Keep up the superb singing. This beats X factor, and we could enjoy the choir on Saturday night prime time. All hymn singing is for the glory of God. When I hear such praise . . . . . the trail leads back to the music teacher/ director/ conductor and pianist. Where would the choir be without these well disciplined tutors? Proof that good discipline is what pupils love. Politicians today have wrecked teaching by putting their friends into positions of authority, while excusing and defending all sorts of incalcitrant pupil behaviour. God bless each choir member. . . . . . and keep praising!

Keep on singing. I went to coleshill school just down the road, I am 80 now it was a long time ago, lovely singing.

THIS IS STUNNING and I don't even speak Welsh, beautiful language

[@andrew097]

It really is a lovely hymn but this version and choir truly make it heavenly. :))

[@davidleigh3346]

This choir makes a truly beautiful sound. I love the way they sing, very clearly but retaining that lovely welsh lilt which of course is enhanced greatly when they go into welsh. Ironically the choir that won sang in quite a clipped pious manner which took the edge off their sound and made them sound more posh English than Scottish. This choir has such incredible integrity and really deserved to win.

miss sioned Hancock is my teacher I love her

[@temitopefaleti7053]

I know that I've commented before but I feel that David Leigh's comment is SPOT ON; the judges were rather mean not to put them and Dafydd Llwyd through just because they sang mostly in English. Choirs like this sound equally good in English as they do in Welsh

Beautiful voices. And the soloist should always wear her hair up.

[@temitopefaleti7053]

They should have got through to the finals.

[@iantan4276]

Agree, they should have got thorough to the finals. The video title is missing "for the presence of the lord". I can't find the webpage in the school website selling the CD.
