Slight thread creep. Joe, the music of "The Holy City," words by F.E. Weatherly, music by Stephen Adams, (1892) is in the Lester Levy collection.

(and do a title search for Holy City).

I agree, it's brilliant. Could almost get one believing in God. I remember it from when I was a kid. (Not 1892 - but I did get to see Paul Robeson when I was a lad, doing Othello at Stratford).

Sorry no blue clicky, one day....
