Oakwood University Aeolians - Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing 

As a non-believer, I am completely moved by this and while I'm not ready to accept I can't deny the spirit I feel while hearing and watching this amazing performance. If this is the 'holy spirit' inciting tears to run down my face then so be it - and I thank you! This is outstanding. To have been surrounded by these talented singers and raised up from my seat as so many have been in the video must've been a unforgettable moment.

Bro was playing with all the infinity stones 🦾👑

I believe that angels came to join in this PRAISE

Lord I thank you for this video. Who else comes here to watch this anytime this song comes into mind?

Imagine what Heaven will be like! Spectacular!

Heaven came down in this Sanctuary,to God be the glory

“Oh to grace how great a debtor” Asking for your help, Lord, though I don’t deserve your blessing. Asking for the prayers of those good souls who read these words. Asking God to bless every soul in this world.

The Aeolians of Oakwood U are the gold standard of choral singing.

Its true that when we worship, Angels come down and worship with us - that's the only explanation for this excellence!!!

No one has done this better. No choir in the world comes close. Das ist die Wahrheit. Punkt. Amen.

Sweet Mother of Pearl - that was beyond moving. I have just recently discovered this University Choir on RU-vid, and I am blown away by their talent and beautiful interpretations. I used to sing this in choir, with my Father, many years ago. A former RC, I left the Church some years ago, after a conscious decision not to support a patriarchy with such an extensive history of abuse, from sexual assault (including former Clergy teachers of mine), to the Irish Homes for unwed girls (Magdalene laundries) to the horrific abuses and cultural genocide of Residential Schools. Listening to this GLORIOUS rendition of a favourite Hymn, sung by such beautiful, passionate young people, gives me a little hope for this fractured world. Oh thou fount of every blessing - INDEED.

Move to tears 😭 You brought Jesus into many hearts with this joyous praise. 🙏May God bless you all 💝

Powerful!!!!!!!The great hymns of the Christian faith.

I sang in the Aeolians and this was my favorite to sing.

I’m sure I’ll watch this in 50 years and my eyes still be teary🥲

I cried from the depth of my soul. Thank You, Thank You. Please never stop teaching classical music. I get so tired of hearing foul, belittling lyrics and obscene music coming from my people. Thank You!

I get chills every time I hear this video. God is so good.

I was a member of the Bethune Cookman Concert Chorale. I have to say I’ve listened to this rendition about 20 times and each time I’m moved to tears. This is so anointed 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

“Prone to wander, Lord I feel it, Prone to leave the God I Love, Here’s my heart, Lord, take and seal it, Seal it for Thy courts above. I can’t ever not cry at this part. I cry and cry and cry. I couldn’t be able to sing this so flawlessly. This is just a taste of Heavenly Glory!! I LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!!💖♥️💗❤️

I just felt a taste of what it will be like when the Lord renews the Earth and we are together as one people of all backgrounds praising Him.

I ain't going to even lie but this song rang in my spirit today. The Holy Ghost had me humming this song today. What a blessed and wonderful Saviour and Redeemer we serve. 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

Praise and glory to the Name above every Name, Jesus Christ Our Lord!!! Magnificent magnificent!!!

I am totaly moved when I listen to this version of the "Fount" As a keyboardist myself, I perk up especially when the organist plays that interlude................ and again when some the sisters in the congregation completely lets the spirit cause them to scream with the joy that they did. This rendition also makes joyful tears come to mine eyes. Amen!!

Those SOPRANOS! OMG!!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭

Thank you for sharing this. The words of this hymn...the human condition to wander away from God, the recognition that it is only God that can rescue us and bring us safely home. Oh to Grace how great a debtor...daily... Yet by the simple act of asking, the multiple voices in community sharing the request supporting each other with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Thank God for His grace and the support He gives us through one another.

The Organ SOLO at 2:03 takes me in every time

POWERFUL, true LOVE for our glorious God.

I am sitting here in the First Baptist Church, Clinton OK, listening to this version after rehearsing it on our organ. I think one of the things that moves me so much is the exuberance shown on the faces and the joy exhibited on the congregations faces. I know this recording is 6 or 7 years old, but I think it is the best! I have listened and watched the Tabernacle Choir and it doesn’t come close. Praise God from whine all blessings flow!

Beautiful, just beautiful. Thank you Jesus.

That's all you need, right there. Praise God from whom all blessings flow...

I pray to God that one day I will worship at Oakwood college the Mecca of black adventism.

WOW, WOW, WOW! Over the TOP!!!! John Stoddart the organist is on another level, Lord have mercy, he is Amazing!

I’ve heard this song and even this version a THOUSAND times, but for some reason on this Sabbath evening it’s taking me to a place I haven’t been before. All I can say is TO GOD BE THE GLORY!! Happy Sabbath

Praise the Lord beautiful rendition of the song

Pure, clean, worshipful: the organ adding holy majesty...glorious, reflective inducing, potent, transportive... Set Apart for Jesus

To God be all the Glory for that Powerful performance! I cannot wait to enjoy that mighty Choir of Saints Heading to Heaven singing that song! Jesus, please come back soon! Amen!

I’m on my lunch break, sitting in my car............and I’m crying. Smh this is so beautiful.

Oakwood has a humdinger of a music school and one of the strongest choral programs in the American South. One of my favorite hymns. Feels like the church triumphant reached through one of the thin places and touched us who are still on earth.

Sounds like heaven!! There is no place like Oakwood!!

Amazing! Brought me to tears! God is Great!

Stunning. Listening just as Christmas 2018 passes. When believers sing, something important is given. 5:32-6:42 God is with us!

Oh, I love this. Glory to God! Amen!

The faces of these young people are so unworldly so individually pure in spirit. Huntsville Alabama must be a blessed place. I have seen something that brings my spirit up.

It is Easter morning 2019. Tears in my eyes as you have lifted this man's heart to gaze on our risen Jesus. Thank you for letting us in on God's continuing work through you all.

After seeing so many HORRIBLE rap and hip hop "singers and musicians" receive so much UNDESERVED attention, it makes me so glad to see these GIFTED, CLEAN-LOOKING young people singing excellent PRAISES to our Lord and Savior! Thank you so much for sharing this BLESSING!😍👍👏🙏

Thanks to every single choir member, musician, composer, arranger and conductor for creating a moment as divine as this. A glimpse of heaven.

I can't even express how beautiful this was...

Here's my heart Lord, take and seal it for the courts above, Alleluiah! Amen, Amen.

A glorious preview of when in heaven the bible promises multitudes praise The Lord. Until then together we serve a risen Christ.

After seeing HORRIBLE rap and hip hop "singer, musicians" get so much UNDESERVED exposure, these GIFTED, CLEAN CUT-LOOKING young people excellently perform this HEAVENLY music praising God gives me so much JOY and HOPE! Thank you so much for sharing this.👏👍😍

Guys. I AM PRAYING FOR THE COMMANDED BLESSING..the fruit of UNITY...Psalms 133...WE MOVE TOGETHER TODAY. ALL THE WAY...with GREAT SUCCESS..VICTORY IN JESUS...ALL GLORY TO GOD! NO flesh glorified...but giving our all..me, too..in JESUS name! Thank YOU! LORD!

The men singing sound like true soldiers of Christ. Blessed be thy name. Pray for me. Im still walking 🙏🏼

Absolutely beautiful! This is my Sabbath worship song....Praise God for such beautiful talents!

This makes me think of what will it will be like when we get to heaven. Revelations 19:1 comes to mind hearing this beautiful performance from this amazing, outstanding group of musicians. It brought me to tears. I'm still a fan of this talented group of singers and always will be. I pray the favor of God will continue to richly abide in all of your lives.

It gets better every time I listen! Excellent!

Beautiful!!! An outstanding choir. One of my favorite hymns. God bless the Aeolians!

Pure love. So amazing

The most gorgeous hymn sung by gorgeous singers! To God be the glory!!!

I found this superb version on RU-vid a few years ago, as it's one of my favorite hymns. I keep coming back, because this rendition is so magnificent. It's quite something to capture the spirit of a piece, and these musicians have done so perfectly. Thank you for the inspiring and uplifting music.

Consistently exceedingly excellent harmonics: control: lyrical, exuberant, soaring, rich: should be an ad for the school: portrays the student body as one in which long term friendships could flourish. Accomplished, intelligent, musically engaged: LOVERS OF JESUS. .

Goodness. I'm a puddle. Thank you for sharing this.

