It's very precious to me, being a Swede, that she is first singing in Swedish! This song was originally written in Swedish by pastor Carl Boberg in the small town where I grew up!

my mother loved Sissel and this wonderful song....she died when she 96 years old and almost every day she would sing this song with a very weak voice but a very strong soul....we sang this song in her funeral....hearing this song brings all these memories back and a lot of tears too

Wonderful to hear this great hymn sung in its native tongue, Swedish.

My grandfather's parents were born in Sweden. He loved this hymn.

What a great honor for all of Norway that they invited our Sissel to sing with them again.

Wheb Notre Dame in Paris was in flames we began to see all we had lost when we abandoned the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

"How great thou art" is a version of this, which is the Swedish original with words by Swedish poet and reverend Carl Boberg. Only many years later and after many translations into other languages, did the English one come to us as we know it today.

The best version ever

A young lady sang this song at my missionary farewell when I was leaving for a mission in Sweden. I did not know that the song was written by a Swedish composer. I am glad that she sang the first verse in Swedish. Då brister själen ut i lovsångsljud: O store Gud! O store Gud!

Saw this concert in person, hard to believe it was live and not a recording. Truly one of the best Pioneer concerts of all time.

What a voice 👍👍 what a song..It originated in Sweden.... Wei gross bist Du... Greetings from India

Magnificent is an extremely small word for her performance

Wonderful song, that started in Mönsterås 1885, east coast of Sweden, an went from there around the world... Karl Boberg smile in the heaven One of my personal favorite is George Beverly Shea at a great Billy Graham 1957.

A great performance from "Knight 1. class of the St Olavs Order" lady Sissel Kyrkjebø

An angel

No one can sign this song like her. Thank you

I was in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, 1985 for my first real Christmas. This song brought a new light into my blood, I felt a strange warm hitting my feet, and flow up. That's my first Christmas.

I think God's angels are singing with you.... beautiful 🕎

Tears in any language , no matter your faith or belief .

Crystal clear and beautiful voice. Sissel is an awesome singer. I love her voice more than anything else. Greatings to You Sissel from Finnish Lapland....We love You ❤❤❤❤❤ The best crossover soprano in whole World.❤❤ This song means a lot to me when times are hard and no light in sight. I pray when I listen Sissel singing this song. ❤❤

Finnish Lapland? Nope, she is from Bergen on the western coast of Norway. By the way, did you know that Sissel was featured on seven of the albums tracks and is often referred to as 'the voice of Titanic. ' Sissel has performed on several occasions with The Tabernacle Choir.

I was grateful to see the camera pan over the orchestra members. The lovely voice of Ms Sissel, who would not be moved? But didn't the musicians warm your heart and edify your spirit as they did mine?

Jesus you are the most beautiful living ever I have seen your eyes Soo innocent so beautiful Soo deep whit love no one can compare your inner beauty I have seen you and love you above everything at erth

Have you ever had an angel sing for you---Sissel is that angel

The original Swedish (and indeed some other translations of this song) are so much more powerful than this popular translation... the chorus is more like "And then my soul bursts forth in sound of praise - O Great God!"... what a powerful thing to sing!

I have been a fan of hers since she was a teenager. Never heard anything more beautiful than what she produces and to have the Mormon Tabernacle Choir back. Her up is perfection. Thank you, Sissel

To think I almost lived my life and just heard this voice now. Thankfully her singing career is largely on KZread.

Sissel is an angel.

Dear Sissel , You are really magnificient Soprano singer, thanks for your beauties and nice voice and your artism. All the best for Norway. Best greetings to You and all the Norvegians from Katowice Upper Silesia Poland Europe.

Yes,true. But there's more to it with Sissel. Her ability to put a song over is way better than average, and no doubt it is so because she is a sincere singer and in the case of faith songs, she is a believer. It gives her an advantage over other great singers.

Breath taking....How great he is...I love you Jesus
