Wow we can't believe it has almost been a year since this song! What a year it has been! Here is the link to our CD with this song that we came out with: matandsavanna.link/Picture-This-Album. Thanks for all the love and support over this year!
I was a professional singer for 20 years, and then I was blessed at 40 to have a perfect little girl, with the voice of an angel....shes 27 years old now, and this was our signature song.....we dont sing together anymore, because I had throat cancer, that took my voice away.....but as long as I can hear my angel sing from time to time, I dont miss my voice at all....I passed the torch...after all that's what a good dad does! You both have beautiful voices, perfect pitch, and amazing range! God bless you, and keep making those memories! Dad, you should be so proud!
My husband and I began listening to your beautiful voices six months ago. He was diagnosed with stage four liver cancer in July. I played this for him daily and we cried together because you touched us so deeply. He is now singing with the angels and I continue to listen to you daily. Thankyou for blessing us!!
My husband has been battling cancer. He was in the hospital having part of his liver removed and because of the Corona Virus I was not allowed in the hospital to be at his side. I was home pacing and scared. A friend sent me an email and told me to listen. I sat alone at my computer, listening to your song, with tears streaming down my face. I have heard The Prayer sung by many different artists but you two are the most amazing! Not only do you have the most beautiful voices, you two have the most pure, sincere voices! You sing from your soul! I can't thank you enough for touching the deepest part of me and lifting me up during a very dark and scary moment in my life. You both have been given an incredible gift. God Bless You for using it to lift so many others! With Love and Gratitude, Debbie
prayers for you and your husband and such an great comment. to such amazing talent. I just stumbled onto this and it was amazing while sitting here crying and listening to them
Sending prayers and good wishes to you and your husband Debbie, and as the song says, "Guide us with your Grace", and the words to Mat and Savanna echo my own feelings, they are simply the best!
Debbie, Sorry for what you and your husband are going thru. I will pray that God will comfort you and give you peace thru this trying time. I pray your husband will be healed from this cancer in Jesus' name.
Matt and his daughter Savannah have such a chemistry between them, beautifully blending, not missing a beat, always in sync. He has such a piercing look. Sorry to say but he's one handsome humble man. Hope you'll be making music, way into the years.
My wife decided when she found this several days ago that she would play this first thing every morning as long as we are quarantined. It is so beautiful and uplifting. Thank you both!
And here I am - a 28 year old lying here on my bed, in India Tears rolling down down my cheek. It's a blessing to have a daughter who can sing like this. And a bigger blessing is he who has trained her. Clearly! He is a fantastic singer himself! Bless you guys. Bless you. You give us hope.
@@jgleason1409 was she populair and was and the news for her sining befor agt? No, these 2 are. If you're not recognised at first agt is a solid platform to start your career of of, but otherwise not
There is something special about the two voices together. Without doubt, they sing beautifully together, and someone mentioned how he looks sideways at his daughter you can see the love that's there. Very special.
Mat and Savanna, this is by far the happiest, most beautiful thing I have seen recently. I am an ER nurse and am surrounded by the chaos and fear of what is going on right now. It is SO nice to see and hear this uplifting rendition of one of my favorite songs. It is just so timely. Thank you.
I know! I'm one. lol, well I did record a duet with the country music legend Johnny PayCheck called "I Love My Jesus" and it was on the radio nationally and charted 2nd highest debut of the week right below Little Texas with "First Time For Everything" and that was on the secular charts not religious. But I didn't make it. I think that mixing genre's was not a great idea but that's what I wanted to do.
In a world totally distraught over Covid 19, this incredible duo, bring a light into a very dark place. Amazing , love their voices. A God given ability.
I've desperately needed a good PT after numerous surgeries, including both knees fully replaced. You folks are AWESOME! My surgeries were so successful because of excellent PT follow-up. So said my surgeons. I followed the instructions perfectly, despite some pain and endless icing, but I got outstanding results. By the way... The knee CryoCuff, recommended by one PT after my first knee replacement, made all the difference, too. You deserve a blessed rest after your long work day. Just know you're making a life-changing difference in your clients' lives. Thank you! 💖
Oh, I forgot to mention that he has a beautiful smile as well. Especially when Savannah hits the high notes, he looks at her and smiles. As a singer you have to smile a lot. Can't look grumpy 😊
I cannot imagine anyone singing this better. Your voices are perfection without all of the vocal pyrotechnics so prevalent in popular music today. Simple, sweet harmony by two supremely gifted vocalists. Very uplifting in this stressful time.
