I was paralyzed in bed last year and I heard Jesus say out loud to me - If you believe in me get up and walk💜🕊💜 I got up and not only walked but went for a walk outside. Praise God!!!!! GOD IS ALWAYS WORKING!!!! ✌💜🕊🙏
Halleujah
Ah yes...Hallelujah ✝️♥️🙏🎄✨️
Praise be to God
God is good. Always!
Praise god
Its funny when ever anything actually good happens in my life. Wich is not that often but when it does. Happen in my head i always hear this
❤
That’s nice 🙂
No matter who is president,Jesus Christ is KING.✝
Someone else understands :)
Amen❤🙏
Amen and Amen
He shall reign forever and ever
Yay!!
Amen 🙏
If a mortal can produce this magnificent piece, just emagine what is waiting for us in our FATHERS house.
Yes indeed🙏.
❤
Something more beautiful than we could ever imagine.
🙌🙌🙌🙌👏👏👏🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
The story behind the composing of this is fascinating. Handel fasted and stayed awake during the 21 days it took him to compose the entire thing, had a vision of God on His throne while composing this portion.
One thing that the Mormons did was to understand the need for high quality choir and orchestra because it touches and bangs us n the soul for Gods revelation and spirit n our hearts
That’s one thing that the church I attend doesn’t understand. Nobody wants to put an effort into singing.
I’m Catholic and I’m here for the Mormon Tabernacle Choir because they just do the music justice like no other choir I’ve heard. Magnificent. Just beyond words.
God bless you for such very true insight
I grew singing this in high school. I simply love it! When I regained consciousness after a major medical. My son was playing this at my medside to prove to"medical professionals that's I was responsive and lucid. They wanted to give up on me. But hmy son knew what to do to interest me to wake up. Hallelujah!!
Correct! 💘
The anthem never gets old... God bless the composer
This. Favorite piece of music ever written. Whenever i hear it, i feel Christ in me. I love pop and rock, but it just doesn't have the same effect.
Nobody does this better than the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. The best choir in the world 🌎.
I love this music and I love this choir. I’m a-38-year-old guy from the protestant Nordic country, Finland that is. I resigned from the church 10 years ago but I haven’t lost my faith in Christianity. I really want to be in touch with Jesus Christ and one way to achieve that is listening to your music ❤
It’s done amen
Handel actually cried tears to his Servant upon finishing this oratorio…” God has truly spoken through me on this day!” 1741 AD
Magnificent Choir!!!
Thank you
I love this version, it makes me emotional. I was playing it loud last night on the house speakers and it made me feel like I was there in heaven with the angels and millions of people singing.
soon the whole world will sing this and bow down to the Lord Messiah.
When you see Jesus...and all you can do is fall down and worship Him.
The Mormon Tabernacle choir I believe is one of the greatest choirs in the world.
Jesus Christ is the real KING!!!! FOREVER!! Amen!
I had the privilege to sing the entire Messiah with the Wichita City Choir 34 years ago. One of my most treasured memories.
I sang this with about 1500 other high school students in Germany, in 1974. Every school in the country sent one student to a massive festival, and I was honored to be part of it, as the representative from the US Air Force headquarters high school from Wiesbaden. First and only time in my life I have broken a sweat singing my guts out.
I would've love to have heard that. Is there a recording of it anywhere?
Ha. That's so cool
I too used to sing it in 2014 being a pupil in high school❤. Hello from Burundi, thé beautiful country in Africa!
It’s such a fun song to sing once the part is learned!
If it was the song that caused the king to STAND it must be good
Some day we may hear this actually sung by a Heavenly choir of millions.
Oh l hope so, l hope so!!
Amen, I hope so too
Amen!
And we will be singing with them.
Oh, we will
I'm not Mormon but your choir is a blessing! I get chills every time I hear this song and want to fall on my face before the Lord. For His glorious return I pray...
Amen
The eternal god
Me too!
AMEN!
I'm not Mormon either, but I agree with you. This choir and orchestra is beyond good. They are superb!
Every time the women sing KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS and their pitch gets higher and higher, always touches my soul in ways I can't explain. Simply angelic.
That part always makes the hair on my back and arms stand up.
My sentiments exactly!
I used to could sing that high soprano but as I've gotten older I'm now more of an alto as my voice has gotten lower.
I completely agree. At that point, I feel like heaven and earth touch, and that's where I get a glimpse of heaven. I think Jesus had his hand on Handel's should when he wrote the whole Oratorio.
This might be the single most magnificent song in history.
No might be about it, it is.
It most definitely is
Along with Beethoven' ninth and the song of Joy version
AMEN!!♥️♥️✝️✝️
Yes it is. The king stood when it started. We stand for it ever since then.
This music leaves me with tears in my eyes. Magnificent!
