This is absolutely stunning!!!

Wonderful! That's the third set of lyrics I've heard. It is a universally loved song. Another version has a priest singing the wedding vows to a couple at the alter. All versions are very moving.

A 10-year-old girl with autism who was too shy to speak in class a year ago has taken the internet by storm with her powerful rendition of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah.”
The video of Kaylee Rodgers, who attends the Killard House School in Donaghadee, Northern Ireland, has amassed millions of views on social media after it was posted on YouTube Dec. 19.



Kev, that was an awesome find. This is a little backstory to the video above.

I like when she hits the higher notes. Really puts her heart into it.

"I've heard about this baby boy who's come to earth to bring us joy, and I just want to sing this song to you. It goes like this, the fourth, the fifth, the minor fall, the major lift. With every breath, I'm singing 'Hallelujah. Hallelujah...'

A couple came to Bethlehem. Expecting child, they searched the inn to find a place, for You were coming soon. There was no room for them to stay, so in a manger filled with hay, God's only Son was born, 'Oh Hallelujah. Hallelujah...'

The shepherds left their flocks by night to see this baby wrapped in light. A host of angels led them all to You. It was just as the angels said. You'll find Him in a manger bed, Immanuel and Savior, 'Hallelujah. Hallelujah...'

A star shown bright up in the East. To Bethlehem, the wise men three came many miles and journeyed long for You. And to the place at which You were, their frankincense and gold and myrrh, they gave to You and cried out 'Hallelujah. Hallelujah...'

I know You came to rescue me. This baby boy would grow to be a man and one day die for me and you. My sins would drive the nails in You. That rugged cross was my cross, too. Still every breath you drew was 'Hallelujah. Hallelujah...'"
