I am a catholic. But I'm always amazed at how, regardless of our religious differences, music can bring us all together to praise Christ. The Tabernacle choir, is America's Choir.
i left the church when i was 13 (now 24) because of my parents divorcing and leaving the church. i am at work tonight and randomly felt compelled to look up all these old songs and i'm almost in tears. the nostalgia and feeling the spirit as i did as a young boy is overwhelming. what a beautiful sound.
The Spirit truly is wonderful. I'm not sure if you are looking for it right now, but I hope you find everything that you had as a 13 year old, if not more now that you are older. Whatever is going on in your life, good luck to you brother (I mean that in both a religious and not religious way, lol). By the way, personally, when it comes to important things, I don't believe in random. I believe that "random" was the Holy Ghost.
My father told me that he would sing this song to me in my crib when I was yet a baby. I'm grateful for the news of the true gospel present again on the earth
I first heard this song when I was in an Iron Lung after being stricken by polio. Years later, while playing football at the University of Utah, I was walking by a Church and heard it again. I walked in and sat through the service, eventually becoming so impressed that I joined the LDS Faith. It's a decision that changed my life and has brought nothing but happiness to me and my family 😀
This song means so much to me. I heard it on one of the first times I ever came to visit the church before I was baptized and it made me cry. For some reason its the only song that will make me cry now every time i hear it. Honestly it's embarrassing when it plays at church now because I totally lose it hahah. I wish I could understand why that specific song affects me in such a way!
Please visit the church soon! Be baptized with real authority and take upon yourself the name of Jesus Christ! (Moroni Chapter8) Read that, and ponder it...
I’m not if the Utah Saints but I cannot deny the beauty of their choir. I don’t know what I think of Joseph Smith, but I’ve experienced the power of the Book of Mormon firsthand and would that EVERY Christian would read it and keep it near. The Book of Mormon belongs to Catholics and Baptists as much as it does to the Restoration Movement - God has given it for and to all the nations of the Earth, the duty falls on us to live its teachings.
You are absolutely correct! The Book of Mormon is for all people because it testifies of Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father's love for each of us. Continue to study, ponder, pray about it. Answers will come, of this I know.
What a magnificent church to have a choir that is known throughout the world. Even the nonbelievers love their music . This is truly the Church of Jesus Christ on Earth!
My mom is a violinist in the Orchestra :) She's been in for more than 20 years, and she loves it so much. It's been a huge blessing in my life to have music in my family, and to watch her perform so many spiritually uplifting songs over the years. I love music!!
This year marks 200 years since the first vision of the father and his son Jesus Christ appearing to Joseph Smith in the grove and it is beautiful to hear Christ's choir on this earth sing of the spirit of God praise to his Holy name for ever and ever amen
I have loved singing choral music for 25 years. I grew up listening to the choral anthems of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and it is because of this ensembles patriotic musical recordings that I know beautiful pieces such as "This Is The Army Mr. Jones" and "Give Me Your Tired Your Poor". These beautiful melodies shall live on in our American music history forever.
I love listening to the Tabernacle Choir. When it’s my time to be with our father I would love to have them sing at my church. It will touch EVERYONE in a great way!
1. The Spirit of God like a fire is burning! The latter-day glory begins to come forth; The visions and blessings of old are returning, And angels are coming to visit the earth. We'll sing and we'll shout with the armies of heaven, Hosanna, hosanna to God and the Lamb! Let glory to them in the highest be given, Henceforth and forever, Amen and amen! 2. The Lord is extending the Saints' understanding, Restoring their judges and all as at first. The knowledge and power of God are expanding; The veil o'er the earth is beginning to burst. 3. We'll call in our solemn assemblies in spirit, To spread forth the kingdom of heaven abroad, That we through our faith may begin to inherit The visions and blessings and glories of God. 4. How blessed the day when the lamb and the lion Shall lie down together without any ire, And Ephraim be crowned with his blessing in Zion, As Jesus descends with his chariot of fire!
