Stanford Olsen is a Mormon operatic tenor.
YouTube said I needed to watch Dvorak's "Coming Home", so I did, a few times. The smile on the singer's face - Sissel - was strange, as if she were revealing a secret. The message is - everyone will be in Heaven.
There's no break, ain't no end
Jus' a livin' on
Wide awake with a smile
Going on and on
Going home, going home
I'm jus' going home
It's not far, yes close by
Through an open door
I'm jus' going home
Another song in contention, is "The Holy City." Stanford Olsen sang the song, which was written by the author of "Oh Danny Boy" - Frederic Weatherly.
I saw the Holy City
Beside the tideless sea
The light of god was on its streets
The gates were open wide
And all who would might enter
And no one was denied.
The two singers seduce the listeners with thoughts of Universalism. Someone left the gates open.
