You may never read this comment, but I want you to know that you have touched the lives of millions of people with your voice. You have blessed my life and I am so grateful for finding you as I did many years ago. Your music has helped to heal me in times when I so desperately needed it. Thank you, Sissel. Please keep being the angel that you are.
I wonder too does she know her effect? I met her briefly recently and tried to say something about that but was so tongue tied in the power of her presence I don't think I managed to.
I told my Grandson that I bet this is what Heaven sounds like. I am so touched by this song that I tear up when I listen to it. Praise the Lord for this angelic voice❣️
It was such an honor to sing this with you, dear Sissel! You’re incredible and have such a lovely personality too. Thank you for blessing us all with your talents and love. We love you!
How is it possible to not weep with peace and joy when hearing this song? 8/10 times i can't keep the tears back. What a gift from God she is! What an angel on earth!
Wow - It's June 26th 2020, and I can't think of anything the world needs more right now, especially so in the US, than to slow down and know that God is over all, and that we are his children - brothers and sisters - all of us. What a beautiful message and outstanding music. Thank you.
We who were at the concert will not soon forget this magical moment. At this time of world-wide "shutdown" due to COVID-19...we fondly remember Sissel's appearance in Salt Lake City a year ago. She is much loved in this neck of the woods....
I will NEVER forget when i first heard this last summer! I struggle with severe depression, anxiety and chronic suicidality. The last few weeks before the pioneer day concert, i desperately wanted to be done with my life and I couldn't stop thinking about it. I will never forget how frozen i was to the floor when i first saw this sitting from the second row. I literally saw myself as the only one in the room with Mack telling the choir, "Make this really strong for Will everyone! He has really been in the dark and he needs us so desperately right now!"
@@kathleensmith8969 Im stikll struggling on occasion but the strength I've gotten from my experiences with this and the choir have gotten stronger and stronger, little by little helping me remember more that i matter in life. Hopefully that will become a rock solid testimony sometime.
@@Thrillmaster100 good to hear, though I know it’s still challenging. But one step at a time, and you’re pointed in the right direction. Make sure you also keep close around you your tribe, the ones who love and support you.❤️
Thanks for sharing, I love this song also, May God Bless you that you might realize your great worth, you can helped many others who struggle with this same issue.
"Perfect !"...it's the only word to describe this lady. She bring's nothing but peace, enjoyment to people who listen & watch her perform. Her voice is as many have said angelic. Her control is fantastic & puts warmth, atmosphere into everything she sings. The music reminds me of the late John Barry another favourite of mine.
This song and how it is sung and played, melts me every time, and I end up ready to be re-moulded by the Heavenly potter to face the day in Gods strength instead of my own weakness. Bless you all out there. I Love You.
In returning and rest shall ye be saved, in quietness and confidence shall be your strength. This has touched my spirit so deeply, I am just speechless. So divinely beautiful, calming, restful and anointed. I needed to hear this today. Thank you God.
Without fail she brings tears to my eyes. I’m 73, have always loved music, and have heard much that has affected me positively BUT! That was before Sissel! Since hearing this lady’s magnificent voice the first time and watching her matchless presentation, it is hard to find what I want to hear from anyone else!
My heart is so touched by her song. I have never heard such love in a song by our God. One can feel Him standing near and putting His hand upon my shoulder in giving me His peace. Oh such love, such wonderful love!!
I have been listening to Sissel for less than a week and at 52 cannot believe I have not heard of her before, and yes I have been to Norway ! Each time I have listened I have broken down in tears by its beauty like an angel giving you unconditional love direct from God. Thank you so much dear sweet lady x
On my mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-days Saints, my companion and I listened to your Christmas CD with the Tab Choir repeatedly, and it gave us much needed peace then, and re-listening to it still gives me much needed peace now. Thank you.
For those who don't know... The song was written and composed by Chuck Girrard on his debut solo album. Please listen to the original song by Chuck Girrard, you will be blessed. Sissel's version is just as beautiful and powerful as the original. Both versions are well worth anyone's time to be taken into the presence of our God and they both do that...
Always get goosebumps when I listen to this song over and over again ... This song is indescribably beautiful and peaceful. God bless you, Sissel ... Much love from Africa. 💯😍🎵👏🏽
Been waiting for this release and it is even more amazing than I expected. If there is an award for best music video this should win going away. Sissel is truly a sensational performer.
When this song begins, I can hear and feel my breathing slow down, and I am calm. I remember the first time I heard this listening to the Pioneer Day concert - it was breathtaking and the audience just kept applauding.
she was given that offer... a multimillion dollar contract but Sissel walked away because though she has only ever wanted to be a singer (said in her interviews) friends & family are at least as important to her.