Except they were not singing, they were lip syncing. Good lip sync though. See my show, a UA-cam world record here aheadband.com/album/new-headband-album-coming-out-soon/
Her voice is DEFINITELY an angel voice! It's so amazingly beautiful! I sing..buy not anything like this...wish I could sound like this! Thank you for the beautiful songs!
WOW......certainly moved this 62-year old widower to tears, having lost my wife of 20+ years just last year, I'm emotional enough as it is. What an absolutely beautiful moving performance. If there was ever a time we needed prayer more in our nation, NOW is that time. THANK YOU so much for sharing your wonderful talent. GOD bless you both.
Jeff Fehlig sorry to hear bout your loss, I wish you the best and hope and pray your staying safe through this time! Wish you the best- prays go your way! 💐🙏💐
Jeff Fehlig I am 59 and lost my husband 11 years ago and I thought the same thing you did. People do not realize that the pain never goes away and that it just gets farther from the initial pain. My prayer is that when this is all over that everyone remembers what we went through and how precious our loved ones are.
As a working musician of some 74 yrs standing , I’ve seen and heard a lot of singers over the years , and you cannot compère one with another , this young lady gave me one of those Caren Carpenter moments , unique and natural . Superb .
I remember seeing this video the day it came out and I became one of their first fans. Savanna said she wanted to record this for her friends at home in quarantine and asked her Dad, Mat, to sing it with her. He had been out mowing the lawn. Savanna asked him to clean up a little, he said, why, how many will see this? Well we now know the answer to that. Millions! The most successful new duet in the pandemic. They fill our lives with new music every week, more albums and concerts continue to come out. Stay tuned.
I've listened to this simply beautiful performance about 10 times and each time I find myself crying. It moves me so much. I think it's because, not only are the father and daughter extremely talented, but you can feel the loving connection between the two. There's no pretension...no manufactured setting.. just a father and daughter in their living room effortlessly and beautifully sharing their gift of music. Hands down, for me, the best rendition of "The Prayer" including Josh Groban, Celine Dion, and Andrea Bocelli's versions. Thank you for sharing your gifts with us.
Lauren Fesik took the words right out of MY mouth AND heart! Such a loving Daddy and his beautiful Daughter!! I have actually started my day by listening AGAIN! My Husaband's name comes up ... but I am leaving the comment. Sue Cone
I completely agree. For all the reasons you've stated. I just can't stop listening to these two! I'm clear they could go pro, and yet I hope they don't change a thing.
Father and Daughter that is very heart felt, I’m a grown man and I seldom cry but when you two sing it brings tears to my eyes, God bless the both of you
William Oser .... yes, my ear is tuned to right or wrong notes. This was phenomenal. Not one up or down note. Sour or otherwise ... everything was right on the money and the mark. Completely well done. Can you imagine what could be accomplished with a major studio and equipment?
William here is my question to you. So I took voice lessons in high school and sang in choirs starting in middle school until I graduated high school. I DON’T have s solo quality voice- I blend well with other singers. I don’t have a vibratos and my voice teacher never addressed how to do that with me. Is there something I can do to make that happen? Thank you
We played this at my Dad's funeral yesterday. Thank You, made a difficult day a lot easier. Everyone commented about the song choice and how brilliant it was. So Again Thank you x
You are both a ray of sunshine in our unsettled world. We need more people like you to help keep our faith that everything will be all right. Thank you.
omg I can't stop listening to this father and daughter. Maybe because my dad was a great muso too, but all about himself. I feel the pride and love here ❤
@@MatandSavanna .....I've listened to this and other of your duets - a few times - and I often have the same reaction - a mixture of tears and laughter....Both, because I am overcome with how beautiful and joyful are , the sounds that you both create. No idea WHAT the future holds for your daughter...I do hope that it includes music and entertaining others .
At the line, “a world where pain and sorrow will be ended…” the lamp behind the two of you came on. I want to believe that was a sign! Thank you both for sharing God’s word, His gift, and His joy with the rest of us!
This is amazing. Not only is her voice beautiful, pure, and fresh, but Dad’s voice is resonant, excellent, and comforting! But the best part, is watching a loving Father spend time with his beloved daughter...🙏💝🕊👫🎶⏳
My wife fell in love with this this morning when she found it on Facebook. She must have played it 10 times already. She wishes she could hear this when she goes to bed at night since she has so much trouble sleeping. May God bless you both and keep you safe during these trying times. She also wants this played when she passes on. Brought tears to my eyes. God bless you both and keep up the amazing work you are doing
My lovely 96 year old mum just passed away from covid pneumonia & we plan to play your beautiful rendition at her funeral on 24 July. It's just perfect.💞
Just came back to listen to this again. How appropriate are these words even today when Ukraine needs our prayers more than ever. Thank you again for sharing your voice and giving comfort when needed.