This song will always have a special place in my heart. I had the opportunity to participate in the dedication of the Rome Italy temple, where we sang this song after doing the Hosanna shout. I also participated in the Hosanna shout during the April 2020 General Conference (where I'm pretty sure we also sang this song) and I got to wave the same handkerchief on both special occasions. I absolutely love this song. On a separate note, one of my friends once said in a sacrament meeting talk, "The Spirit of God like a furnace is working." This really hit me, because sometimes I don't think I can feel the Spirit, but when I'm in a situation where I can't feel the Spirit, I recognize that I do feel the Spirit, I just don't notice it sometimes because that feeling is so constant. Hosanna, Hosanna, to God and the Lamb, henceforth and forever, Amen and Amen.
No song on earth can be closer to Christ and his God and when sung by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, It is like the Anthem to proclaiming Christ himself and a witness to the world of his divine kingdom .
The Lord loves you and wants you to come back to him. I was away for far too long. One of the scariest things I ever did was to actually drive to the church, get out and go inside. Once I did, I felt like I had come home. I knew I was where I was meant to be. You can do it, the Lord is on your side.
This beautiful music shows the Spirit of God present in the choir,conductor and orchestra.The faith of the Mormon Church(LDS) is very evident to the listener.
I don’t what being a Mormon is al about, I follow my god through another religion, saw the Choir sing when I worked in the USA, they were fantastic, full of emotion when they sing, One of the best choirs I have ever heard, but each to their own. In god we trust and look forward being with him in Heaven
I love this hymn, and especially this performance. I see the soloist as representing Joseph Smith, who testified alone at the beginning of the Restoration. Then there were other witnesses who joined him. Now we as a Church and as a people are called to share the gospel and gather Israel in our own neighborhoods. Thanks for this wonderful music!
I learned not long ago about the man who wrote this hymn. His name was William Wines Phelps. Joseph Smith loved the hymn so much that he had the words imprinted on white satin which he strung up, and the hymn was sung at the very first temple dedication. Ever since, it has been a tradition to sing this hymn at temple dedications. This isn't very much information, but I encourage people to read about William Wines Phelps and how he joined the church, grew, fell, was forgiven and returned. It is a story of warning that even the best can fall, but it is also a wonderful story that sheds more light on Joseph Smith's wonderful character and on Christ's willingness to forgive those who earnestly seek after him and repent of what they've done.
Emily, Actually this song was sung at the first temple dedication at Kirtland, Ohio. I believe it was written specifically for that event. It was also included in the first LDS hymnal.
I know this was 2 years ago but I recently read about William Phelps in the Saints. I’m really thankful for him for composing and writing the lyrics for this wonderful hymn 😄
If you have had the privilege of hearing the choir in person the power of the Spirit is absolutely incredible. The Spirit of God penetrates the soul and fills you with such peace.
The spirit really speaks to you... especially when you get to hear them practice, AND THEN perform. I love my Lord and God, Jesus Christ and His church and I know that Joseph Smith was a real prophet and this is the true church.
Just visited a Spoken Word taping with several non member friends. They were so impressed by the choir and the music that it left an indelible impression on them. Undeniable spirit reigned and had touched them to tears.
i remember seeing them when i was 8 and i don’t remember much, but i remember the incredible spirit there. i now want to go to byu for music and hope to see them soon
This is one powerful hymn. Singing and shouting with the armies of heaven as the second coming takes place and the millenium starts!!!!!! I know the powers in Heaven, that watch over us are real. They help us to magnify our callings, to repent, to love and care for our families no matter what age they are, they help us to learn of The Lords ways, they help to aid us with comfort, with blessings, etc. I have felt these sacred messengers in heaven on occasions when i have needed help and great comfort. When i visited my 87 year old mother in her nursing home, before the pandemic, i can feel the love and power of her covenant keeping. Oh what a special bond. The powers of heaven are real I add my testimony to this! This song is very sacred and special. So many memories and hopes are attached to this song for me. Amazing amazing song. I know Jesus lives and loves us so personally so powerfully.
I have some of their music somewhere i bought many years ago i must get it and play it, listening to this choir has really lifted my spirits up, it has made me want to sing which makes me feel happy and healthier when i do so i must get on with it, this music is out of this world, thank you.
