I was a child when this song came out in the nativity movie. I remember it feeling so powerful even then. Now in my twenties I come back to it every Christmas and think back to those days, and how wonderful they were. I had absolutely no clue then but those years were the simplest, happiest, care free years of my life. I can’t go back of course, but for a brief moment or so this song takes me back to my old primary school assembly hall, with all my old friends. Sometimes when I listen to this song I think that somewhere in time and space we might all still be there, smiling, singing, basking in our innocence. Some of those children are now parents, some have been to prison, some have even passed. So much has changed and yet when I listen to this song, it’s like nothing ever did.
Love it. My 8 year old sang it at his Xmas concert.xxx 2 days ago,just listened to it again,crying. Merry Christmas 🤶 to everyone. Ya only get 1 chance In life,so let's live it.xxxx
I loved Hayley Westenra particularly as a 15 year old, and her as part of Celtic Women. Am recently a new primary school teacher, watched Nativity! for the first time this year and loved the film! So relatable children wise etc, catchy and I swore this rolling credits was Hayley Westenras voice.. This confirms it! :)
Sometimes life is not all it can be and here we are wondering just how far this world can lead and here we are then from the darkness shines a bright burning star and who we are is changing within our hearts one night one moment and everything’s changed one night one moment and everything’s changed one night one moment tonight is the pure and so special you’ll never feel lonely agaiiiinnn cause we are all standing together as friends ooooo oooo ooo and everything’s changing forever one night one moment