What a great rendition of this sweet song--especially great because a daughter and Father are doing it together, God bless them. Thank you for sharing.
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. I pray we'll find your light I pray we'll find your light And hold it in our hearts And hold it in our hearts When stars go out each night When the stars go out each night Remind us where you are. Oohhh.... Let this be our prayer Let this be our prayer When shadows fill our day When shadows fill our day Lead us to a place Guide us with your grace To a place where we'll be safe. [Together:] A world where pain and sorrow will be ended And every heart that's broken will be mended And we'll remember we are all God's children Reaching out to touch you Reaching to the sky. We ask that life be kind We ask that life be kind And watch us from above And watch us from above We hope each soul will find We hope each soul will find Another soul to love Another soul to love. Let this be our prayer Let this be our prayer Just like every child. Just like every child. [Together :] Needs to find a place Guide us with your grace. With your grace Give us faith so we'll be safe Needs to find a place Guide us with your grace. Give us faith so we'll be safe
It's been almost exactly 11 years since Susan Boyle took our minds off our troubles . I'm a Christian now and the Lord has done that for me. Matt and Savanna , in this time of suffering and isolation, you're a gift from above. Thank you for unselfishly sharing your gift. John
Dad has a very exquisite voice, fit for the opera. One can also understand every clearly enunciated word. Daughter truly has a natural gift that can still be harnessed, so the audience not only hears the beautiful voice but feels the genuine emotion that should flow through the song, from the first note to the last.
@@thevandermanyes, Dad has a pure tenor with oodles of personality! Daughter has a mature technique already and her voice is spectacular, seems to range from contralto right up to a high soprano? I wonder if her vocals are intuitive or trained. I have no expertise, but it certainly sounds like she has taken years of voice training. I hope that we see her on the opera stage one day, ie hope she will do more with her instrument than sing Broadway songs on UA-cam.
During this pandemic, I go outside every night and sit into driveway looking up at the stars playing music on UA-cam from the 60’s and 70’s. I play this one as well every night. Both of them are better than any version. I don’t know how long they had to practice to hit perfection with the way their voices harmonized, but it could not be better. Both appear to be very strong individually, but they are perfect together!
Charlotte Church and Josh Groban were better than Bocelli and Dion IMHO. Then, for an amateur duo, I would look no further than Jonathan Antoine and Charlotte Jaconelli; the two who sang this song for their Britain's Got Talent audition in 2012.
Could not agree more!! If this virus has taught me anything, it is how much I love and miss my daughter. Not that I didn't know it already, but living a few miles from her and not having seen her in almost 2 months other than on a video call... well, that gets to a Dad. Go hug your daughter if you can, buddy. And stay safe!
You two are absolutely inspirational. I used to like Celine/Andrei and Josh Groban, now I like you. Well, all of you. I am 73 and taking care of 82 y/o sis on dialysis and a 84 y/o sis with dementia. This pandemic sometimes overwhelms me. I just heard you two and I think I will be alright with my supporters. I say you are now among them. I will be listening in more.Thank you for your Heavenly voices. God's Blessings be with you both.
When it was sung partly in Italian, we missed these words: A world where pain and sorrow will be ended, And every heart that's broken will be mended, And we'll remember we are all God's children, Reaching out to touch you Reaching to the sky. Thank you for singing there meaningful words in English.
How could people hit thumbs down to this beautiful father daughter duet is beyond me. Mat and Savanna, may God bless you and your family more and more. Stay safe and remain healthy.
@@neonsparky It is them singing, its just not a live performance in the Video, the room is too big, there is little to no reverb/echo, no room noise, and just one mic spaced that far away would sound really different. Also, how are they hearing the backing track with no headphones, if they were using speakers it would interfere with the recording from the mic. I'm not doubting their singing ability, or that its not them singing, its just that they are lip sinking over a track that they made earlier, in a acoustically treated room. They are really good singers, and i would love to hear them in a live setting, i think they would be absolutely amazing.
In a world of uncertainties due to Covid-19.....some songs can lift us up into the realm of hope, peace, love and healing......thank you to this father/daughter's superb rendition of this beautiful song.
That daddy should get Father of the year ! Not only for NOT allowing his beautiful daughter at 13 Not to go on Social Media except to sing with her dad but the love they share❤️
Beautiful music is Peace, Joy, and Love that God has intended for each of us. Music is a place of Refuge, Solitude, yet the music is a friend that reminds us of God’s love.
