  • Horrible performance... the conductor can't keep the tempo right and the basses need to be warmed up so they can hit the proper low notes.

  • "who will" are alternate words to that. it's written right in the music.

  • The Kelly gang can do better (the kelly gang are a group that sing with the Australian boys choir)

  • @zsellers1 As the comments above indicate, the words "who will" are footnoted in the music as an optional change. It was probably added so that those who were more secular would be able to sing the song without apprehension. I'd suggest actually looking at the music before typing out needless comments on Youtube.

  • It is Jesus help me not who will help me it explains who will help by giving that specific name dont change stuff that is the point in the title Prayer of the Children it says prayer to Jesus for the children. When you say who will help me it sounds like there is no one to help and they are looking for someone but when you say Jesus help me it gives you someone to turn to thats the difference and why the composer wrote the words he did.

  • its way to fast

  • I do agree with the conductor moving the tempo. It is because of his rubato has caused fundamental mistakes in phrasing and breaking of the text. When you study a score you need to take into account where the natural breathes occur. If anyone would like my help with this song let me know so we don't have this crap happening again. OUT OF TUNE IN THE END AND THROUGHOUT!

  • @tben339 -the bass part isn't even that low lol

    well, at least it shouldn't be for REAL basses X]

  • You guys F this song up lol

    And i'm not saying (like all these other people) that it should be Jesus because i'm christian, but saying "crying Jesus help me" is definitely more powerful text then "crying who will help me"..

    but it doesn't matter anyway because this was a horrible performance :D
