[@Global_Perspectives-r1s]

I was a sheltered homeless person , living on the beach in Hawaii struggled with alcohol & drug's. Jesus Christ healed me from all affliction. TYJ

[@vocalpointbyu]

Wow what a beautiful testimony of Jesus! Thank you for sharing with us!💙

[@meyersonfire]

He is the Master Healer. Hallelujah ♥

[@alisonmorgan7238]

[@sallymander7863]

Lovely to hear to this, bless you. ❤️

[@MatandSavanna]

What an honor to be a part of this incredible arrangement (thank you McKay!), with such talented vocalists! It turned out beautiful, and we are so grateful to the whole VP team for including us in this! ❤

[@maryadcock673]

Mat & Savanah, marvelous arrangement of both songs and just perfect with BYU Vocal point!! Will listen everyday have already forwarded to family & friends!! Bless you all🙏❤️

[@KrissiCreates]

Just breath taking ! I got goosebumps watching and listening.

[@jim097]

Matt and Savanna Shaw you always make great songs to listen to I hope your new Christmas album will have a great success loved this song

[@kristinfinke5844]

This was a magnificent blend of the two song, well mastered! What a nice chance to hear BYU's vocal group. My SM goes there...what a beautiful way to start the holiday season. Have a blessed one!

[@joleneminarik9229]

Constantly taking music to new heights! Wow 🤩

[@codyphillips]

💙💙💙 I felt honored to edit this video for Vocal Point and Mat & Savanna! They're all artists who care about filling the world with love and light, and I could sense that from the moment I started editing. My favorite scene is when everyone turns and sings to the Savior both individually and together as one united voice. What's yours?

[@MatandSavanna]

Amazing edit job Cody! It turned out amazing!

[@KrissiCreates]

Great editing !! That scene gave my goosebumps! Just breath taking !

[@Whistlenirish]

Awesome editing! That scene gave me chills. I loved it too!

[@codyphillips]

@@MatandSavanna thank you! I appreciate that! Give Doug a hug for me. 😊

[@addie-eileenpaige6460]

You did such a great job. Kinda similar to yours, I just love the closeup of the Crucifix.

[@charlieprice2517]

Will I be listening to this every day until Christmas? Yes. Yes I will

[@MatandSavanna]

Haha, thank you Charlie! Glad you liked it! 🎄❤️

[@petrataron1421]

Wunderschöne Stimmen. Ganz toll gesungen♥️

[@jodyondeck9848]

I will listen every day AFTER CHRISTMAS TOO, an absolute beautiful gem, great on great, thank you so very much, surly you blessed HIM.

[@sewmuchjoy]

Thank you so much for this. I needed to hear this, more than I realized. You see, my Uncle Steven passed away recently. His favorite song was Wayfaring Stranger. Carol of the Bells is one of my favorite Christmas songs, he always visited us for the holidays and without him this year....my family is having a really hard time. So hearing Christmas and his song all in one....thank you. I started crying when y'all turned and looked to Jesus. I know my Uncle Steven is doing the same, looking to his Savior, for he went home, over Jordan.

[@thembilemajafe1165]

How this doesn't have millions of views is beyond me. From the singing to the visuals and entire production Just wow! You guys are incredible. Mr Matt Sir, my goodness your voice is so commanding , you sing with so much authority its unreal and beautiful Savannah with a voice of an angel i could listen to you guys all day. Thank you so much everyone involved in this masterpiece ❤ love from Botswana

[@teddysdadcory]

Holy cow….. both individual parts sent shivers down my spine. Mat and Savannah’s combination with Vocal Point resulted in a perfect performance.

[@AeviumFilms]

The part when they turn around and look at the Savior… so incredibly beautiful. You can see that each one of them have such a special relationship with Jesus.

[@MatandSavanna]

That was your idea, wasn’t it? Just brilliant Nick, the whole thing. Such a pleasure to work with you again!

[@SingerGuy59]

In that moment I went from being an enthralled viewer and enjoying this fantastic arrangement to suddenly having eyes filled with tears as my own testimony of the atonement of Jesus Christ took over and everything got blurry. Thank you for capturing the central focus of the Savior in such a powerful way. Truly you knew how to receive inspiration in that moment of perfect beauty.

