  • A song will never tell me how to live my life,the sound is beautiful but

  • I believe it's because I throw all the bullshit aside and treat people like I want to be treated

  • I'm not a Christian, and never will be, but hearing this choir and the beautiful sound they make does make me wonder sometimes. To be inspired by your faith to make such wonderful and breathtaking music is a brilliant thing. I hope they keep it up! I know if I were God, I'd have them up in heaven singing to me! :)

  • Putting the Tabernac in Tabernacle! Just kidding I really liked it.

  • How the F.. did I get here from martians vs goblins?

  • Go, LDS, Go! Totally divine !!!

  • Beautiful.

  • goosebumps! Happy New Year! God Bless all the Singers thank you for this wonderful wonderful rendition.

  • La verdadera religion es de Adan y Eva. Guardeban el Sabado

  • @MrOnedy HuH?????

  • U don't have to join a group to enjoy the music

  • @MrSouthernSurvival wow hot button

  • too bad you have to be mormon to be in this group

  • @1TubaChick I was thinking the same thing. Obviously I understand the reasoning, but oh! To have said I auditioned for it. That would have been cool. :)

  • @1TubaChick Whats stoping you? 8)

    

  • @XMafiagirlX well I am Christian...that probably wouldn't go down well lol

  • Cool, just after a good night out with my mates and what a great way to chill.

  • Have a peaceful New Year I am sure the singers are Earth Angels

  • wonderful and inspiring. happy and peaceful new year to everyone.

  • wew, am i in heaven?? x) Sounds Good :)

  • Brilliant. Merry Christmas to everyone and a happy new year!

  • I'm a Catholic, and I know I'm not one to judge..but, this song IS first and foremost, about God's only Son, Jesus Christ..I have absolutely NO respect whatsoever for atheists, agnostics, or any other type of people that shun the existence of the Lord..I truly hope, on this the day of the Savior's birth, you try to change your ways...otherwise, you'll be where you truly belong, in the lake of fire, with ALL the rest of the scum on this Earth that have corrupted it with their evil ways..

  • @LuigiLaker Just to be clear... you have NO respect whatsoever for people who see the world differently than you do or those who at least admit that they don't know everything about it and don't pretend to?

    And just to point it out (and I'm a Catholic, too, by the way): "I'm a Catholic, and I know I'm not one to judge..." is totally incongruent with the rest of your comment. Following it with "...but, blah blah blah -- I'm judging you," is like stealing with intent to do penance.

  • @Bonenfancy There are people that are ignorant..that blow the Catholic faith off..it's not that they DON'T understand it, dimwit...it's that they don't WANT to...and, I will let my opinion on them be known..I'm all for forgiveness and compassion, but not to atheists that will NEVER change their mind about God, Mary, the angels and saints, or anything else religious..they will go where they belong. Then, they'll find out they were dead wrong about it, but it will be too late..

  • @LuigiLaker Again, to be CLEAR, I said people who see the WORLD differently, not the Catholic faith.

    And I'm a dimwit now? For asking you to clarify (which you didn't do)? I feel like you didn't even read my response. All you did was prove my point with your inane reasoning, not even acknowledging what I said. You're not just judging, you're doing it blindfolded. Try actually hearing someone's point of view before you judge them, and stop making Catholics look bad.

  • @LuigiLaker I wonder what Jesus would have to say about this? He was a lifelong practicing Jew and died as a Jew. Who are you to judge who belongs in the "lake of fire"?

  • i gave this song to the Lord a thumbs up. 

  • 1944BANDIT you clearly are a dickhead.

  • Merry Christmas from a Unitarian Universalist for whom the holiday wouldn't be the same without the Mormon Tabernacle Choir singing this.

  • Beautiful. Love this choir. Merry Christmas to all.

  • Thank you Robin.... i agree .... and when i listen i regret the time when we all believed that they were better paths than what is happening everywhere in the world..

    I love the mormon tabernable choir and i also love some aspects of the mormon church thought some like polygamy is very disturbing to me.

    But as you said, Christmas is a time of peace love and beauty and the christian message is still one of the best for human kind.