Mat, you and your daughter are an inspiration, especially in today's world. While I can't speak for everyone, please know that the two of you are the kind of inspiration we all need.
This Father Daughter rendition is a winner...by the end I was starting to tear up. Amazing rendition....Please don't hide anymore, let the world hear your voices, PLEASE>
When I first saw this I heard Savanna and thought "Well, she's okay, but I won't be able to listen to him," and stood poised to turn it off. As soon as Mat started I sat bolt upright & turned the volume up: "WOW! He's really good!!" Since then I have listened to it countless times, each time feeling God's love. It is glorious. Thank you so much.
If we just ignore the singing and watch Dad, the pride is obvious. The love is clear. Bravo! Add the singing into this and it's just magical. Loved it all. Beautiful voices and and gorgeous duet. Thank you for sharing!
In times of dark days, it is so uplifting to hear angelic voices singing to lift our hearts to God. This is truly the most beautiful song sung by a father and daughter together. It's refreshing to hear such a beautiful rendition! Thank-you
So beautiful and inspiring and such a delight to have a father and daughter singing together. Nothing quite like it. Thanks (from a daddy of four daughters).
The young lady's voice is about as perfect as can be. Her tonal work is perfection - each note dead on and her voice and dynamics are are superb. What a beautiful voice. When her dad joined in - I could see where she got that tonal accuracy from -he was equally in tune, clear and dynamic. Their voices - as do many in the same family - are perfectly blended for each other. I would love to hear more from them.
Edward Blankinship Beautiful singing. The one thing that made me feel complete is the Holy Spirit after I repented & was baptised by full emersion. I can now pray to God & know that he hears my every prayer. trftalkradio.com
The Lord is our refuge and strength and We are safe under His wing. He has given you two a beautiful gift! Thank you for sharing your gift with us. Jesus is our Grace! ❤️🙏
I think that the daddy/daughter relationship is one of the most precious on earth. This has it all--sweetness and strength. I LOVE that the dad is wearing a cap and T-shirt. They are so ordinary and EXTAordinary at the same time. I have watched the over and over with tears every time. What a day brightener in these anxious times--life is beautiful and so is this pair!
He said he had dreams of becoming a singer and he put it on pause until she came to him and this shows that everything that is put on hold it’s because there is a time and place for everything that’s supposed to happen in your life he was meant to wait for this !! If you are struggling in these crazy time just know things will fall into place for you when it is your time !! Don’t give up
Dear Mat and Savanna, I first discovered this song and video in April 2020, the morning I received news that my closest friend of 50 years had died from Covid at the age of 57. It brought me tremendous comfort to listen to your wonderful voices singing this lovely song or indeed prayer. Thank you so much. All if you songs are wonderful but this remains my favorite. Continued success and God Bless. Doug
Wow we can't believe it has almost been a year since this song! What a year it has been! Here is the link to our CD with this song that we came out with: matandsavanna.link/Picture-This-Album. Thanks for all the love and support over this year!
Absolutely amazing!!!! Thank you SO MUCH for sharing y'all's god given talent!!! Your voices hit a special place in my soul. 💙💙
you guys helped me fight my battle with depression. thank you and god bless you❤
i love it, many times i repeat to heard this song
Still my favorite of all your songs. Just lovely.

Good idea. I wanted to post it again too. I’ve only listened to it about 30 times already.
That is a great idea God Bless
Good idea!!
And here I am - a 28 year old lying here on my bed, in India
Tears rolling down down my cheek.
It's a blessing to have a daughter who can sing like this. And a bigger blessing is he who has trained her.
Clearly! He is a fantastic singer himself!
Bless you guys. Bless you.
You give us hope.
Believe me it is a blessing to just HAVE a daughter. I have four!
such a good prayer in time of confussion like now..
God bless you there in India. May God wrap you in love and grace. And for this father and daughter. Thank you.

Most definitely
This is just what the world needs right now! A father singing with his daughter!! Nothing more beautiful!!!
What about a mother singing with her son?
So talented!I'm crying.Hello from Ukraine!
There is something special about the two voices together. Without doubt, they sing beautifully together, and someone mentioned how he looks sideways at his daughter you can see the love that's there. Very special.
This video was a real beacon of light when COVID first turned everything upside down. I'll never forget it!
I keep playing this over and over. Not knocking Celine and Josh, but I have to say this is truly amazing.
Love The Prayer for my daughters wedding but Celine’s version whilst beautiful could not be understood. This is just pure perfection.
Michele Overstreet Me too! Beautiful..heartfelt & pure
Michele Overstreet - same here, keep playing it over. Beyond beautiful, plus their beautiful father/daughter bond is just heart melting
This is my very favourite that you sing. I can’t stop listening to it. It’s beautiful.
