Old primitive baptist tune. I have sang it with this exact tune in little church houses all over the mountains. I think of it as a prayer to the Lord asking for very high blessings. May it please him to grant this that the songs asks for to suffering zion wherever she be. A peaceful hour in which to cross over. I have listened to this version many times, it comforts my soul.

Beautiful! I sang this hymn at the Florida Fellowship Meeting of Primitive Baptists in Macclenney Florida in January and loved it! What a wonderful way to pass to our home in Heaven!

Thinking of Larry Gordon, who just passed, and was so instrumental in founding Village Harmony--certainly this was one of the many beautiful and tender songs which sung him on his way home....

"Calvin Zenner of Company G, received a fatal wound. I carried him back. A number of soldiers gathered around the comrade and I offered a prayer for him. He talked to all of us and said:" Now boys, let us all at once more sing a song together.' And he struck up the hymn, 'O sing to Me of Heaven.' Then he said: Good-bye boys, I am going home. I am mustered out.' And he closed his eyes and ceased to breathe." - John Milton Whitehead Civil war soldier at the battle of Stones River

7:47 I truly love this group. You all have beautiful harmony together. I can listen to this Hymm over and over. I played ‘Oh sing me of Heaven’ at my husband funeral. May the Lord continue to bless you. How can I buy a cd?

Doesn't get much better than this. You guys killed it, can't help but smile like a dork. Aurelia- this song/arrangement is so stunning in just about any formation. ( Although Village Harmony & all those Associated do a pretty damn good job! ;) )

This video touched my heart... so beautiful! Are there any other videos of this group singing? I love the song after this one, too, about West Virginia! It seemed to me the angels themselves were singing. Thanks for posting. :)

this is one of the musical performances you cannot reproduce. Just call it a one-hit wonder....but still amazing.
