The voices of two teens fuse to perform a beautiful duet of ‘The Prayer’.
‘The Prayer’ has been sung by many, but is probably most famous for the beautiful duet by Andrea Bocelli and Celine Dion.
This worship performance of the classic song comes from the show Fairytale of Waterford, delivered to us by Mount Sion Choir.
They posted their video just in time for the new year of 2021. In the video description they write, “Happy New Year to you all, thanks for all the support and hopefully 2021 will be a better year for everyone xxx”.
This talented choir finds home in Waterford, Ireland. And in this video we see two of their young members sharing their voices with us. The boy we see on the left is Kingsley Ekedozie and the girl on the right is Niamh Mcknight.
The scene in the video is unsurprisingly decorated nicely with religious and festive imagery. They filmed at a local church called The Sacred Heart.
In the video description the choir writes, “Thanks to Father Chestnutt for allowing us into this sacred space.”
The choir used the space well, giving us powerful voices to listen to and be reminded of our Lord. However, this performance did not come easy for the choir. By their own admission, this song was difficult to sing.
“The Prayer is hands down the most difficult song we have ever tried, we nearly gave up so many times. Teacher Elaine Ryan made us persevere at the song and there was such a sense of achievement when we finally got it right.”
Their efforts to conquer the song paid off, and now we have been blessed with this beautiful tune.
As they say in the song, may we too find God’s light as we enter into the year of 2021.