When I stumbled across it, by luck, that's exactly what I did, put it on continuous play
Mat and Savanna, this is by far the happiest, most beautiful thing I have seen recently. I am an ER nurse and am surrounded by the chaos and fear of what is going on right now. It is SO nice to see and hear this uplifting rendition of one of my favorite songs. It is just so timely. Thank you.

repeat after me THANK U UA-cam 🙈
I guess will never know, I had this thought many years now.
Yes, very true.
Were all talented and deserve to be heard. Just how much work you willing to put in?
I know!

Comoco yes ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Oh, I forgot to mention that he has a beautiful smile as well. Especially when Savannah hits the high notes, he looks at her and smiles. As a singer you have to smile a lot. Can't look grumpy 😊
Cannot imagine what it feels like for Dad to sing this with daughter....Hold tight to this moment!!
Hollywood, take notes. This is humble, genuine, extraordinary, uplifting and hope-inciting in these times when many need it.

Indeed. Karen Carpenter had a crystal clear voice. Like Karen, Savanna also has a low to high octave range.
nhojtj yes exceptional!

Lauren Fesik took the words right out of MY mouth AND heart! Such a loving Daddy and his beautiful Daughter!! I have actually started my day by listening AGAIN! My Husaband's name comes up ... but I am leaving the comment. Sue Cone
I completely agree. For all the reasons you've stated. I just can't stop listening to these two! I'm clear they could go pro, and yet I hope they don't change a thing.
I am a 73 year-old man and I have the same reaction.

Thank you for all you've done. Thank God for for ALL HE IS!
You all are not alone!
I love how that father looks at his daughter with such love and pride.
Fran Cording just how God looks at us, with deep love and joy
Yes, it is beautiful.
Father and Daughter that is very heart felt, I’m a grown man and I seldom cry but when you two sing it brings tears to my eyes, God bless the both of you
That means a lot to hear, thank you for letting us know the music touched you!
Although the daughter is obviously talented and beautifully confident, I like dad's range and willingness to use it.
EXACTLY!! HES AMAZING!
Can't decide who has the better voice. The heck with it, its a tie. LOVELY, and I'm a high level vocal coach, working with major Broadway performers.
her voice is so beautifully clear
William Oser .... yes, my ear is tuned to right or wrong notes. This was phenomenal. Not one up or down note. Sour or otherwise ... everything was right on the money and the mark. Completely well done. Can you imagine what could be accomplished with a major studio and equipment?
William here is my question to you. So I took voice lessons in high school and sang in choirs starting in middle school until I graduated high school. I DON’T have s solo quality voice- I blend well with other singers. I don’t have a vibratos and my voice teacher never addressed how to do that with me. Is there something I can do to make that happen?
Thank you
I can’t stop crying so beautiful. We lost our son three years ago and it makes me feel like I’m with him through your singing thank you xx
my middle-aged son is dying and with cov19 I can't see him and I know what you mean about this making you feel close to your son. Thinking of you.
I'm so sorry
We played this at my Dad's funeral yesterday. Thank You, made a difficult day a lot easier. Everyone commented about the song choice and how brilliant it was. So Again Thank you x
You are both a ray of sunshine in our unsettled world. We need more people like you to help keep our faith that everything will be all right. Thank you.
How could someone not like this song, religious or not . They are fantabulous!
omg I can't stop listening to this father and daughter. Maybe because my dad was a great muso too, but all about himself. I feel the pride and love here ❤
Yes, I am a muslim and I love this song very much.
Atheist here. I love them and the song!
I love that it's in English
Elizabeth Lynn why does that matter?
You two are all that is right with the world
Ah, thank you Kathryn!
@@MatandSavanna .....I've listened to this and other of your duets - a few times - and I often have the same reaction - a mixture of tears and laughter....Both, because I am overcome with how beautiful and joyful are , the sounds that you both create.
No idea WHAT the future holds for your daughter...I do hope that it includes music and entertaining others .
At the line, “a world where pain and sorrow will be ended…” the lamp behind the two of you came on. I want to believe that was a sign! Thank you both for sharing God’s word, His gift, and His joy with the rest of us!
The world is falling apart.
I needed that.
Well done.
This is amazing. Not only is her voice beautiful, pure, and fresh, but Dad’s voice is resonant, excellent, and comforting! But the best part, is watching a loving Father spend time with his beloved daughter...🙏💝🕊👫🎶⏳
Cannot thumbs up your comment enough. Perfectly said.