Can’t imagine when we all sing this in heaven for his glory showing him how much we are grateful for saving us. Merci Jesus
Yup
praise God
Amen, thank you Jesus!
I’m agnostic for most of the time in life, but these 4 minutes make me want to pray to the heavens! Just a beautiful choir of talented, beautiful people that makes you think the best of humanity. Thanks for bringing this to us all.
Jesus is truly the Son of God and Saviour and Lord!
Percayalah Kristus adalah Tuhan dan Raja, Juruselamat saudaraku, seluruh kerajaan-kerajaan di dunia akan rumah tapi Kerajaannya tidak berkesudahan
Praise Him and you will find rest in your soul and your life.
If you ever doubted the existence of God this would surely convince you. The pure Divinity in Handel’s music ,the choir, the orchestral arrangement and the sheer scale of this rendition. It’s absolutely stunning!
No one does this piece better than the Mormon Tabernacle Choir! NO ONE!!
Absolutely
I totally agree ten times over!!
Old line Southern Baptist here but I must say that the Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra of the Latter-Day Saints Temple are in my opinion the best in the world. Couple that with what is probably the most magnificent piece of music ever written and you surely must feel that the Heavens have opened up and the angels have joined in.
My parents played this every Christmas to wake everyone up in the morning.
Love it 😂 ❤
I am so grateful to know You Lord! Thank You.....for coming to former lifelong atheist!
Kitty Watson .....You’ll be blessed, forever, here & in Heaven! 🙏🏼 I have received so many many miracles, I will never ever stop believing in Almighty God! 🛐
Christ is Risen today . Hallelujah . the Whole World . Happy Easter to the Whole World . Re Birth to the World.
In a 65 person Church Choir, my first such experience, we were blessed to learn this from our Pastoral Minister, JM ..he put us through the paces for 4 months to sing this at Christmas Eve Mass 2018. I had never been aware of this song. After the Choir sang this, ( I was in as a Bass 1 ) for our congregation, I, we, many seniors, kindda fell back on the bench seats in the Choir Loft, just winded and near tears that we pulled it off. The Choir Pastoral Minister bid us to stand, from below in the Church, 300 fellow parishioners applauded. I looked at my feet in humility. We had put in 4 hrs a week for 4 months, I could feel Heaven and the smile of Jesus and my deceased family.
Now, if I listen to Mormon Tabernacle Choir sing this, I cry.
God prevailed.
Covid flees,
Maybe soon we sing in Choir again.
Handel would be proud listening to this
Best choir on the planet. And I'm an atheist. It is truly to awesome to experience this in the tabernacle, which I have. What an amazing space of pure acoustic bliss. My music and choir teacher in high school was a soprano member and her voice was so beautiful and powerful. She was a wonderful woman and music teacher.
The mighty god!
May God bless you..❤❤❤
You may not believe in God but He believes in you.
This incredible piece of music makes me want to jump for joy. I heard the Choir sing this live and it was electrifying! 20,000 people stood up at the end and gave them a standing ovation. Gives me goosebumps to remember that experience.
This song played when my Dad went to heaven in 2006.
Sorry for your loss.
Love it. Wish I could hit the Love it button 1,000 times.
President John F Kennedy was assassinated on my 5th birthday in 1963. Although i didn't understand everything that was going on, i remember hearing this hymn during his funeral service. Even at 5 years old, i felt sadness hearing it. That has stayed with me all my now 66 years. Each birthday, i remember. The effect on a 5 year old...
I can only imagine how glorious it shall be when the Lord shall return and a song like unto this shall be played for the King of Kings
The lyrics are, in fact, taken from the 15th chapter of Revelation, if I'm not mistaken..
That is correct, Lee.
Actually Bryce and Lee, it's from Isaiah 9:6, word for word. It's beautiful!
Lars Smith Nope. You're thinking of "For unto Us a Child Is Born." That's a different piece from Handel's "Messiah." The lyrics to the "Hallelujah Chorus" aer taken from Revelation 11:15, Revelation 19:6, and Revelation 19:16. So I was crediting the wrong chapter, but the right book.
My apologies. I was mistaken. It is from Revelations. I was thinking of For Unto Us A Child Is Born.
My favorite Christian song ever!
Handel must have been inspired by God when he wrote Messiah. Because when you listen to it, all of the songs, especially this Hallelujah Chorus, just feel like the kind of songs the hosts of heaven would sing when they raise their voices to praise their Lord and Redeemer.
This was my dad's favorite hymn partly because he learned to play the organ in Holland in early 1940 at 13 yrs. old. The same organ Mozart and Mendellson trained on.