    Merry Christmas to you

  • The Mormon Tabernacle Choir is in my opinion, one of the finest in America. I too, am a Roman Catholic Christian, and my belief is to let God judge what doctrines are right or wrong. At this Christmas season, we all, of every Christian denomination celebrate our common bond, that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Conceived miraculously, born of a virgin, whose death on the cross paid for our sins, whose resurrection gives us hope of eternal life with God. Wishing you all a Merry Christmas.

  • @robin7677 --- Amen, Robin - we're ALL in this together - that's what I say, too.

    

  • @robin7677 The words Roman Catholic Christian does not go in a sentence. Catholics are Maryologists. The very first Commandment states, thou shalt have no gods before me.... The true doctrine is in the Bible. Have you read it? By the time God judges which is the correct doctrine it will be too late. "lest a man be BORN AGAIN he shall not see the kingdom of heaven." "by grace are ye saved through faith." not by works. Think about that. Merry Christmas

  • @robin7677 Blah Blah Blah, why is it that religious fanatics never miss an opportunity to shove preaching down people's throats!!!

    Just shut up, and let me enjoy in peace this magnificent carol sung by best choir ever.

  • thank you for this moving arrangement, I love it a lot very touching!

  • Just WOW!

  • Christmas is the day that holds time together.

  • Thanks for posting this! This is my favorite Christmas Hymn and I just love it...Thank you, God Bless and Merry Christmas!!!

  • These are the voices of my Source.....bring tears to my eyes and joy to my soul everytime I hear this.....Merry Christmas!

  • It's not Christmas without the Mormon Tabernacle Choir... thank you for posting this.

  • Don't see why wee need to discuss the Mormon religion here.

    This is a beautiful production of this song. I love the control and discipline of the voices, the precision the emotion conveyed through their singing. Wonderful.

    Only spoiled slightly by the accompaniment being too loud and out of balance with the voices although that may be in the recording and microphone placement. Bravo!!

  • @ianblue100 : I agree that it is unfortunate we must endure the poor YouTube video quality and can't hear it performed live in all it's glory and clarity.

  • @lindseywagners What ar you talking about? This IS a choir. A world-renowned one at that.

  • @DC11961 My fault. I was drunk when I wrote that and it's misleading because of the parentheses. I meant to state that I like the song more with a choir, versus the solo version at the Liverpool Met.

  • Great version; dislike the intro, though (in my opinion, this song is best served by a choir, although I heard a good solo version from Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral). But I think the best version of this song is in Home Alone. When Kevin walks into the church - it's similar to this version but I'd call it simpler.

  • @lindseywagners home alone for the win! :D

  • I feel like crying every time i hear this song. no matter who's singing

  • Just wanderfulllll !!!

  • This is so lovely...I love it!!

  • This has always been my all time favorite Christmas carol and to hear it sung by such an outstanding choir is absolutely heavenly. Merry Christmas Everyone.

  • Beautiful.. Awesome colors.. Best part if from part to end.. Lovely..

  • 2:34 there someone looks like the cast of Green Goblin in spiderman one

  • sie singen eine wunderschöne Lieder

  • I thought nothing would ever compare to the Kings College Choir version of O Holy Night... but this is just amazing. I've always been told the Mormon Tabernacle Choir was incredible and I really believe it.This is magical.

  • May we ALL remember that Jesus is the reason for the season! God Bless you all Abundantly! No matter who you are Jesus loves you all!

  • The babes are all hot too!  :)

  • @BMaleckar ¬¬ loser

  • I'm not religious, but this song still moves me to tears. The part at 4:30 is heartbreakingly gorgeous. This is probably the only song related to Christmas that I've ever liked.

  • Love and peace! It's Christmas, time to reflect on the birth of our savior Jesus Christ. No matter what Christian denomination you are from Christmas still has the same meaning :) merry christmas =]

  • @LeonaDavinaa Merry Christmas Leona - and God bless you and your family

  • @dahncer Fact......... the Mormon Church has ALWAYS (and I do mean since the beginning) accepted people of all nationalities. It has NOTHING to do with discrimination. It has to do with who has an interest in singing in the choir, are capable of singing well, and if they are a dedicated member of the church. That is how it works. Not enough blacks are in it, because many choose to not be in it, and also that they are limited with how many people can be in it.