[@worshipprayer8165]

I just discovered this and right at the perfect time. I was starting to hit a depression state with the virus and some other things I'm going through. God is great and he is more powerful than any virus or issue we face. Such amazing and beautiful hymns to worship. ❤

[@vocalpointbyu]

This is so true. Thank you for sharing your wonderful testimony of God. So thankful for Him 🙌

[@jeaniesheehan3920]

So beautiful! I loved how Mat and Savanna came together strong at the end of the song with their backup groups turned to face the crucified Christ hanging in the Church. Everyone looked and sounded amazing. Wow! Another great album I am going to add to the others you have put out these past couple of years. Keep going Savanna! You have grown so much. You're looking more and more confident and comfortable in your role as a singer. Your voice is angelic. Yours with your dad's is awesome too! Love how your songs touch me to the core. ❤️😀👍👏🌺

[@joannbjorkman5399]

I enjoyed the arrangement and blend of voices. Savanna's entrance had a very Celtic feel, very cool! Mat provided a strong foundation to the music. Both of you do an excellent job on diction of a difficult song.

[@tula7141]

Absolutely heavenly. They all sing like angels

[@rexcluff3105]

Beautiful. Your music is evolving into greater complexity. Truly heavenly.

[@addie-eileenpaige6460]

Such a gorgeous song! I went to Mass at that same church in Park City a few months back. It's beautiful. I love how the videographer zoomed in on the Crucifix. Keep on singing, Vocal Point.

[@M.G.1950]

Einfach das Besondere,glasklare Stimmen und Texte die so wichtig sind.Thank you.

[@lawrencevandenberg7725]

The chorus of birch trees is shamelessly beauteous!

[@susanromig2859]

Another amazing collaboration between BYU VP and Mat & Savanna Shaw! The arrangement of the 2 songs is breathtaking! The new Christmas album, including this song, is going to be the best yet! Can’t wait to get mine in the mail!!!

[@MatandSavanna]

Thank you so much Sue!!!

[@wendie8290]

I will be looking forward to hearing this.

[@irisoneal2164]

Outstanding, absolutely the best

[@robertaswanson5633]

Although I did not want to think about Christmas yet. I admit that this performance is truly beautiful. I tend to cry everytime Matt and Savannah sing and this was no exception. Matt's voice just keeps getting better and better. The ending of the two together is really precious.

[@Selah7791]

Wow the lyrics are amazing. Never heard this version before. Well done. Beautiful

[@yin-yang-gal]

This must be one of the most hauntingly beautiful and creative blending of two songs ever, period. It is so arresting that I find myself covered with delightful gooseflesh every time. Well done Mat and Savanah, and all those seriously good-looking singers.

[@evelynramirez5783]

Spellbinding and splendid performance by all! 👏💕 What a beautiful mashup, as arranged by the very brilliant Stephen Nelson!!! Mat, I can feel your heartfelt performance as well as Savanna's, and everyone's facial expression are still lingering in my mind. 💕 An awesome collaboration by BYU Vocal Point and Mat and Savanna Shaw!!! Looking forward to more collaboration with the Father Daughter Duo in the future!!! 🎄✨️♥️

[@patrickkelley2735]

I love both of these songs, but I never imagined them together. WOW!

[@maryzipf-zwiener8572]

Chills!!! Savanna looks so beautiful as usual; Mat looks so handsome, as well. Your voices are beyond amazing! Once again, you knocked it out of the park! Jesus loves you guys so much!

[@Jnadki]

This is so good in so many ways. A beautiful and exciting fusion of two fine carols.

[@kristinfinke5844]

Your musical coordinator is beyond amazingly gifted. He is stellar! And so are your voices, the choir is a beautiful touch as well. The blending of the songs is exquisite!

[@lizethcantu276]

I just got back from an event at that church and the priest showed us this video at the end of the presentation and it made me SO emotional! I loved it so much!😍❤️

[@vocalpointbyu]

No way that’s so awesome!! We feel so honored to have been a part of the presentation! We appreciate you! 😊

[@tammychambers6068]

Oh my.... beautiful ❤️

[@patriciar-b9841]

Visually and vocally so great. What a big production with such attention to details. Love the lighting, the intensity and drama. We feel the input of everyone - and see every singer’s closeup. Bravo!!!! Thank you!! Great collaboration!

[@donnamccullough1375]

Oh my gosh i just cant get over how far matt and savanna have come since they first put their video on you tube. My gosh! Just beautiful

[@sisterpatdowler3783]

The passion and the reverence with which you sing this, deeply touched my heart. Thank you, I only wish I could be at your live concert. I pray you continue to positively touch people. Blessings, Sr Pat

[@officialbailey6029]

I saw the title and was like how are they going to combine poor wayfaring stranger with that?! But this gave me chills!

[@EntertainmentFan11]

Just WOW!!!

[@stephensmith7502]

I second that wow

[@fleurlobo9625]

God bless u all for singing n praising our Lord so beautifully.

[@vocalpointbyu]

And God bless you as well!! Thank you for listening. We appreciate it tons! 😄🎄

[@moraehall]

Amazing arrangement! Goosebumps in that final keychange! Mat and Savana what a gift you are!

[@loribeaver7534]

How beautiful! Praise God!❤

[@cathylunde7416]

Oh my goodness! Breath taking!

[@janfrederick9034]

What a beautiful mix of these two songs!

[@RosemarieWeidhaas]

Savanna, you are one unique, beautiful, talented young lady. Your dad is one awesome young man, talented too. I could watch you two and listen to you for hours on end. You are a blessing which is something beautiful out of bad, the monstrous pendemic, out of bad came a gift, something beautiful---you and your dad. No matter the darkness, there are always stars. You are the stars in the lives of so many people.

[@vocalpointbyu]

We totally second this comment! What a blessing to the world Mat and Savanna are! ⭐️😊

[@jkw5374]

You just get better and better. You and the choir are God's gift to the world. Bless you, keep you, in Jesus Name.

[@princekaranja]

The vocals are always on point 🥰

[@ethelhayes2947]

I have watched this video on YT dozens of times in the past two weeks. It's mesmerizing. The music is unparalleled. Thank you for so many hours of pleasure visiting my Savior.

[@krisaliby2794]

Incredible performances, brilliant arrangement, and inspired cinematography. Love the balance of darkness and light, of grief and hope, underlined so beautifully in the symbolism and harmonies throughout the video. Thank you for this gift! I’ve been playing it every day for a week. 💝

[@vocalpointbyu]

This was such a special experience for us to create this video along side amazingly talented crew and soloists! Thank you for noticing the little things💙

[@TrinityDivineMozart]

This is absolutely wonderful and magical. 🙏❤️✝️

[@vocalpointbyu]

Thank you 🥹🙏

[@MartinaRadermacher01]

What a great mash-up! Christian-mystical-magical-breathtaking!!! Who needs musical instruments or technical support when such great voices are the instruments and cover everything in full? An absolutely fantastic collaboration.❤❤

[@margogay662]

Oh, glory! Powerful! Thank you, JESUS!

[@LatterdaySaintMusicians]

From the incredible vocals to the amazing arrangement, this is beautiful as always! Congratulations to everyone involved in this project for creating such a wonderful production. Well done!

[@sharonyoung3452]

Spectacular - every single thing about it.

[@priscillasingh7255]

Thank you for ministering to us with your God given gifts! God bless every one in front and behind in this recording!

[@vocalpointbyu]

No, thank YOU! We could not do what we do without you supporting us. So blessed to sing about Jesus during this Christmas season! 🎄⭐️

[@dennisziolkowski3966]

Beautifully done with the collaboration of BYU. The beginning and background vocals sound a lot like Straight No Chaser who is celebrating their 25th Anniversary of performing. For those that don't know, they originated in Bloomington, IN the home of Indiana University. They are currently on tour. Congrats to Matt & Savanna for the beautiful rendition of these Christmas standards.

[@cristi5298]

I love Straight No Chaser. I had their concert on VHS but haven't been able to find it on DVD. I like the original singers in that concert!

[@elouise5593]

I remember that group when they competed with other groups on "The Sing Off" many years ago.

[@michaelmaker8169]

As you were singing, it looked like you were at home. Just belting it out. Sooo Beautiful. God bless in Jesus name.

[@wakingtheworld]

Sublime - the voices, the setting, the cinematography & editing. Blown away I am.....

[@jenniferwatts3777]

Beautiful in loving memory of Brooke to covid 19 last February and Lynn last April

[@sadieesther9721]

Pretty amazing to see the LDS embrace the crucifix in this video ❤️

[@vocalpointbyu]

That was one of our favorite parts of this video!! Our videographer really created a beautiful moment! Thanks for the support! 😊

[@millyrinehart4891]

your faith speaks so loud in this song...

[@user-xj7up9zr8t]

This is the best alcapella group that exits their voice is sheer magic.

[@mandyainsworth4164]

Simply beautiful. Made me emotional. Such power and breath control. I absolutely love it. My new fave Xmas song.

[@denisefonda2815]

Two fabulous voices backed up by the fantastic BYU Vocal Point group🤗

[@laukeys1]

Beautiful! Breathtaking! Exceptional! Touches my heart deeply. Thank you.

[@tansiewalker5249]

Oh My Gosh !!! Two of my favs. Mat and Savanna never fail to deliver excellence !! Their talent just keeps growing and growing. I think this is possibly the best so far for them, but probably just a the beginning. I'm your biggest fan Matt and Savanna!!

[@tatiginattosantana]

STUNNING!!! Breathtaking ❤️❤️❤️

[@danielklein9264]

This video is amazing. Stunning.

[@JossCarpreau]

Can't stop watching this song. Such a beautiful video. It makes me laugh that Savanna is inside with all the boys whilst Dad is outside in the woods! But aside from this silliness, I think it's a very moving and uplifting song.

[@lorifox3759]

As always...LOVED the music, the beautiful inside & outside, the faces full of feeling, the voices that go w/ the faces & the combination of the 2 songs...just everything speaks to HOPE & JOY💕🎶🙏🏼🎶💗

[@cynthiaslebodnik6945]

It sent chills down my arms. One of their best .

[@sharonmortimer3843]

[@briannajanssen6121]

Carol of the Bells is one of my favorite Christmas carols and your rendition of it is absolutely beautiful. Definitely gave me goosebumps! This is a version of this Christmas classic that I’ve never heard until now. It was absolutely breathtaking. Thank you for sharing your talents with the world. God bless all of you. 💕

[@vocalpointbyu]

Brianna thank you so much for such a sweet message! It means a lot to us that you'd take time out of your day to listen to our music. Nothing like Christmas music. God bless!

[@hazelpoole4268]

Going to be soooo good.

[@kga7163]

So beautiful. I cried... i miss my mom now.

[@wendyslegeski2804]

So beautiful to be singing this in this beautiful church ♥️🙏🏻♥️

[@Jen39x]

Had never heard Mat Shaw before; positively gave me shivers his voice is so beautiful. After which I’m thinking before I even start looking around- that ain’t no college kid. Off to go buy some music

[@vocalpointbyu]

We totally relate with this comment haha. His voice seriously is something special!💯

[@user-xj7up9zr8t]

Incredible they sing so beautifully especially the guy lead.

[@stuartkidney3257]

[@gloriaalameda6536]

Oh!! Sooo beautiful...for God's glory...🎶🎵🎶💝

[@andymckay1888]

What an inspiration, taking 2 beautiful songs and doing a mashup! Mat and Savanna with Vocal Point singing them is wonderful. This is a beautiful lead up to the Christmas season.

[@sharonchartier1516]

No words to describe this. You have grown so much since you first started out during Covid. You truly have taken your music...and our hearts/souls....to a new and higher level. Thank you SO MUCH for sharing your talents with us, lifting us as you do so.

[@envisiotube]

This is great. Your style to let 2 songs meet is amazing, the arrangement is so sophisticated, dramatic and well done, and the vocalists are pure enjoyment. As an atheist, I would like you to sing also/more secularly stuff, but ... no one is perfect.

[@frankieaddams3937]

This is really beautiful.

[@kathyscott]

Beautiful ❣️ amazing mix between to wonderful groups with VP and Matt and Savannah ❣️❣️❣️
