To use this video in a commercial player, advertising or in broadcasts, please email info@thetwopatricks.org
These lyrics are original and written by a girl in Enniskillen, Northern Ireland, I think. So many have asked for them I hope the girl who wrote them gets in touch with me.
WE JOIN TOGETHER HERE TODAY,
TO HELP TWO PEOPLE ON THEIR WAY,
AS LEAH AND CHRIS START THEIR LIFE TOGETHER,
AND NOW WE'VE REACHED THEIR SPECIAL DATE,
WE'VE COME TO HELP THEM CELEBRATE,
AND SHOW THEM HOW MUCH WE LOVE THEM TOO,
HALLELUJAH, HALLELUJAH, HALLELUJAH
HALLELUJAH,
AS LEAH IS WALKING UP THE AISLE,
AND CHRIS LOOKS UP AND GIVES A SMILE,
THE LOVE THAT FLOWS BETWEEN THEM FILLS THE CHURCH,
WITH LEAH'S FRIENDS AND FAMILY ON HER SIDE,
SHE REALLY IS THE BLUSHING BRIDE,
WITH LOVE AND PRIDE THEY LEAD HER
HALLELUJAH,
HALLELUJAH, HALLELUJAH, HALLELUJAH
HALLELUJAH,
WITH THE PRIEST AND THE FAMILY WHO LEAD THE PRAYERS,
WE SAY OUR LINES AND THEY SAY THEIRS,
I GUIDE THEM THROUGH THE CEREMONY,
AND IN THIS HOUSE OF GOD ABOVE,
THEY JOIN THEIR HANDS TO SHOW THEIR LOVE,
AND SAY THOSE MOST IMPORTANT WORDS THAT YOU HEARD,
HALLELUJAH, HALLELUJAH, HALLELUJAH
HALLELUJAH,
HALLELUJAH, HALLELUJAH, HALLELUJAH
HALLELUJAH,
HALLELUJAH,
HALLELUJAH.

❤❤ 9 years later and I’m still getting GOOSEBUMPS!!! Love this!!❤❤
Was für eine schöne Stimme 😊
mich würde interessieren ob die beiden nach 10 jahren immernoch verheiratet sind
I am Muslim and I find this truly beautiful. May God bless you Father, this lovely couple and y'all watching. Peace and love ❤️

Was macht es aus, welche Religion wir haben? Wenn wir zusammen das Schöne sehen?
there is no god, just fools who believe in BS
Don't believe you any word. Religion worlds biggest disease and has to be stamped out.

Proud of my Irish catholic heritage. How can you not get a goosebump or lump in the throat after listening to the father. Spot on and funny too! Natural stage presence
❤️❤️❤️❤️ Greetings from Poland 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Fair play to you. Pity there isn't more like you. All the young ones are ashamed of being Catholic and Irish nowadays
@@keithp6699 just had my 3 kids baptized. I live in Maine USA but have deep Irish roots. It is a shame. Think people tend to deem the entire church bad for the actions of few sick people.
@@keithp6699 Mac Ronan is Irish in the same way a 9 year old boy on Halloween is a vampire. Ronan is American, like me and like, I suspect, you as well.
Can you fucking blame them! @@keithp6699
This was my husband's funeral song. The first time I watched Fr Kelly singing my heart began healing. 8 years later,he makes my heart happy! 🎵💖🎶
Hh😊😊😊😮😮😮😊😮😊😅😅😊😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😊😅
You mean...the original Hallelujah was his funeral song right?
@@LadyWolfeRyder Hallelujah, by Leonard Cohen,was played! When I heard Fr. Kelly's version my soul began to heal.💞
You realize its about an affair and orgazm?
Who is still watching with me this 2020
Can't stop listening...such a nice song
What a beautiful recital .... Err hang on, what has this got to do with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass or the Sacrament of Marriage ????

