    Rest in Love Camelia Johnson. You are the only person I've ever heard sing this beautiful song live and for that I'm blessed. Thank God for your gift that I was so lucky enough to experience up close. Sing on with the Angels.

    Will there be another Camelia Johnson. I think not. What a voice from Heaven of pure divinity, soul and texture. I love it. There is no justice in the music world when someone with such talent is not up there with the stars. Courtney Abel

    There will never be a voice like Camellia's! What a presence! What a talent! What an awesome personality. I am so glad she left us this gift of voice. I only wish there were tons of CDs I could run out and purchase in order to keep this greatness near me forever. I'll miss you sorely, my friend.

    Captivating. I was looking for a version of this song to share with a friend as part of a joke... she was talking about a return to "normal" (we work in healthcare), so I just sent this link as a response.
    I keep coming back to it, though. I can't not, this performance is hypnotizing.

    This is wonderful... who is this singer, and why can't I find anything about her on the internet? Aside from a NYT review from 1994 and a handful of other youtube videos, there's nothing out there!

    Will there really be a "Morning"?
    Is there such a thing as "Day"?
    Could I see it from the mountains
    If I were as tall as they?
    Has it feet like Water lilies?
    Has it feathers like a Bird?
    Is it brought from famous countries [Does it come from famous places]
    Of which I have never heard?
    Oh some Scholar! Oh some Sailor!
    Oh some Wise Men from the skies!
    Please to tell a little Pilgrim
    Where the place called "Morning" lies!
