    Internationally acclaimed Norwegian-born singer, Sissel, performs "Like an Angel Passing through My Room" by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus, and arranged by Kjetil Bjerkestrand. This performance came during the 2019 Pioneer Day Concert with The Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra at Temple Square.
    Lyrics:
    Long awaited darkness falls
    Casting shadows on the walls
    In the twilight hour I am alone
    Sitting near the fireplace
    Dying embers warm my face
    In this peaceful solitude
    All the outside world subdued
    And it all comes back to me again
    In the gloom
    Like an angel passing through my room
    Half awake and half in dreams
    Seeing long forgotten scenes
    So the present runs into the past
    Now and then become entwined
    Playing games within my mind
    Like the embers as they die
    Love was one prolonged goodbye
    And it all comes back to me tonight
    In the gloom
    Like an angel passing through my room
    I close my eyes
    And my twilight images go by
    All too soon
    Like an angel passing through my room
    Like the embers as they die
    Love was one prolonged goodbye
    And it all comes back to me tonight
    In the gloom
    Like an angel passing through my room
    I close my eyes
    And my twilight images go by
    All too soon
    Like an angel passing through my room
    Audiences still have not forgotten Sissel’s stunning performances at the Choir and Orchestra’s 2006 Christmas concerts and still regard her as one of the favorite guests of the Choir. The concert was shown in 2007 on PBS stations to 4 million viewers around the country. The Christmas CD, Spirit of the Season, was #1 on Billboard’s Classical chart for nine weeks and was nominated for two Grammy® awards.

Now we are blessed with the absolutely beautiful voice of Ms Sissel, my cup runneth over! During these uncertain times, I ask the Lord's Blessings and His Protection on All of us and our families! Thank you choir, orchestra, director, Ms Sissel and support staff! Stay safe and look out for each other! Love to All from rural Mississippi!

    When people think of ABBA they think of Dancing Queen and Waterloo. But there is another ABBA. This has been one of my favorite ABBA songs for years. And Sissel and the MTC knock it out of the park here. Gorgeous. Those long, extended notes are glorious. Thank you for the music ABBA, MTC and Sissel.

    When Sissel's crystalline voice becomes entwined in the accompaniment of the piano, and, the violin, the listener is dissolved in transportations of bliss!

    We sometimes start or end our Bible studies with this prayer, and during this time of tribulation with the Coronavirus, as we begin the Gospel of John via video conference instead of in person, this soothing prayer as sung by an angel stirs our hearts.

    • @stevewickens1163
      @stevewickens1163 Před 2 lety +2

      It isn't a prayer! It's an ABBA song. However, using it as a prayer is a wonderful idea as I suspect it offers peace and calm in a turbulent world.

    Long awaited darkness falls
    Casting shadows on the walls
    In the twilight hour I am alone
    Sitting near the fireplace
    Dying embers warm my face
    In this peaceful solitude
    All the outside world subdued
    And it all comes back to me again
    In the gloom
    Like an angel passing through my room
    Half awake and half in dreams
    Seeing long forgotten scenes
    So the present runs into the past
    Now and then become entwined
    Playing games within my mind
    Like the embers as they die
    Love was one prolonged goodbye
    And it all comes back to me tonight
    In the gloom
    Like an angel passing through my room
    I close my eyes
    And my twilight images go by
    All too soon
    Like an angel passing through my room
    Like the embers as they die
    Love was one prolonged goodbye
    And it all comes back to me tonight
    In the gloom
    Like an angel passing through my room
    I close my eyes
    And my twilight images go by
    All too soon
    Like an angel passing through my room

    Miss my mum so much and this takes me back to her passing and my memories of her slowly fading away

    This is the first time I ever heard of Sissel, when she appeared with the Choir. I have been listening to her almost every day since. This is still my favorite song she sings. Of course ABBA has been my favorite group since the 70's, when my oldest daughter started listening to them. This is the only song ABBA produced as a solo and Sissle brings out all the feelings there. Such a beautiful voice.

      I've been fortunate to "stumble" upon her over 30 years ago the circumstances of which I can't even remember. the first time I heard her I remember it wasn't even in English it was her voice that captivated me (even though I could not understand a word). She is truly a gift to the world.
