My wife and I played this song as we walked down the aisle after our wedding ceremony. She died last week and I play this song whenever I'm down. I miss her.💗💗💗
I am so sorry . I wish you and your wife the best possible. But if you want to get real sense of love and protection, listen to two fallen angels: Lucy and Martha Thomas singing this same song.... Search for "Lucy the prayer" in youtube Your hearts and souls will be uplifted . Celine and Andrea are very good singers , but they are professionals. I had the sensation that something was missing. I found it in Lucy and Martha performance: real sincerity.
I lost my only 2 sons only 22 and 21 years old four months apart the same year. The prayer gives me total peace within my heart and soul and reason to live❤❤
My name is Yonatan (John) I'm Jewish, and going through a difficult time, with depression and anxiety in my life. Having a difficult time to function properly. I would appreciate your prayers very much. I just want to be happy again, and hopeful about the future. Thank you to all those who might pray for me. I have nothing to lose at this point
my friend i experienced the exact same thing and my hope in the darkness was jesus. he did more than i hoped for, anxiety is far away from me and peace lives in me. please try to reach him, it’s so simple. few words from your heart will touch his heart.
Yonatan, I pray you have come through that phase and have regained the ability to make the most of our time here on Earth as we know it. I'm Christian and understand and have fully accepted Jesus as the messiah, Lord and Saviour. I have found no greater comfort or teachings on this planet than His. To me, Jesus is King "the way, the truth, and the life..." John 14:6 💖👑➕️🕊🛐🙏 I hope you find as much comfort in your beliefs Amen 🙏
I pray the clouds have passed. Being on this earth is so hard at times but ask god to see life how he/she sees it. So we may rise above and understand with joy in our hearts. To help others. So we can change the earth into a higher consciousness. It’s not supposed to be like this.
When I found out that I have stage 4 uterine cancer I suddenly was no longer depressed. I want to live because I never understood gratitude. I do now and I want to live it out. Depression is hard and no one can really understand your depression nor can they help you lean on God and try to practice gratitude. Easier said than done. I care and I will pray for you.
My mom plays this song for my son since he was 1 week old... now at 7 months it's the only song that calms him instantly!! Even if he's having a fit, he will instantly stop crying and listen ❤
I am the same with my grandson. He is one this week and has started humming to it now. I have been playing it to get him to sleep since birth. Love it. Xx
TY for sharing this. I pray for all those that are in difficult situations. It's especially difficult during the holiday season. God Bless You & stay safe.
Celine dion has always had such a stunning voice. May her music always live on forever. She loved her husband very much and they had a true love story.
Robin Wright me too. I have definite faith that we will get through this evil and frightening virus that has changed the lives of others. Ever since March 12, my life completely changed and I know our normal lives will resume as soon as this virus is over. We got thru SARS many years back
My dad just passed yesterday. This was a song he really loved. He used to sing it all the time when me and my siblings were kids and he would have us girls sing along with him. I miss him so much already
Burke, Such beautiful love. I feel sad for your hurt but remember God watches over His children.Be at peace.Your wife is resting in Gods glory. ✝️🙏🏽❤️.
My grandma passed away recently and she loved the songs made by both Andrea Bocelli and Céline Dion. This song is a stark reminder of her and as difficult as it is to listen to at the moment, it feels relieving to just have a moment with it and allow myself to be sad. Music really is powerful.
I’m just listening to this now. I don’t believe my sorrow from losing my husband a few years ago at the age 58 whatever vanish, but I do trust in our Lord Jesus Christ as her, all loving, consoling savior, who will redeem us. Blessings to all of you who are Pain with losses. Jesus knows our suffering. Love to you all.❤
I truly agree. Not only is this song fitting for Christmas, it’s also fitting for other observance days like National Best Friends Day and Valentine’s Day
The first time I heard The Prayer was on March 19, 2000, a year after this song came out. I was 15 years old and remembered exactly where I was, what happened, and what I did. It was in the evening around 6:30 P.M. twilight on a cloudy drizzly cool Sunday when this song played on through my favorite radio station, WPCH 94.9 in Atlanta, GA. I had school the next day and had a few hours to relax before bedtime. Those high school memories. Everytime I hear this song, it always brings me back to that simple time when I first heard it. This song has stuck with me during the difficult times. The lyrics "we ask that life be kind" is very underrated. In reality, life is never always kind to us, but the good news is that we can trust on the Lord to guide us through those tough times.
