"When I was a senior in high school, I was a member of the All-County Chorus. At our final performance, we did the exact same rendition of the Battle Hymn as what is sung here. Then, as a teacher, I watched as the choir at our junior high performed it the same way. The song will always be one of my favorite pieces of music, and this rendition is the best there is."

But I just noticed that it is on youtube - here