  • Here is something for anti-Mormons to think about. Whoever (and I challenge all who disagree, including other Religious Pastors to try and prove me wrong) thinks that Mormons are not Christians, try taking a good look at the name of their Church. The Church of ______ ________ of Latter Day Saints. Fill in the blanks. Why on earth would a religion that is a cult, satanic, or whatever even sing songs like this, along with doing "The Lords Prayer" with Andrea Bocelli? Please enlighten me.

  • Mormons get Christmas Music FUCKING RIGHT! All the relig talk aside...they do Christmas music Proud

  • I am a hardcore atheist 100%. However I believe the the Mormon Tabernacle Choir is the most talented above all other Choirs. They do a beautiful job with these Christmas Carols.

  • @theundercoveratheist Music, Christmas music in particular, has no limits or boundaries. They transcend all forms of human borders! In fact they are man's perfect vehicle to God whether you are a believer or not.

  • It's a good video with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir singing and the orchestra playing, is a wonderful celebration of when Jesus Christ was born.

  • 1:40--chills.

  • I am Italian and Roman Catholic Christian, I know very well the Mormon church, I also visited Salt Lake City and the Mormon Thabernacle Choir. I think that the various religious opinions should only be set aside in the face of a musical show like this. Absolutely awesome! Beautiful!!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!

  • @pistaun I disagree, im not in any way religious, but i do believe in the good in people. Religious opinions should only be discussed in friendly environments, but ideally religion should be accepted and not discussed ever. I dont care if people are christians, mormons, muslims or buddhist or whatever. Human beings are human beings, and humans are different, hence all people should be respected and accepted in one big unity. Just my seven cents :)

  • @pistaun I dont care about the music or anything else, i only care about the Kingdom of my Heavenly Parents, The Church of Jesus Christ of L.D.S. the :Gospel was before the foundation of the universe. and also, i dont care of xmas Jesus Christ wasnt born on december 25.

  • god with us

  • @dahncer : Setting aside that you are incorrect in your assertion concerning black people and the Mormon church, and that there are multiple members of the choir who are non-white, do tell, I pray thee, exactly how many non-white members of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir must there needs be to meet with thine approbation?

  • I Love Mormon tab choir they sing with whole heatedly n they practice hard to sing perfectly

  • Sounded like final fantasy 7 there for a moment.

  • I feel it

  • the lord literally vibrates thru their bodies

  • Endorphines

    

  • how's that ?

    

  • if u can't play and instrument or sing shut the F up!

  • I wish it didn't have the instruments- just the voices. I almost feel like it's too much.

  • Wow speechless!!!!

  • Beautiful!

  • I strongly dislike the fact that every Mormon Tabernacle choir has a Mormonism fight on it's comment page... It doesn't matter if you like Mormons or not, they make beautiful music, appreciate it for what it is.

  • @zZzRiderzZz They simply hate Mormons because they believe that their religion is right (which every religion does, including Mormons). Their religion taught them to hate Mormons (because their religion uses a misprinted Bible where Christ never said "Love your enemies"), so they do as their religion teaches. When you attend Mormon Church services on Sunday, you will never, EVER hear them preach about how other religions are bad, evil, or whatever. They teach what they believe about the Gospel.

  • Absolutely beautiful!! There are no adjectives that give justice to this song and choir!!  Merry Christmas!

  • Most beautiful Christmas song EVER!!!!

  • Listen to so many versions of this, the best Christmas Song ever, and they are either too fast or too slow, this choir sings the words at the exact perfect speed, and is lovely beyond compare.

  • MI CORAZON SE ESTREMECE H AY HERMANOS Y SE AGOLPAN LOS HERMOSOS RECUERDOS DE LAS MUCHAS VECEZ QUE HE ENTONADO ESTOS HIMNOS DE PIE JUNTO ATODOS USTEDES MI CORAZON LLORA Y ESTOY AHORA TAN LEJOS Y TAN CERCA A LA VEZ MI ESPIRITU PERTENECE AHI POR TODA LA ETERNIDAD!!!! !!!feliz navidad a todos mis hermanos del planeta!!!!