This was played at my father's funeral. Reading the comments makes me realise I'm not the only one suffering from a loss. I'm so glad it gives people comfort. I thought I knew all of the songs my father adored but I didn't realise this was one of them until my mother and sister included it for his funeral. It's a beautiful song with excellent singers delivering it. To anyone reading this, don't dwel on the past or the future. Embrace now and this moment.
On 03/17/2001, I was driving from Chicago area down to Florida to catch some spring b training games. I am a night shift nurse and love to drive at night and straight through. It was dusting with snow as I got near Crown Point, IN. I kid you not, I was playing this song and singing along. Just at the part in the beginning "and watch us where we go", the semi in front of the van in front of me jacknifed. I had anti-lock brakes so went into 360 degree spin twice. The van in front did not and shot directly into the jacknifed semi. I came to a rest just as the impact happened. I jumped from my car and ran to try to help. Unfortunately the father and pregnant mother in front seat had dies on impact. However in the back seat there were 2 crying kids covered in fine glass. I stayed with them at the hospital until family could come from Wisconsin. I still am in touch with the little girl. I had so much survivor's guilt after this. I would have traded places with those parents in a heartbeat. The mom had been a nurse and dad a physical therapist. The kids were 4, 2 and mom had been pregnant with a boy. They were the perfect family and here I was a single mom doing whatever I fancied. I was a Christian, went to church, went through the motions...but it was this tragedy that made me realize that God spared me. He had a purpose for me. This song, "The Prayer" means so much. It really helped me realize my worth as a child of God and changed the way I saw my life. When I hear it, it literally brings me to tears every time. That night I felt the hands of God wrapped around me.
Message tellement bouleversant et traumatisant. J’en ai les larmes aux yeux. Les épreuves de la vie sont terribles parfois. Un événement pareil bouleverse une vie à jamais. Je vous souhaite tout le courage nécessaire pour affronter la vie. 🙏🏻
This is the song my husband and I danced to when we got married. Now my husband passed away in September, I miss him very much and listen to this song often.🙏
Stumbling upon this song from an extreme crying episode over suddenly losing my best furry friend Dexter seven months ago. The grief is still as strong as it was the day he died. I long and pray to see him again in Heaven again someday and pray that he hears me telling him how much I love and miss him everyday and how much I want to see him again. So sorry if you ever felt taken for granted, Dexter. Life is not the same without you. "Let this be my prayer"
I discovered this beautiful song when my dad passed away unexpectedly a year ago. Today it feels different, when i listen to this song I feel peace in my mind. Rest in peace dad.
@Corine, I am so very sorry for your loss, but thankful you have peace. In a few weeks, it will be 20 yrs since my Daddy passed away. I have peace bc I know where he is, but of course I miss him. I'm thankful for good memories. Hugs 🤗🙏🏻❤️
Lets all pray together to fight againts the corona virus 2019. Lord please hear our prayers and heal our broken land. Have mercy on us. Give us a strenght and courage to face in time of crisis.
We could lose Andrea Bocelli because of the coward liberals in your country I BEG YOU people of Italy stand up and fight to remove the globalist Political Leaders who have infiltrated your government, then remove those enemies within the country make Italy, Italy again if NOT at least be thankful so many Italian Families immigrated to America or the Italian bloodline might be lost forever. WAKE UP
Praying dear lord healer of all that this corona virus like the plague bypass your beloved children..and give strength and peace to all those afflicted...amen
"The Prayer" [Celine Dion:] I pray you'll be our eyes And watch us where we go And help us to be wise In times when we don't know Let this be our prayer When we lose our way Lead us to a place Guide us with your grace To a place where we'll be safe [Andrea Bocelli (Celine Dion):] La luce che tu hai (I pray we'll find your light) Nel cuore resterà (And hold it in our hearts) A ricordarci che (When stars go out each night) L'eterna stella sei (Whoa) Nella mia preghiera (Let this be our prayer) Quanta fede c'è (When shadows fill our day) Lead us to a place (Guide us with your grace) [Both:] Give us faith so we'll be safe Sogniamo un mondo senza più violenza Un mondo di giustizia e di speranza Ognuno dia la mano al suo vicino Simbolo di pace, e di fraternità [Andrea Bocelli (Celine Dion):] La forza che ci dà (We ask that life be kind) È il desiderio che (And watch us from above) Ognuno trovi amor (We hope each soul will find) Intorno e dentro a sé (Another soul to love) [Both:] Let this be our prayer [Celine Dion:] Let this be our prayer [Andrea Bocelli:] Just like every child [Celine Dion:] Just like every child [Both:] Need to find a place Guide us with your grace Give us faith so we'll be safe È la fede che Hai acceso in noi Sento che ci salvera
"Let this be our Prayer...When we lose our way.."....May everyone that reads this find peace and happiness in their hearts tonight. Times are tough...but love is tougher.. ❤💕💖
@@stefanmovieflixtomasi yep sure do! But there has already been permanent damage by way of the number of deaths of the ones sick of all ages. That is the saddest part. But this, like everything else in the history of life, shall pass. But what a pain in the ass it's taking to do so isn't it??!!

