As a non-believer, I am completely moved by this and while I'm not ready to accept I can't deny the spirit I feel while hearing and watching this amazing performance. If this is the 'holy spirit' inciting tears to run down my face then so be it - and I thank you! This is outstanding. To have been surrounded by these talented singers and raised up from my seat as so many have been in the video must've been a unforgettable moment.

Lord I thank you for this video. Who else comes here to watch this anytime this song comes into mind?

[naturalista]

Imagine what Heaven will be like! Spectacular!

The Aeolians of Oakwood U are the gold standard of choral singing.

I sang in the Aeolians and this was my favorite to sing.

Heaven came down in this Sanctuary, to God be the glory

[christinemerritt]

“Prone to wander, Lord I feel it, Prone to leave the God I Love,
Here’s my heart, Lord, take and seal it,
Seal it for Thy courts above.

I can’t ever not cry at this part.
I cry and cry and cry.
I couldn’t be able to sing this so flawlessly.
This is just a taste of Heavenly Glory!!
I LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!!💖♥️💗❤️

This is what I envision singing in heaven sounds like

[moragmacgregor]

“Oh to grace how great a debtor”
Asking for your help, Lord, though I don’t deserve your blessing.
Asking for the prayers of those good souls who read these words.
Asking God to bless every soul in this world.

I am sitting here in the First Baptist Church, Clinton OK, listening to this version after rehearsing it on our organ. I think one of the things that moves me so much is the exuberance shown on the faces and the joy exhibited on the congregations faces. I know this recording is 6 or 7 years old, but I think it is the best! I have listened and watched the Tabernacle Choir and it doesn’t come close. Praise God from whine all blessings flow!

[kwartngampofo]

I’ve heard this song and even this version a THOUSAND times, but for some reason on this Sabbath evening it’s taking me to a place I haven’t been before. All I can say is TO GOD BE THE GLORY!! Happy Sabbath

[ntombenhlegwala]

Its true that when we worship, Angels come down and worship with us - that's the only explanation for this excellence!!!

[otshepengdipone]

I pray to God that one day I will worship at Oakwood college the Mecca of black adventism.

[amapparatistkwabena]

No one has done this better.
No choir in the world comes close.
Das ist die Wahrheit. Punkt. Amen.

[brettmiller]

I was bawling while I was watching this. Loved it.

[Exumaborn]

I was a member of the Bethune Cookman Concert Chorale. I have to say I’ve listened to this rendition about 20 times and each time I’m moved to tears. This is so anointed 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

[Ellenmdawes]

Sounds like heaven!! There is no place like Oakwood!!

[virtualsolomon]

Let's see. I have listened to this 15 times now. No plan to stop. How can that many incredible singers be in one place at one time? Even if you are not a Christian, I don't see how people could not be moved by this ! If they ever perform this as a reunion group again, I will drive down there from Virginia to hear it. What a blessing ! Thank You !
And I don't even know what an Ebenezer is and I don t care :)

[MrAjomase]

I am totaly moved when I listen to this version of the "Fount" As a keyboardist myself, I perk up especially when the organist plays that and again when some the sisters in the congregation completely lets the spirit cause them to scream with the joy that they did. This rendition also makes joyful tears come to mine eyes. Amen!!
