Absolutely beautiful and the most fitting tribute to a super hero who gave her best to America. We must all continue with dogged persistence to fight for equality and justice for all. We are blessed that this incredible woman did so much for our world!
It's been a long time since a song has so provoked my spirit that the tears flowed freely. Hardening of hearts. Insensitivity of passions. Living results in detachment because to hold on causes grief. Yet, even though so much has been released from my life and the hardening of hearts has visited me, even still melodies like this and voices like that of the mighty Denyce Graves pierce the wall, reach unto the innermost where few are evermore allowed. Thank you Denyce Graves for singing with all your heart. Thank you to the accompanist and composer. For a moment I feel humanity in my heart that the blessed hope of what America could be is captured in these few minutes summarized in song. God bless America and better yet, America bless God.
i was already crying before denyce graves started singing this song, and by the time she finished, i was sobbing uncontrollably. this song was such a fitting tribute to justice ginsburg's relentless determination and fighting spirit!!!! 😢
The most beautiful interpretation of this song. This should be our national anthem. It's not patriotic, jingoistic, militaristic or aggressive. It's a meditation on personal and community service.
All national anthems, especially one of a militar power born out of war, celebrae patriotism and winning war battles. The Star Spangled Banner is very appropriate.
Denyce is spectacular !! She sounds great on this recording, but she sounded even better today at RBG’s memorial . Such a gorgeous voice and a beautiful soul to match it. We all needed to hear this message today. I know she helped heal some of my worries ! Thank you Denyce!!
I remember being moved to tears when she sang this at the National Cathedral eevi6ce after 9/11. Still moves me tremendously. This version of this particular song is a gift, pure and simple.
She really is. She sounds great on recordings and she is great live. Am I wrong in saying that her career has faltered in the last decade--at least her career hasn't matched the brilliance of her voice?
@@davidalbro2009 She's married with children now and I think she's focused on that aspect of her life. However, she still appears in staged opera (she was in The Hours with Rene Flemming, Joyce DiDonato and Kelly O Hara at the Met this Spring) and is an active recitalist and educator.
Tears and goosebumps. RBG would have loved this as she was known to have loved operatic singing. This is especially special to me as she is a graduate of Duke Ellington School of the Arts in Washington, DC a few years before I was a student there.
There are no words for how fitting this tribute to RBG is. Thank you to Denyce, composer Scheer , accompanist and of course, the one "who gave her best for America", Ruth Bader Ginsberg.
Thank you .. thank you Just heard her singing this song on Capitol Hill For the Ceremony for the Late Supreme Court Justice - Ruth Bader Ginsburg Thank you A joy to discover this choice youtube.... Thank you .. Thank you !!! With tears
Me too. I had never heard it before and went looking for it after being brought to tears hearing Denyce Graves sing it at Justices Ginsberg funeral. Perfection!!!
So great to hear an African American woman sing at the first woman's memorial service in the USA CAPITOL DOOM of the USA. So wonderful re. diversity that a Jewish woman RBG is sung to rest by an African American woman singer. This is why I vote Liberal. This is why I vote Democrat with Bernie's advice. I believe in Pragmatic PROGRESSIVISM as Gov. Mario Cuomo did. Progressivism goes with humanity and science as it EVOLVES to survive in decency and humanity and love.
Malachi Chapter 2 1And now, O ye priests, this commandment is for you. 2If ye will not hear, and if ye will not lay it to heart, to give glory unto my name, saith the LORD of hosts, I will even send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings: yea, I have cursed them already, because ye do not lay it to heart. 3Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung upon your faces, even the dung of your solemn feasts; and one shall take you away with it. 4And ye shall know that I have sent this commandment unto you, that my covenant might be with Levi, saith the LORD of hosts. 5My covenant was with him of life and peace; and I gave them to him for the fear wherewith he feared me, and was afraid before my name. 6The law of truth was in his mouth, and iniquity was not found in his lips: he walked with me in peace and equity, and did turn many away from iniquity. 7For the priest's lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth: for he is the messenger of the LORD of hosts. 8But ye are departed out of the way; ye have caused many to stumble at the law; ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi, saith the LORD of hosts. 9Therefore have I also made you contemptible and base before all the people, according as ye have not kept my ways, but have been partial in the law. 10Have we not all one father? hath not one God created us? why do we deal treacherously every man against his brother, by profaning the covenant of our fathers? 11Judah hath dealt treacherously, and an abomination is committed in Israel and in Jerusalem; for Judah hath profaned the holiness of the LORD which he loved, and hath married the daughter of a strange god. 12The LORD will cut off the man that doeth this, the master and the scholar, out of the tabernacles of Jacob, and him that offereth an offering unto the LORD of hosts. 13And this have ye done again, covering the altar of the LORD with tears, with weeping, and with crying out, insomuch that he regardeth not the offering any more, or receiveth it with good will at your hand. 14Yet ye say, Wherefore? Because the LORD hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously: yet is she thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant. 15And did not he make one? Yet had he the residue of the spirit. And wherefore one? That he might seek a godly seed. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth. 16For the LORD, the God of Israel, saith that he hateth putting away: for one covereth violence with his garment, saith the LORD of hosts: therefore take heed to your spirit, that ye deal not treacherously. 17Ye have wearied the LORD with your words. Yet ye say, Wherein have we wearied him? When ye say, Every one that doeth evil is good in the sight of the LORD, and he delighteth in them; or, Where is the God of judgment?
