That was beautiful. What a great end to a cool and snowy day.

I've watched this quite a few times and It's become my anthem for this Christmas season. Children are what Christmas is about.

In seminary class it was being taught, the more you study and learn, the closer to God you get... me being me I had to say, God's closest soul is a 5 year old singing 'Jesus loves me this I know'... it's all down hill from there and the farther you move from that spot, the answer is obvious... These kids stand in God's hand.

This.

I have watched that a couple times a day since posted.

It's what it's all about. Gives me faith that good still exists...

In a world where events are so hateful, this is a ray of sunshine.

I remember before I watched this video for the first time, I was just hoping these autistic children did a somewhat coherent job singing so they weren't ridiculed or laughed at. Never in my wildest imagination did I expect to hear what I did and that's what made it so powerful to me. Just so impossibly magical.


Merry Christmas to everyone!

Merry Christmas to you and all.

PS This video is making the rounds on the MSM now, at least on Fox News. Not sure if the other news shows have it on.

I've heard about this baby boy
Who's come to earth to bring us joy
And I just want to sing this song to you
It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
With every breath I'm singing Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

A couple came to Bethlehem
Expecting child, they searched the inn
To find a place for You were coming soon
There was no room for them to stay
So in a manger filled with hay
God's only Son was born, oh Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

The shepherds left their flocks by night
To see this baby wrapped in light
A host of angels led them all to You
It was just as the angels said
You'll find Him in a manger bed
Immanuel and Savior, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

A star shown bright up in the east
To Bethlehem, the wisemen three
Came many miles and journeyed long for You
And to the place at which You were
Their frankincense and gold and myrrh
They gave to You and cried out Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

I know You came to rescue me
This baby boy would grow to be
A man and one day die for me and you
My sins would drive the nails in You
That rugged cross was my cross, too
Still every breath You drew was Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Thanks for posting this TRH. We needed to know these aren't the Leonard Cohen lyrics. And we need to know the message in these words.

Right. For at least the next few days, this should be pinned.

Right. That was my purpose. His, although starting with something about Kind David, were rather profane, while these (those sung here by little Kaylee Rogers) are clearly Christian themed, focusing on Christ's birth and its significance for believers.

Was just reading some horrid news elsewhere and felt a need to come back here. Grown mean should not be dropping tears on their desk. What a jewel!

Thanks to the OP for posting. Listened multiple times. Teared up multiple times. Shared it on FB as well.