I sang this in High School, every year for 3 years. My high school had 12,000 students (larger than some universities), and 4 choruses, 2 orchestras, and one band. The auditorium was called The Chapel and had stained glass windows, because it had once been part of a Dutch Reformed Church, built in the 1600's, across from the school. Our Christmas concerts were glorious. All the choruses surrounded the listeners, (1 on stage, and 3 in the balconies) and while they each had their own Christmas music to sing....this song, was sung by all. It filled the chapel with such glory...and was so moving, those memories still make me tear up with joy, 60 years later.
My Catholic school choir sang this at every Christmas concert. We closed the show with it. We were good, but not Mormon Tabernacle Choir good.
God bless the man that composed this anthem
The mighty god! Amen!
Composed by George Frideric Handel. ~
Alleluia Alleluia God bless Him more 🙏 ❤️ ❤
Nothing like the sound of a mass choir 🙏
Even though a Christian Orthodox, I have to give it to these Mormon Choristers.. Their voices are pure heaven and take the celebration of Christmas to another level!
Congratulations to all involved in this video. God Bless!
Leporello Gatos I agree!!
And no one in the choir gets paid. They all volunteer their time.
@@perrymasonxix5954 from.Prophets ,Apostle a whatever position in Church is no pay at all.
I love it too, once upon a time, when I was young, I was mormon, but now I know that music is vibration of matter, if there is no matter,( air), music is impossible, then in heaven...
@@luizantoniokesselring6831 What makes you think you can know anything of heaven? Many have heard heavenly choirs singing. What do we know? Don't lose your faith in God because of ignorance of His reality. Man's is the failure of intellect, not our Creator.
✨Come Lord Jesus, come. God's Will be done in all things. IJNIP, Amen.✨✝️🙏🏼💖
Hallelujah! Amen.🙌🏻
We need God so much now i believe he works for us all and will lead this world to a lasting peace
Whenever I listen to this chorus,
I feel like I am in Heaven with Jesus with a big smile on his face to spread infinity
My only hope is to hear this hymn to be sing by all the righteous people to receive Jesus from heaven in the second coming.
Of course you will. See you there!
Praise the Lord Jesus Christ!!! King of kings and Lord of lords!
Beautiful!!!
I will love this song forever There is something about this song its always made me have chills and happiness and God is in charge It always will
I hope this is the song God had the angels blast when Christ descends it will be the most miraculous event ever in mankind and shall ever be for the rest of eternity! Praise God for his amazing choir! Praise the king of kings!
Excellent
hearty stirring worship
Even when you realize, that all Guardian angels of God are beside of you,
ready to fight against the evel in the dark of desparation and grieve
with his love and the holy spirit which enlights you suddenly like a flash
I sang this with about 1500 other singers in a massive hall at the state hall in the German state of Hesse. I think it was the Kurhaus. First and only time in my life I broke into a hard sweat singing a song. It was ... stunning.
I can picture JESUS RETURN ON EARTH AND THIS BEING THE SANG , WOW !!! GOD BLESS AMERICA !!!
I am Christian .. im not really into gospel music but this song sends my pores raising because its such a powerful song ❤
Tears in my eyes listening to this majestic piece- brilliant composer, Hayden, & this beautiful & gifted choir & orchestra. Couldn't get any better! I never tire of listening to this piece.
It’s Handel lol
The composer is Handel, not Hayden.
I have never heard such a high quality level . This is a miracle of perfection. I am not a mormon but I bless you all for this gift.
The mighty god!
I have always loved this song it gives me peace
Its just not Christmas until the Tabernacle Choir sings "Unto us a Child is Born" and "the Hallelujah Chorus" .
Quite possibly the most magnificent piece of music ever written. It's full of Truth and Glory. And how the Tabernacle choir does it is amazing.
They sure know how to tell God we love him while bringing joy to mankind at the same time
My spirit leaps every time I hear this. Praise to the King of Kings and Lord of Lords! Phenomenal
The pinnacle of western civilization!
If ANY song were DIVINELY INSPIRED, it would be this one.
It always brings tears to my eyes and joy to my heart, at the same time.
This song plays in my head every Friday at 5 p.m.
so true
😂😂
Sehr schön
YES
LOL! The weekend is here.
I generally have a dim view of humanity, but to think that a man could compose this wonderful tribute to the King of Kings raises it a little in my view. Holy Spirit inspired no doubt.
There is hope for the future with like minded good people.
Que benção d o céu direto para terra maravihha riquezas divina não tem quem não goste.
In just 24 days no less! Definitely inspired
I wish I was one of them. God bless them abundantly
Probably the most heavenly and uplifting chorale ever composed. If all liturgical music sound as good as Hallelujah, then attendances in houses of worship would never decline. Kudos to the late, great German-born composer, G.F. Handel, Hallelujah!
Heavenly music has descended on earth. HALLELUJAH INDEED
So beautiful
Praise God
Was grateful and blessed to sing Hallelujah Chorus for so many times when i was still singing in the choir.