This priest would get me in church every week. We need more like him!!
Great homily or not so great - the Eucharist gets me into church. But I hear know what you mean.
Unfortunately he died
You're both right!! Love is the greatest gift there is. As is health and faith.
Nothing material comes near.
Nor ever will.
@Happycatholic389 thank-you for saying this.
Now it is almost 90 million of us love this. Thanks Father Ray.
The song, the voice, the singer, the priest he is, the message, ....this puts a smile on the face of Jesus!
Amen
And not only Jesus, I smile too 😂😳😇👍
@@SanderVanierschot Oh, so that's OK then, mustn't let you be overshadowed by JESUS CHRIST, SON OF THE LIVING GOD.

I'm not Irish, I'm from Poland, but you should be proud of this guy! he's amazing!
I am 58 years old and this seriously brought tears to my eyes. He is absolutely amazing
I'm 16 and it did the same
The priest really shows the heart of the FATHER.
I'm a crocodile, and this brought me to tears. And gave me the ability to type comments in English. Somehow my tears weren't crocodile tears.
Me too, I was teary-eyed thru the entire song. Beautiful and heartwarming. His voice reverberated thru my soul!
That's the real,amazing Christ love❤
2024 and i'm revisiting this; so beautiful and touching
Ditto!
I wish I could keep clicking the thumbs up on this. I've watched it so many times and each time I shed some tears it's just so beautiful. What a beautiful thing for this Priest to do for this couple.
,🙏
*HE WENT BRITISH GOT TALENT SIMON AND THE WHOLE FLOOR GAVE HIM OUTSTANDING OVATION*
He sang REM's Everybody Hurts. It might be considered a softer version of the song, but he was awesome. He sang with such feeling. Knocked it out of the park.

I am not a big fan of changing the lyrics but the priest's sense of humor and humility is grandiose. The world needs more clerics like him..
To be honest : The World doesn`t ANY Clerics.
The World needs more Humanists.
But when it comes to this Priest, i have to agree.
He did absolutely GREAT, and i bet the Couple will never ever forget this.
What a wonderful Surprise for them.
Beautifully sung.
The angels sing with him so beautifully!
I get goosebumps every time😇
You creazy.

It's just medieval thinking about God and everything around us...But we are not alone in universe, yes we have God, but we have completely to change the thinking and believing, we are not living in medieveli times so wake up people !!! ;)
@@cptVLK If you disagree with someone else's thinking why don't you just keep it to yourself as long as it doesn't harm others. These were my feeling, my thoughts when I watched this video and I don't really care what yours are.

I'm not catholic but I do have Irish heritage and I'm proud of the Irish and thank God blessed me to be American of Irish decent.
I am currently watching a video of best auditions and Father Kelly is auditioning!!
So then I went to CZcams and found THIS!!!
My FAVOURITE song ever, and this glorious man is singing it!! Different words but STILL brought tears to my eyes....imagine my surprise when I realised THIS video is 9 years ago!!!
Father Kelly, WE LOVE YOU!!!!! lots of love from Australia 🇦🇺 ❤️ 💕 💙
When the comments are just full of love and you managed to touch 79 million people with a message of celebrating love. You’ve done your part. This world is beautiful because the good do so much.
I come back to listen to this about once a year. Love love love this

