm still here on earth... Anyone listening to this in 2019??

[@ezrayoungyen9611]

I still am! Love this rendition. Hits me in the feels everytime.

[@mapadelmundo7777]

The beginning sounds like a section of Jupiter by Gustav Holst, one of my favorite themes.

[@vocalpointbyu]

Mapa Mundial Good ear! If you watch this behind-the-scenes video, you'll hear McKay Crockett talk about using Jupiter in his arrangement of this song: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZfKpZesgqqNbbc

[@elizabethbrignone2903]

Mapa Mundial I thought it sounded a bit like Anthem to Our King

[@danieldekok6949]

Mapa Mundial It IS that tune--The intro is commonly known as a hymn tune called "Thaxted".

[@breanneanderson4686]

Mapa Mundial The opening also kind of reminds me of I Vow to Thee My Country. Love that song too.

[@danieldekok6949]

Same tune, Breanne.

[@a.walters123]

This is arguably, hands down, the most beautiful rendition of this song that I’ve heard. ❤️

[@jessklingsberg]

WOW!!! Sniff, sniff. Beautiful, amazing music. I LOVE the collaboration of the voices from the younger boys of The All-American Boys Chorus and the Vocal Point men... simply stunning. Bravo!!!

[@Halo_wood]

I remember my sister would sing this song often and now she’s in college and as soon as I heard this song it reminded me of how much I missed her I was hold back those tears

[@starlegends3092]

😭my sis is gone to collage too!!

[@rachelcroskery-roberts9506]

My son so enjoyed working with Vocal Point on this project. This AABC mom is grateful!

[@philgolson6306]

It is everything this piece could possibly be with the human voice. It is lavish, sumptuous in harmonic sonority, beautiful haunting turns of dissonance into hopeful resolution, and the boys' voices as a soaring ostinato? Sheer aural bliss. If you are not tearful, moved, or overwhelmed after wrapping yourself in this sonic masterpiece, you, my friend, have no soul. Once again, Vocal Point, you have produced a work of art.

[@aleknelson4808]

You hit the nail on the head. You have an excellent taste in music. Did you like the message behind the song??

[@stephenrichards4877]

absolutely

[@isabellemunsterman5942]

[@teresarodriguez2818]

I feel like travelling in space every time I listen to this amazing songs. Feels like angels are so near. Thank you for this uplifting song.

[@angiemassarella7159]

My man is a long haul truck driver & is gone for extended amounts of time, he sent me this song to listen to, I miss him so much when he can't be here with me....hearing this definitely helps!

[@vocalpointbyu]

Well thanks for sharing. We're very touched when people like you share stories like that.

[@thearmyflyer4905]

Not sure who gave this song a thumbs down but whoever did doesn’t know good choral music and a cappella. Well sung gentlemen, beautiful rendition of an awesome song

[@calebtroykyeremeh1441]

I know there is alot of problems with the interpretation of the bible I know this because i am a Seventh day Adventist but God is a being who loves all of us he is always wanting us to nurcher our natural gifts that he has given us all.He definitely has blessed you great singers with the mouths of angles i hope god impresses you too sing and praise him more and more

[@lilmizbluebird1368]

I listen to this song a lot. It's so beautiful and it comforts me when I'm feeling upset. Thank you to BYU Vocal Point and the All-American Boys choir for working together to make this moving piece of music!

[@kaleighbrendle8373]

There are those who Sing at an average level. Then there are those who are good. Then there are those who are great. Those who are amazing, fantastic, spectacular. And then those

[@katalcalls2831]

Just stopping by to say that I appreciate my music teacher for giving us this beautiful song for my senior year, miss you all Mr. Bowman

[@valerietwinn6406]

Me tooo they are sooooo really great! I'm going threw the worse time in my life at 58 the whole world in my court God is reconstructing every corner of it. And He's just showing me some of my new family due to my old family is now the passing dead. This is so renewing. Thank you

[@carinafernandez8187]

This song is my favorite among BYU vocal point's song. Through this song I no longer worry about my health for I know god will provide my healing.

[@christiejohnston8538]

This was sung at my 19 year old daughter’s funeral after she passed away in a car accident. Such a beautiful song.

