I'm a 49 year old father of three...not a religious man...but I know music. I think David is the best singer in my lifetime, no matter if you're talking gospel, pop, soul, whatever. His live performances put everyone else to shame. Every time I think I've seen his best, I find another unbelievable, emotion-eliciting performance like this one. It's hard to believe he's that good. Thanks David!
Tracy, I must agree with you. David is one of the finest Tenors. But let me say, his passion; that's very evident in his songs is who you need to investigate. The LOVE of Christ is there for everyone to find.
Tracy, I thought that I had responded to your post earlier today, but I guess not. What I said, agreeing with you that David Phelps is probably the most versatile Tenor in the world today. You had said that you're not a "religious" person. Actually, it's not about "religion". It is, however about "RELATIONSHIP." The reason David can sing with so much passion is because of His relationship with our GOD. If you'd be interested in learning more, I would love to talk to you. If not, then enjoy David's gift.
David Phelps is our all time favorite singer. My husband wants his song "Goin" Home" sung at his funeral. We love the faith that exudes from gospel performances. David Phelps can sing any genre of music; and you can't help from being mesmerized by what ever he sings. He is a very gifted man.
David’s two boys are standing behind him singing. When he gets to the line through an open door you can see them very well. The baby is in the front and big brother is right behind him. They both look just like David. Precious!
My husband was trying the last few weeks of his life to get to this home. We did not understand, until we heard him conversing with God that Heaven was that home. He told us Jesus was the way to get there. He held my hands and looked in my eyes, as he left and though not a word was said, we communicated through our hearts and eyes the morning he left for that beautiful new home. This song says it all.
The words are changed slightly to fit the Biblical view of death, eternity and God's Grace through Jesus Christ - David Phelps is simply the finest male voice ever heard and this combination of backup singers and orchestra cannot be found anywhere else - this is simply the #1 version of Goin' Home ever produced. I have heard them all. Whoever wrote the score to this version is a genius.
This song will for ever remind of my father... I had been singing it for a while, way before he got sick, and whenever I sang it, it made me 😞.Today I know.... my father went to be with the Lord.. He was a true warrior and an excellent example of what a real father should be.. I will see you in heaven papi😞
David Phelps is the best ever tenor in the world. David conveys the meaning of the song with such sincerity and belief. He feels what he sings, I could listen to him all day.
David deserves the biggest stadium in the world to fit his stratospheric voice! When he goes home (I hope not too soon), he'll be singing solo with the angelic choir in heaven!
Goin' home, goin' home, I'm a goin' home Quiet like, some still day, I'm just goin' home It's not far, just close by, through an open door Work all done, care laid by Going to fear no more Mother's there, expecting me Father's waiting too Lots of folks gathered thereAll the friends I knew Nothin's lost, all is gain No more fret or pain No more stumblin' on the way No more longin' for the day Goin' to roam no more Morning star lights the way Restless dream all done Shadows gone, break of day Real life just begun There's no break, There's no end I'll be living on. Wide awake with a smile, going on and on Goin' home, goin' home, I'm a goin' home It's not far, just close by, through an open door I'll be goin' home, I'll be goin' home I'm goin' home, I'm goin' home Lord I'm goin' home
My mom had asked many years prior to her passing for this song at her funeral. Then ten years of dementia turned to full on ALZ. The morning after she passed, for the first time I looked up a UA-cam version of the song as I only had/have the sheet music Mom gave me. Listened to Sissel sing it and I bawled my heart and eyes out for at least 30 minutes. That was 4 years ago today. You sure picked a good song, Mom, who knew what that memory robbing disease would do to you. Love you more today than yesterday. See you again one day. Only discovered this recording this evening and melancholy comfort arrests my heart.
It might help you to understand David's classic album (this is from that album) if you also knew his sister and dear friend who had always sung back-up for him and with him and he idolized from a child was dying of cancer. That's why there's a bit of a focus on home-going on the album. Her name is Sherri Proctor - she had a beautiful voice. Blessings - I know you miss your Mom.
@@yeshuabride-sherry3025 my mum also died true to dementia. for those who suffer this illness she was always looking home to her mum. we need this at her funeral. lovely song
Dank je David voor dit mooie dat je samen met de kinderen heb gezongen, ik vind het altijd prachtig als kinderen mee zingen, bij een groot koor of bij jou, ik kan hier echt van genieten en krijg zelfs tranen in me ogen zo mooi het klinkt, Dank je wel David en Gods Zegen in jou toekomst en zegeningen voor je kinderen en je vrouw. ( ' k Heb geloofd en daarom zing ik, Daarom zing ik van ge-na, Van ontferming en verlossing. Door het Bloed van Gol-go-tha, Daarom zing ik U die stervend, Alles Alles hebt volbracht. Lam Gods dat de zonde wegneemt, Lam van God voor ons geslacht! ) Dit is een mooi lied wat wij veel zingen zeker met ....Passie en Pasen.! Maar ook om ons te sterke in het geloof. AMEN.