About the best hymn by the Tabernacle Choir. I came across this hymn about 1990 and have sung it uncountable times ever since then. Glory to God and the Lamb, even as we mark the Resurrection of our Christ today.
It is an amazing hymn and well sung (and I am not even Mormon). I wish all my children who sing so well did as much daily singing of hymns as I did at school. We are in danger of losing all that children learned through hymns, throwing the baby out with the bathwater and not necessarily anything to do with God but about singing together, harmony, music, community,....
“How blessed the day when the lamb and the lion shall lie down together without any ire. And Ephraim be crowned with his blessing in Zion as Jesus descends with his chariot of fire” This verse is one of my absolute favorites in this song. In my patriarchal blessing I was told that I am from the tribe of Ephraim. This song is so powerful that I cannot wait till that day.
(1) "The Spirit of God" lyrics and music were inspired by God as an anthem of strength for Saints all over the planet,( 2) Mack Wilberg is the greatest chorale arranger on the planet, (3) the Tabernacle Choir ranks as perhaps the greatest 'tour de force' choirs in the world and (4) the combination of #1-3 above is WHY this piece moves hearts and souls everywhere. What a gift to us today to casually listen to this any time we want.
I really wish there were many more good choirs, like this one, i really want to sing in a good choir. This singing on this player is so brilliant, this is really uplifting, it moves my heart, it lifts my spirits, the words are so good and full of meaning, they comfort me greatly, i could listen to a choir like this for hours and hours and still want more i absolutely love it so much, thank you.
I am for Jesus and Heavenly Father and the Holy Ghost…..they stood up for, and still stand up for my freedom to choose. I feel that as I hear this song.
Tears down.the spirit is strong. that song in our Family favorite in the Chruch. im Grateful to my grandparents that she bring to us the restored Gospel. Im grateful that im The member of The chruch
I'm here again😍😍 Love this hymn so much. Converted to the church when I was 14 and until now I'm still here. Been active and inactive, gone on a mission, lost in the path after that but come back again. I love it still and I'm not leaving ever
Praise God for this beautiful piece of music. I can feel the spirit as he is blessing me with finding this song. Thank you Choir, your music fills my soul with so much joy.❤
FAVORITE SONG IN THE WORLD!!! Sing it all the time to annoy my sister and to get my class mates confusion i know at least three katelyn's that are Mormon's that is awesome!!! challenged myself to finish The Book Of Mormon before the end of the year
Ooooohhhhhhh HALLELUYAH GLORY HOSSANA ALFA AND OMEGA, JEHOVAH JIREH,music,hymne,voice,arransemen,lyric,orchestra the choir MORMON thabernacle bagus sekali suara2 emas dari sorga sangat menyentuh dihati always cry setiap kali mendengarnya thanks so much brother and sister love love forever tomeet sampai kedatangan TUHAN yang kedua kalinya HEIR OF THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IN THE NAME OF JESUS.AMIEN.
As a child, I remember hearing this music and choir and thought it was the most beautiful music and singers in the world. Now, I am LDS. I’ve never forgotten the first hearing of the tabernacle choir. I still stop to listen to them sing.
This is the one song I memorized and request to have played at my baptism. It was also one of the first songs I played for the congregation when I was called to play the piano in church.
I’m so grateful for Brother Joseph the Prophet whose perseverance overcame all the violence and destruction of enemies who sought to wipeout members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Praise to that mans obedience to Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father. I’m humbled and so very grateful to The Lord for bringing His Church once again to the earth, for calling Prophets and Apostles to guide us, for granting man and women access to the power of the Priesthood, for blessings given to those who passed without saving ordinances. As I prepare my life to enter the waters of baptism I contemplate with gratitude the tender mercies of the Lord, His unspeakable suffering in Gethsemane and then on the cross, the ultimate and remarkable gift of the resurrection. What more could a man want? These gifts made available to us from the Savior can’t be bought or changed with money. The only way to gain a testimony of The Restored and complete Gospel of Jesus Christ can only be received as a personal witness through prayerful study of the scriptures and asking God to provide the answers. There is one Savior, one Church, one Gospel, one Priesthood, one Prophet, Twelve Apostles, one Sacrifice all one sure path back to eternal life. Thank you Jesus Christ for Your miraculous and redeeming love, for through You Your will is done, Amen.