[@henryk8675309]

The lead's voice is very pleasant listening. The sound of the All-American Boys Chorus is absolutely beautiful.

[@anniebaxter2010]

This was the piece of music I chose for my husband's funeral. It breaks my heart every time I hear it. So Beautiful.

[@avery5602]

This is my favorite song, and you guys sing it beautifully. I get chills every time.

[@d-dawgthetributesinger3898]

This song is the best I have heard. My uncle recently passed away and I want to sing this for him. He was 25 and had epilepsy and lost him unexpectedly.

[@Flamingerudostalion]

I think these lyrics are up for individual interpretation, but I took it to be sung by someone who has just passed away and is singing to his family that he'll see them again. In other words, when he says don't bind me to the pastures and plows (the mundane labors of mortality) but let me go and find my calling (the truth, and everything that awaits me in the next life / heaven), then I'll still come back to you and I'll hear your thoughts and we'll still be close somehow, and we'll still see each other again. It's a song of comfort to those of us who have been left behind.

[@akgwriting9481]

My grandpa died just last year a few days before his birthday and this song was one of his favorites. A friend of his played this before his passing and sent the spirit to us. Thank you so much Byu Vocal Point for doing this. The spirit was strong and I was reminded of Grandpa.

[@a.walters123]

Yep, I’m weeping. This is so incredibly beautiful. 🥲

[@yoredlodge1977]

[@cynthiaaaa5204]

Years ago, I spent a year in Georgia Children's Chorus, and we did a concert with the boys choir showcased in this video. Those boys are truly amazing vocalists. I was blown away when they performed a piece with overtones.

[@claudiakirchner600]

Schöne klare Stimmen, herrlich❗❤

[@carnivoredude]

Sooooooooo, why does this music video NOT have billions of views again?

[@karendarlan1834]

+Jacob Dunn hope ur not mormon. and this vid is pretentious. and it doesnt deserve a billion views

[@zeldadanielle]

+Karen Darlan how in the world is it "pretentious"? It can mean anything to anyone, but the meaning I got was a missionary missing his family but knowing he'd return when His work was done. It's baffling that you got "pretentious."

[@stephaniewesfall7485]

+ZeldaDanielle it's about a boy that ran away. I sang it in choir last year.

[@zeldadanielle]

+Stephanie Wesfall the song can mean anything to anyone, but someone who runs away doesn't plan to go home again. First hand experience with that.

[@smerdlife7571]

+Stephanie Wesfall actually its about a war veteran coming home to his family

[@silvanataylor6991]

Thank you so much for the great Music gives us a little Peace Silvie

You watch Vocal Point? My two worlds have officially collided. My head is spinning.

[@hazelroberts7792]

WOAH ITS CALEB, WHERES CHARLIE?!

[@ianmcgranahan1226]

Being in the military away from family for long periods of time, hearing this song made me break down. So beautiful and lovely. Thank you, God, for this music.

[@jatutuArno157]

This song meant so much for me, because as a Returned Missionary last year from the Great Texas Fort Worth Mission! 2 months before I’m done with my Mission and it was on a P-Day, I got a called from my Family on the Islands that My Mom had passed away on the night before and I was just didn’t know what to do or say. But I just kept going on with the Missionary work, and didn’t even tell my companion about it cuz I know it’s a big deal. I just try to focus on the work and keep my Mom words just to finish what I have been called to do. So 3 days later they finally informed the Mission office and the Mission President called us but this time my companion answered the phone and he got told that we need to meet up with the Mission President ASAP!. Then that’s when I let my Companion knows about it and he was so shocked and sad. But long story short I’m home now but idc about what anyone says about me and why I didn’t come home to my Mom or spend lot of time with her before she passed away. All I care and know it’s that I’ll be able to meet her one day and my Dad also. I have strong Faith in His Gospel! Peace and love from the Marshall Islands 🇲🇭!!

[@CitizenKDot]

You did very good!

[@myroselle6987]

You are loved!

[@Awesomesun1]

Beautiful testimony ❤ you are so blessed to have that tangible faith.

[@cynthiashores57]

You made your Mama proud! She let you know the right thing to do and YOU DID IT!!! OTHER PEOPLE'S COMMENTS ARE THEIR COMMENTS AND THAT'S ALL THEY ARE - NOT TO WORRY - STAY ON THE COVENANT PATH.

