Voices-only Wednesday: ‘On Zion’s Glorious Summit,’ ‘Our God, He is Alive’ and ‘Hush’

Welcome to Voices-only Wednesday, when we patrol the Internet to bring you the best a cappella videos we can find.

A few days ago I posted this video from the Oklahoma Christian University lectures. “Musicianary” and Acappella Ministries founder Keith Lancaster led attendees in a rousing rendition of good ol’ 728b itself, “Our God, He is Alive.” (I recorded it on my phone, so apologies for the quality.)

Of course, ravenous VOW fans can never have enough a cappella.

A reader pointed out that I should have captured the equally awesome rendition of “On Zion’s Glorious Summit” that preceded “Our God.” Alas, I did not. So, as a consolation prize, here’s a rendition of the song from Lancaster’s “Praise and Harmony” series. (Notice the Lancaster-esque tempo changes. Very nice!)

Searching the web, I also came across this version on David Killingsworth’s YouTube channel. It’s from a gospel meeting in Alabama in 2012, though I’m not seeing any specifics on where. (Fill me in if you can.)

Also from the lectures a couple of days ago, here’s my bootleg recording of Acappella’s “Hush,” always a crowd favorite.