"The Prayer" got me through one of my toughest times in my journey of life thus far. July 30th, 2016 I lost a son during pregnancy. Not a day goes by I dont think of him. Isiah Liam your forever with us....
Hello my name is Alicia from Nigeria, I am going through a really difficult time right now..this song gives me comfort from my anxiety and depression 😢. It's not really easy, but I need your prayers 🙏
The BEST Global Duet Song... Ever!!!.. Legendary an Iconics two Timeless Voices are Singing Together!!! Simply INCOMPARABLE and SENSATIONAL!!!!... Touching my Heart Forever!!!....
This song is dedicated to my mother in-law who died too early from the Coronavirus in May 2020 alone in the ICU hospital. Give strength to my husband and his family. Hit the like button if you know of someone who lost their battle from this deadly virus. We will get through this together keep the faith. ❤️
My mother used to play this song when I was a kid. Totally forgot about it, was having a moment and it just popped into my head. The feeling is just amazing as I now remember it used to be hearing this.
Sending prayers to Celine dion for strength and comfort through health difficulties. I used to sing and now don't due to lymphoma but God helps me everyday. I'm also now learning violin.The prayer has helped me to connect to God and I'm so grateful. There is grace in your voice Celine and spirit. Praying for you on your journey through life. God bless. AYVA
There’s so much evil in the world People have lost the way, some never even have been there-God’s love will never give up on us Thank You for Your Son Thank You for Your grace 🙏🏾♥️
I just had a dream where a lady told me this "God has heard your prayers and you're not to worry - you will soon be dancing with the angels in Heaven". This song came to my mind as soon as I awoke and I am bathing in tears of Joy right now.
Personally,I feel safe,because I believe.And every day,every hour,every minute,every second,I pray all people to feel,and be safe.Thank you for the song.Thank you,thank you,thank you for the song.
This Song didn't won the academy award for the song for a film .. it won the Golden Globe Award . .... the most important thing is when the song transcends through the time and the meaning of the song is used as relieve in difficult times ...
The Prayer I love this song It was dedicated to a loving member of our family whom God called home this song was so fitting for him and the lyrics so beautiful he will always be missed but I thought it was just the coolest song ever for him. Acknowledgement to Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli sung with so much feeling and you could feel the passion they put into the song. Thats what made this song what it is The Prayer so Powerful and the message so awesome.
If you want me to do anything to help with your hair let this lady be in charge and she said I can do it and she said no I can’t I don’t have any money 💰 for you and you have no problem 😉
My mom played this on our CD when my dad was dying from cancer, when I hear this whole album makes me nostalgic and always tear up but I know my dad find peace with this song beacuse the same night he passed away ❤
Believe in yourself, your way. It's the first step to loving the world. Trials come and go, but your way is unique. We'll get through COVID-19. I believe.
This was the very first song I was given of yours after my son of 7 years, 11 months, and 5 days had died. I couldn't help but cry and cry and cry. I could heal because I was forcibly reminded that music is a language in heaven. And I was introduced to Andrea Bocelli! Win! Win!
I just want to dedicate this song to all the people who have died, their families, friend and all that knew them, in the Rotterdam, Netherlands in this awful tragedy, sending my love and prayers to all of you at this painful time, God bless you all 🙏🙏🙏
A Beautiful song...about getting closer to God...Lord have Mercy on our sinful world..We areall Sinners and do not deserve your Love and Mercy.Please hear our world wide prayers to rid our world of the pandemic virus..hitting all Nations.Thank you Lord.