Malachi Chapter 4 1For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch. 2But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall. 3And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the LORD of hosts. 4Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments. 5Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD: 6And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.
Malachi Chapter 3 1Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the LORD of hosts. 2But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap: 3And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the LORD an offering in righteousness. 4Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the LORD, as in the days of old, and as in former years. 5And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers, and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not me, saith the LORD of hosts. 6For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed. 7Even from the days of your fathers ye are gone away from mine ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith the LORD of hosts. But ye said, Wherein shall we return? 8Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings. 9Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation. 10Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. 11And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts. 12And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts. 13Your words have been stout against me, saith the LORD. Yet ye say, What have we spoken so much against thee? 14Ye have said, It is vain to serve God: and what profit is it that we have kept his ordinance, and that we have walked mournfully before the LORD of hosts? 15And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work wickedness are set up; yea, they that tempt God are even delivered. 16Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name. 17And they shall be mine, saith the LORD of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him. 18Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not.
Malachi Chapter 1 1The burden of the word of the LORD to Israel by Malachi. 2I have loved you, saith the LORD. Yet ye say, Wherein hast thou loved us? Was not Esau Jacob's brother? saith the LORD: yet I loved Jacob, 3And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the wilderness. 4Whereas Edom saith, We are impoverished, but we will return and build the desolate places; thus saith the LORD of hosts, They shall build, but I will throw down; and they shall call them, The border of wickedness, and, The people against whom the LORD hath indignation for ever. 5And your eyes shall see, and ye shall say, The LORD will be magnified from the border of Israel. 6A son honoureth his father, and a servant his master: if then I be a father, where is mine honour? and if I be a master, where is my fear? saith the LORD of hosts unto you, O priests, that despise my name. And ye say, Wherein have we despised thy name? 7Ye offer polluted bread upon mine altar; and ye say, Wherein have we polluted thee? In that ye say, The table of the LORD is contemptible. 8And if ye offer the blind for sacrifice, is it not evil? and if ye offer the lame and sick, is it not evil? offer it now unto thy governor; will he be pleased with thee, or accept thy person? saith the LORD of hosts. 9And now, I pray you, beseech God that he will be gracious unto us: this hath been by your means: will he regard your persons? saith the LORD of hosts. 10Who is there even among you that would shut the doors for nought? neither do ye kindle fire on mine altar for nought. I have no pleasure in you, saith the LORD of hosts, neither will I accept an offering at your hand. 11For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same my name shall be great among the Gentiles; and in every place incense shall be offered unto my name, and a pure offering: for my name shall be great among the heathen, saith the LORD of hosts. 12But ye have profaned it, in that ye say, The table of the LORD is polluted; and the fruit thereof, even his meat, is contemptible. 13Ye said also, Behold, what a weariness is it! and ye have snuffed at it, saith the LORD of hosts; and ye brought that which was torn, and the lame, and the sick; thus ye brought an offering: should I accept this of your hand? saith the LORD. 14But cursed be the deceiver, which hath in his flock a male, and voweth, and sacrificeth unto the Lord a corrupt thing: for I am a great King, saith the LORD of hosts, and my name is dreadful among the heathen.
RBG's ears were bleeding as mine were. She experienced post mortem embarrassment over how awful this song is. She had great love and appreciation for both operatic and orchestral music and the eternal and transcendent language of song. I believe she would agree this song is shit. Pablum. .. and a waste of a supremely talented voice.
I'm here after she just sang this at the funeral of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. How emotional especially at a time such as this! 😥😥😥
It brought us to tears. It’s the most beautiful expression of patriotism I’ve ever heard.
I agree! It was beautifully done and incredibly appropriate for this occasion! Rest In Peace Justice Ginsburg.
My tears are flowing. What a perfect tribute for Justice Ginsburg.
Me tooooooooo! I was so moved
Same here!
She gave her best to this is country. Nothing was given, everything was earned. Thank you Justice Ginsburg. Your legacy lives on!
Absolutely beautiful and the most fitting tribute to a super hero who gave her best to America. We must all continue with dogged persistence to fight for equality and justice for all. We are blessed that this incredible woman did so much for our world!