[@brofistbro]

Returned from Utah Salt lake city mission. English and Spanish. Helped in Midvale, Rocks spring, Wyoming, Murray, and rose Park Utah. And returned with honor, served all 2 years. And finally got my testimony. And felt heart broken leaving, but so happy being released by my president. And being within my parents embrace.🥲🫡 And heard this song thru out the whole time.

[@starlegends3092]

Duuuuuhuuuuuhuuuuuuudddd. Ok, this song has alwayse made me feel something deap inside like I came somehwere I miss and want to see some close forgotton person again. Ive alwayse been raised in the church but unfortunatly I didnt see it in a genuin way for alot of my yet short life. But I decited I needed to go for what I know deap inside which I trust more then the world, and it just went back to the church lol. And I found a website that has storys of what peopel have seen when they were dead but were able to cone back to life. And it was amasing to finally read about Home! And so Ive been working hard to have a more authentic relationship with God, and like alwayse He has been teaching me line apon line. And I know He is the kne I have wanted all this time. I dont even know if you know all of what is behind that. How much it realy means!! And so Im very happy to say that this song now feels more normal instead of some feeling i only feel when i listen. And I still have alot to learn. I still realy feel something when the lyrics say “bind me not!!” And im not suprised but still i want to learn specificky why I feel to taht so much. I know there is going to be amasing things in the future and I will find what my life search has been all about for sure!! :)

[@srhirs9111]

Thank you for the peace this song brings, it’s nice in this world.

[@rosshimer3526]

This song means so much to me I lost my grandma 4 years ago I think of her and one day I will see her again

[@brofistbro]

This song never left me. 🥲😊 I served in utah and a bit of wyoming. This was one of the songs in my mind in my head. Coulda sworn i heard it aloud. I still cry in the fact i completed mine. MANY instances i said enough. I can say my most esteemed companions were 1 of my reasons to keep going.

[@katieswanson4063]

This makes me think of the Prodigal Son🥺❤️

[@Orcamancer]

I just lost my friend last night. This song has helped with that pain. I know that she's happy and not in pain anymore. I know that she's back home with her heavenly father in heaven. Thank you for this.

We're so sorry for your loss. We hope that you can continue to find solace and we want you to know that we love you. Thank you for sharing with us. ☺

In... credible. I don't remember the last time a KZbin video made me cry that hard. This is beautiful beyond words. To God be the glory. Well done gentlemen... Well done.

[@linekedijkstra]

Aug. 2007 is mijn man overleden en bij de begrafenis is dit gespeeld door een violiste (zij speelt in het orkest van Andre Rieu) samen met een pianiste. Geweldig iedere keer als ik hem hoor moet ik weer huilen het grijpt me nog altijd aan.

[@elliotmasinsin819]

Ah... Beautiful. I'm a part of the All American Boys Chorus, and I completed a great achievement: I invited a boy to join us. This video is what I watch every day. It reminds me of all of the soldiers that come home from a war. I wish I were a part of this video, but I wasn't in the concert chorus at that time... Though I was in the BYU concert :)

[@jpomonis2329]

In 2012, I was sealed to my best friend and the love of my life. In Sept 2018, after I supported him through so much tribulation and even deployments, I learned he had an addiction so severe, that it was driving his actions-he was not progressing to be the person I know he can be. He filed for divorce and it shattered my heart into a million pieces. One month ago, after fighting it, I finally signed his divorce decree papers. One night, as I was bawling my eyes out and praying with so much sorrow, this song came on. The chorus caught my attention. The spirit calmed my heart and I knew God heard me and was aware of my trial. This song was Him telling me it will be OK. I’m making this comment here as a public record-to come back when my sweet husband is whole, well, and a force for good on this earth. When, together, we will teach and help others who are experiencing the same gripping addiction. I believe in the sealing power of the temple and I truly believe the power of the priesthood can make this song the case for my family.

[@vocalpointbyu]

Thank you so much for sharing that with us. It means so much to us and we fully believe as well that God is looking out for you. Much love. 💙 We will also pray for you!