I got super pumped when I heard the into to this song in April 2021 conference. It was the very first session I believe. When they got to that last verse, it just hit me hard and I couldn't hold back the tears. What a special way to start that conference.
How blessed the day when the lamb and the loin shall lie down together without any ire, then we will have peace all around, then there will be faith in every foot step, then there will be no more war, then we all will be signing hosanna, hosanna to God and the Lamb.
Beautiful sounding hymn.Liked the tenor solo lead followed by the male trio +male choir and finally the glorious sound of the female sections.This choir is truly blessed by God and loved throughout the Christian world.Your Mormon faith brilliantly shines.
I remember at a stake youth activity years ago the fire alarm went off and we all evacuated the building. As we waited, we all burst into song singing this. Not exactly what the song meant by “like a fire is burning”, but we felt the spirit doing it and it was very wholesome
I'll never forget singing this song with the BYU student body in the old feild house before the Marriott Center was built. Being from rural Idaho it was a thrill of thrills to be with so many spirit filled youth singing at the top of our lungs with the BYU orchestra. Angels had to be singing too just like this beautiful rendition. Awe the blessings of heaven!!!
1.The Spirit of God like a fire is burning! The latter-day glory begins to come forth; The visions and blessings of old are returning, And angels are coming to visit the earth. Chorus We'll sing and we'll shout with the armies of heaven, Hosanna, hosanna to God and the Lamb! Let glory to them in the highest be given, Henceforth and forever, Amen and amen! 2. The Lord is extending the Saints' understanding, Restoring their judges and all as at first. The knowledge and power of God are expanding; The veil o'er the earth is beginning to burst. 3. We'll call in our solemn assemblies in spirit, To spread forth the kingdom of heaven abroad, That we through our faith may begin to inherit The visions and blessings and glories of God. 4. How blessed the day when the lamb and the lion Shall lie down together without any ire, And Ephraim be crowned with his blessing in Zion, As Jesus descends with his chariot of fire!
Since october I was waiting for this video and when I finally found it on RUclips I've felt so happy! This is my favourite Hymn. Beautiful performance!
Do not at any time remove yourself from The Church of the firstborn(Jesus Christ) of Latter-day Saints,it is a regrettable situation in the last day dear.No one prays for that,not even the devil.
I am a 30 year active member of the church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints and i have never heard a more beautiful performance of this song then this one by the MTChoir !!
Hola que bello himno los de nuestra iglesia gracias por su esfuerzo de siempre cantarle a nuestro amado padre celestial y a nuestro señor Jesucristo hosana al rey de reyes alabado seas señor para siempre
Bless'ed be "The Spirit of God." "Glory to Thee in the Highest." We'll sing and we'll shout with the Armies of Heaven; Hosanna to God and the Lamb! And Angels are coming to visit the earth, and Ephraim be crown'd with his blessings in Zion; as Jesus descends with his chariot of fire. Henceforth Second Coming, Forever, and Amen.
What a great blessing to live in a time we can invite the Tabernacle Choir into our homes and have the blessings of the Spirit they bring with this beautiful music. I am so grateful that the Church of Jesus Christ embraces good technology and that it can be used to improve and bless our lives. Bringing this into my morning scripture study helps me feel the Spirit of God.
I love you my beloved Heavenly Father! Amen Amen Amen! Thanks so much for your love, thanks so much for being in my life with your mercy and peace.. :)
I am a catholic. But I'm always amazed at how, regardless of our religious differences, music can bring us all together to praise Christ. The Tabernacle choir, is America's Choir.
Wonderfully put! 🙂
Thanks for recognizing this and for sharing. God bless.
Thanks to God!
I am very happy to listen to these beautiful music from LDS church ❤
❤Thank you.
It is always good to hear such kind words from our brothers in Christ of other churches.
i left the church when i was 13 (now 24) because of my parents divorcing and leaving the church. i am at work tonight and randomly felt compelled to look up all these old songs and i'm almost in tears. the nostalgia and feeling the spirit as i did as a young boy is overwhelming. what a beautiful sound.