i was already crying before denyce graves started singing this song, and by the time she finished, i was sobbing uncontrollably. this song was such a fitting tribute to justice ginsburg's relentless determination and fighting spirit!!!! 😢
powerful and moving.... I'm posting to FB asking my friends to STOP, LISTEN, AND REFLECT ♥️. perfect to honor the Notorius RBG ♥️
Same here!
I am as well.
Her rendition is just powerful and beautiful! The lyrics of this song should unite us all here in the United States of America.
The most beautiful interpretation of this song. This should be our national anthem. It's not patriotic, jingoistic, militaristic or aggressive. It's a meditation on personal and community service.

OMIGOD! This is LOVELY! I'm crying. We are rehearsing this for our 4th of July celebration this year. I've never heard it sung so beautifully.
It makes your heart feel the honor of sacrifice and love of a country .Give your best always
This was such a great tribute to Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and so heart felting. 😪😪
This is song is so moving and had me in tears as she was singing at RBG's memorial service. She gave her best to America her whole life.
Denyce is spectacular !! She sounds great on this recording, but she sounded even better today at RBG’s memorial . Such a gorgeous voice and a beautiful soul to match it. We all needed to hear this message today. I know she helped heal some of my worries ! Thank you Denyce!!
Beautiful, Denyce! Bravissima!!
Awesome, just such an amazing and Elegant Mezzo Soprano and She's Gorgeous 😍
A moving and beautiful tribute. Thank you Justice Ginsberg. You gave your best to America and we are better for it.
THIS IS SINGING "HIGH" WHEN OTHERS SING LOW. THANK YOU.
Well said!
I remember being moved to tears when she sang this at the National Cathedral eevi6ce after 9/11. Still moves me tremendously. This version of this particular song is a gift, pure and simple.
I was a first year music student hat year and it was my first introduction to the voice of Ms. Graves.
Beautiful! Beautifully song
A most fitting tribute to Justice Ginsburg from her friend
Stunningly beautiful.
Ms. Graves is simply one of the greatest singers of our time.
She really is. She sounds great on recordings and she is great live. Am I wrong in saying that her career has faltered in the last decade--at least her career hasn't matched the brilliance of her voice?
@@davidalbro2009 She's married with children now and I think she's focused on that aspect of her life. However, she still appears in staged opera (she was in The Hours with Rene Flemming, Joyce DiDonato and Kelly O Hara at the Met this Spring) and is an active recitalist and educator.
Amazing!!! What a wonderful tribute to a Great Lady.
What an incredible mezzo-soprano. Her diction is flawless.
Stunning!
I missed it this morning, so came here to hear it.
Myself as well.
Tears and goosebumps. RBG would have loved this as she was known to have loved operatic singing. This is especially special to me as she is a graduate of Duke Ellington School of the Arts in Washington, DC a few years before I was a student there.
Denyce Graves was friends with RBG.
A magnificent transcendent gift to RBG and to us all
There are no words for how fitting this tribute to RBG is. Thank you to Denyce, composer Scheer , accompanist and of course, the one "who gave her best for America", Ruth Bader Ginsberg.
Outstanding tribute to a true legend 💙😢

