Thanks so much for this!! As I watch this it makes me happy that David is doing what he feels he needs to do by going on a mission. Love him so much!!

[ambsat]

Just beautiful. 

David walks the walk of which he sings, like no one I know.

He's just a beautiful, kind soul...who wears (and sings) his heart on his sleeve.

Like many, I will surely miss that Voice for two years, but wish him well, always, and especially on his next journey...I'll be awaiting his return.

[minnie092407]

Wow...this got so many views...congrats...it's so amazing!!

[musicmama08]

I posted it on facebook a couple of days ago and two of my friends posted it. I assume some of their friends posted it too. You know how that goes. I wonder if I know you. hmmm

[musicmama08]

@musicmama08 Actually, I think a lot more than 2 friends shared it.

[8throwcenter]

@musicmama08 haha yes i think so.

[8throwcenter]

@musicmama08 hello, if you mean me that you wonder if you know me, I am muldur on twitter. My name is Nancy. I am lucky I have been able to go to a lot of shows to see David perform. Does that help?

[musicmama08]

@8throwcenter I sent you a message.

[markydaeszon]

I feel the spirit... i know that my SAVIOR Lives

[reasonable15]

He means it.

[8throwcenter]

I am so pleased so many people have been able to see David's performance through this and many other videos posted by others. I have seen some of your comments about how you felt the spirit when watching, or when you were there. Truly that is what I felt, too. It was also so strong a feeling at the Salt Lake show where he announced he was going on a full time mission. I understood so much from that show and from this and other VIP performances at Beaver Creek.

[palmtreephan]

@8throwcenter I, personally, have never felt the spirit of the Lord so strongly in any other individual I have ever had contact with in my life. It took me awhile to figure it out but am now sure that this is a primary reason for my draw toward him.

[newmoonbaby96]

i am so in love with him

you can so feel the spirit when watching this video

totally love him :)

[paulsenplace]

@8throwcenter Several of my friends posted it as a link, and then their friends reposted it from their page, etc. Thank YOU for sharing it with us.  It's one of the most moving performances I've heard.

[rosewoodprincess]

Loved it!

[MyQueeniebee]

simply fabulous.

[8throwcenter]

Sunny is Sunny Hilden. She co wrote Dream Sky High several years ago for David and has been working with him recently. She co wrote Fa La La La La with David for the MKOC tour.

[artistatthesoul]

Who is sunny?

[kimmied1224]

I always tear up when the Primary kids sing this...but WOW, he can really make a middle aged mom/grandma use some tissue:-)

[Daftme1]

man i did int know he was Mormon that's sweet

[lesarchie]

He sings so 'Beautiful '. Angel's voice.

Thx for the video.

[123majh]

wow, that was AMAZING!! i loved every second of it, it just feels good to hear one of the most popular celebrities in America sing this song, like that:)

[mysticwindfairy]

;.; so bootyful. Could feel the spirit the moment the piano started :)

[raetime08]

@8throwcenter Although, it could also be me who did about 1,000 of the hits...lol.

[jameejolley82]

@8throwcenter  I got it from a post that one of my friends posted. Thanks so much for sharing. I had chills the WHOLE time.

[R5ocky]

I love this. I would love to have a cd of all my favorite primary songs with David singing. :) This has filled my soul today. It's such a beautiful and simple song that has such a huge meaning. Thanks David!

[Beverooni]

Beautiful -- sends the message as it should be.

[raetime08]

Thank you for sharing this. Such a simple song but it carries such a big message and David has risen to the occasion. His countenance glows and people all over the world are drawn to the "mystery" that makes him so happy. I'm glad he'll be able to share what that "mystery" really is--even though it will be an awfully long 24 months...

[8throwcenter]

I would also like to say once more how much I love this song and the way David sang it and I love the comments you all have posted showing how much you also do. :)

[pabuckie]

The day he auditioned on American Idol I knew there was something very special about David. He is one-of-a-kind. Thank you for being the biggest inspiration of my life.

[suesflowers1]

I also would liketo say this is pureness of heart, light and truth being sung.  Thank you David.

[suesflowers1]

So touching! The most heart felt rendition of this song I have ever heard. What a way to share your feelings and thoughts of your testimony of Jesus Christ. You are an amazing young man and I wish you the best in all your endevors in your life. Such a cutie pie!

[hienlovearchie]

AMAZING!!!! i love this song so much!!! david u makes me believe in god eventhough i dont belong to any religion!

[hienlovearchie]

wish that david would release this song as mp3 verson :((

[ColoStrider]

This is wonderful. I really hope David keeps singing during his mission, even if we will not be able to hear him. The people he is working with will hear him. I will miss you David.