LORD is this YOU? Is it YOU LORD? Is this what YOU created; these voices, these people? Are you THE ONE WHO has done this? Are YOU THE ONE WHO said " Let Us make man in Our image and likeness?" All these voices, are they within YOU? ALL of them! Is it YOU LORD? Is it YOU? Because I can't believe what I've just heard!!!

years later and this performance still moves me to tears...Bravo doesn't begin to express the sentiment of this

Heavenly voices. Goosebumps. Praise God

GLORY!!! AMEN 🙌🙌🙌 GOD BLESS MY BLACK ADVENTIST BROTHERS AND SISTERS. that was so beautiful the anointing is on them. Keep living for Christ.♥️🙏🙏🙏

I was bawling while I was watching this. Loved it.

PRICELESS, HALLELUJAH, HALLELUJAH, PRAISE the name of the MOST HIGH GOD..🙏🏼

I listen to this everyday

I hope we never forget these hymns and sing them in remembrance.

I had to come back to this to get my fix

Absolutely Glorious and Outstanding!!! To God be the glory!!!🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💕💕💕

Sung as only the faithful can.

Amen! The world must be filled up with more worship songs like this one! Great performance! Let us bring it to one million views before the end of the year (2/22/2024)!

Nothing but love for this choir, I have tears running down my fast at the moment 😭

Anytime I listen to this song I cry😢 The lyrics are so meaningful

There is little more beautiful than the sound of human voices joined together is song. Pure joy.

My absolute favorite hymn.beautifully done 💞❤️❤️❤️

Choirs of Angel's. This was heaven on earth.❤😌🙏

The organist...incredible. Beautiful choir. Inspiring rendition.

Thank you for lifting me this morning. God bless us all.

Let's see. I have listened to this 15 times now. No plan to stop. How can that many incredible singers be in one place at one time? Even if you are not a Christian, I don't see how people could not be moved by this ! If they ever perform this as a reunion group again, I will drive down there from Virginia to hear it. What a blessing ! Thank You ! And I don't even know what an Ebenezer is and I don t care :)

oh man. .. praise the Lord! couldn't hold back the tears, can't even imagine how awesome that must have sounded in the middle of those voices.

Amazingly transforming thank you Jesus!!

This blesses me still today!!!!!! My brothers and sisters are beautiful! 😍😍😍😍

I chose this as the congregational hymn at my 46 year old daughter’s funeral, partly because we both loved it, but in large part because I had seen this some months before. It still brings me to tears, and brings me great comfort. Thank you all.

If I was ever in that audience I know for a fact I would be bawling...being there resonating with all that vibration....man well done guys!!!!

How Beautiful! Praise God!

This performance is absolutely REMARKABLE and I am so glad I found it. A lot of choirs try this arrangement and it's often very lovely, but not necessarily stirring. THIS was an emotional rollercoaster. Top-notch singing and evident commitment to the spirit of the moment - commitment to the notion that a performance like this is real life magic. And we need to talk about the organist's reinterpretation of Wilberg's harmony during his solo because that was such a brilliant and wild journey. An absurdly large musical flex that has me shook.

Wao!!! My Lord! My God! Thank You Jesús! Thanks for sharing this POWERFUL BLESSING

I'm sure even the angels appreciate this one 😍😭 Ty Father for Your Grace and unconditional love It never ends

Wonderful!!!! Glory to God!!! 👏👏👏👏

Thank you, for this melodious rendition of Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing. Truly, the voices of this choir are a blessing to every listener. As tears stream down my face now, I can only imagine what it was like to have been present during this presentation. Thank you, for keeping the hymns of the church alive with such a magnificent sound. It seems we are losing this traditional style of singing and music. I miss it so. Bravo!

What a wonderful heritage this choir is for its alumni! So moving, it makes me cry every time I hear and watch it.

Tears rolling down my face and goosebumps! Bless them!

Just exquisite! I cry every time I hear these beautiful voices!

This was so beautiful it gave chills! This just a hint of what heaven will be like. Oh praise God!

I can listen to this rendition everyday. Vocals are so pure with just enough flare from the organist. Sing Aeolians!!!!!

Powerful, deeply moving, and fabulous -- a wonderful blending of voices! And that organist! LOVE THIS

I sang with my college choir (Wartburg College) and I absolutely 💯 love your work! It is an inspiration to all! Much Love to you all!

Blessed by this hymn! Beautiful, just beautiful! This was my mother’s favorite hymn. I am sure she heard this from heaven!