So many times I come back to song for peace .. along with Be Still my Soul .. Thank U so dear divine soul for presenting this beautiful heavenly song.. May God ever prompt U to bless us with more of these spiritual sided songs.. I have always been thankful that U have a spiritual side.. Strive to put out a CD that has nothing but spiritual side... Thousands will desire to have it in their lives..
Very very slow but very very tranquil and beautiful as well! This song draws your attention from the very first second and oh my the vocals are the main highlight of this song! I really like this rendition of Slow Down, and the orchestra does give the song another depth of colour! Upon first listen, I nearly cried, listening to such a touching song! Bravo and very special no. 1 for me!
Sissel, Since i first heard this last July in Salt Lake City it has become a very favorite among favorites. I hope when this pandemicis over to meet you again.
Hello, dear Sissel.....here in the mid west of America, June 25, 2020.about 10:30 in the evening, it was announced you’d be singing this beautiful song. Even though I was watching a movie, I cast it aside to listen. I wish I hadn’t because now I have tears. It’s beautiful, Sissel! The presentation really touches my heart as it will all those that stop and listen. You know there were many tears when you sang it with the Mormon Tabernacle choir! They will all find this and enjoy as much as I. I think it will help me relax and save my soul. I really needed to take the time and just listen over and over! Thank you, always! 💜
After listening this for the first time. I dreamt a happy dream of my father who passed away. Previous dreams of him had been not so nice, more nightmares. Powerful stuff
I love this song, with all the turmoil and stress around my life right now this beautiful song calms me. The background video adds to peacefulness that so many of us need.
The expression and feelings put into each performance is superb. I only discovered Sissel recently and wow am I a fan now. I have a friend here in Australia ( an excellent artist/painter ) who was born in Bergen, Norway too. Have added the reflection album series to my collection. Love from the other side of the world ....down under in Australia.
Bis vor kurzem war ich nur begeistert von den tollen Wintersportlern dieses kleinen Landes Norwegen und der Seele der Menschen. Mit Sissel und ihrer Ausstrahlung liebe Ich Norwegen um so mehrThanks. Norway 12 Points.
Lyric In the midst of my confusion In the time of desperate need When I am thinking not too clearly A gentle voice does intercede Slow down, slow down, be still Be still and wait, on the Spirit of the Lord Slow down and hear His voice And know that He is God In the time of tribulation When I'm feeling so unsure When things are pressing in about me Comes a gentle voice so still, so pure Slow down, slow down, be still, my child Be still and wait, on the Spirit of the Lord Slow down and hear His voice And know that He is God And know that He is God
Sissel, you might not remember, but about 25 year ago, you and I enjoyed midsummer eve by mutual friends on Strandvejen, Rungsted. You sat accros the table, young, relaxed and humble. The bondfire was ignited on the beach and we all sang "Midsommervisen". My wife and I stood next to a friend, singer from the Royal Opera. To your singing she commented "you can hear she is not schooled". My wife an I looked at each other and we have since then listened to you, thinking: Thanks god, you are not schooled in an Opera quire............ With Love, Henning
I am glad some conservatoire didn't get it's hands on her and turn her into another Garanca or Netrebko. Brilliant though they are, we've got them already and there is room for Sissel and the humanity that comes via her voice and performance. She likes singing to the masses of folk who will never darken the door of Royal Opera. And unlike so many female pop singers, she has a quality voice that makes one listen. There are others too like Westenra & Jenkins & Brightman. But each listener can choose accordingly as their heart responds. By the by: I am convinced she's been voice-coached (apart from singing in a good choir as a youngster). Somewhere around her early 20s her voice made a giant leap in ability. That didn't happen by accident or nature. As for her performing skill, that may be from within and God given.
Lyrics: In the midst of my confusion In the time of desperate need When I am thinking not too clearly A gentle voice does intercede . Slow down, slow down, be still Be still and wait, on the Spirit of the Lord Slow down and hear His voice And know that He is God . In the time of tribulation When I'm feeling so unsure When things are pressing in about me Comes a gentle voice so still, so pure . Slow down, slow down, be still, my child Be still and wait, on the Spirit of the Lord Slow down and hear His voice And know that He is God And know that He is God
Thanks you so much for this insane beautiful song! It is so needed in this noisy and busy world! Bring ease to my mind, soul, spirit and emotions! Thank you!!!!!!
I watched dozens of videos of other guest preformers, yours by far and beyond was the most passionate and spiritual of all. You shared your deepest soul in this music!