[@anthonynettleton8346]

My chorus recently ended and this was all of our favorite song to sing so whenever I listen to this song it just gives me chills and makes me want to cry because joining that chorus was probably the best decision of my life because I met some lifelong friends there that I will cherish forever so I just wanted to say how much this song means to me

[@robinrekola3648]

love this good job glenn beck love your new song

[@doterraoilmom]

This tune has been stuck in my head for two days... I didnt remember where I had heard it, then listened to your version this morning, and remembered why it's stuck in my head... I talk to my son today, who has been in Mexico for almost 2 years. Thank you

[@theeconomychannel2889]

***** Me too! And yeah I agree!!!!

[@aleknelson4808]

I amglad you said so. I will never fall away from te true church of our savior jesus christ. I will carry his spirit with me always. #latterdaysaints

[@aleknelson4808]

I don't like to argue, but you and I both know, or I think we should know that we should be kind to everyone. You don't call somebody filth if they are expressing their belief. This country has the freedom of religion and the freedom of speech. If you think you can get away with calling people filth and still be righteous, you've got another thing coming. Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father will serve you justice. Just not what you expect. Is this how you teach people? through hatred???? You should pray and seek truth, not what you think is right! Jesus Christ is our savior!! Joseph Smith is a true prophet of God!!

[@aleknelson4808]

BTW, it's not trashing his name. You speaking to people this way is. I have one question. How can a 14-year-old boy who has a 1st-3rd grade education make up such things as the BOOK OF MORMON. You answer me that. HE WAS RESCUEDERNAL FATHER, HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON JESUS CHRIST, AND THE HOLY GHOST. NOBODY IN THE 1800'S COULD HAVE SPOKEN THAT LANGUAGE OR EVEN DREAMED OF IT. RESEARCH BOTH SIDES BEFORE YOU PERSECUTE ANOTHER!!!

[@purplecranberry._.5046]

Brings tears and chills every. Single. Time.

[@babybellca]

A truly inspired arrangement. I hear angels when all the voices crescendo at 3:07. The lyrics are a beautiful encapsulation of the purpose of our heavenly journey away from God and back to Him again. Thanks to Marta Keen for a timeless song, McKay Crockett for giving it wings, and Jordan Hale for shaping every word into transcendent beauty!

[@jshoyinka]

i dont listen to anything but acapella music from now on. its so beautiful

[@ourbriefhour7549]

I loved hearing McKay Crockett say the arrangement came together in his mind once he thought of the Jupiter chorale. To me, both pieces promise a beautiful future to a bittersweet present. They transform the pastoral setting from a hindrance to a sanctuary. It's a creative, moving pairing. Jordan Hale's performance is incredible. Each "Bind me not" gives me chills. Thanks for this video :)

[@anewvoice9712]

When I listen to their music, I almost think I hear angels singing alongside of them. This is the closest I've ever heard to heavenly music!

I'm a big fan of BYU Vocal Point!! I love your songs, your incredible musical arrangements and performance...very inspiring and touching!! I'd love to have you guys singing in Brazil!! That would be awesome.

[@richardlowry3058]

This song always draws me to those that have died and their great memories; encouraging me to love life and God. I think of my beloved parents, my first wife Anita, and even my deceased bosses and friends. They remind me of the fact that one day we will all leave this life, homeward bound to our loved ones.

[@vocalpointbyu]

That's a beautiful tribute. Thank you so much for sharing that thought with us. 💙🙏

[@shandrajones6462]

this song makes me think of someone who is dying and does not want you to be sad, because they’re just going back home to Heaven. “bind me not to the pasture, chain me not to the plow, set me free to find my calling, and I’ll return to you somehow.” is them saying that it is time to let them go, and not to worry because they’ll always be with you. Makes me wanna cry every time. 🥺

[@maryannmarquez8740]

I cry every time I hear it, I used to tell my son to play it at my funeral. Now he’s been in heaven. 7 years. It’s a beautiful song. I know he returns to look over me when he can.

[@Lorac73]

[@DustinMillsDefenderoflove]

God surely has a plan to let us free of all our restrictions and we shall find our little place where we can fully feel our spirit and our mortal man both commune together in a work so much worth the finding and the freedom that comes from find our callings. every ones is unique to find but it takes work and time separated from the ones we love. but we can always return to our loved ones. ALWAYS!!
