You Raise Me Up is a beloved song that has been sung by thousands of people. Over 100 artists have recorded the song, from Josh Groban to Westlife to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir.
It’s a very popular song in churches and it has even been performed at the Super Bowl. In some ways, the song has become so common that a new version doesn’t hold all that much magic anymore. That is, most new versions don’t.
When 5-year-old Celine Tam sung the song on a Chinese television talent program, the song came alive again.Clad in a pink dress, with hair in braids, and with a little bit of glittery eye shadow, the little songstress does not look like she could pack that powerful of a voice.
When she opens her mouth, though, it’s clear that she has the voice of an angel. Her rendition of the powerful ballad is guaranteed to give you chills.
It’s clear that the audience during her performance is entirely caught up the powerful song, with some in the crowd even tearing up.Celine sings, “you raise me up to more than I can be” and it’s clear that the words apply to her family.
Her parents clearly support and love the little singer. Her father, in particular, is her primary singing coach and is seen conducting her in this stunning performance.
