This timeless Christmas classic was penned by The Reverend Father Joseph Moore,an Austrian priest from Melk,Austria. The tune was composed by Dr. Franz Gruber the night it was written on a six string guitar. The church’s pipe organ was in need of repair and was unplayable at the time. Seven weeks later following repairs to the organ,Dr. Gruber played this soothing and beautiful melody on the now fully playable organ. Father Moore wept openly at its simplicity and beauty. It has become a Christmas staple around the world.

For many this will be a very emotional Christmas, we've all lost loved ones and its difficult nor having them here, all we can do is thank God that we're still here
Every year at Christmas and at the end of the year, whenever I listen to this music, I am deeply impressed whether it is Christian or not. It has already become a masterpiece for everyone on earth.
It was a quiet night and the shepherds were tending their flocks. Then the angelic chorus began to sing Glory to God in the highest. A Savior has been born who will rescue humanity from their sin. The Blessed one who would die on the cross for every person. Oh what a great Savior He is! Oh come let us adore Him, Christ Jesus our Lord! Praise Him and worship our blessed Redeemer!
I don’t care if this is a “Christmas song” I listen to this year round and it always brings a tear to my eye, missing the times we would all gather around the tree and genuinely have a good time. I miss that but this song will always remind me of it, thank Andre for this. ❤
I can't help but be emotional. Let's all hope and pray that next year's Christmas will be much better and we can celebrate again like old and normal times.
I go as i feel am I not one with God? Do you understand the mind of the creator? Do you understand my sins? Can you see when my heart elevates to GOD can you see when he receives my sacrifice? Do understand the value he gives my tears?
"Thus says The Lord: Most assuredly, I say to you, any and all rituals which are rooted in paganism are an abomination in the eyes of God! And all who place My name upon them, or do them by permission in My name, have surely taken the name of The Lord in vain! I know many say they celebrate this holiday in loving memory of My earthly birth, yet on this day I did not come into the world by way of water and blood. For that day and hour remains unknown to you, nor do you understand. For you cast off knowledge, and refuse to honor the appointed times which The Father commanded you to keep holy and remember.[1] Thus My people are indeed destroyed for lack of knowledge, as it is written.[2] How long shall you mar My image before the people?! How long shall My name be blasphemed Because of you, O churches of men?!... How long shall you commit adultery with the Harlot and revel in the idolatries of the pagan?! How long shall you remain married to this world And all its fornications against God?!... Again I tell you, ALL religions, religious rituals And celebrations, rooted deeply in paganism, Are an abomination in the eyes of The Most High God! Well did My servant Sha’ul (also known as Paul) prophesy of you, saying: In the latter days some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their consciences seared as with a hot iron.[3] And well did he prophesy of this generation, saying: Men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying the power thereof[4]. Therefore, woe to all who celebrate this detestable holiday of men! Woe, I say to you! And three times woe, to all who do so in MY name! Hypocrites! Workers of idolatry! You are a perverse people who do always take the name of The Lord in vain! Yet I hear you saying, “But we only seek to honor You, Lord, in any and all ways.” Yet I ask you, how can we be one if your heart belongs to another?[5] And how does reveling in those things I hate honor Me? I tell you the truth, all who love this world more than Me are not worthy of Me! And all who honor the ways of the harlot dishonor Me and shall share in her judgment! And ALL, who revel in the ways of the pagan, have cast their lot with satan! Or have you never read these Scriptures: You can not drink the cup of The Lord and the cup of demons; you can not partake of The Lord’s table and of the table of demons?![6] Indeed, what do all these things have to do with Me? Why do you decorate the tree? Is it not beautiful as it is? And why do you decorate your house? A household, which seeks to honor Me, has no need of worldly decorations. For in humility, set apart, shall you shine forth. And why do you give worldly gifts in My name? Am I not The Gift, He who ascended on high, He who led captivity captive and gave gifts to men?