I don't know about you folks here but it thrills my soul to hear David's version of "Goin' Home". It is wonderful that this young man with this unequaled talent has dedicated his life's work to the business of our Father ! I have asked my family to play this song by David Phelps at MY funeral . . .
The lowest angel in heaven--if there is such a thing--can sing a hundred times better than David. he's good by earthly standards though. I just don't care for the applause, we discourage it in my church, however, it does happen sometimes, but I don't personally applaud anyone human. My favorite Christian writer outside the Bible says; “The applause of men is the food that is relished by the perverted appetite of the Christless soul. Infatuated by a Satanic ambition to have the supremacy, professed followers of Christ are led on from one delusion to another until eternity is lost out of their reckoning. But he who lives godly in Christ Jesus will have no relish for the forbidden praise of men.” {RH, December 4, 1894 par. 7}
@@theSaxman5 What is your point? Are you saying he's "anointed?" No CCM artist is anointed--check your Bible and see who's anointed--kings and prophets.
My condolences at the loss of your Mom. My Mom passed in 2000 and I miss her every day. May God give you the peace that passes all understanding. God bless you, Nancy ❤
This song bring tears to me every time i listen to Davids arrangement, because it makes me so joyful to think of my future home going. Jesus love everyone of you . If you dont know that I pray you will ask him into your heart so you too can look forward to someday “going home” and living eternally with Him.
I have been around singing my intire life . I have heard some of the best singing there is . Some are in small churches that never got to be popular or famous . Today quartets and other singers are very good . But I in 62 years of life have yet to hear ANYONE that can come close to the voice that our Lord gave to David Phelps . Simply put he is the best that I have ever listened to . To me he not only has the voice but also the anointing of the Holy Spirit that is vital !!!!
If you have had any involvement in music, or have just listened to a lot of singers over the years, you will realise that what makes David truly the greatest singer of all time is the fact this is LIVE.
Absolutely touches my heart every time I hear this beautiful song. My mother and father are passed and last year I lost my youngest brother, so he joined them. I love the words to this song and know without a doubt when the Lord decides it's my time, I will truly be home!
I have been fortunate to be able to see David 11 times now live in concert and have met him several times now, as well. I have met and had conversation with his dad at David's home during the labor day barn bash, and folks...he is the most genuine, real and gracious artist I have ever know or heard of. A humble yet insanely talented man. David is the best male vocalist, any genre, of our generation today. The best on the planet....in my mind there is no question. And he is real and humble, to boot. No one can do what he can do vocally regarding clarity, tone, resonance and especially range....and so effortlessly accomplished. As I said, 11 times live...I have never, ever seen him miss a note, crack, or be out of tune with poor pitch....he doesn't have a bad day. Just incredible.
kueagle-Not yet she's still resting unconscious in the grave until Jesus comes. Ecc 9:5 For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. Ecc 9:6 Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun. Ecc 9:10 Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, where you go. The above vss. address what happens at death, and they do not speak of any resurrection. The idea that we don't really die comes from Satan as he told the lie to Eve: Gen 3:4 And the serpent said to the woman, You shall not surely die: Adam and Eve did die, and they are still dead until Jesus returns: 1Th 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 1Th 4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. We really need to base our theology on what the Bible says, and not on what people say who are confused.
David Phelps has a great voice. God has truly blessed us with a young man with a great voice, & also a wonderful human being. He's here to stay. We will be all going home someday, Praise his name. Jesus. He is the truth, light, & the way. Love that David Phelps. God bless him & his family.
I heard this song 14 years ago played on the bagpipes at Payne Stewart's funeral. Never knew the name or the words until I got David's CD. Magnificient!
David is the best tenor ever not even close his unworldly range and just perfection though it is insane the voice he has is straight from god best ever.
My sweet Mom went home this morning. We will miss you, beautiful lady. Your love has made us who we are. A little while and we will be joining you there. Isn't it wonderful, love lives forever.
I've listened to your music for years. Love the updates on your wonderful family. Most of all is your sincerity when you are singing for the Lord. We have been so fortunate to be on this earth at the same time. God has blessed you with a heavenly voice with the best of delivery! Going home is so beautiful with words as my cousin is dying of cancer. Your singing of this song gives a peace that shows a bit of heaven to heal our hearts as we go through this time. God Bless you and your family!!💯💝
I have never left as David Phelps concert disappointed. The music from the Voice and commuting every song, WOW! God is praised throughout the whole concert. Then after the concert is done his kindness to honor the audience until the last person WHO WANTS an autograph and had a picture taken with him. Can’t get any better. Waiting for the next concert in Mexia Texas. Thanks David.