The Spirit truly is wonderful. I'm not sure if you are looking for it right now, but I hope you find everything that you had as a 13 year old, if not more now that you are older. Whatever is going on in your life, good luck to you brother (I mean that in both a religious and not religious way, lol).
By the way, personally, when it comes to important things, I don't believe in random. I believe that "random" was the Holy Ghost.
Joshua Smith The church needs you.
God loves you and has not forgotten you!
I'm an ex-mormon but am going back to church regularly now. It's been nothing but a blessing my friend!
The church has lost its way, but the spirit of God has not Dont ever let go of the truth contained in the scriptures.
If this was the only evidence that this Church is the true and living Church of Jesus Christ, I’d still be in it. This song is EVERYTHING.
The only evidence is what you feel from the spirit.
My father told me that he would sing this song to me in my crib when I was yet a baby. I'm grateful for the news of the true gospel present again on the earth
I first heard this song when I was in an Iron Lung after being stricken by polio. Years later, while playing football at the University of Utah, I was walking by a Church and heard it again.

Welcome to the fold :)
I testify that u are in the right place 🙏🙏
Nice on joining the chirch, and on recovering from Polio that much!
*church, I made a typo
This song means so much to me. I heard it on one of the first times I ever came to visit the church before I was baptized and it made me cry. For some reason its the only song that will make me cry now every time i hear it. Honestly it's embarrassing when it plays at church now because I totally lose it hahah. I wish I could understand why that specific song affects me in such a way!
Im Catholic. We love you all
Please visit the church soon! Be baptized with real authority and take upon yourself the name of Jesus Christ! (Moroni Chapter8) Read that, and ponder it...

I don’t know what I think of Joseph Smith, but I’ve experienced the power of the Book of Mormon firsthand and would that EVERY Christian would read it and keep it near.

You are absolutely correct! The Book of Mormon is for all people because it testifies of Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father's love for each of us. Continue to study, ponder, pray about it. Answers will come, of this I know.
Thank you this day for your testimony of the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon! All truth circumscribed as one!
Amen, Brother!
Chuck Schumer quoted a favorite verse from it during Harry Reid's funeral this week, so I think you are correct.
So true!!! It is one,of the most inspirational hymns ever written!!!❤❤
What a magnificent church to have a choir that is known throughout the world. Even the nonbelievers love their music . This is truly the Church of Jesus Christ on Earth!
My mom is a violinist in the Orchestra :) She's been in for more than 20 years, and she loves it so much. It's been a huge blessing in my life to have music in my family, and to watch her perform so many spiritually uplifting songs over the years. I love music!!
This year marks 200 years since the first vision of the father and his son Jesus Christ appearing to Joseph Smith in the grove and it is beautiful to hear Christ's choir on this earth sing of the spirit of God praise to his Holy name for ever and ever amen
Tell your mom - thank you for sharing her talent!
I have loved singing choral music for 25 years. I grew up listening to the choral anthems of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and it is because of this ensembles patriotic musical recordings that I know beautiful pieces such as "This Is The Army Mr. Jones" and "Give Me Your Tired Your Poor". These beautiful melodies shall live on in our American music history forever.
I love listening to the Tabernacle Choir. When it’s my time to be with our father I would love to have them sing at my church. It will touch EVERYONE in a great way!
I don't know you but I know God loves you .Even though you left the Church he still loves you and would welcome you back. .Give it a try
1. The Spirit of God like a fire is burning!
The latter-day glory begins to come forth;
The visions and blessings of old are returning,
And angels are coming to visit the earth.
We'll sing and we'll shout with the armies of heaven,
Hosanna, hosanna to God and the Lamb!
Let glory to them in the highest be given,
Henceforth and forever, Amen and amen!
2. The Lord is extending the Saints' understanding,
Restoring their judges and all as at first.
The knowledge and power of God are expanding;
The veil o'er the earth is beginning to burst.
3. We'll call in our solemn assemblies in spirit,
To spread forth the kingdom of heaven abroad,
That we through our faith may begin to inherit
The visions and blessings and glories of God.
