A portion of the above song, stating around the 3 minute mark, has been used in various religious hymns over the years. I've long since lost touch with (or maybe turned my back on) God, but I ran across this video while listening to the above version of Jupiter, and found it moving so wanted to share it. Performed by The Lyceum Philharmonic, a youth orchestra from the American Heritage School in Utah, but it's the video as much as the music that touched me.


"and whether our tomorrows
be filled with good or ill,
we'll triumph through our sorrows
and rise to bless you still"
- Michael Perry: O God Beyond All Praising
