Bred Dina Vida Vingar:
Förlåt mig alla synderoch två mig i ditt blod.
Giv mig ett heligt sinne,
en vilja ny och god.
Tag i din vård och hägnad
oss alla, stora, små,
och låt i frid oss åter
till nattens vila gå.
English translation:
Spread Your Wide Wings-
Forgive all my sinsand wash me in Your blood!
Give me a holy mind,
and a new will that is good!
Take us all under Your care and protection,
the little ones as well as the grown
and let us all go to our night's rest
in peace!
This is a breathtaking perfomance by the Norwegian soprano Sissel. Here she is singing a very old Swedish folktune. She was at this time 22 years old and the voice was extremely powerful.

Such a beautiful song and amazing singer. It brought a smile. :)
Sissel has a beautiful voice. Just listen to her sing O Helga Natt (O Holy Night in Swedish). It is on Youtube.
