I sang this solo in church about 50 years ago, and while I was not this good by any stretch. This video brings back a memory that was both incredible, and sad.
Anthony, I Thank God for the gifts and talents He has given you. May He continue to Bless your voice and May you always use it for His Honor and Glory. I can’t help remembering your grandparents Pr. & Mrs. Bolivar. How much they valued Good music. I know that if they could hear you today tears of Joy would stream down their cheeks and they would be very proud of you. Elvin, I also thank God for the gifts and talents he has given you. Thank you for that beautiful accompaniment on the piano. Beautiful team work. A Blessing to hear. God Bless you both🙏
CONGRATULATIONS BEAUTIFUL VOICE RING, EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE NOTES CHANGED IN THE ACCOMPANIMENT AND ON THE MELODIC LINE. THAT CHANGES THE MEANING OF THE PHRASE !.
An extremely refreshing tenor sound; I am totally impressed with your training, amazing talent and this great arrangement. You have an extremely bright future ahead and my prayer is that you go as far as you can. Thank you for sharing!! :)
Absolutely spellbinding! Your rendition of The Holy City spoke volumes of belief in Jesus and his mission to the people of God. Thank you so very much and every blessing to you and your music.
Que lindo!!! Una alabanza que me gustaba escuchar desde niño. Anthony, Dios te siga bendiciendo, para escuchar más alabanzas a Dios. Y al pianista también, excelente! Saludos desde Panamá.
Listening in 2022. Oh what a great job. Takes my mind way back to when I first heard this hymn in elementary school. The girl (a schoolmate) did a superb job. I remember it to this day. Thanks. PEACE to all. Merry 🎄🎅🌲🧑🎄🎄🤶
Super rendition of a much loved classic! Sung beautifully, with feeling, control and clarity. I recall performing the Holy City at a singing competition back in my school days, and was overcome with nostalgia listening to you sing this piece. Also, loved your rendition of He's got the whole world! Best wishes and keep up the amazing singing!
I’ve been listening to all different singers renditions of this glorious song. Jessye Norman I thought was impossible to match but this is magnificent. It’s so nice to have both male and female singers perform it.
Bravissimo Anthony, God has blessed you with an amazing voice. I hope your career goes from strength to strength and hopefully you will come to the UK in the near future so that we can see and hear you.
Lyrics by Jeanette McDonald: thank you for a wonderful presentation! This is about the NEW ETERNAL JERUSALEM in Rev. 21:2 which will be a part of the NEW HEAVENS AND THE NEW EARTH, lasting into ETERNITY. Last night I lay a-sleeping I dreamed a dream so fair, I stood in old Jerusalem Beside the temple there. I heard the children singing, And ever as they sang I thought the voice of angels From heaven in answer rang, I thought the voice of angels From heaven in answer rang. Jerusalem! Jerusalem! O How the angels sing! Hosanna in the highest! Hosanna to your King! And then I saw my dream was changed, The streets no longer rang. Hushed were the glad Hosannas No little children sang. The sun grew dark with mystery, The morn was cold and chill, As the shadow of a cross arose Upon a lonely hill, As the shadow of a cross arose Upon a lonely hill. Jerusalem! Jerusalem! O How the angels sing! Hosanna in the highest! Hosanna to your King! And once again the scene was changed, NEW EARTH there seemed to be. I saw the Holy City Beside the tideless sea. The light of God was on its streets, The gates were open wide, And all who would might enter, And no one was denied. No need of moon or stars by night, Or sun to shine by day; IT WAS THE NEW JERUSALEM THAT WOULD NOT PASS AWAY! (2X) Jerusalem! Jerusalem! O How the angels sing! Hosanna in the highest! Hosanna FOREVERMORE! (2x)
Greetings from New Zealand,loving your voice,tone and beautiful clear diction Anthony,wonderful rendition,especially enjoyed your performance of Oh Divine Redeemer,Thankyou for posting😃
Our Great Auntie passed last night. She is now in New Jerusalem. Thank you and Mr. piano man for partnering with the Holy Spirit to bring this to the Body of Christ still here.
Que Dios te siga iga utilizando que hermoso la verdad escucharte me transporta aquel momento cuando veamos a nuestro Salvador regresar y llevarnos a habitar con él en la Nueva Jerusalén
As a long-time voice teacher and choral conductor, I am excited to hear a young talent like Anthony León. What a bright, resonant sound, honed to a magnificent performance. I heard him online do "On Wenlock Edge" by Vaughan Williams, while he was a student at New England Conservatory. Beautiful work!
Was not expecting that ending. What an Awesome rendition!!!! That was so uplifting! The Holy Spirit stirs hearts with that one for sure, my brother-in-Christ!
Beautiful interpretation and delivery! Don't mind the naysayers---some people are triggered by change. Yours is refreshing, and don't let anyone tell you different, Anthony! Blessings from Switzerland!
I have been listening to many singers and choirs performing this song tonight. Yours is by far the best! Thank you for blessing us with your magnificent gift. God bless
Beautiful, intelligent interpretation, Anthony. Passionate & well phrased (this sacred song can be challenging to sing), And, such a beautiful voice. You're new to me but I look forward to more.

A really lovely performance Anthony! Thank you so much! I'm greatly looking forward to the album.
This is the greatest arrangement and expression of this song I have ever heard!

I agree Anthony León is my favorite male vocalist and Jessye Norman might be my favorite female for this song.
Also have a listen to Richard Crooks and Jack Holcomb’s versions!! :)

Lyrics by Jeanette McDonald: thank you for a wonderful presentation!
This is about the NEW ETERNAL JERUSALEM in Rev. 21:2 which will be a part of the NEW HEAVENS AND THE NEW EARTH, lasting into ETERNITY.
Last night I lay a-sleeping
I dreamed a dream so fair,
I stood in old Jerusalem
Beside the temple there.
I heard the children singing,
And ever as they sang
I thought the voice of angels
From heaven in answer rang,
I thought the voice of angels
From heaven in answer rang.
Jerusalem! Jerusalem!
O How the angels sing!
Hosanna in the highest!
Hosanna to your King!
And then I saw my dream was changed,
The streets no longer rang.
Hushed were the glad Hosannas
No little children sang.
The sun grew dark with mystery,
The morn was cold and chill,
As the shadow of a cross arose
Upon a lonely hill,
As the shadow of a cross arose
Upon a lonely hill.
Jerusalem! Jerusalem!
O How the angels sing!
Hosanna in the highest!
Hosanna to your King!
And once again the scene was changed,
NEW EARTH there seemed to be.
I saw the Holy City
Beside the tideless sea.
The light of God was on its streets,
The gates were open wide,
And all who would might enter,
And no one was denied.
No need of moon or stars by night,
Or sun to shine by day;
IT WAS THE NEW JERUSALEM
THAT WOULD NOT PASS AWAY! (2X)
Jerusalem! Jerusalem!
O How the angels sing!
Hosanna in the highest!
Hosanna FOREVERMORE! (2x)
You have a beautiful voice and it is sheer joy listening to you sing. Thank you.
