Just over 10 years ago at the WDS for the ICOC family of churches in San Antonio. This recording just has the singer microphones - but hearing the 18K voices all around singing was an unforgettable moment.

Amazing song, so surreal. After much searching I learned this was originally written with 11+ verses. For unknown reasons it did not include the verse “On Zion’s Glorious Summit Stood.” I love this song so much, I searched high and low to find this. If you are reading this I’m sure you feel the same way!! Here they are: Original title: THE SONG OF THE REDEEMED IN HEAVEN. 1 BEHOLD the saints beloved of God! Washed are their robes in Jesus' blood; Brighter than angels, lo, they shine, Their glories splendid and sublime! 2 Through tribulation great they came, They bore the cross, and scorned the shame; Now in the living temple blessed, With God they dwell, on Him they rest. 3 Hunger they ne'er shall feel again, Nor pain, nor thirst shall they sustain; To wells of living water led, By God the Lamb for ever fed. 4 While everlasting ages roll, Eternal love shall feast the soul; And scenes of bliss, for ever new, Rise in succession to their view. 5 Here, all who suffered sword or flame, For truth, or Jesus' lovely name, Shout victory now, and hail the Lamb, And bow before the great I AM. 6 Jesus, the Saviour, is their theme; They sing the wonders of His name; To Him ascribing power and grace, Dominion and eternal praise. 7 To Him who loved them to the end, Their surety, sacrifice, and friend; To Him who washed them in His blood, And made them kings and priests to God! 8 "Amen," they cry, "tis He alone, Who rightly fills His Father's throne, To Him be glory;" and again Repeat His praise, and say, "Amen!" 9 Oh! sweet employ, to sing and trace Th° amazing heights and depths of grace! To spend, from sin and sorrow free, A blissful, vast eternity! 10 Oh! what a grand, exalted song, When every tribe and every tongue, Redeemed by blood, with Christ appear, and join in one full chorus there. 11 My soul anticipates the day; Would stretch her wings and soar away, To aid the song, the palm to bear, And bow, the chief of sinners, there.

This is a favorite memory of mine. The sound of that last note being sung, the crescendo, the fade -- 17,000 people in quiet worship on unison together. It was amazing. I sang under Marcus's direction in Houston for a few years earlier. How wonderful to see this moment here for me to revisit. Thank you Brian.