Mahni hnam ṭawngin comment zâwk teh ang:
He hla 'Haleluiah chorus' (Heldel messaiah) hi kan Lalpa lo kal leh hunah (Lord is coming) vân mipuite khian an rawn sak thlâk ka ring. Van ramah pawh he hla hi chu kan sak ka ring.
I may be Lutheran, but this choir and orchestra performs this song beautifully
The Mormon Tabernacle Choir knocks it out of the park every time! Nobody does it better. ❤❤❤
Still the greatest piece of music ever composed. No wonder the King jumped to his feet while this was being performed for the first time. I've song this song my whole life and know all the vocal parts. It never gets old, it still makes me want to jump to my feet and celebrate life. My Christmas is not complete until I listen to this choir's Christmas songs.
I learned this in high school c/o 1991 and I still love this song to this day.
Wonderfull
There will never be a celebration as great as Christmas in the world💯💯💯 what a beautiful song 🌹
Just a stunning performance! When I was in high school, our choir's tradition for years( and to this day, I believe) was that the final song of our Christmas concert was this one. But not only the choir sang, anyone from the audience was invited to come forward around the stage and help perform it. We had a small town high school, about 400 kids total. So, many people from town, not just parents, would fill the whole front of the auditorium. A choir of about 40 or 50 kids became an instant, multi-generational, community celebration of Christmas! It is one of my best high school memories! We rocked the place!
Yes ours did this as well. All 4 of the choirs/choruses, the whole symphony & band would play & I remember everyone even the whole audience singing along. It's such a powerful masterpiece that brings so much joy to everyone in the building & to this day whenever I hear it I get tears & goosebumps & my heart is filled with the Holy Spirit I can just imagine the angels in heaven rejoicing when they hear everyone singing it!!
Jesus shall reign forever and ever, amen!
This is the best alleluia I ever heard honestly 🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬 love you all keep up the spirit
This made me cry so much! King of Kings and Lord of Lords....so amazing!!
This brings uncontrollable tears of joy to my eyes. Fall on your knees and rejoice, we are saved!
Me too!
It does
Amen
AMEN. GOD IS GOOD✝️
The best choir ever.....God bless what a majestic performance.....
I just don't know why but this helped me out during an anxiety attack and it seems weird but I was able to just listen to the music and focus on singing this song.
Same here
The last time I sang this, was in an LDS service Christmas program. Though as difficult a song as it is, once you belt out the song, you can't help but get choked up with tender tears for the love of God, and the "Christkind". It's the close "and he shall reign forever, and ever... HALLELUJAH!" that gets me to break down.
Doesn't matter how long it's been
This song is seared into the memories of people who sang it 😌
Without a doubt.. my college oratorio choir performed Handel’s Messiah in 1975 (1st. Alto here!) and I remember it like it was yesterday.
It's not Christmas until I hear this at least once or twice! Praise the Lord! Jesus is Lord and King! Merry Christmas!
The kingdom of this world is become the kingdom of our God and His Christ. Hallelujah ❤
Wow.. the Mormon Tabernacle choir has always taken my breath away!
Im catholic but this is excellent.
I was so privileged to hear them rehearse in salt lake city.
While listening to this magnificent choir singing praises to my Lord, Jesus Christ, I had chills running up and down my spine....my heart and soul resonated with love for Him...thank you!
Juta Semmel don't know if recorded in tabernacle or conference center. We don't do ovations at end. May have been a recording session
When I was in pre-med at the University of Utah, I also had a job at a hotel across from Temple Square…which has the “Tab” choir. Thursday mornings were full practice. So I would sit and listen….”Ordinary looking” folks would walk in, chatting and laughing. Then with one voice and the powerful pipe organ, music and voices would join as one. The Tabernacle built 150 years ago with perfect acoustics. If you ever go West, go to Temple Square, learn about the journey with handcarts through the plains and mountains, architecture of the city. Salt Lake City is a beautiful city.
I’m blessed and touched by watching this for a moment🥹
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
For the Lord God omnipotent reigneth
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
For the Lord God omnipotent reigneth
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
King of kings and Lord of lords
King of kings and Lord of lords
And He shall reign forever and ever
Forever and ever
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Mormon Tabernacle Choir is fantastic........incomparable.
"I did think I did see all Heaven before me, and the great God Himself."
The words of George Frideric Handel just as he had finished composing the Hallelujah Chorus, his face awash with tears.
Genial
That perfectly describes what I imagined the creator of this magnificent paean would behold upon it's completion. Wonderful that it's true.
Alleluia
Divino
...and in only 24 days.
I belonged to my H.S. Chorus back in 1958 and we did this. My oldest sister and my 5th sister were opera singers too. This sends chills up my spine.
