Stunning ‘Amazing Grace’ Performance at The Garden Tomb
A group of musicians performed a dearly beloved hymn in three different languages at a special location in the Middle East.
Music has the unique ability to bring people from diverse backgrounds together and cause strong emotional reactions. There are some songs even the most stoic of people can’t help but shed a tear or two or three when played.
One song that can do just that is “Amazing Grace.” Likely, it’s the tune that immediately comes to mind whenever the word “hymn” is uttered. The song’s music and opening lyrics are instantly recognizable. One or two words into the song, and most will know what song is being performed.
In a video posted to YouTube, a group of musicians performed the iconic song. But instead of the normal, average, run-of-the-mill singing of “Amazing Grace, the vocalists perform the tune in three different languages. In the video, the lyrics are sung in English, Hebrew, and Arabic.
“Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I’m found”
What a stunning and awe-inspiring rendition of the beautiful song that is performed and recognized all over the world.
The singers also performed the song in a unique location: the Garden Tomb in Jerusalem.
The organization One for Israel put together the video. The group’s aim, as described in their channel’s About section, is “to compellingly share the Gospel of Yeshua the Messiah (Jesus Christ) with Israeli Jews and Arabs in the Hebrew language.”
Thank the Lord for His grace, for it is truly amazing! Without His grace and love, none of us would have a chance at redemption. Everyone would be lost and condemned, but God showed mercy on us.
Ephesians 2:8-9 “For by grace are you saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast.”
