    This is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. To think what hell these children might come from, and to see how happy they are to be on stage singing, is one of the most powerful things I've ever seen.

    I'm hosting three girls from the choir right now, and they aren't just wonderful singers--they're the most incredible kids I've ever met. So sweet and inspirational. :)

      Oh that’s so awesome:) I bet that was such an amazing experience for both you and the girls! I know this comment is extremely late but I couldn’t help it. This was such a magical performance. I revisit it often.. and I hope they do as well- they should be extremely proud of themselves. They bring tears to my eyes every time I listen to it.♥️

      ***** These aren't homeless kids. If you adopt any of these kids you are taking them away from their parents.. Africa isn't a desolate cesspool of aids and homeless kids with guns.

    • @Jeanjellybean13
      @Jeanjellybean13 9 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      This choir was started for kids who didn't have homes. I still wish I could have them. I know Africa is not full of terror and poverty but there is still a ton of poverty and war in the country.

    @dthielsche 16 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    There is nothing faked in this video, neither the unbelievable joy the kids are havin nor how touched Josh is by them. I love this video more than any other one on youtube I have seen yet. And of course it made me cry aswell. Awesome performance and it´s true what two other users were saying: nothing compares to young voices´ eonthusiasm and that these kids are feeling more joy than any 1st world child could feel or express.

  • @docrichie9
    @docrichie9 14 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    These kids just look so joyful....their radiant smiles beam a light across the heavens. Their obvious joy and love of life are inspirational. They seem to have a depth of appreciation that we, often spoiled, Americans can only aspire to achieve.
    Please, PLEASE teach YOUR children what these precious little angels already have!!

  • @tachoman1396

    When I hear this beautiful song it makes me weep ...I lost both my parents six years apart, which left a huge whole in my heart....hearing this song reminds me of how the Lord carried me through it all and that too makes me cry how faithful he is to those that seek HIM...

  • @Bensmithstation60

    Those kids go on tour for a year at a time. my church has had them come quite a few times. they're amazing bunch of kids. they sing AND act like angels. some of the stories they lived would break your heart but they're so happy to be alive and be singing. its a great group. If you EVER have the chance to see the African Children's Choir; i STRONGLY recommend it.

    I'm in tears of Joy to hear Josh whenever he sings this "hymn", also giving to others of himself, his faith as the composer of these words. Why ? I feel he wrote this as my life giving story, (also because Josh too was raised in the Episcopal Church family and God's Communion of humanity in his early voice training, Josh Groban's gift he shares with those who benefit from God's. gift of heavenly Love and Heart's longing for all of us; no matter what our own story is or was). Allow me in the Episcopal Church to share this as well, .........it's true. Thank You Josh, another artistic voice for us. + + +.

    I remember seeing the African Choir come to my church to sing when I was a kid! Years later when I was in College taking a summer Music Class to try to earn extra credit. I was struggling with a Potential F. When I had to present my Final exam on any kind of music topic, my Mom suggested I write and present my Paper on the African Choir! She told me how this program helped turn many of these kids lives around after they witnessed horrible things. This program helped turn their lives around when they got older! This presentation project brought my final Grade up to a B+ at the end!

    I just found out the African Children's Choir is going to perform at a Church in Akron Ohio! I am planning on going, but I want to call the Church if I need to make a Reservation, which is November 5th, 2014.