Sadly George Floyd was high on drugs, had health problems and a severe criminal record. Breaking into homes with other men and holding a gun to a pregnant woman belly asking if she and her baby wanted to die, etc. George Floyd also had Coronavirus 19. He died from all those things. He resisted arrest, not a good thing. He wasn't "murdered", he died which is sad and very regrettable. May his family have peace and the media & politicians stop lying and trying to hurt and divide us all.
Hi Andre it's Patti I'm from Framingham Massachusetts and I so love this song if you and Celine Dion"I actually love I love your music that you play, I believe I told you back in the 90s I'm 56 now, I used to take care of the elderly, and her name was Mary and she so loved you and your music she discovered you on channel to so everytime I cleaned her home she would play your CD this was back actually in 2000 when I took her to the concert in in Worcester Massachusetts and she was 90 so her son asked me to take you to the concert! It was so amazing I believe it that time I'm not sure it may have been with your dad passed away I'm not sure but it was beautiful because you were playing the background of Italy and showing horses and things like that with you and your dad it was so beautiful"and of course Mary was in a wheelchair and we had front-row seats it was amazing! You are amazing! Now you have your beautiful children your beautiful wife! That Christmas video that you made was unbelievable! Your son is so handsome! He looks like you when you were younger he sounds like you! Was that your daughter as well what an amazing voice the whole Christmas video it's just like a fairy tail"I just want to thank you Andre fun making Mary so happy when I took it to the concert and I got to know your music and I listen to it all the time I'm not sure but I think it's bellissimo I'm not sure I know it starts with a b I have it in my room I'm just looking for it now I can't find it but I'm sure you know what I mean it was in the early 2000 you're leaning over and it looks like you're praying! I miss Mary so very much I have not stopped listening to it since I'm 56 now like I said or I may have said I'm not sure but I just want to tell you again about that CD and boy it was hard to find the CD with you and Celine Dion I had to purchase it through some guy but it finally arrived! You should put your CDs up more and sell them because you are amazing and again this Christmas one that should go and receive 20000 rewards your family you!! You're all amazing in this video and I really truly hope you get recognized well have a blessed day Andre! So much love to your family! And of course you! Oh by the way is your son marry that sings and looks just like you and his mom to of course! I'm just kidding Andre I'll have a blessed day always Patricia 🙏🌹💞
Thanks everyone, yesterday was 4 months since he passed. I listen to this song as I sit here and remember him always. He’s always with me. I can feel his presence even if I can’t see him.
When young people ask me why my taste in music is so sophisticated, I play them this song. I then explain that this is the caliber of music I listened to as a kid into my teen years and what I still prefer listening to as an adult. It's a huge honor and privilege to have grown up in the era I grew up in. Being exposed to a plethora of beautiful songs as a young child inspired me to become a classically trained musician myself. Sadly the majority of today's youth aren't exposed to this quality of music anymore. Most young ones don't even know what high quality music consists of. What's worse is I've personally heard comments from certain millennial-aged individuals where they referred to this music as "cheesy" or a "snoozefest". I, on the other hand, view this as extraordinarily gorgeous. You just can't go wrong with the combination of Céline Dion and Andrea Bocelli!
I'm far fom being a millennial, im 23 so that makes me a Gen Z but I appreciate this kind of music, my buddies says im weird but i dont mind, to each his own i guess, my parents both have great taste musically, so that explains it.
@@AG1LA Well I'm glad that, despite being Gen Z, you still have great taste in music! My niece is also Gen Z and has great taste in music as well. The advice I gave to her years ago is to never let anyone change that. It doesn't matter what anyone thinks about your taste in music, movies, books, etc. If you enjoy a specific genre, then continue to enjoy it. As a Gen X'er, I grew up in an era where heavy rock music was THE in thing. Absolutely everyone was into it at the time. Meanwhile I was listening to classical/orchestral music on a daily basis. Heavy metal and grunge never really interested me, despite their immense popularity. Did my friends tease me? Of course. Did I care? No! I really didn't and still don't. Own your interests. If anyone ever tells you you're weird because your interests don't align with theirs, say thank you for the compliment. It's better to be weird than to conform to society. Never be afraid to be yourself. 🙂
i always feel so blessed whenever I hear Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli sing "The Prayer." Thank you so very much !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Am 79 years old, live in Hawaii, and love these two talented and magical singers !!!!!! Gratefully, Robert S.J. Hu Oct. 26, 2021.
