I loss my daddy 2020 from Covid..I just heard this rendition a year after he died. Oh how I wish he could have heard this. He loved the song and loved the Aeolians. The song gives me hope that I will see him in The New Jerusalem.
I have no words. I really don't! I sit here just shaking my head. Where do you even start! Singing the Gospel with such excellence, poise, flawless precision!! The suspense and surprises. The tonicizations and modulations. The sheer passion and control of Dr. Ferdinand. O Chineke!!
Aeolians of Oakwood University This music is awesome. You are well equipped, great voices and profound conductor, prestigious orchestra, I'm proudly Seventh Day Adventist, from South Africa, in venḓa and I'm inspired
One of the most beautiful songs written and what a beautiful arrangement! The orchestra and choir are amazing. Can’t wait for heaven and to see this New Jerusalem! Hosannah to our King, the Lord Jesus!
Good afternoon and pleasant Sabbath to all. This is a wonderful singing group, I am enjoying the song, I am viewing from St. Croix USVI. May the Lord continue to bless you all and continue to increase your singing talents.
A combination of powerful voices, creative arrangement, colorful orchestration, and the superb interpretation of the conductor! I can almost see the Holy City descending from the heavens! . _”Even so, come, Lord Jesus!”_
Marvelous arrangements in largo movement refrain and the oerformatic spiritual voices very impressive in trinados or some owaving vocalizind end phrases. Marvelous. Excelent performance. Congratulation. Remember my Maestrine Jane Faulkner from Four Square. Church arrangements in 70' s. PASTOR JBALMEIDA BRAZIL
After the powerful and wonderful sound I can only say Praise to the Almighty God🙏🏼😃🙏🏼 The choir sounds even I can’t find the right words - Incredible it’s too poor description! Wow I’m impressed to the depth of my soul! Great job mr conductor Jason! Praise to the Lord for your talent and dedication🙏🏼😃🎶 If one day I’ll visit USA the first place where I go it’s the Oakwood University, choirs practice and sabbath sermon 😃 May God richly bless you, your family and the wonderful choir family 🙏🏼😃🙏🏼
I must confess, I never really had an appreciation for this great anthem until listening and viewing this ministry performance. This was brilliant musically; however I was totally immersed into the actual delivery and message of the lyrics as expressed through these wonderful singers' voices accompanied by the most talented orchestra. Thank you, Dr. Ferdinand, for being a mentor and musical guide to these young people. I must ask: is this arrangement an adaptation of another arrangement? I'm hearing some sections which have that "Ferdinand stamp" on them.

Cari vi faccio presente e poi decidete voi , che dio non approva gli idoli come statue dipinti croci , si anche la croce e un idolo isaia 42 verso 8 : dice , io sono il signore questo e il mio nome , non daro la mia gloria ad altri , ne il mio onore agli idoli
