The first video I watch today is Amira singing the Lords Prayer. What a beautiful way to start day.

Since she first sang this Africaan version of the Lords Prayer, it has become my favorite version. Rays visual and sub titles was really nice. This album is all beautiful

Ray Vandenberg has put quite a few of these videos together, he called them Song Stories, images that are pertinent to the lyrics, and sub-titles if he felt they were needed. Sometimes, as here, he cuts in shots of Amira singing the piece from one of her performances. They add an extra dimension to the soaring notes Amira delivers. She has also sung this prayer in English, and closed her African Christmas show with it. It's very moving.

Great reaction! Here Amira sings in Afrikaans. She has sung several times throughout her life this prayer in Afrikaans. Amira also sang this prayer in English at the age of 16, displaying spectacular vocal power. I think an observation about the special quality of this rendition is in order here. Allow me to be hyperbolic. We all know that Amira is an opera singer. And that she takes her career as an opera singer extremely seriously, combining her unique talent with a huge amount of dedication, study and training. It's practically a way of life. And that she is already among the best of all time (for many, myself included, she already is). But even so, Amira's relationship with her belief and her Savior is much more intense, more serious and a big part of who she is. So when Amira sings religious hymns, she unites these two dimensions. And then her performance reaches the pinnacle of musical, emotional and transcendental perfection. The Lord's Prayer is the only prayer created by Christ Himself. So for me, when Amira sings this prayer, I feel that the Lord is listening attentively, from very close to her, passing on much love and hope in return. I almost feel like an intruder, listening and watching in fascination and wonder at this scene, this unique interaction, all this light.