Was never prouder to BE 💥CANADIAN. God please help this world through this pandemic. Canadia the strongest, most caring nation on earth. CANADIAN STRONG.💥💋💟💞❤💥💥💥🧡💛💚💙💜❣
Dear Celine,this song is so beautiful, my granddaughter (a music teacher) in a small town , and her husband and she sing it to us often ...just wanted to tell you ,you are so loved, .... and of precious worth .. you ... of so many,, Caring from afar... in the US👋
My wife and I played this song as we walked down the aisle after our wedding ceremony. She died last week and I play this song whenever I'm down. I miss her.💗💗💗
My condolences to you and your family during this saddening time
I know how u feel I lost my fiancé in July to cancer
God be with you 🙏BE blessed in Abundance!!
She's in your heart. So sorry for your loss.
@@katieyeager1270 sorry to hear about your fiancé.
My wife is suffering from breast cancer, may the prayer with her, she is doing well.
I am so sorry . I wish you and your wife the best possible.
But if you want to get real sense of love and protection, listen to two fallen angels: Lucy and Martha Thomas singing this same song....
Search for "Lucy the prayer" in youtube
Your hearts and souls will be uplifted . Celine and Andrea are very good singers , but they are professionals. I had the sensation that something was missing. I found it in Lucy and Martha performance: real sincerity.
Sorry to hear this
Prayers 🙏🙏🕊️
how is she doing now?
That GOD bless your wife dear brother
I lost my only 2 sons only 22 and 21 years old four months apart the same year. The prayer gives me total peace within my heart and soul and reason to live❤❤
❤❤❤
My biggest sympathies ❤
I'm so sorry
Prayers for u dear
I am so sorry for your losses, that is unimaginable....
Prayers for Celine Dion. She seems like such a beautiful person. Sad she's suffering from such a grave illness.😢
shes handling it with so much grace and poise. and still so loving to her children. i idolize so few people but she is unambiguously inspirational.
My name is Yonatan (John) I'm Jewish, and going through a difficult time, with depression and anxiety in my life. Having a difficult time to function properly. I would appreciate your prayers very much. I just want to be happy again, and hopeful about the future. Thank you to all those who might pray for me. I have nothing to lose at this point
my friend i experienced the exact same thing and my hope in the darkness was jesus. he did more than i hoped for, anxiety is far away from me and peace lives in me. please try to reach him, it’s so simple. few words from your heart will touch his heart.
Yonatan, I pray you have come through that phase and have regained the ability to make the most of our time here on Earth as we know it.
I'm Christian and understand and have fully accepted Jesus as the messiah, Lord and Saviour. I have found no greater comfort or teachings on this planet than His. To me, Jesus is King "the way, the truth, and the life..." John 14:6 💖👑➕️🕊🛐🙏

When I found out that I have stage 4 uterine cancer I suddenly was no longer depressed. I want to live because I never understood gratitude. I do now and I want to live it out. Depression is hard and no one can really understand your depression nor can they help you lean on God and try to practice gratitude. Easier said than done. I care and I will pray for you.
I pray for you Yonatan. I am also going through difficult times. It will be over one day, don't worry
One of the best Christmas songs ever written!
Beautiful Song 🎶I love this Song ❤️🙏👏🫶😇✝️💞🥹 they Both Have Incredible Voice and Singing 🤩 God bless you always 🥰🙏
My mom plays this song for my son since he was 1 week old... now at 7 months it's the only song that calms him instantly!! Even if he's having a fit, he will instantly stop crying and listen ❤
@missjuliej1
My little boy does the same he loves this song and instantly stops fussing when I play this song

There is no other song that brings me to tears. Andrea Bocelli is matchless.

Yes.. This song and Andrea Bocelli and Sarah Brightman Time to say Goodbye
So is celine

On 03/17/2001, I was driving from Chicago area down to Florida to catch some spring b training games. I am a night shift nurse and love to drive at night and straight through. It was dusting with snow as I got near Crown Point, IN. I kid you not, I was playing this song and singing along. Just at the part in the beginning "and watch us where we go", the semi in front of the van in front of me jacknifed. I had anti-lock brakes so went into 360 degree spin twice. The van in front did not and shot directly into the jacknifed semi. I came to a rest just as the impact happened. I jumped from my car and ran to try to help. Unfortunately the father and pregnant mother in front seat had dies on impact. However in the back seat there were 2 crying kids covered in fine glass. I stayed with them at the hospital until family could come from Wisconsin. I still am in touch with the little girl. I had so much survivor's guilt after this. I would have traded places with those parents in a heartbeat. The mom had been a nurse and dad a physical therapist. The kids were 4, 2 and mom had been pregnant with a boy. They were the perfect family and here I was a single mom doing whatever I fancied. I was a Christian, went to church, went through the motions...but it was this tragedy that made me realize that God spared me. He had a purpose for me. This song, "The Prayer" means so much.

I was Blessed with the most Godly Landlord, my heart's prayer is for our Lord & Blessed Mother to never leave his side💙🌹
This is the song my husband and I danced to when we got married. Now my husband passed away in September, I miss him very much and listen to this song often.🙏
❤🙏 Peace
Stumbling upon this song from an extreme crying episode over suddenly losing my best furry friend Dexter seven months ago. The grief is still as strong as it was the day he died. I long and pray to see him again in Heaven again someday and pray that he hears me telling him how much I love and miss him everyday and how much I want to see him again. So sorry if you ever felt taken for granted, Dexter. Life is not the same without you. "Let this be my prayer"
Sorry to hear about Dexter
Sogniamo un mondo senza più violenza, un mondo di giustizia e speranza...
Si eu m- am trezit si astazi cu acelasi vis!
🙏🙏❤️❤️🍀🍀✨✨🌹🌹🌟🌟🥰🥰
A lot of Italians are racist
I discovered this beautiful song when my dad passed away unexpectedly a year ago. Today it feels different, when i listen to this song I feel peace in my mind. Rest in peace dad.
The love in this song is indeed healing. May all our loved ones who have departed live forever in our hearts.

"The Prayer"
[Celine Dion:]
I pray you'll be our eyes
And watch us where we go
And help us to be wise
In times when we don't know
Let this be our prayer
When we lose our way
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
To a place where we'll be safe
[Andrea Bocelli (Celine Dion):]
La luce che tu hai
(I pray we'll find your light)
Nel cuore resterà
(And hold it in our hearts)
A ricordarci che
(When stars go out each night)
L'eterna stella sei
(Whoa)
Nella mia preghiera
(Let this be our prayer)
Quanta fede c'è
(When shadows fill our day)
Lead us to a place
(Guide us with your grace)
[Both:]
Give us faith so we'll be safe
Sogniamo un mondo senza più violenza
Un mondo di giustizia e di speranza
Ognuno dia la mano al suo vicino
Simbolo di pace, e di fraternità
[Andrea Bocelli (Celine Dion):]
La forza che ci dà
(We ask that life be kind)
È il desiderio che
(And watch us from above)
Ognuno trovi amor
(We hope each soul will find)
Intorno e dentro a sé
(Another soul to love)
[Both:]
Let this be our prayer
[Celine Dion:]
Let this be our prayer
[Andrea Bocelli:]
Just like every child
[Celine Dion:]
Just like every child
[Both:]
Need to find a place
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe
È la fede che
Hai acceso in noi
Sento che ci salvera
Thanks for the lyrics.

Nick Joudeh beautiful display of those lyrics
@@stefanmovieflixtomasi Thank you Stefan. Much love!
Nick Joudeh you’re welcome. Do you believe that we will get thru this virus like the one from 2003? SARS
@@stefanmovieflixtomasi yep sure do! But there has already been permanent damage by way of the number of deaths of the ones sick of all ages. That is the saddest part. But this, like everything else in the history of life, shall pass. But what a pain in the ass it's taking to do so isn't it??!!
Faith, hope, love - these three! But the greatest of these is love. :)

I just watched the Netflix doco about Celine's tragic illness. What a lovely human being she is. And Andrea...
My mother used to play this song when I was a kid. Totally forgot about it, was having a moment and it just popped into my head. The feeling is just amazing as I now remember it used to be hearing this.
I remember when I was in South Africa and buy this album edition on Christmas, I am moslem but find this song calm and cheers my cloudy days.
Good for you 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 you have a great taste in music xx
It was my mom's prayer for us when we were away. This song brings back a lot of memories of my mom and her prayer for us.
Andi Laksana, though we have different beliefs in how we worship, I like to think we all worship the same God.
Humanity is peak of religion
We all say our prayers don't we? So beautiful.
This was the song that was playing when my mom took her last breath. It was beautiful.
So sorry for your loss
My darling baby grandson died 2years ago and I heard this beautiful song the week he died.
So beautiful but makes me cry everytime I listen to it.
This song is for Kenny Lemons who left us on 4-20-24. You are in a better place in Heaven now. No more suffering ❤🥹
Oh Lord. This is my prayer. Lead us to a place. Guide us with your grace. Give us faith so we will be safe
Sending prayers to Celine dion for strength and comfort through health difficulties. I used to sing and now don't due to lymphoma but God helps me everyday. I'm also now learning violin.The prayer has helped me to connect to God and I'm so grateful. There is grace in your voice Celine and spirit. Praying for you on your journey through life. God bless. AYVA
Beautiful critique of this song and prayers for Cèline for her health issues
The greatest duet of all time.
I have to sing this for a concert today with my teacher, wish me luck 😥.
Good luck
There’s so much evil in the world
People have lost the way, some never even have been there-God’s love will never give up on us
Thank You for Your Son
Thank You for Your grace 🙏🏾♥️

I just had a dream where a lady told me this "God has heard your prayers and you're not to worry - you will soon be dancing with the angels in Heaven". This song came to my mind as soon as I awoke and I am bathing in tears of Joy right now.
Dylan Knell that is a beautiful dream
Thanks so much Celine and Andrea for sharing your gifts with the world. You inspire us to make our 'little" lives a prayer.
Beautiful thank you shoutout
Personally,I feel safe,because I believe.And every day,every hour,every minute,every second,I pray all people to feel,and be safe.Thank you for the song.Thank you,thank you,thank you for the song.

This Song didn't won the academy award for the song for a film .. it won the Golden Globe Award . .... the most important thing is when the song transcends through the time and the meaning of the song is used as relieve in difficult times ...
The Prayer
I love this song It was dedicated to a loving member of our family whom God called
home this song was so fitting for him and the lyrics so beautiful he will always be
missed but I thought it was just the coolest song ever for him. Acknowledgement to
Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli sung with so much feeling and you could feel the
passion they put into the song. Thats what made this song what it is The Prayer so
Powerful and the message so awesome.
If you want me to do anything to help with your hair let this lady be in charge and she said I can do it and she said no I can’t I don’t have any money 💰 for you and you have no problem 😉
My song for my father. Ex tenor with The Welsh National Opera Company. Soon to be laid to rest. ❤
I too,am so sad of the loss of my husband many many years ago then my eldest son last year. Painful really that can't control my tears with this song!
My mom played this on our CD when my dad was dying from cancer, when I hear this whole album makes me nostalgic and always tear up but I know my dad find peace with this song beacuse the same night he passed away ❤
My condolences to you and your family. So beautiful
My heart and prayers go out to your family
❤️
And i felt that💓❤😔
May he RIP. So sorry for your loss, God bless.
We need everyone to come together in a power prayer tonight! Peace be restored!

Tina Booth I have faith that we will get through this bad and malicious yet harsh virus. We’re all in this together
Believe in yourself, your way. It's the first step to loving the world. Trials come and go, but your way is unique. We'll get through COVID-19. I believe.
Yes we have faith that we’ll get through COVID. SARS passed and the same must go for this virus
Getting your vibrato to match another human, MAGIC 💕
This was the very first song I was given of yours after my son of 7 years, 11 months, and 5 days had died. I couldn't help but cry and cry and cry. I could heal because I was forcibly reminded that music is a language in heaven.
And I was introduced to Andrea Bocelli!
Win! Win!
I just want to dedicate this song to all the people who have died, their families, friend and all that knew them, in the Rotterdam, Netherlands in this awful tragedy, sending my love and prayers to all of you at this painful time, God bless you all 🙏🙏🙏
The Prayer is never more needed than now .🇬🇧🇺🇸🙏💕🌹
A Beautiful song...about getting closer to God...Lord have Mercy on our sinful world..We areall Sinners and do not deserve your Love and Mercy.Please hear our world wide prayers to rid our world of the pandemic virus..hitting all Nations.Thank you Lord.
Jamie-lee Ramsey sorry for your loss. This pandemic has been one of the hardest things. Also, the murder of George Floyd
Jay Fox 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@jamie-leeramsey6146 so sorry for your loss. Sending u so much ❤️ seen so many people die from this awful awful virus.
