"Jerusalem" performed by the Cadet Glee Club of West Point
Музыка
I included this song in the repertoire of "Stand Ye Steady" to honor our steadfast friends and allies from the UK. If ever a song embodied a call to action, this is it! Accompanying the Cadets is the world's largest church organ exquisitely played by Craig Williams. The ending chords resonate with devine majesty as Craig "pulls out all the stops".
The performance of "Jerusalem" can be seen and heard on the DVD and CD "Stand Ye Steady - Songs of Courage and Inspiration" available at www.standyesteady.com (in 5.1 Dolby Digital) and honoring all US Armed Forces past and present. Directing and video editing by Doug Coppi of Curtain Call Productions, www.curtaincallproductions.com... .

As a proud Englishman I can say I'm truly honoured to hear this song sung by our brother's and sisters across the sea. It means a great deal, thank you
Friends, brothers, sisters of the US armed forces. Greetings. I served 25 years in the Royal Navy as a rating and as an officer. While an officer, I was privileged to work alongside magnificent men and women of the US armed forces. My respect grew long. My respect grew true. We are, surely, brothers and sisters in arms. It is my honour to refer to you as such. No foe shall prevail.
In a mad world we need our friends, from England may I say God Bless America

@@gordonlandreth9550 I love "Jerusalem" -it is a Great Powerful song--I play and sing it all the time, for years now...BUT Music can (and is) used as a form of Mind Control. It's WW1, English soldier hears "Jerusalem", he gets "triggered" and wants to kill Germans (even innocent ones)--for the "Patriotic" cause and for Jolly Good Ole England and for "Those Feet in ancient times" .....That's why the British Army chose it....they know what they're doing.
I served seven years in the British Army, and, after a while, sixteen years in the Royal Navy. Jerusalem makes me think of my time in the services, of my mates that I served with, and most of all, the green and beautiful land that I joined up to protect. I have visited the United States many times and have met very many lovely people there, indeed, made very many good friends there. We and the Americans all share the same values. To hear Jerusalem sung by the future Officers and Commanders of the United States forces, enforces, in my view, the notion that we will never, ever, be apart. No one will separate us. Ever.

Bring me my spear! O clouds, unfold! Bring me my Chariot of fire! I will not cease from mental fight, Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand, Till we have built Jerusalem In England's green and pleasant land.

@john jack Many Americans are not aware that England is but part of the U.K.
I am an American who served with British troops in Bosnia, Iraq and Afghanistan and was proud to call them "brother," "comrade in arms" and more importantly, "FRIEND!" I was very moved the first time I heard this hymn in the movie Chariots of Fire in 1982. I am an Episcopalian (member of the Anglican Communion) and in '82 did not know this was really a hymn about England, but now know better. That doesn't change the fact that this a beautiful hymn, one filled with emotion and one that also reminds the English people just how special they are and how important their place in the world and its history is. I know there are many Brits who hate us, along with the French, Germans, Aussies (including the one who posted vulgar comments here about both our countries) and others. That doesn't change the facts that there is a truly "special relationship" between the British people, their nation and the USA. I do dislike when Brits post hateful commentaries here and have said so, but that also will NEVER change the fact that I was proud to serve alongside them men and women of the British forces and if ever I have to go to war again, and cannot do so with my fellow Americans, would NEVER hesitate to serve alongside my British comrades in arms. I wish the men and women of Her Majesty's Forces all the best in 2014 and the best for the people of the United Kingdom.

@@kchmyy Yea, you should love it when your greatest ally sells your military tech to china or tries to sell nukes to apartheid south africa, or sinks your ship, or drags you into conflicts because it's fifth column propaganda group has insane amounts of influence on US domestic and foreign politics. An amazing friendship indeed....

We owe our nation's heritage and beginning to our original Motherland, England. it is right and just to recognize the bond with which we will eternally share and we should always keep the ties that bind us strong.
Greetings from the UK to our cousins across the Pond. In the last 24 hours, in the Middle East, American and British aircrews have flown into combat, side by side once again. This rendition of 'Jerusalem' by the cadets of West Point is utterly beautiful.
been watching an article on Blake on BBC South so needed a youtube fix of Jerusalem and up pops this gem brought a lump to the throat of this gnarled old cove well done West Point - allies forever
A truly special relationship, greetings to our American cousins
A truly powerful and beautiful song! I wish England would rediscover this spirit.
I will confess that I came to this video merely looking for a good version of this tune. What I found was not only an excellent rendition of an excellent hymn, but also an outpouring of love between two nations in the comments. I am astounded. God save The Queen
Magnificent. God bless America.🇺🇸🇬🇧

Scott Steiner The US is becoming increasingly isolated on many of it's foreign policy stance, it is viewed worldwide as the greatest threat to peace. It's economy, as well as the entire financialised western economy is entirely unsustainable. It won't be long until all that's left for the US is a big pile of weapons.

+Edward Nigma stop being an absolutist pessimist, besides, we happen to be punching above our weight right now in everything, and maintaining a good position depends on as little opposition and good relations as possible with the other powers.