Me too
Love Father Pat

@@giantscauseway45 sorry you feel that way, there are cases like that, but there is good as well, the message is nice, let it breath a bit.
You can feel this dear man’s genuine love and happiness! God Bless you Father Ray ❤️🙏
I had to find this saw it on tic tok. I knew he was an Irish priest by the twinkle in his eye and the sound of his voice. This is such a beautiful thing.
I have watched this so many times over the years. A great rendition of a beautiful song, and his cheeky grin gets me everytime. He's so cute 🤗
God bless his god given talent
He knows he's good and honestly I'm here for it 😏 👏🏽
Me too bhe❤
That explains the 89 million views, lol.
He makes me smile
Now THATS a church that shows its people the love of Jesus!
So true
+Sabin Acle i never et that chap you call james. what collage orprimary school is he at.he proably is a bummer?
I have seen this many times and it never gets old. Just beautiful.
A huge congratulations to the bride and groom ! The man singing this song really made everyone's day the day this was recorded . I hope all made it through COVID-19 and are still healthy.
The "man" singing IS A ROMAN CATHOLIC PRIEST.
I'm an atheist, but I wish to thank and praise Father Kelly for being an awesome human being. This video delights me, it's wonderful.
I'm Catholic. Glad you were uplifted by him, me too
Are you a believer now?
It wasn't Father Kelly you were feeling Hong Kong. He's just a messenger. Did you know Albert Einstein became a Christian before he died?
Magnifique
Is a way to become Catholic?!!
I am an atheist and loathe religious ceremony, but this warmed my heart for its sheer humanity. Wonderful!
come back home, your father is waiting for you
Same with me!💛 great singing wow
It's so hard to believe in something you can't see and when you hear so many stories about who is right and wrong. But those feelings in your gut that guides you to right and wrong, those goosebumps on your skin when something touches you emotionally, that desire to help someone who is less fortunate than you are is the same love God has and is what drives humankind to do good things in the world. Sicknesses, cancers, broken hearts don't come from God. Our ability to learn from these trials, fight through them and the tell our story to someone else, our growth as human beings when we make it through tragedy is proof of love we can't see. A relationship with God has nothing to do with anyone else here on earth. I have been in some really dark places on my life but every time I would hear a bird chirp or feel the sun on my face or the wind in my hair and realize even though I am small and insignificant in the grand scheme of things and in this huge world even I can do good for someone else and that is love.
I keep coming back to this one, it’s just so joyful.
I can watch this over and over! My favorite for ever!
You're something Father, you really are! God must smile when you sing!
Öööö
Lucy Pitts from Enniskillen, Co Fermanagh wrote the words to the song that Father Ray is singing...credit is due to this girl...she wrote the lyrics when she was 10 years old she is now 14...well done Lucy
My late grandfather was from Enniskillen. His name was John Prunty.
Enniskillen is about one hour drive from me...I do know a Prunty from there...
Well done Lucy :)
Song writers and singers are two different breeds. Even if he didn't write the song, he sang it beautifully.
And to Father Rays character he did give her the credit in an interview.
This beautiful Hallelujah song I sang it at my cousin's wedding 1 month ago and I did it after the wedding march, when I was singing it everyone in the church was in tears and more my cousin whom I had not seen for 15 years and when I finished we gave each other a big hug that lasted a few minutes and we swore not to be separated anymore while all my relatives and the relatives of the groom did not believe that I had sung this song since I belong to the gothic culture
God bless you Father Kelly!
I want to fly to Ireland and renew the wedding vows with this Priest singing! WOW 🤩
Me too!!!!!
This priest really loves to sing, and he's great at it! ❤
How are you doing today my name is Eric
What a voice you have Father. It’s a beautiful thing to do. ❤️❤️
Miałem ciary na plecach i nadal mam jak czasami tego posłucham! Prawdziwy talent! Boże ześlij nam więcej takich księży. Amen ❤🙏
that church accoustics are simply epic
The acoustic in a hall like the Carnegie Hall is good ;). The acoustic of a church is bullshit haha
stfu
I have heard many Hallelujahs, I declare this the best.
hold on mate...The original one, by Leonard Cohen is the first and the best one. This one is right behind it! :)

So church can be fun. Thanks father Ray Kelly!

This Irish priest has the most beautiful voice I have ever heard of, makes me proud to be Irish
This one... Iconic and original. Never gets old; it brings on the feels, the joy, the merriment, the gratitude, and the love... Thanks all for posting and sharing this beautiful video and the talent.
Fr. Kelly is an unconventional catholic priest and his style is a sure one way of enriching the church and his congregation. God bless you Father
So true
I can't be the only one in tears? "This is the wedding queens dream of" the acoustics are amazing
Every time I watch this I love it more. What a voice.
how can you give a dislike on this beautiful video?