Me too. I had never heard it before and went looking for it after being brought to tears hearing Denyce Graves sing it at Justices Ginsberg funeral. Perfection!!!
As did I.. with tears. I love Denyce Graves.@@kcrawl1177

A fitting farewell to an incredible woman. You will be sorely missed, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
Thank you President Biden for giving us hope after a long four years. We will work together!
Today she sang at the services in the Capitol for Justice Ruth Bader.... chills!!!!!
AND GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU ALL !
She's just introduced Ruth literally to me through the songs
An inspiring tribute to Ruth Bader Ginsburg and marching orders for the rest if us.
Such a wonderful rebuff to the Trump administration...especially at a time such as this!🇺🇲
New national anthem?

Chapter 2
1And now, O ye priests, this commandment is for you.
2If ye will not hear, and if ye will not lay it to heart, to give glory unto my name, saith the LORD of hosts, I will even send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings: yea, I have cursed them already, because ye do not lay it to heart.
3Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung upon your faces, even the dung of your solemn feasts; and one shall take you away with it.
4And ye shall know that I have sent this commandment unto you, that my covenant might be with Levi, saith the LORD of hosts.
5My covenant was with him of life and peace; and I gave them to him for the fear wherewith he feared me, and was afraid before my name.
6The law of truth was in his mouth, and iniquity was not found in his lips: he walked with me in peace and equity, and did turn many away from iniquity.
7For the priest's lips should keep knowledge, and they should seek the law at his mouth: for he is the messenger of the LORD of hosts.
8But ye are departed out of the way; ye have caused many to stumble at the law; ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi, saith the LORD of hosts.
9Therefore have I also made you contemptible and base before all the people, according as ye have not kept my ways, but have been partial in the law.
10Have we not all one father? hath not one God created us? why do we deal treacherously every man against his brother, by profaning the covenant of our fathers?
11Judah hath dealt treacherously, and an abomination is committed in Israel and in Jerusalem; for Judah hath profaned the holiness of the LORD which he loved, and hath married the daughter of a strange god.
12The LORD will cut off the man that doeth this, the master and the scholar, out of the tabernacles of Jacob, and him that offereth an offering unto the LORD of hosts.
13And this have ye done again, covering the altar of the LORD with tears, with weeping, and with crying out, insomuch that he regardeth not the offering any more, or receiveth it with good will at your hand.
14Yet ye say, Wherefore? Because the LORD hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously: yet is she thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant.

16For the LORD, the God of Israel, saith that he hateth putting away: for one covereth violence with his garment, saith the LORD of hosts: therefore take heed to your spirit, that ye deal not treacherously.

2But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap:
3And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the LORD an offering in righteousness.
4Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the LORD, as in the days of old, and as in former years.
5And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against false swearers, and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not me, saith the LORD of hosts.

7Even from the days of your fathers ye are gone away from mine ordinances, and have not kept them. Return unto me, and I will return unto you, saith the LORD of hosts. But ye said, Wherein shall we return?

15And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work wickedness are set up; yea, they that tempt God are even delivered.
16Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name.
17And they shall be mine, saith the LORD of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him.
18Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not.

Joe Biden’s favorite song be like
President Biden mentioned this song in his Inaugural speech.
While I appreciate this, I still hate opera. Sorry!!!
RBG's ears were bleeding as mine were. She experienced post mortem embarrassment over how awful this song is. She had great love and appreciation for both operatic and orchestral music and the eternal and transcendent language of song. I believe she would agree this song is shit. Pablum. .. and a waste of a supremely talented voice.
You are an Ass. I'm sorry for you.
RBG Hated this country thanks to her for her part in trying to rip it to schreds. RNG rest in peace you buzzard, rip
@@McCarminer Nothing more? This is the substance of your argument? And I'm the ass that needs pity?
@@dedrakuhn6103you’re not worth walking on American streets.