My wife fell in love with this this morning when she found it on Facebook. She must have played it 10 times already. She wishes she could hear this when she goes to bed at night since she has so much trouble sleeping. May God bless you both and keep you safe during these trying times. She also wants this played when she passes on. Brought tears to my eyes. God bless you both and keep up the amazing work you are doing
My daughter and a friend sang this for my husband and I during our wedding. Such lovely memories.
johnnie burns I hear ya. I think 1/2 of the total views are from me. 😂
I agree with listening to it at bedtime. Put it on a loop and let it play me to sleep. Beautiful!!

You two make my day. You have perfect harmony and you'd songs bring tears to this 69year old man
They are bringing tears to this 66 year old man too.
My lovely 96 year old mum just passed away from covid pneumonia & we plan to play your beautiful rendition at her funeral on 24 July. It's just perfect.💞
Beautiful.
And, dad, your expressions while listening to your daughter is PRICELESS.
For real!
I love to see the dad’s appreciation of his daughter’s musicality and beautiful voice. His voice is beautiful too!
Just came back to listen to this again. How appropriate are these words even today when Ukraine needs our prayers more than ever. Thank you again for sharing your voice and giving comfort when needed.
Truth
Everything is beautiful: the father, the daughter and their voices!
I love how the lamp behind them flashed on and stayed on when they sang may the pain and sorrow in the world be ended.🙏
Father daughter goals right there !!!! When she’s old and grey, she has these videos to remember her dad by. Awesome!
Beautiful ☺️
What a great rendition of this sweet song--especially great because a daughter and Father are doing it together, God bless them. Thank you for sharing.
I hope you know how many people you have blessed and comforted with this song. You both have beautiful voices. Absolutely stunning!
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.
I pray we'll find your light
I pray we'll find your light
And hold it in our hearts
And hold it in our hearts
When stars go out each night
When the stars go out each night
Remind us where you are.
Oohhh....
Let this be our prayer
Let this be our prayer
When shadows fill our day
When shadows fill our day
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
To a place where we'll be safe.
[Together:]
A world where pain and
sorrow will be ended
And every heart that's
broken will be mended
And we'll remember we
are all God's children
Reaching out to touch you
Reaching to the sky.
We ask that life be kind
We ask that life be kind
And watch us from above
And watch us from above
We hope each soul will find
We hope each soul will find
Another soul to love
Another soul to love.
Let this be our prayer
Let this be our prayer
Just like every child.
Just like every child.
[Together :]
Needs to find a place
Guide us with your grace.
With your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe
Needs to find a place
Guide us with your grace.
Give us faith so we'll be safe
Justin Vu It was nice, I tried to sing myself. ❤️
Yeshua!
Justin fu Thank you so much for the songtext. Such a GREAT idea
Justin Vu, thank you very much.
Every girl should have a Daddy they can sing with. I LOVE this.
Even if it's not as good as this 💕🎼🎵🎶
Janice Krieger and every boy too tho
I am in tears. Just lovely!!!
I (a guy) sang duets with my mom. Never did with my dad. Wish I had.
It all started with this beautiful prayer song. You two have carried anyone who has heard you sing, through fear and uncertainty.
The young lady's voice is magnificent and the harmony between them gorgeous!
She needs to go on American Idol! What a beautiful voice she has.
Both of them.
Her voice is too lovely to go to American Idol and have it be ruined.
Beautiful... Not just the vocals, but the dad with his daughter. Beautiful!
I had this song played at my husband's funeral it helped me get thru it all---- still has a lot of meaning!!❤
It's been almost exactly 11 years since Susan Boyle took our minds off our troubles . I'm a Christian now and the Lord has done that for me.
Matt and Savanna , in this time of suffering and isolation, you're a gift from above.
Thank you for unselfishly sharing your gift.
John
It is a Dad so proud of his daughter... and a song of Faith.
Dad has a very exquisite voice, fit for the opera. One can also understand every clearly enunciated word. Daughter truly has a natural gift that can still be harnessed, so the audience not only hears the beautiful voice but feels the genuine emotion that should flow through the song, from the first note to the last.
I heard plenty of emotion. Maybe you should get your ears checked.
Nothing wrong with Savannah's at all, but Mat sounds like a Disney prince.
Disney princess material in that young girl! Also bless this father-daughter relationship! The harmonies.....beautiful!
No money in the world.could cover your talent and the words of faith.
Your so right.
Couldn't agree more, what a joy listening to this father and daughter singing together. 💗 I can feel the love.
Yes! Pray that they learn the true Gospel of Jesus Christ!
WHY have we NOT heard the father before now??? They are both extremely talented!!!