Because he changed the original lyric by Leonard Cohen :( Not cool.
he made in special for them
One day when He Gets to heaven just imagine how he'll be singing with Angels in heaven☺☺☺
" Amen❗"
Amen! I agree!!🎶😊🎶😊
Truly a beautiful gift to the lucky couple who had a Priest sing such an amazing song to them. Wow... beautifully sung!
I never tire of watching this video. ❤
One of the most beautiful renditions of this or any song ever. Father Kelly is something special, a true gift from God, his parishioners are truly blessed to have this beautiful soul as their Priest! May God bless you and keep you safe for many years to come. Truly one of a kind!!
i was just wondering , if i'm going to get married , , he should be the officiating priest , , but that is too late . .
Lisa не перехвалите его.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
What a joy when a presiding priest sings with gladness and pride for the newly weds. I'm glad.
Such talent must have come from the Almighty Creator.
This is absolutely beautiful! I've been watching this for years and cry every single time. What a beautiful person w/an amazing voice. He has such a calm presence, I'm not a religious person but I would soak up everything he says. . Keep shining, Father Ray.🕊🕊🕊
This was incredible how you lifted up everybody's heart on this special day!
wOw, Bravo! Great Hallelujah!!! Real talent!

That's right. Vain×
I also listen to it every day , I would like a priest so ' at my wedding ;-) I love it when moving the lashes , but most is to see the face of the singers . :-)
Well, the Catholic Church has a long musical history, so...yeah.
Es ist immer wieder grandios zu hören! Ich habe es mir schon oft angehört und jedes Mal habe ich Gänsehaut! Wir sollten noch mehr Priester haben, d
Co za cudowna niespodzianka dla wszystkich gości. Dla Państwa Młodych Najpiękniejsze prezent😍 Ksiądz ma przepuekny głos.
Amazing Father Kelly😊
Father Kelly... still makes me feel better after 100+ times with this video.
An Angel on earth. Not the voice, but the soul.
Yes, God's chosen angel in Father Kelly.
What a beautiful and heavenly voice ❤
All the times I've heard people sing this song, He does it best ❤. Beautifully done, Beautiful Voice .
It's priests like this that make me enjoy life even more. I am not catholic nor christian of any sort. I love music, and I think this is just fucking awesome!
I'm a Catholic & like your post. I appreciate your honesty in giving credit where you think it's due.
I've seen a few negative comments to this video here. I don't believe in a God, but for those of you who think this was inappropriate or sacrilegious, I ask you this.... God is supposed to be love, if he is up there and doesn't look down on moments like this with a smile and love in his heart, then it's a God that doesn't have a place in this world anymore. I for one think he (or she!) would be filled with joy.
Very well put thank you
matt; you believe just with your countenance
I'm in agreement with all you have said and I second the motion !!
Matthew! Thank you for your kind words. Have a great day!
Well said Matthew! The greatest lack of love and understanding sometimes comes from those who are supposed to represent the kingdom! Thank you .....!
Wonderful! Truly wonderful! Thank you father for this beautiful interpretation of this beautiful song!
Absolutely beautiful! Blessings to you, Father Kelly!
Regardless of being an atheist, I can appreciate the brilliance of this. What an amazing voice :)
Same here, i dont believe in God either,
but this Priest NAILED IT !
What a GREAT Surprise for the Couple.
He also makes me want to go to the church. :)

Let´s be honest. He should be the pope! One can really see and feel the honest kindness in this person. For Leah & Chris and millions of others he just brought peace, tears and happiness into our lives 🥰
ps.: That smirk is just soooo gorgeous and human 🤭 2:59
I have never in my life heard it sang more beautifully than now. The man is truly blessed by God in Heaven.
It's very rare that an officiating priest sings for the bride and groom. Amazing.
It's very rare that anyone sings this good. I guess every priest would do it if he could sing like that.
It's very stupid that an offiacianting priest sings in a marriage.
Francesco So,YOU think.
This is the kind of church we want to belong to, this kind of priest with his talent, passion and sense of humor can turn away millions who are just leaving the church. Goodness gracious, Father Ray Kelly😇☺️😀
He might be a good singer , but that's about it , not much of a priest of the people tho !
@john tomas
Don't u know the power of music? Even miracles can be created by the power of song, that's the reason we were worshipping our God through singing, God loves to hear it.
@@1stLeonKing I agree 100% , but I no this guy , hes more concerned about how many views his videos and songs have ! He also got rid of choir and organ playing in his church and swapped it for his own CDs
@@johntomas5170 that's not a God's man if he waits for applause in his Church.
The applause is only for the God and Jesus.

Fr Ray will have a very special place in Heaven. