I LOVE this! I think it's so pure and beautiful and so God-exalting. My only problem is when this becomes a part of the "church culture" and is separated from true worship. Then you get a type of legalism that says "this way and no other". I grew up ABC Baptist in a church that shunned instruments (except the "heavenly" piano) and it ran a bunch of us off. No one explained worship to us. It was just "this is how it is". I kept close to Jesus but, sad to say, some of my friends didn't.

@miatadriver : if you're looking for a church with no musical instruments and sacred harp singing, go to your local Primitive Baptist church. I don't know what part of the country you're in, but if your're in the South there's probably one not far away. The singing is unbelievable. There's also a Sacred Harp group that gets together to sing once or twice a month.

this is my personal favorite!

Incredibly beautiful and uplifting. The simplicity is why... It reaches all the way to Heaven.

This is the best version of this song just as Mozart's requiem is the best in its' class. Tthe reach up of the soul to something higher is captured here- Bill Maher should only be listening.

beautiful... the power of the voice...

The churches of Christ sing without instrumental music.

Amen to that.
