Although I have sung, played, and/or conducted this on numerous occasions, today (9/11/2011) it is particularly heartrending, particularly moving. It speaks of the peculiar power that music has to heal our wounded spirits
I'm not surprised this is such a popular anthem - it's such a fine work. Superb performance, as one might expect from the St. Paul's choir. Mebbe we'll hear it even more next year for JI's 50th.
I enjoyed singing this many times at the First Presbyterian Church of Hollywood (California)...it is very inspirational...We should present our bodies as living sacrifice unto God....Which is thy reputable service.
Oh yes it did! I ended up siging the solo on my chior's tour round Lake Garda, Italy! It was amazing! Italians love me now! =) I'm so happy for myself!
Incredible!

I sang the solo at 14. I hadn't been picked for solos that year, so I was chuffed.

A very fine performance. The tenor unison at "I beseech thee..." is breathtaking. Perfect.

I sang this earlier today, and enjoyed it, espically with the elaborate organist we had. Thanks for this.

Probably one of my favourite anthems ever! I sung the solo as well. But this is how it should really sound. Wow.