David, Thank You for sharing your talent singing, filling our hearts with message. Used your song Going Home for my husband’s funeral. Feeling of peace listening to the words.
I listen to "Going Home " after breakfast to start the day "right" Then at noon to keep the day going in the right direction . Then at night to thank God and David Phelps for the productive day and for a good tomorrow .
David's voice is so beautiful especially singing this!!! I had this song played at both of my parents funerals and I have requested it to be played at mine. Has anyone else noticed that at times when David sings, his voice ceases to sound human but more like a beautiful musical instrument? I can only think of one other person that has that gift---Celine Dion. Just listen very closely to both and see if you feel the same as I. Thanks so much for this video.
I haven't even listened to the song yet, (I have listened to it before just not the video from the DVD) and I am almost crying. I love this song! R.I.P. Pappy!! :'(
He looks fine. Fantastic singer. Dont get any better. Also my moms favorite singer. Said her soul felt lije it was soaring when he sang. God rest her. She is home with her heavenly father. Loved his no more noght song.
Going home, going home,I'm just going home.It's not far, just close by,Through an open door. I'll be goin home.I'll be goin home.I'm goin home, I'm goin home,Lord I'm goin home !
This song is Just perfect. I lost my mom In December My Nephew sang this song.at the funeral It makes me feel like crying everytime i hear it. But ,I know My Mom went home!!!
I have listened to David on this video many times. Last night we heard "Largo" played by an Ukraine orchestra. I was enthralled again. Love David's rendition! Such pathos! ❤️
GOIN HOME ,written by ANTONIN DVORAK as performed live by David Phelps Goin home, goin home,I am goin home.Quiet-like, some still day,I'll be goin home. It's not far, just close by,through an open door.Work all done, care laid by,Goin to fear no more. Mother's there, expecting me,Father's waiting too.Lots of folk gathered there,All the friends I knew. Nothing's lost, all's gain,No more fret nor pain,No more stumbling on the way,No more longing for the day.Going to roam no more.
Ken, thanks so much for the lyric's. I have been searching on the web since I heard it on PBS. This is where I am in this moment. I didn't have to die to go HOME! Some call it nirvana, enlightenment, it's just Heaven! Blessings
My mom wrote down what she wanted done for her funeral last year. She passed away peacefully in her sleep early on Saturday morning March 7, 2020. The family gathered in Arizona from all over to lay Mom to rest with my Dad on the 14th. Her grandsons Andrew and Adam sang Going Home. I was glad that I had already given her life sketch as I was weeping and unable to speak for sever minutes. I love you Mom.
Morning star lights the way. Restless Dreams All Done. Shadows Gone, Break of Day. Real Life Just Begun ! There's no Break, There's no end. I'll Be Living On! Wide Awake With A Smile, Goin On and On! Goin Home, Goin Home, I'm Just Goin Home! It's Not Far, Just Close By, Through an Open Door. I'll Be Goin Home, I'll Be Goin Home! I'm Goin Home, I'm Goin Home, Lord I'm Goin Home !
I was listening to Dvorak's 9th Symphony and this melody was played in one of the slow movements. Didn't know they got their inspiration for this song from Dvorak!

Yes DAVID is amazing. Not only with his beautiful
I love singing with him. He sings in my key. But his tones are deeper and sweeter esp at the end.oh his crescendos!!!!

David is God's gift to all who listens very closely. He is extremely special at expressing God's love.
My mother passed away last Friday. Just after she passed, I turned on the t.v. in her room and David Phelps was singing this song.
So sorry for your loss.... mine passed 26 years ago but losing a mom is never easy no matter how long ago it was...
Convenient story...
I'm so sorry for your loss. My mom just wanted me to listen to this now... she wants it played at her funeral 😥
Whaaauu. And she went home. I have listened to wonderful things about home. She will not want to change a single thing.
Sorry for your loss. 😌🤗

Then after the concert is done his kindness to honor the audience until the last person WHO WANTS an autograph and had a picture taken with him. Can’t get any better. Waiting for the next concert in Mexia Texas. Thanks David.
Hi Peggy hope you're okay?
I'm looking to see my great Redeemer most of all. The light in His glorious eyes!
🕊🕊🕊❤❤❤
David, Thank You for sharing your talent singing, filling our hearts with message.
