'Jerusalem' by English composer Hubert Parry was composed in 1916 to the words of William Blake's poem 'And did those feet in ancient time'. It rapidly gained huge popularity which it retains to this day, and is sometimes used as England's 'unofficial' national anthem. The piece has a fascinating history which includes connnections with the women's sufferage movement.
The Royal Choral Society was the first choir to sing this work in the Royal Albert Hall in 1916.

When I am down and out thinking that the crazies are creating a total dystopian world with no sign of hope, I read the lyrics and hear the music, which relaunches my energy to HOPE FOR THE
FUTURE
Always brings a tear to the eye. England’s unofficial national anthem.
THIS SHOULD BE OUR NATIONAL ANTHEM.
So very, very beautiful. Lump in throat and tears in eyes beautiful!
Everytime I hear it the same 😢😂😂
GLORIOUS! ABSOLUTELY GLORIOUS! THANK YOU!
Sends shivers down to your feet .
Beautiful! ❤ Sung this in Slough , UK, junior school in 1950s. Best of times.
greatest song! when people know clearly and totally the real meaning of this greatest song, it will change the world, and the world will not only become better, but become the most beautiful kingdom of God.
I always thought it was an Emerson , Lake and Palmer song ! Now I know better . God Bless England .
Ohhhhhhh😪👏👏👏👏👏👏wonderful 👏👏👏👏👏wonderful.
What's not to like, brilliant
Long live ENGLAND
Long live our Homeland
This should be the national anthem for the UK
It always stirs me to thought as to how it, the original poem, was written in the very early 19th century. It then went on to stir a nation and then provide the inspired title of one the great films. Cheers!
Just magnificent
absolutely lovely
so moving and sincere
as an american, i'd like to submit a version that americans and citizens of the commonwealth might sing :
And did those Feet in ancient Time walk upon England's Mountains green
And was the holy Lamb of G-d on England's pleasant Pastures seen
And did the Countenance Divine shine forth upon her clouded Hills
And was Jerusalem builded there, among those dark satanic Mills
...
Bring me my Bow of burning Gold
Bring me my Arrows of Desire
Bring me my Spear, O Clouds unfold
Bring me my Chariot of Fire
I will not cease from mental Fight
Nor shall the sword sleep in my Hands
'Til we have built Jerusalem
In England's green and pleasant Lands
イギリスに『エレサレム』という素晴らしい愛国歌があり、国民が老若男女揃って合唱している姿を、非常に羨ましく思います❗😊 日本より愛を込めて…😔

Actually I had received it from an Anglican Digest back in 1980's. It only has been recent Jerusalem' has been introduced via CZcams that I've been fascinated but what cemented the glue was a feature the West Point glee club sang it in respect to our British allies which had received raves all over the world.
Jerusalem by Sir Hubert Parry (1848-1918)🇬🇧🏴
And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon England's mountains green?
And was the Holy Lamb of God
On England's pleasant pastures seen?
And did the Countenance Divine
Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded here
Among those dark Satanic mills?
Bring me my bow of burning gold:
Bring me my arrows of desire:
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.🏴🇬🇧
❤️ 🙌 reminds me of our school assemblies, lovely memories
Thank you!
Wonderful hymn. We don’t sing it so much in the Colonies, alas.
Right now, what I would give for some green & pleasant land, although I live in a place nicknamed "Jerusalem on the Brazos" (a.k.a. Waco, Texas). Great performance, BTW.
Come on England 🇬🇧
What a tune😓👍👍
Wonderful
brings tears to my eyes, and me a yank....
wonderful
Memories of school in the 1980s. Vincit qui patitur.
❤❤❤
Voices well blended.
Actually the version I've read is legendary that involves before his revelation Jesus Christ who had been hired as carpenter on trading ship which had conducted business on Britannia. When he had introduced his gospel to the pagan world. It wasn't until Joseph of Armethia brought the news about the death and resurrection of Jesus and brought the chausabil from the Last Supper to Brittania. It would produce very early Christiendom to where the Abbeys started way before Saint Augustine arrived to bring forth The Roman Church rites. This would include the Arthurian quest to locate Holy Grail from Camelot.
God Bless You And Your Scholarship. Couldn't Agree More. 🇬🇪 Where Can I Learn More?
HALELUYA
It's actually Alleluia..
Fun fact, used in conjunction with stone Henge(GMT) the English spear have the power over the weather.
it's always cloudy in Britain nowadays because we can't be trusted with our spears anymore 😂😂
🇨🇴🇬🇧👍
By William Blake.
And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon Englands mountains green:
And was the holy Lamb of God,
On Englands pleasant pastures seen!
And did the Countenance Divine,
Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded here,
Among these dark Satanic Mills?
Bring me my Bow of burning gold:
Bring me my arrows of desire:
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 Englands green & pleasant Land
Is this sung primarily in Anglican churches? Or also in Catholic?
State Farm is there

This comes from the theory among some ancient historians that the Ten Tribes of Israel who were exiled by the Assyrians in 750 BC migrated to Europe, and therefore Europeans are actually the blood descendants of the Biblical Israelites who crossed the Red Sea out of Egypt.
I think rather that 'Jerusalem' is a metaphorical reference, theorizing that Jesus may have visited England during an unknown time in his life between his childhood and adult years. Hence, "And did those feet in ancient time walk upon England's mountains green", is in reference to his potential visitation, and describes a sort of spiritual idealism with his work in the proverbial Holy Land as written in the Bible.
No.
I read that it's about a legend that Joseph of Armethea who gave his tomb to Jesus was Jesus' uncle. He had tin mines in England and brought Jesus to visit England when Jesus was a lad.
@@barbaraferron7994 It's interesting that the Israelites would have had any ties to the British Isles in the first place. Why would that be?
The English suffix "ain" means land. "Mount-ain" Terr-ain" etc. "Brit" is the Hebrew word for Covenant, so Brit-ain means "Covenant Land".
The name of the tribe of Dan is all over Europe too. The vowels were not written in the Hebrew so they are interchangable. Denmark, the Danube river, Dunkirk, Dun Leoghaire etc. Den, Dan, Dun - countless places have that name.
The Scandinavian alphabet is taken from the hewbrew alphabet. The Welsh language is very close to the Hebrew language. So many things seem to tie together, but it's not 100% certain.
So I have heard.