Sadly George Floyd was high on drugs, had health problems and a severe criminal record. Breaking into homes with other men and holding a gun to a pregnant woman belly asking if she and her baby wanted to die, etc. George Floyd also had Coronavirus 19. He died from all those things. He resisted arrest, not a good thing. He wasn't "murdered", he died which is sad and very regrettable. May his family have peace and the media & politicians stop lying and trying to hurt and divide us all.
Cause there is no way can live for Jesus when we're liven in the flesh
So I pray that you allow our sprits to be born
God bless everyone who has lost family.
Hi Andre it's Patti I'm from Framingham Massachusetts and I so love this song if you and Celine Dion"I actually love I love your music that you play, I believe I told you back in the 90s I'm 56 now, I used to take care of the elderly, and her name was Mary and she so loved you and your music she discovered you on channel to so everytime I cleaned her home she would play your CD this was back actually in 2000 when I took her to the concert in in Worcester Massachusetts and she was 90 so her son asked me to take you to the concert! It was so amazing I believe it that time I'm not sure it may have been with your dad passed away I'm not sure but it was beautiful because you were playing the background of Italy and showing horses and things like that with you and your dad it was so beautiful"and of course Mary was in a wheelchair and we had front-row seats it was amazing! You are amazing! Now you have your beautiful children your beautiful wife! That Christmas video that you made was unbelievable! Your son is so handsome! He looks like you when you were younger he sounds like you! Was that your daughter as well what an amazing voice the whole Christmas video it's just like a fairy tail"I just want to thank you Andre fun making Mary so happy when I took it to the concert and I got to know your music and I listen to it all the time I'm not sure but I think it's bellissimo I'm not sure I know it starts with a b I have it in my room I'm just looking for it now I can't find it but I'm sure you know what I mean it was in the early 2000 you're leaning over and it looks like you're praying! I miss Mary so very much I have not stopped listening to it since I'm 56 now like I said or I may have said I'm not sure but I just want to tell you again about that CD and boy it was hard to find the CD with you and Celine Dion I had to purchase it through some guy but it finally arrived!

Habt ihr schon Mal einen Chor in eine Kathedrale gesungen oder gehört..oder Kirche ...es ist unglaublich..es ist wie ein Balsam für deine Seele ...🙏🙏
Any song with Celine Dion is heavenly ❤️❤️❤️
Any song either one of these artists sing is heavenly
At home with corvid and through my window my dearest beloved friend played this song from her car radio and we heard "The Prayer". Amen
That’s beautiful. We need happiness and peace like this during harsh and hectic times of the pandemic

Love to you!❤
This Song played at my Dad's funeral it got me crying to the floor 😭
When young people ask me why my taste in music is so sophisticated, I play them this song. I then explain that this is the caliber of music I listened to as a kid into my teen years and what I still prefer listening to as an adult. It's a huge honor and privilege to have grown up in the era I grew up in. Being exposed to a plethora of beautiful songs as a young child inspired me to become a classically trained musician myself. Sadly the majority of today's youth aren't exposed to this quality of music anymore. Most young ones don't even know what high quality music consists of. What's worse is I've personally heard comments from certain millennial-aged individuals where they referred to this music as "cheesy" or a "snoozefest". I, on the other hand, view this as extraordinarily gorgeous. You just can't go wrong with the combination of Céline Dion and Andrea Bocelli!
I'm far fom being a millennial, im 23 so that makes me a Gen Z but I appreciate this kind of music, my buddies says im weird but i dont mind, to each his own i guess, my parents both have great taste musically, so that explains it.
@@AG1LA Well I'm glad that, despite being Gen Z, you still have great taste in music! My niece is also Gen Z and has great taste in music as well. The advice I gave to her years ago is to never let anyone change that. It doesn't matter what anyone thinks about your taste in music, movies, books, etc. If you enjoy a specific genre, then continue to enjoy it.
As a Gen X'er, I grew up in an era where heavy rock music was THE in thing. Absolutely everyone was into it at the time. Meanwhile I was listening to classical/orchestral music on a daily basis. Heavy metal and grunge never really interested me, despite their immense popularity. Did my friends tease me? Of course. Did I care? No! I really didn't and still don't. Own your interests. If anyone ever tells you you're weird because your interests don't align with theirs, say thank you for the compliment. It's better to be weird than to conform to society. Never be afraid to be yourself. 🙂
@@BreannaMae your comment is very familiar, you sound exactly like my mom, Lol 😂
Anyway, thanks.
@@AG1LA Haha well I'm old enough to be your mom, so that makes sense! You're welcome 😂