[7] Therefore receive of Me, of all I offer, and be separate. For in following My ways do you give gifts to Me and to each other, even to all those around you, for the gifts I bring endure forever. Therefore, again I ask you, what matter these things of the world and men, which shall soon pass away? Yet you say, “All these things are a metaphor and a testament to You, Lord.” Yet I tell you, anything which comes from sin is sin; do not do it! Tear down all these whitewashed walls of abomination, and do only as The Word of God instructs! For the season of giving is each and every day, and the season of love is every day, every hour, every minute, every moment of your life lived in Me. So then, share My gifts and withhold not; lift up the poor in spirit and feed the hungry, help the needy and comfort the sick, doing so in My name. Yet do not do as the pagans do, for this is sin. Be completely separate and shun these perverse holidays of men; stop breaking My Commandments! You wish to celebrate My name and My earthly birth, do so; yea, bring glory to My name by your obedience, set apart. You wish to enjoy festivals with your family, do so; I have given you seven.[8] And in these seven is wisdom and understanding, the very mind of God, revelation beyond words, the will of God made manifest. Yet no more do as the pagans and false teachers would have you do. Cast off this holiday; throw away your tree and lights, rid your house of all decorations, turn away from these filthy traditions. Honor Me as I truly am, obey the Scriptures, and turn away from the commandments of men.[9] Know this: The Salvation Day of Men is four-fold... It was ordained before the foundation of the world, Fulfilled at My birth, finished at My death on the cross, And solidified eternally upon My resurrection... I AM THE LORD." [1]answersonlygodcangive.com/Regarding_The_Holy_Days_of_God [2]Hosea 4:6 [3]1 Timothy 4:1-2 [4]2 Timothy 3:2-5 [6]1 Corinthians 10:21 [7]Ephesians 4:8 [9]Matthew 15:9, Mark 7:7, Titus 1:14 ~ "Thus says The Lord: My children, keep The Passover. Keep it according to the New Covenant, in faith and love, and remember. Yet you who call of yourselves Christian do always dishonor Me. Behold, you pollute the glory of My sacrifice with filthy traditions and desecrate My resurrection with pagan practices, forsaking those things which you were to keep holy and remember, nor will you incline the ear. Churches of men, know you not that in these Seven (the Holy Days) is wisdom and understanding, the very mind of God?! Yet you choose vanities on top of vanities, embracing corrupt doctrine and pagan-laced tradition, placing your stamp of approval on them. For you are a most perverse and adulterous generation. Churches of men, I am not of this world, yet you are of this world. Thus only those who obey My voice trust in Me, and only those who embrace Me as I truly am are set apart. For I live in them and they follow Me. You claim you trust in Me and that I live in you, yet not one of you obeys My voice; indeed, you ignore My example and refuse to walk in My ways. For if I truly lived in you, then you would do as I did. Beloved, follow Me! Keep the Passover, honor the Holy Days, and remember the Sabbath. Only then will you begin to see, only then will you understand. For the Holy Days are revelation, every Sabbath a blessing, a sign between Me and you that you may know I am The Lord who sanctifies you. And behold, four are fulfilled: Salvation assured, sin and death overcome, the Spirit given... Three are coming quickly: Sin destroyed, evil bound, My seat taken, Judgment... A new day, even one thousand years... Then a short season, consummation... An everlasting day in The Lord!... Amen, and amen." ~ "Therefore, again I call you to kiss The Son And bow before your King!... For He alone is your salvation, He alone is your only escape!... He is The Light, The Only Way, The Only Truth!... There is no life apart from Him; Apart from Him is only darkness and death, The wide path which leads to destruction... YAHUSHUA-YAHUWAH Is His name, The Mashiach!... The Bearer of your cross, The Lover of your soul, The Risen One, The Mighty One of Jacob... Immanu El!"

There is no more beautiful a Christmas hymn than Silent Night. I am often moved to tears when I hear this simple melody performed with reverence and from the heart as it is in this moving rendition by Andre Rieu and company. This man, this talented musician, is not just playing Silent Night. The look on his face is that of a man offering his effort as a prayer to God Almighty as he pours his heart into the music. God Bless us every one. Merry Christmas to all.
I’m a year onto your msg richard, and it still rings as true today as it was when u msgd last year, he’s playing it from his soul and it’s just beautiful. Happy xmas fella 👌🏽
This will be the first Christmas without my beloved cast member who passed away in 2022 rest in peace this Christmas season we keep the memories of all our loved ones who have gone before us may they rest in peace 🪦.
The look on the maestro's face as he plays the most beautiful Christmas carol of all tells me he believes in what Christmas is truly about. He plays as if he is offering the music as a prayer to God Almighty. Silent Night moves me to tears, especially such a beautiful version as this. God Bless Andre Rieu and company.
