For those who care, allmusic.com offers the following context of the song which was likely composed to consecrate the rebuilding of St. Rupert Church on the Rhine in the year 1150. (The church had been sacked by Vikings some 250 years prior). “Both music and text of O Jerusalem build, step by step and stone upon stone, to a soaring architectural climax. Both open at daybreak, as it were, with the textual image of dawn breaking on the walls of the heavenly Jerusalem, which is set to three repetitions of an understated chant melody, low in its plagal range. In the next stanzas, the poetess superimposes the dawn of Rupert's earthly boyhood with an image of him, sanctified, shining in the gems of the Holy city; he cannot be "hidden by the fools" who sacked his first church. At this time, the melody dramatically opens into the aspirant upper reaches of its unusual mode.

The allusive collage continues in the next group of stanzas, as the poetic imagery blossoms into a series of references to Rupert's "true showing" (showing his relics), to the nubile flowers of the Song of Songs, and to pagan dances transformed to angelic dance; the melody now ranges widely through its compass. The climax arrives as Hildegard describes the living stones, the Christians upon which the new Jerusalem is founded despite their sinful and earthly nature. As dawn breaks upon this city, Hildegard's melody breaks its bounds and expands upwards into the "authentic" mode; as the lowly humans are transformed, the music itself mutates. May God and St. Rupert allow those who trust in them so to ascend to blessedness”.

[Q] There is a legend that either Eric Clapton or Jimi Hendrix—the name changes—was asked how do they feel to be the greatest guitar player in the world? Whoever it was said, “I don’t know. Go ask Phil Keaggy.” I’ve heard that story before.

[Phil] Actually, the myth is more popular than I am, the urban legend that it is. No, it was never said by either of them. There are echelons of artists up there. Just like there are classic movies. Then you have “B” movies or you have unusual documentaries over there to the side. I’m kind of like an unusual documentary when it comes to my contribution because I’m just what I am, and I try to do the best I can at what I do. I want to thank God. I want to thank the people who have enjoyed and loved what I’ve done musically, artistically, and, hopefully, in a ministry sense, too.
