Just thinking about this song can put a smile on anyone's face. In this video, a Christian family sings the classic hymn, “Do Lord, Oh Do Lord (Away Beyond the Blue.)”
The Asidors might just be some of the cutest kids you will ever see, and they can sing. At the start of this video, we see some of the girls swinging.
Suddenly a group of 7 children is all standing in a choir and singing. Each child has such joy and gladness while they sing. The kids are seen with other children in what appears to be missions on a playground. We see precious clips of children smiling, swinging, and playing.
The older two girls each take moments to sing, “I took Jesus as my Savior. You take Him too.” It appears so personal to them as they appear to be thinking about their own experiences.
There are more clips of children jumping and the elderly drumming. As they sing in their choir, the kids carefully tilt their heads every time they sing “do Lord” as if they are asking a question. All of the children have their own distinct personalities, and watching them all perform is so sweet.
Viewing this video from this family in the Philippines is so encouraging to our faith. We see young people overseas shining a light for Christ in this world and using their voices to point others to Him.
As we reflect that Jesus has called us by name and we are His, we know that we are His and He remembers us. This song is a great reminder of that.
“Now this is what the Lord says— the one who created you, Jacob, and the one who formed you, Israel— “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; you are mine.” Isaiah 43:1