Lori Bowen agreed...love both of their voices but dad’s is amazing!!
@@thevandermanyes, Dad has a pure tenor with oodles of personality! Daughter has a mature technique already and her voice is spectacular, seems to range from contralto right up to a high soprano? I wonder if her vocals are intuitive or trained. I have no expertise, but it certainly sounds like she has taken years of voice training. I hope that we see her on the opera stage one day, ie hope she will do more with her instrument than sing Broadway songs on UA-cam.
They started out some time ago singing The Prayer together!
During this pandemic, I go outside every night and sit into driveway looking up at the stars playing music on UA-cam from the 60’s and 70’s. I play this one as well every night. Both of them are better than any version. I don’t know how long they had to practice to hit perfection with the way their voices harmonized, but it could not be better. Both appear to be very strong individually, but they are perfect together!
Just found this too. Like wow. I can only dream of doing something like this with my kids and I can't even sing well lol
This is Don from New Zealand 🇳🇿. You two are bloody great. Keep singing please. 🎶
I love this duet by Andrea Bocelli and Celine Dion, and nothing has ever come close to it but this. Bravo!!!! this was absolutely beautiful!!!
liz weir Whoa, you need to watch the Andrea duet with Heather Hadley live in the Vegas desert, it knocks Celines out the park!
@@nickedmunds1829 Yes - it does.
Josh Groban
@@missey316 Yes Groban and Celine!
Charlotte Church and Josh Groban were better than Bocelli and Dion IMHO. Then, for an amateur duo, I would look no further than Jonathan Antoine and Charlotte Jaconelli; the two who sang this song for their Britain's Got Talent audition in 2012.
Just keep singing. This is the kind of viral that we need in this temporary isolation.
How can dad be so cool? If I ever heard my daughter singing like that, I’d be a crying baby!
100% Andrew 😭
I'm knocking the pops, he may just heard her sing too many times OR just trying keep his cool, yet-anyhow job well done guys!!
Could not agree more!! If this virus has taught me anything, it is how much I love and miss my daughter. Not that I didn't know it already, but living a few miles from her and not having seen her in almost 2 months other than on a video call... well, that gets to a Dad. Go hug your daughter if you can, buddy.
And stay safe!
You both have a true gift God gave you❤️ please continue to bless us❤️
I loved it and I have been singing like this since I was 4 years old! My Sweet Dad, cried too when he first heard me sing! 🙏👼❤️🦋🌷
Perfect harmony!
You two are absolutely inspirational. I used to like Celine/Andrei and Josh Groban, now I like you. Well, all of you. I am 73 and taking care of 82 y/o sis on dialysis and a 84 y/o sis with dementia. This pandemic sometimes overwhelms me. I just heard you two and I think I will be alright with my supporters. I say you are now among them. I will be listening in more.Thank you for your Heavenly voices. God's Blessings be with you both.
And God bless you , Pamela! You are a good sister!
I pray that you and your sisters come out on the other side of this Pamela. God bless you and yours!
Pray for you and your sister:)
God's blessings be with you Pamela 🙏❤️
Pamela Custer I wish you much strength as you caregive your siblings. Many, many hugs to you.
Susan from Indiana. I too care give my 94 yr dad. 😘
When it was sung partly in Italian, we missed these words:
A world where pain and sorrow will be ended,
And every heart that's broken will be mended,
And we'll remember we are all God's children,
Reaching out to touch you
Reaching to the sky.
Thank you for singing there meaningful words in English.
This proves a long standing belief I have there are many people out there who are more talented than many of those ordained as stars
What a beautiful father & daughter duo!
How could people hit thumbs down to this beautiful father daughter duet is beyond me. Mat and Savanna, may God bless you and your family more and more. Stay safe and remain healthy.
Because they don’t know a thing about music
Because it’s not them actually singing
People are so gullible
they are called stupid and envious people! Instead of admiring something really cool, they have to be spiteful about it.
David Dixon you are the one who is clueless. Please prove to us they are not singing. Or are you born to just be a dick.
@@neonsparky It is them singing, its just not a live performance in the Video, the room is too big, there is little to no reverb/echo, no room noise, and just one mic spaced that far away would sound really different. Also, how are they hearing the backing track with no headphones, if they were using speakers it would interfere with the recording from the mic. I'm not doubting their singing ability, or that its not them singing, its just that they are lip sinking over a track that they made earlier, in a acoustically treated room. They are really good singers, and i would love to hear them in a live setting, i think they would be absolutely amazing.
In a world of uncertainties due to Covid-19.....some songs can lift us up into the realm of hope, peace, love and healing......thank you to this father/daughter's superb rendition of this beautiful song.