  • I've always loved O Holy Night and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir does such a wonderful job of it. I enjoyed it thoroughly!

  • absolutely awesome! :) Merry Christmas

  • "Feliz Natal"

    Merry Christmas from Brazil

  • O Holy night.......quite beautiful! Thank you! Merry Christmas~

  • Beautiful...

    

  • MMmmmm... my heart is filled. <3

    I cannot explain the POWER right now, the glorious joy that overtakes me to hear this choir sing praises to our Heavenly Father.

    Merry Christmas, everyone!

  • @Saruki02389 Merry Christmas and our Lord Jesus Bless you always

  • @francis180246 Thank you, and Merry Christmas to you as well! May the Lord be with you in all you do. <3

  • Good choir music. Only question I have is a general one - Do you think God really cares about how people and their religeons choose to worship Him when all He wants is Love?

  • @cliffy827 I believe He does care. If he didn't, He wouldn't have sacrificed His only Son. The Son is the bridge that fills the gap between God and man. He is the Great Mediator - the Man Christ Jesus.

    The sole subject of the lyrics of this song from beginning to end: the child who, the moment He was born that Holy Night, was already Lord of Lord and Kings of Kings. He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and NO MAN comes to the Father except by Him. Worship Him. All else is vain worship.

  • @cliffy827 Yes, God does care, because only one religion demands perfect love.

  • Beautiful choir, great arrangement that lets the voices carry the piece without a lot of symphonic theatrics. Kind of a different intro but it works.

  • Es maravilloso!! por favor agreguen subtitulacion en español...para que el mensaje llegue en todo su esplendor!!!

  • I love the underlying harmonies in this song. This choir is my absolute favorite, and I love listening to them.

  • @dahncer Wow. Do you know to be part of this choir you have to go through numerous auditions. And did i mention you have to live within 100 miles of temple square. Have you even been to Utah. There arnt that many african americans, and most dont even care about joining a choir, which means less african americans. It doesnt mean Mormons discriminate. You will find that Mormons treat everyone just, even the people who spit in our faces and curse us, do some research before you assume something.

  • 3:50 CocoCOMBO BREAKER. Sorry, I had to do that. I'm in love with this song, though. I always love going to my church during times close to Christmas, and even walking downtown in and out of churches to listen to choirs sing this song, although no one is really as good as this.

    

  • fall on your knees and hear the angels voices!!

  • love Jesus!

  • This made my whole body tingle <3 love this =)

  • I felt like listening to christmas songs and this is just amazing with the orchestra!! Wow. 3

  • i love the mormons !

  • Magnificent!! Amazing singing! Enjoy!!

  • los amo :)

  • para mi es la mejor ver´sión del planeta

  • I loved choir in school, I should join one again :) beautiful

  • the violins in this performance bring tears to my eyes.......

  • this is amazing

  • For Jesus . Merry CHRISTmas :)

  • how many people ?!?! wow :O

  • This song is really astounding and this choir has really shown a wonderful perspective for that one peaceful and holy night that Christ was born. ^_^

  • Will you people please stop with the nasty religious bickering?  It's a video about a group of people singing. If you are so riled up about nothing that you just have to scream at each other, there are THOUSANDS of videos on YouTube set up for back-and-forth between people just like you who have nothing better to do than stick your nose in other people's religious affairs. "They're not Christian because herpa durpa durp!" WHO CARES?!

  • @TreJowy Amen and Amen! Sit back, relax, and enjoy the amazing singing. What's incredible to me is how these people are missing the beauty right in front of their eyes.

  • @TreJowy Thank you! It's a terrific performance in and of itself, and I couldn't care less if it was performed by LDS, Catholics, Baptists, Wiccans, Buddhists, or little green people from Mars who deify marshmallows.

    All this religious bickering does is turn people off religion and make the bickering factions all look like hypocrites. We can all walk our walk without walking all over other people.