Used your song Going Home for my husband’s funeral. Feeling of peace listening to the words.
I listen to "Going Home " after breakfast to start the day "right" Then at noon to keep the day going in the right direction .
Then at night to thank God and David Phelps for the productive day and for a good tomorrow .
how are you doing Ruth, hope you're okay?
Beautiful. Praise God
Wonderful. Sang this at my father’s memorial celebration of life service.
how are you doing Robin, hope you're okay?
David's voice is so beautiful especially singing this!!! I had this song played at both of my parents funerals and I have requested it to be played at mine. Has anyone else noticed that at times when David sings, his voice ceases to sound human but more like a beautiful musical instrument? I can only think of one other person that has that gift---Celine Dion. Just listen very closely to both and see if you feel the same as I. Thanks so much for this video.
vcvaldez1941 I recently compared him to a male Celine Dion when explaining him to a friend! Glad I'm not the only that has seen this
vcvaldez1941 I can hear it. 😁
Sam T. Ok
interesting that you would bring up similarity with Celine, both sound nasal at times
I've no ticed the same quality in his singing, it's as though he's singing in more than 1 key ,his voice is God annointed ,love listening to him
He will always be my ultimate tenor. I’m inspired by him everyday.
This is such a moving song, very touching
When he sings this song, I can feel heaven's door open for just a moment and the breath of heaven upon us.
I haven't even listened to the song yet, (I have listened to it before just not the video from the DVD) and I am almost crying. I love this song! R.I.P. Pappy!! :'(
You and me, Shay. This is one of four to be sung at my funeral.
This is a beautiful song and I know my friend that passed is finished her race and is at home. Thanks for sharing

One of my top 5 favorite UA-cam videos, right up there with a couple of the Collingsworths and one of Ethel Waters. Absolutely stunningly beautiful.
Hi Beth hope you're okay??
GOIN HOME ,written by ANTONIN DVORAK
as performed live by David Phelps
Goin home, goin home,I am goin home.Quiet-like, some still day,I'll be goin home.
It's not far, just close by,through an open door.Work all done, care laid by,Goin to fear no more.
Mother's there, expecting me,Father's waiting too.Lots of folk gathered there,All the friends I knew.
Nothing's lost, all's gain,No more fret nor pain,No more stumbling on the way,No more longing for the day.Going to roam no more.
It's been 5 months since my mom passed. I just heard this song..and it brought tears to my eyes.. this song ... is one I pray is how she went.
Beautiful...beautiful. This is amazing and so relaxing. Love it.
Ken, thanks so much for the lyric's. I have been searching on the web since I heard it on PBS. This is where I am in this moment. I didn't have to die to go HOME! Some call it nirvana, enlightenment, it's just Heaven! Blessings
Hi Pamela hope you're okay?
Beautiful. So emotional interpretation. Thank you❤❤❤❤
My mom wrote down what she wanted done for her funeral last year. She passed away peacefully in her sleep early on Saturday morning March 7, 2020. The family gathered in Arizona from all over to lay Mom to rest with my Dad on the 14th. Her grandsons Andrew and Adam sang Going Home. I was glad that I had already given her life sketch as I was weeping and unable to speak for sever minutes. I love you Mom.
Morning star lights the way. Restless Dreams All Done.
Shadows Gone, Break of Day. Real Life Just Begun !
There's no Break, There's no end. I'll Be Living On!
Wide Awake With A Smile, Goin On and On!
Goin Home, Goin Home, I'm Just Goin Home!
It's Not Far, Just Close By, Through an Open Door.
I'll Be Goin Home, I'll Be Goin Home!
I'm Goin Home, I'm Goin Home,
Lord I'm Goin Home !
Would greatly desire to have this played at my funeral service!!!
Actually, the music was composed by Dvorak, but the lyrics are by William Arms Fisher.
Love this!! I’ve listened over and over. David Phelps has such a wonderful voice.
Wow! Great singer!
Love this song, so very, very wonderful!!!
Hi Kristen hope you're okay?
Phelps does it again
He’s a singing angel I believe
E' una grande benedizione sentirlo cantare!!!!God bless you David!!!
This is the song that made me a David Phelps fan!
I am crying as i listen to this song ❤❤
This gives me goosebumps and brings me to tears at the same time.
Hi Mary hope you're okay?
What a voice!, awesome excellence, the music doesn’t overcome the words.
I was listening to Dvorak's 9th Symphony and this melody was played in one of the slow movements. Didn't know they got their inspiration for this song from Dvorak!
Beautifully sung!
I cant wait for the day I get to go home to my real Daddy,my Heavenly Father,my Creator,my Truest LOVE💖🌹
One of the finest singers
