Pie Jesu

Anyone who knows me well, knows that my newest favorite female vocalist is a young lady from New Zealand by the name of Hayley Westenra. Her first performance that I became acquainted with was of a piece by Andrew Lloyd Webber called Pie Jesu. . .which translated means Jesus, Our Peace. She was 16 years old when she performed this the first time. (by the way, it is pronounced Pee A Hey Su)

I can't watch this video without getting bit teary eyed.

I hope that as you watch and listen to her performance of it, your life will be blessed, you will have a smile on your face, a tear in your eye, and reminder of who is the true and only hope for Peace that mankind has. Both at this Christmas season, and at any other time of the year.