  • @TreJowy And these people have such a beautiful gift. I believe the Almighty gave them this gift and I thank Him for doing that.

  • @TreJowy 

  • Absolutely beautiful. Thank you!

  • why ... no black people on mormon choir if the black people their have a beautiful voices

  • @cabrillo06 Clearly you didn't watch to closely. Try again......and Merry Christmas.

  • @cabrillo06 Actually, the chior has a few blacks in it, male and female. One of the males has also done recordings with other musical artists, such as R Kelly as backup vocals. The Mormon Tabernacle Choir is one that not just anybody can join. Not only do you have to have a great voice, but you also have to be a member of their church. If you're a member, it is considered to be a great honor to be part of the choir, because their numbers are deifnitely limited.

  • I don't know what being a Mormon has anything to do with this, but I love this song, and to hear it in a choir way gives me chills throughout the whole song.

  • @draco19571 We members of the Church of JESUS CHRIST do recognize our God. We believe in God the ETERNAL FATHER and in HIS son JESUS CHRIST and in the Holy Ghost. If you would like to know more about the church and its beliefs? look us up on the lds website. Merry Christmas brother / sister :) xo

  • Sorry, but this is not a choir song. It begs for a strong lead and choral backup.

  • @bhaggen But you must admit, they do a decent job of it, despite the fact that it really should be a solo song! :)

  • That's beautiful! My high school choir is doing this same arrangement this year for Christmas concert. It's such a beautiful song. At my school, we have some of the top choirs in the state, and even though I'm not in that choir normally, I get to sing this with them! Me and only eight others. I'm really excited. LDS did a wonderful job. I hope we can sound this amazing :D

  • Comment removed

  • @draco19571 . What makes you say that? If you look more closely at the Book of Mormon, you will see that it says "Another Testment of Jesus Christ." Then name of the "Mormon" church is "The Church of Jesus of Latter-Days Saints." Please do your homework before making such a statement.

  • @liencharm Just because someone puts Jesus Christ next to a book 1700 years after the bible was written doesn't mean that it has anything to do with Jesus Christ. Same goes with putting Jesus in your church's name. That would mean Islam talks about the true Jesus Christ just because they have him in their "holy" book. What them believe is antithetical to historical Christianity as is Mormonism. Believe it if you want, but you can't say that isn't an observation.

  • @liencharm It also claims that Native Americans were direct decendants of the Israelites, something dissproved by DNA tests which found they are Asian as had long been theorized......Of course smoking Peyote with the natives can make one see a lot of things........I once saw a Salamander.......cool

  • @bhaggen In the Book of Mormon there is a second group called the Jaredites that came to the North American just before the Lehi's group and they are Asiatic descent. After the Lehi settled in North America, they mingled with the Jaredites. I am not going to have a religious discussion on Youtube. If you want.. read "Lehi in the Desert: The World of The Jaredites: There were Jaredites." It was published in 1988 by Dr. Hugh Nibley.

  • @liencharm can it be found in TBM's

  • @draco19571 :) We still love our haters.

  • @draco19571 I Love the choir. Amazing voices..They know who the Savior is, it is in their voices. They sing about Jesus the Christ the same Christ all Christians sing praises to,

  • @draco19571 - "The Church of JESUSCHRIST of Latter Day Saints"

    What part of the name of this church you don't understand? I am sure someone gladly enlighten you.

    Merry CHRISTmas!

  • @blancmerlot God bless you and your friends. It hurts my heart. I'm nowhere near a perfect example of a Christian but when God moves on me....it's the most amazing experience to feel that love. Just shower it down on everyone. Merry Christmas.

  • Deus seja louvado por suas vozes e suas vidas!

  • Awesome arrangement. Beautiful.

  • guau..

  • I am not a choir person - but this brought me to tears... I am not a Mormon - do not know what it is really - but I believe in Jesus, the son of God - I guess that is all that matters - and how you treat others. And I have friends that do not believe, and I feel sorry that music like this will never speak to their souls. I respect them regardless.

    Greetings from South Africa! God bless you all.