That daddy should get Father of the year ! Not only for NOT allowing his beautiful daughter at 13 Not to go on Social Media except to sing with her dad but the love they share❤️
Thought she was 15. That's what I heard. Hmm
Beautiful music is Peace, Joy, and Love that God has intended for each
of us. Music is a place of Refuge,
Solitude, yet the music is a friend that reminds us of God’s love.
This young woman has such a wonderful voice. Dad is rocking, too!
Mat, you and your daughter are an inspiration, especially in today's world. While I can't speak for everyone, please know that the two of you are the kind of inspiration we all need.
This Father Daughter rendition is a winner...by the end I was starting to tear up. Amazing rendition....Please don't hide anymore, let the world hear your voices, PLEASE>
When I first saw this I heard Savanna and thought "Well, she's okay, but I won't be able to listen to him," and stood poised to turn it off. As soon as Mat started I sat bolt upright & turned the volume up: "WOW! He's really good!!" Since then I have listened to it countless times, each time feeling God's love. It is glorious. Thank you so much.
Glad you liked it so much!
This made me smile. Thank you so much ❤️
She’s okay? She is amazing!!
If we just ignore the singing and watch Dad, the pride is obvious. The love is clear. Bravo! Add the singing into this and it's just magical. Loved it all. Beautiful voices and and gorgeous duet. Thank you for sharing!
amazing duo!
In times of dark days, it is so uplifting to hear angelic voices singing to lift our hearts to God. This is truly the most beautiful song sung by a father and daughter together. It's refreshing to hear such a beautiful rendition! Thank-you
This ABSOLUTELY needs to be sent to THE VOICE immediately!!!!!!!
that would only dirty this song...That show is for vanity and filth!! this song was song with innocence and sincerity
I AGREE ...tehe first time I found this I knew they should be on for the world to hear.
What a blessing! How beautiful, thank you 🙏
So beautiful and inspiring and such a delight to have a father and daughter singing together. Nothing quite like it. Thanks (from a daddy of four daughters).
The young lady's voice is about as perfect as can be. Her tonal work is perfection - each note dead on and her voice and dynamics are are superb. What a beautiful voice. When her dad joined in - I could see where she got that tonal accuracy from -he was equally in tune, clear and dynamic. Their voices - as do many in the same family - are perfectly blended for each other. I would love to hear more from them.
WOW, this makes your heart complete, we sometimes don't acknowledge God and what prayer does for the soul. Thank you, this is wonderful.
Edward Blankinship Beautiful singing. The one thing that made me feel complete is the Holy Spirit after I repented & was baptised by full emersion. I can now pray to God & know that he hears my every prayer. trftalkradio.com
Wow!! You both sound fantastic. We need more of this, a father and daughter. That young lady is outstanding. Sign em both.
there are so many voices like this hiding in the shadow of the earth...
THANK you Ethan... and NOW'S a good time for them to rise!!!!
The Lord is our refuge and strength and We are safe under His wing. He has given you two a beautiful gift! Thank you for sharing your gift with us. Jesus is our Grace! ❤️🙏
Amen ♥
Amen #100. GOD bless you!
Amen 🙏❤️
Amen
Four months of listening to this beautiful song and I'll never get tired of it. Thank you so much.
Dear God , thank and bless you both, my heart is growing with your love!!
I think that the daddy/daughter relationship is one of the most precious on earth. This has it all--sweetness and strength. I LOVE that the dad is wearing a cap and T-shirt. They are so ordinary and EXTAordinary at the same time. I have watched the over and over with tears every time. What a day brightener in these anxious times--life is beautiful and so is this pair!
And the Tshirt is a family shirt with names!
They should have their own Album - it would go platinum! They are amazing.
You are so nice! Thank you!
I'd buy it!
Think they are planning to make one
This comment aged well.
@@aWildJP I wholeheartedly agree!
He said he had dreams of becoming a singer and he put it on pause until she came to him and this shows that everything that is put on hold it’s because there is a time and place for everything that’s supposed to happen in your life he was meant to wait for this !! If you are struggling in these crazy time just know things will fall into place for you when it is your time !! Don’t give up
❤❤❤❤❤❤
I could have not said it better.
You don’t know how much I needed to hear that🥺
Dear Mat and Savanna,
I first discovered this song and video in April 2020, the morning I received news that my closest friend of 50 years had died from Covid at the age of 57. It brought me tremendous comfort to listen to your wonderful voices singing this lovely song or indeed prayer. Thank you so much. All if you songs are wonderful but this remains my favorite. Continued success and God Bless. Doug