The true meaning of Christmas is the birth of our savior JESUS CHRIST AND CELEBRATING WITH OUR FAMILY👨👩👦 THAT'S THE TRUE MEANING OF CHRISTMAS🎄🎄🎄🎄🎅🤶🤶 🙏🙏🙏🙏 12/05/2020 10:51 am
So beautifully played. I feel I am in a different world. So sweet, serene that I forget everything around me. This is the most beautifull song that I have ever known since my childhood and still love to sing and listen to it. It gives a special feeling because Jesus Christ was born into this world to save mankind.
I wish a merry Christmas to everybody seeing this comment. May we never forget what is the true meaning of this date, celebrate the birth of our Lord savior Jesus. May the Lord's blessings visit you and your family this Christmas. I wish a Christmas full of joy, family, smiles, because these little things are what is really important in life.
Everyone misses their beloved parents at. Xmas time. So those of you who still have them treasure and love them…. Silent night with its simplicity and homeliness is an absolute crippler for remembering with love and tears. And everyone knows it…😢😢❤
It's gonna be a dark Holiday for everyone this year. just remember this won't be forever, good times will come again, we must be strong and continue. never lose hope for that is all we can do when things are at their lowest
I just love this divine hymn "Silent Night." Thank you so much Andre Rieu and Universal Music Domestic Pop for making this vid possible for all the world to enjoy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Robert S.J. Hu Dec. 25, 2018 .
Soon the Holy Christmas day is coming, I wish you good health, happiness and light in your soul to enjoy the carols and the wonderful songs of ANDRE RIEU and his wonderful orchestra!!! ♥️🎻♥️ 👋👋👋🎄🎄🎄 🌏 💖💖💖 🌄
Our beloved Mother, Rita Sarah (Mohr) Hepler, always loved to watch/ listen to Maestro Rieu on PBS. In her 90’s, while I was caring for her, we would watch together. She was still completely lucid and absolutely loved the masterful performances. Mom was a Mohr. We always believed somehow a distant relative of Father Joseph Mohr, who wrote Silent Night. Her Birthday just preceded Christmas every year. Given all this, CHRISTmas and Silent Night were always incredibly special to our family. Mom has gone off now to be with Fr. Joseph and all our Mohr ancestors in Heaven, but hearing this makes me feel so close to her again. Sleep in Heavenly Peace...
Andre isn't playing the violin he is the violin mesmerizing absolutely mesmerizing! there is no word to describe this incredible man that is the one the only Andre Rieu!

I get depressed when I listen to this today. A lot of things happened to me this year. But god shall wipe the tears from our eyes. And there will be no more death or any more pain..
Beautiful. Thank you Jesus for all your graces and blessings. I want to Thank you especially for the gift of music you have given to André .Praise to God our Father, Jesus our Saviour, Holy Spirit our guide.🙏💐💝
All I can say is, God bless wonderful musicians like this and God bless RU-vid for allowing us to watch all of these things because without it we would never see or hear a fraction of the stuff in which we do here!!
Yes it's so wonderful to be able to dip into RU-vid and find practically any song within seconds.I've found so many great songs I never knew about thanks to the kind people who upload them .Bless you all.
God bless?...no, human bless the talented musicians and intelligent people who created the internet and u tube, for without them we would hear and see NONE OF IT....Zero, nada, wala
Silent Night is my favorite Christmas Carol and it certainly is the one that moves me the most and sums up Christmas best. As usual, Andre and his orchestra have done a superb job of performing the carol. He and his orchestra do the same for every other piece of music they play and one day before too long I hope to go to Maastricht to see Andre Preu and his orchestra play - I know it will be such an enjoyable and pleasurable experience to see music so beautifully performed.
I listen this music so many times not only for the Christmas time and it's make me flow the river inside my eyes and thank you so much n God bless you!!!
Outstanding! The musical masterpiece of the obscure Franz Xaver Gruber which first debuted on December 24, 1818, performed here in a lavish, beautiful church setting.
I teared up a little watching this. Its sad how as we grow and move on with our lives we forget where it started from and the best things about life in the first place. It's such a beautiful, daunting, melancholic, nostalgic feeling watching and listening to this. Thia reminds me of Christmas during my childhood. Of colder weather, xmas light, jubilance, purchasing gifts, going out in the town, holding my parents hands, being dazzled by the xmas lights, hearing all the xmas carols, being neighborly and kind, and everything good about Christmas. We just dont have holidays like this anymore. Somewhere along it has lost it way, or maybe we have. In any case, thank you for this, Mr. Rieu. It was very much needed.
