    This hymn is revered by Christians, Jews, Muslims, and even non-affiliated groups who love it for its beauty and feeling. Its called "The Holy City" and is performed by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, with 360 voices and 100 musicians and is sung by tenor Stanford Olsen.

    Enjoy! (I don't know how to transfer this file from YouTube)

    Thanks for posting the Hymn, Al!

    Actually, there are 2 versions of the performance, with the one with Olson wearing a white bow tie better in terms of audio support and wide video coverage of Chorus, Orchestra, and the full Organ facade. It is the version I tried to post but failed.

    That is excellent, Hal. I will keep it on my list, and thanks for the post.
    One of my favorite too. Its hard to pick a favorite, there are so many I like.

    After a long time thinking, this is one we sing at my church from time to time, but there are only a few persons around there who attempt it.
    Its called "I walked today where Jesus walked".

    One of the great soloist from another time, Jerome Hines, did an excellent of it. And sometimes I play it when I am feeling in need of a pickup.