[heidijoyful]

I had the privelege to be there for this. David seems so at peace with his decision and sang this so tenderly . It was beautiful. Thank You for capturing it for us so we can relive it and try to live it!

[katleya25]

despite everything, I am somehow glad that David would be getting out of this industry unscathed from dirt and politics of show business.. He came in pure and he will get out without a stain on his soul..

[archieangeltx]

I went to SLC in anticipation to cry my eyes out over Ava Maria, Silent Night and Oh Holy Night, but this one that captures my soul to its deepest place in my heart. I cry everytime I watch this video. This one is so David. Thank you Nancy for this wonderful video and all the ones you have captured.  David is truly a gift of God to all of us.

[KarenTaylorSings]

i love his faith. That he can stand in front of hundreds of people and say this is what i belive in. That he has a testimony in the church of Jesus Christ of latter days saints. Truly beautifull!!!

[aud1967]

What a beautiful song and an even more beautiful man....I feel so blessed that I was able to attend Beaver Creek VIP and hear this live...Thank you David James for showing us what true faith is..God Bless and protect him...

[Bratzfabulous18]

..really love this song...one of my fav.primary song..i love david <3

[StarGazerGirl123]

What I love is just how much David emulates this song. Only someone who lives every melody can sing in this way. Pure and honest music like this is hard to come by. This is a rare gem.

[jzeeil]

Thank you so much for posting this. This song reminds me of exactly why I was drawn to David's songs in the first place...the spirit shines through in an amazing way!

[heavyheartedx3]

Speechless. Thank you. ♥ :')

[AnneMarieFOD]

Thank you so much Nancy for bringing this beautiful video of David to us who could not be there.This song describes perfectly the kind of beautiful person David is. He sings with such heart and soul. (tears) God bless him!

[reasonable15]

Beautiful. David is a treasure. He puts so much feeling into music. You know he believes this with all of his heart! Tears.

[RArchieFan1st]

I am having a hard time writing anything that can truly express what I just felt in the depth of my soul listening to David sing that most beautiful and simple primary song. Oh my.....♥ Not sure anyone has an idea what is coming with him serving his mission. Wow where ever he goes watch out.

[15263457689]

i dont think i'll ever not cry listening to this song. thank you so very much for recording and uploading this video.

[KeilynDano]

:''''') Tears of joy!

[ashhg27]

What an amazing example David is. This totally made me cry!

[mrayburn8743]

I don't know if I'll ever be able to watch David sing this song without crying. David carries this song with him in his heart and tries and succeeds in living it every day. I am, and always have been since the first time I saw him, in awe of the spirit that radiates from him. I feel so thankful and blessed to have had this inspirational man in my life, if only to observe from a distance.

[skydancer1x]

Nancy,you are absolutely right,this is one of the most beautiful songs sung by David I have ever heard.♥You are loved and appreciated,for all you do to bring David to us through your gorgeous videos.Thank you!!

[myfav4evr]

David, I can thank you forever and still not thank you enough....

'David deserves to carry the spirit, he really tries to live a Christ like life'..: Jeff Archuleta to a small group of us in PHX

AMEN to that

[MsSharonBryan]

@myfav4evr He sure does! I can sense that strong spirit even when watching him on American Idol. Meeting him in person you can feel that even stronger. I love that he tries his best to live a Christ-like life. He inspired me to make better choices and seek after that connection with God too. I have him to thank for that.

[chergehr]

I'd say David has been very successful in his life in accomplishing what this song is all about. Thanks for the video, it is so moving and emotional.

[apmvp05]

Nancy, I can't say thank you enough for this and all the other videos. It was so hard to not be there in the first place, but then to have such a lockdown without communication and the strict video policy....this is such a gift....a beautiful, heartfelt gift.

David has always touched my heart, but this just takes it to another level. Simple, so real and stunningly beautiful in lyric and meaning....and with a voice so warm. Thank you.

♥heartsong♫

[coronet51]

You've done it again N. Thank you, thank you, for capturing this beautiful song and moment.

[pabuckie]

Thank you for this lovely video. David is a living example of how to be. If watching & listening to him sing this song doesn't inspire you to try and change your words, deed or actions, nothing will.

[marciaoaklander]

Thank you for capturing this moving song - I am overwhelmed with David's peace and joy and passion as he is singing this song that is obviously near and dear to his heart.

[retroviolet]

Thank you so much for capturing this so we all could hear it. Beyond beautiful.

[Josselyn6824]

tan lindo ♥



[archieangeltx]

Thank you for this, so heartfelt and moving.