@@michaelkrawiec6284 I'm trying to do so everyday actually. To put back into the world the blessings it gave me. But yea, that old-fashioned xmas is priceless.
When we were driving in the car I came across this and after about 5 seconds from pressing play I burst in tears with strong Christmas feeling. It is my favourite Silent night
Ah... I love the period when I don't have to feel guilty to listen to the first Christmas music for this year... Bit early perhaps, but I'm not the first one, reading the previous reactions.... Truly a masterpiece...
God knows how , everytime i listen to this song , tears start rolling down my eyes. Music can connect to you, without words. And i am not a christian. But , Amen 🙏
GOD is drawing you towards HIM, Arnab! Now we are living in the end times, the rapture and the 7year Tribulation are right around the corner and you should thankfully accept JESUS CHRIST'S ultimate sin sacrifice on the cross and HIS resurrection on the 3rd day!!! Please read biblical end times prophecy, watch Dr. Ron Rhodes video on end times chronology. Blessings to you and your loved ones!
This song always makes me cry. I know it's about the Lord Jesus, but I can't help thinking of my 15 month old granddaughter while holding her little hand as she died. It's a beautiful hurt...
It's 13th August ,2020 but when we listen to this it's a reminder of a season of Thanksgiving, of family, of a little tiny baby who will do great things for us all...
Having sung this song in Sweden 🇸🇪: Germany & St. Paul's in London- I always cry when not on stage. This rendition is beautifully performed by Maestro Andre Rieu & his Orchestra...continuously bringing DEVINE HEALING 2 all people on on our Planet. Countess Smirnoff Lusie
This Christmas will sadly bring back memories of all our family members who have died this year either from cancer or just passed of old age we still love them cherish them and spend time before they go to heaven and we get to see them again .😊
Wow! This makes for a powerful emotional experience! "Silent Night" performed by violin and choir in a most beautifully decorated setting. To me, "Silent Night" is one of the most beautiful musical melodies ever created.
Once again we approach Christmas,man and instrument in perfect harmony,let us remember those we have lost this past year and every year,may Your God ,Your Believe ,give you comfort and a early Christmas blessing from me.
On Christmas Eve, 1914 in West France, WWI was still raging on, British and German soldiers locked in trench warfare, firing artillery and gunfire, but upon that night, both sides cease fire and the silence was broken by a man singing in the German trench. the rest of the German soldiers sung with him and the British join in. That song was Silent night. sung in both English and German in union. The following morning on Christmas day, they were preparing to attack each other again but General Fritz of the German forces emerged from the trench waving his arms, soon the soldiers followed with him. and soon British forces emerged from the trenches and meet their enemies in the middle of no man's land. They shook hands, greeting each other, giving each other food, alcohol, cigarettes and they played Soccer/football with germans winning. They all hung out and talked, cutting up and console each other like brothers. Unfortunately it didn't last.. later that night, the fighting resumed, some of those soldiers who met each other, ended up killing each other.
This was my late father's favorite Christmas song. The song silent night was originally a poem written after a minister went for a walk and saw a baby sleeping peacefully in its mother's arms. I maybe a father not a mother but I remember holding my two daughters as newborns sleeping in my arms thinking this is the most beautiful and pure thing I've ever seen
Outstanding and excellent performance by andre and his musicians deserve a lot of credit play so well and beautifully stay warm and dry out there go enjoy the holiday's hope to see you next year best wishes for a safe happy new year's also love and appreciate you guys ! Joe
My dearest father, my dearest aunt... I listen to such beauty, and I've enjoyed times of listening to this with you. Thankyou for everything. I miss you more than I have words. When my other aunt passes, please look after her.
❤❤❤❤Puoi comprarlo con i soldi - Letto, ma non dormire! - Orologio, ma non l'ora! - Un libro, ma non un cervello! - Lussuria, ma non amore! - Medicina, ma non salute! - Croce, ma non fede! - Un posto nel cimitero, ma non nel regno... ❤️❤❤❤❤
The Silent Night is my favorite Xmas song since I was little girl ,it gives me emotional touched and it lifted my spirit up like I'm in Heaven singing with the Angels. I love love love it.Praise the Lord, and to God be the Glory. Merry Christmas to everybody who is watching and listening 🎶God bless u all.
I remember when my grandfather went to some festival which featured André, and he offered to take me but i refused, I was 10...now, as i'm about to turn 18, I feel ashamed of myself, because I'll most likely not have such an easy opportunity to witness the genius that this man is
