Enjoy listening to this over and over again.

The bald white guy and the African American lady are really feeling this hymn. beautifully sung by the way

[flybdavis]

The choir, congregation, pianist, and organist did a great job with this hymn. This is one of those hymns you sing with all of your heart and let the organ roar!!

[ralpheckardt]

What a splendid strong version of this prophetic hymn. May the vision of it become a reality sooner than later. God bless you who sing in faith and hope.

[Jake-nkwg]

Beautiful Anthem and nicely done!! Thank you for sharing. :)

[jonboyer]

The choir director looks very graceful

[badynwoodford]

This hymn sounds much more realistic metrically-speaking at 1.25 playback speed.

[djangopaine]

Top 5 hymns for sure. I wish more black churches could afford organs, a piano doesn’t do justice to its majesty.

Que Dios bendiga a todos hay Voces Angelicales que invitan a los Angeles a Cantar al Señor de Señores y Rey de Reyes:gozamos en Costa Rica.

Beautiful rendition of the Negro National Anthem written by James Wheldon Johnson.

I like it. More churches should sing it but it's sad anything ethnic has been made to be seen as bad. Anyone can embrace this song for the value to humanity and empathy it calls for.

[oleanderson]

A rousing choir version, so much better than a solo version where the soloist "works" it to the point of being intelligible. But I must say, it carries a lot more credibility when sung by a predominately black choir.

[dpodsful]

Just doesn't seem right without the red head in the choir!!

Weird thinking that singing songs is what gets you into heaven…or that heaven is real at all