4. How blessed the day when the lamb and the lion
Shall lie down together without any ire,
And Ephraim be crowned with his blessing in Zion,
As Jesus descends with his chariot of fire!
Thank you for the lyrics, I just sang along beautifully
Amen

The Mormon Tabernacle Choir is single-handedly the best choir in the world. Full stop.
Mercy’s sake the notes some of those high sopranos hit at the end. Reach all the way to heaven
No song on earth can be closer to Christ and his God and when sung by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, It is like the Anthem to proclaiming Christ himself and a witness to the world of his divine kingdom .
How could you not cry when listening or singing this? So beautiful, one of my favorites.
You surely do feel the spirit in this.
It's my favorite too
The Lord loves you and wants you to come back to him. I was away for far too long. One of the scariest things I ever did was to actually drive to the church, get out and go inside. Once I did, I felt like I had come home. I knew I was where I was meant to be. You can do it, the Lord is on your side.
The Spirit is so strong in the Church and a marvellous work and a wonder!!!
This beautiful music shows the Spirit of God present in the choir,conductor and orchestra.The faith of the Mormon Church(LDS) is very evident to the listener.

I don’t what being a Mormon is al about, I follow my god through another religion, saw the Choir sing when I worked in the USA, they were fantastic, full of emotion when they sing, One of the best choirs I have ever heard, but each to their own. In god we trust and look forward being with him in Heaven
I am a Christ Jesus latter day of God Saint I am from Cambodia 😊
Aphiream Ren and the gospel is that much better because you joined! ☺️
I love you

Has to be one of the coolest hymns ever composed.
MARAVILHOSA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's cold but the spirit of God like a fire is burning.

I believe the Lord is giving us a glimpse of the"choirs of Angels" on earth through the Mormon Tabernacle Choir
Jesus Bless You!

Glad you recognized the truth,just accept it and your joy will be full together with your family,ask for missionaries in your area.
All of those things make life so much more beautiful, doesn’t it?
“How blessed the day when the lamb and the lion shall lie down together without any ire.

I'm here again😍😍 Love this hymn so much. Converted to the church when I was 14 and until now I'm still here. Been active and inactive, gone on a mission, lost in the path after that but come back again. I love it still and I'm not leaving ever

it's sunday and I wanted to feel the spirit even stronger than ever, I love this hymn
As a child, I remember hearing this music and choir and thought it was the most beautiful music and singers in the world. Now, I am LDS. I’ve never forgotten the first hearing of the tabernacle choir. I still stop to listen to them sing.
I pray to God this choir is preserved eternity.2023
This is the one song I memorized and request to have played at my baptism. It was also one of the first songs I played for the congregation when I was called to play the piano in church.
I’m so grateful for Brother Joseph the Prophet whose perseverance overcame all the violence and destruction of enemies who sought to wipeout members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Praise to that mans obedience to Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father. I’m humbled and so very grateful to The Lord for bringing His Church once again to the earth, for calling Prophets and Apostles to guide us, for granting man and women access to the power of the Priesthood, for blessings given to those who passed without saving ordinances. As I prepare my life to enter the waters of baptism I contemplate with gratitude the tender mercies of the Lord, His unspeakable suffering in Gethsemane and then on the cross, the ultimate and remarkable gift of the resurrection. What more could a man want? These gifts made available to us from the Savior can’t be bought or changed with money. The only way to gain a testimony of The Restored and complete Gospel of Jesus Christ can only be received as a personal witness through prayerful study of the scriptures and asking God to provide the answers. There is one Savior, one Church, one Gospel, one Priesthood, one Prophet, Twelve Apostles, one Sacrifice all one sure path back to eternal life. Thank you Jesus Christ for Your miraculous and redeeming love, for through You Your will is done, Amen.
Perfect performance on this religious song called THE SPIRIT OF GOD, FROM THE ALBUM "COME, COME YET SAINTS"!.--
Handel truly for was and still is the greatest music composer of all time. heart touching
I wish I could hear this live
truly , I appreciate this song God bless yours as tebernacle singers
I like tebernacle choir in all the time
Today is the day the lord has made. Revelations chapter six.
Hymns help soften the heart. Thank you so much for the beautiful music
Aren't we all. Gather the wagons. Keep the evil away. Amen
I got super pumped when I heard the into to this song in April 2021 conference. It was the very first session I believe.
When they got to that last verse, it just hit me hard and I couldn't hold back the tears. What a special way to start that conference.
How blessed the day when the lamb and the loin shall lie down together without any ire, then we will have peace all around, then there will be faith in every foot step, then there will be no more war, then we all will be signing hosanna, hosanna to God and the Lamb.

I remember at a stake youth activity years ago the fire alarm went off and we all evacuated the building. As we waited, we all burst into song singing this. Not exactly what the song meant by “like a fire is burning”, but we felt the spirit doing it and it was very wholesome
I'll never forget singing this song with the BYU student body in the old feild house before the Marriott Center was built. Being from rural Idaho it was a thrill of thrills to be with so many spirit filled youth singing at the top of our lungs with the BYU orchestra. Angels had to be singing too just like this beautiful rendition. Awe the blessings of heaven!!!
what year was it?
I believe it was 1969.
I'm glad to be a Mormon and to be adopted into the church on my family if I was adopted by my family I wouldn't know right from wrong
1.The Spirit of God like a fire is burning!
The latter-day glory begins to come forth;
The visions and blessings of old are returning,
And angels are coming to visit the earth.
Chorus
We'll sing and we'll shout with the armies of heaven,
Hosanna, hosanna to God and the Lamb!
Let glory to them in the highest be given,
Henceforth and forever, Amen and amen!
2. The Lord is extending the Saints' understanding,
Restoring their judges and all as at first.
The knowledge and power of God are expanding;
The veil o'er the earth is beginning to burst.
3. We'll call in our solemn assemblies in spirit,
To spread forth the kingdom of heaven abroad,
That we through our faith may begin to inherit
The visions and blessings and glories of God.
4. How blessed the day when the lamb and the lion
Shall lie down together without any ire,
And Ephraim be crowned with his blessing in Zion,
As Jesus descends with his chariot of fire!
Since october I was waiting for this video and when I finally found it on RUclips I've felt so happy! This is my favourite Hymn. Beautiful performance!
Im no longer a mormon because nowdays I have a different vision and theology, but this hymn is powerful.
Come back!
Do not at any time remove yourself from The Church of the firstborn(Jesus Christ) of Latter-day Saints,it is a regrettable situation in the last day dear.No one prays for that,not even the devil.
It is beautiful. So glad you felt that :)
I am a 30 year active member of the church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints and i have never heard a more beautiful performance of this song then this one by the MTChoir !!
I love this church so much!
I do too. It is such a blessing.
Hola que bello himno los de nuestra iglesia gracias por su esfuerzo de siempre cantarle a nuestro amado padre celestial y a nuestro señor Jesucristo hosana al rey de reyes alabado seas señor para siempre
Bless'ed be "The Spirit of God." "Glory to Thee in the Highest." We'll sing and we'll shout with the Armies of Heaven; Hosanna to God and the Lamb! And Angels are coming to visit the earth, and Ephraim be crown'd with his blessings in Zion; as Jesus descends with his chariot of fire. Henceforth Second Coming, Forever, and Amen.
O Brasil ama o Senhor Jesus Cristo e sua igreja...
Maravilloso,Simplemente Magnifico.
Beautiful heavenly!!!!
What a great blessing to live in a time we can invite the Tabernacle Choir into our homes and have the blessings of the Spirit they bring with this beautiful music. I am so grateful that the Church of Jesus Christ embraces good technology and that it can be used to improve and bless our lives. Bringing this into my morning scripture study helps me feel the Spirit of God.
I love this hymn, and be sung by the tabernacle choir makes it more powerful and beautiful.
I love you my beloved Heavenly Father! Amen Amen Amen! Thanks so much for your love, thanks so much for being in my life with your mercy and peace.. :)
How could 141 people not like this? How is that possible?
How could the Jews kill Jesus? Same issue: hate and misinformation
Glorious music
A miracle of life ❤
