Est. July 2017, we are a choir of Catholic young adults from Northwest Ohio and Northeast Indiana, striving to live as intentional disciples of the Lord and conscious instruments of the Holy Spirit in the work of the New Evangelization. Our mission is to boldly proclaim the Gospel message by the beauty of the music we sing, the splendor of the truths we teach, the authenticity of our friendship, and the witness of our lives.

It's rare to find the full version of this being sung. This is a wonderful presentation and a jewel to enjoy. Congratulations to all those involved. A wonderful rendition.
This is my all-time favorite hymn. Our family is dealing with the
passing of a grandson and the parents are desperately searching for solace.
This hymn has always given me peace and comfort. I gave his parents this to listen to and possibly
help in this moment.
May God bless your ministries. Thank you.
So very sorry for the loss of your
grandson. May Jesus comfort
your family, especially his hurting
parents.🙏🏻🕊️🩷✝️
Performed with perfection!
Jean Sibelius would have enjoyed this very special performance this very special year.
Remember your grandson is with Jesus! What better place for him.
Be still, just listen to music from the Heavenly realm....
Just beautiful hymn. Could not have done any better, so delicate, so spiritual. Thanks.
Beautiful. Mournful, yet soothing. A song full of truth and comfort from the loving heart of God. Lovely rendition. Thank you.
Thank you all, sincere and uplifting! 💓🙏
The words, the music, I mean I'm in love with everything about this piece of hymn. Very inspiring and uplifting.
AN INCREDIBLY BEAUTIFUL HYMN.
Beautiful rendition of one of my very favorite hymns. But until now, I had never heard that last verse! Thank you for that.
Beautiful solo at the beginning!! Brava!
Such a Beautiful hymn sung Beautifully. Nice harmony.
What a beautiful rendition.
God bless you all.
absolutely stunning and soul stirring 🙌💕🙌💕
Sibelius ...what jerk, Huh? I've had this tune stuck in my head for weeks now. I end up whistling it for some reason. Jean is trying to tell me something. Thank you for this. Superbly done with lyrics! 👍🖖
Thankyou. My aunt, a soprano, sang this at my father's funeral, and I was so grief stricken that day that it's taken me six years to find out what she sang and seek it out. It's very emotional hearing this for the first time since then, but it's perfect, tonally and lyrically, for those in the throes of grief.
Really beautiful and inspiring ♥️
Marvelous.
Thank you Jesus
Fantastic
Wonderful. Thank you.
I think this is where some stanzas in Biafran anthem was lifted from
It was. They used the same tune (the Finnish theme song). It’s actually used for a lot of hymns
At least they could've add the name of the original song in the credits. 😞
Someone's reharmonised the opening four lines (once we're in full harmony). Why would anyone want to change what Sibelius wrote? (Unless there's another harmonisation by Sibelius that I don't know about.
Great hymn. Love it. However, it is just me?? I feel the director is rushing and pushing the choir the entire time. Unfortunately it sacrifices the peacefulness........
