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!"

Proud of my Scottish heritage when I have the ability to listen to this great performance in Native Scotland.

[@alex1chang1]

When hearing this wonderful song, you can't hardly see the Holy new Jerusalem descending from Heaven !!

[@anachunamuche1524]

Whenever I hear this melodious soul touching song, it reminds me that this wicked and perverse world is not my permanent home, and that I have a beautiful home in heavenly Jerusalem.

[@sarahwaldock3196]

So BEAUTIFUL AND WONDERFUL, MY FAITH IS GROWING, AND MY LORD JESUS IS IN CHARGE OF MY SOUL, MERCY AND FORGIVENESS, SHALL FOLLOW ME THE REST OF MY LIFE. THE ONLY DECISION I EVER MADE WAS TO AGREE JESUS IS MY LORD AND SAVIOR, WHEN JESUS SHOWED ME NOW IS THE TIME, I AGREE WITH JESUS THAT I WAS LOST WITHOUT JESUS

[@Victorpsns]

Tremendo

[@Irmarambaran]

Looks like they had one camera and rather than screw up by trying to do close ups, tilts and pans it was just better to shoot it with a wide shot - and get the audio right - which they did. Happy Easter!

[@finalwarningformankindlove3260]

Wow! My nest version

[@johngoodman8425]

try andre rieu and the platin tenors... way better imo

[@jomaliksomaliko1250]

Awesome indeed Glory to The Most High God in the Name of Jesus Christ Amen.

[@jimtrueblue99]

Really lovely until the very end, which is chaotic and noisy. The arranger should reconsider that finale.

[@yvieart]

Lovely rendition. Beautiful harmonies and complimentary voices of soloist. Recording equipment probably not top-notch, therefore I'm sure listening to this live performance was in many ways more enjoyable than this recording.

[@edwardlai172]

best

[@daniel791]

I hate when people clap too early.

[@sarahwaldock3196]

people didn't ought to clap religious music at all. It's about praise not being praised

[@missasinenomine]

I agree.

[@ellenravelli6254]

People are more acquainted with music

[@ekemeziejudith1266]

Thank you for responding Ekemezie

[@louisgerardin9575]

Je préfère l'interprétation de Jessye Norman pour sa puissance et surtout sa conviction...

[@earnside]

Jessye Norman was a sublime artist.

[@in2jc]

I'll always compare other versions to Jessye Norman's. I cant help it! Jessye is on a class of it's own. Sorry!

[@earnside]

Jessye Norman was a sublime artist who is greatly missed.

[@Jeavey]

the second girl swallowed her words about the cross! what a shame! the harmonies were awesome and the music was awesome and the voices were awesome. Too bad about the enunciation of some of the words,, because they were RUSHED. Someday maybe I'll see a perfect rendition! Guess they were nervous!

[@anonymoussinger2236]

Excuse me. Who do you think you are talking about!! That lady is my mother.

[@pookerville]

The singing was fantastic, but the camera work was a lamentable mess!
