Yeah, THAT's the way this should be sung. Heart-lifting. Thanks!!!
I remember singing this when I was in my church’s children’s choir. Best days of my life.
City of God
Dan Schutte
Awake from your slumber, arise from your sleep
A new day is dawning for all those who weep
The people in darkness have seen a great light
The Lord of our longing has conquered the night
Let us build the city of God
May our tears be turned into dancing
For the Lord, our light and our love
Has turned the night into day
We're sons of the morning, we are daughters of day
The one who has loved us has brightened our way
Let us build the city of God
May our tears be turned into dancing!
For the Lord, our light and our love
Has turned the night into day
God is light, In him there is no darkness
Let us walk in his light, his children one and all
Oh comfort my people, make gentle your words
Proclaim to my city, the day of her birth
Let us build the city of God
May our tears be turned into dancing
For the Lord, our light and our love
Has turned the night into day
Music that keeps is grounded to what is truly important!
Regularly sang this song at Alpha Convent of Mercy Chapel, in Kingston, Jamaica; at the Sunday mornings mass with the Sisters of Mercy and boys of Alpha Boys School.
ALMIGHTY GOD IS ONE AND BLESSES EVERYONE WITHOUT ANY DISCRIMINATION
Finally live music in mass tonight and heard this beautiful and inspirational hymn
I hope the people down the balcony are singing joyfully as the choir upstair 🎀
What a great and joyful bunch of people.
This hymn has been sung at all the major events in my life,University grtaduation, Marriage, childs baptisms. I love hearing it and this group does it so well...takes me back
Also to add, in a non-Mass setting, I've always wondered how these '80s and '90s tunes would sound with pop production. For instance, imagine City of God with horns, a la Chicago, Huey Lewis, or Earth, Wind & Fire. Christ Be Our Light, featuring Amy Grant and Twila Paris (or even Smitty and S.C. Chapman). You Are Mine's power, but with a Elton/Taupin arrangement; tons of triplets and sus chords. We Are Called, with the George Michael gospel feel of One More Try. And a rocking version of Dana Scallon's We Are One Body, featuring Foreigner/Lou Gramm (along the lines/feel of I Want To Know What Love Is).
Or arranged like the Bonner Family version of How Great Thou Art. It would rock! This version is awesome, too!
It's another of my kindergarten, elementary school songs. Evergreen Catholic 🌱🌲
An epic favorite from the Glory and Praise parts One and Two. So many things happened at my parish during the time they rolled this out.
For me, although Mass was always in English, 1976 changed everything from the old to the new. Our little adobe parish church was closed and a new, disco 70s church was built. No more old fashioned confessional stalls, instead we had the modern closet type with the lighted crosses over the door and a sitting area for face to face confession. That was the very confusing year for every child making their first communion. The new church had no communion rail. That was the first year children were instructed to receive communion in the hand and to receive the wine. And our old hymnals were gone and the new hymnals were the Glory and Praise books.
My poor parents, their heads almost exploded during my sacramental prep that year. Oh! And the Act of Contrition was revised for the first time. It’s been revised again since then.
Of all the things that changed, although I love my parish church where I made my first communion and confession, was confirmed and was married, the only part of all those changes I truly loved and still do was the Glory and Praise hymnal.
76 was the change over year for so many things. I saw an interview with Jack White with Stephen Colbert and you can tell who is older by the fact that they didn’t recognize each other’s favorite hymns. I recognized both. lol
Agree . . . 1976 seemed to be the year a lot of new was rolled out.
Beautiful Catholic Hymn!
When I hear you sing I feel the power of the Holy Spirit ...

I LOVE IT!!!!!
Very great holy song very good singing university students
My favorite hymn ❤️
Listen at 1.25 speed. Sounds more epic.
I am a traditionalist mostly, but at the same time, this particular song is uplifting. It and others (All Are Welcome, etc.) might not be Mass-appropriate but I listen to them while training for my marathons. All things in their proper place.
Changing the world one investor at a time: Jump Mary Jump!
Please release a CD
+Michael Rolfes I'm pretty sure they have one.. I went to see them last Friday in Charleston IL and they said the way they tour is they sell recordings. They sing every Sunday at 11:00 Mass at the Notre Dame Basilica in South Bend.
Susan from the Parish Council approves!
I love Susan, she's so inclusive and I hope she may be a priestess one day!
This is the anthem of all the Novus Ordo Susans of the parish council.
I believe this selection has four verses... I could only discern three verses that were sung... It would be nice if the folk choir could make a video of them singing all four verses, either during a mass or not during a mass...
This youtube video is the best rendition of this selection that I've been able to find...
they actually sang 6 verses (2 verses,chorus,2 verses, chorus, 2 verses, chorus) that's extremely rare in most churches as most don't even get to the 5th verse before they end it
I hope someone can find a way to show the choir singing *all* the verses...This selection is a very popular one, and I'm sure there will be another occasion when they sing it either before or at the end of the Mass.. Best wishes to you!
❤❤❤❤
lets fucking go choir got me hype like im off a 3 day meth bender
Who is listening in 2017?😁😁
2018
2019 here!
As a joke...
where can i find this beautiful arrangement!
#boredinquarantine
There are two links up above in the description box. One for Spotify and the other for Apple Music. You can listen to a whole album (including this recording) in those places, I believe.
Wonder what the priest tells the celebrant at the beginning ? 🤔
Is there a way that I could get a recording of this hymn from a very talented choir? Thinking a CD.
Check Amazon or Barnes and Noble for music by the St. Louis Jesuits.
The organ is magnificent! I wish I could say the same for the other instruments but I can't. Folk Mass was the 1970s.
I was actually gettkng into it, until it was edited in the ending...(verse/s missing)

great job. about the only thing i'd do differently, on the 3rd veese have the men sing :we are sons of the morning: then the Women sing :we are daughters of day" the proceed with the rest of the song as normal
+Danny Eyheralde Don't you want the whole congregation to sing, though?
klovis912 good point
+Danny Eyheralde Another really important point is that when we sing congregationally, we are really praying in the name of the Church. So we are, in fact, sons of the morning AND daughters of day.
Who is the conductor? Who is the organist?
+mortonbelcher Director: Steven C.Warner Organ: Karen Schneider-Kirner
Thank you for providing me with this information.
your welcome. Steve stepped down as Director and the end of the past school year and when school resumes in August Karen will serve as both Accompanist and interim Director (although she has always been billed as Assistant Director even when she was accompanist)
Thank you for the update! I'm sure Karen will do a good job...
One other matter! Would you please ask the webmaster not to cut off this particular selection before the end? I think there may have been more to the video that the choir sang.
Although I'm not Roman Catholic, (I'm Episcopalian) I really like this selection... my home church's former organist/choirmaster was Roman Catholic (unfortunately he has passed on to his reward) and the whol church was very fond of him.. He taught us this particular selection "City of God," which was well received.
I would love to be able to watch/listen to a video of your choir from the beginning, as with this video, to the very end singing City of God...
I have heard that a new organ is going to be installed in the chapel... That certainly is good news...
Best,
Morton Belcher
I'm actually not affiliated with the choir in any way, I just happened to have the answers to your ?'s
I awoke from my slumber and went straight to the Traditional Latin Mass.
This is good music for evangelicalism in the developing world. It doesn’t help the church much in Europe or North America.
It's even better when sung with a large choir. Too bad it's got a tambourine and bongo. Awesome on a pipe organ.
Organ, yes Guitar, yes. But not together! Cacophony!
That poor organ :( and to think it's capable of Bach and instead gets Schutte
Nori Elisabeth Fahrig it truly got Schutte on
Gag
Stink langweilig
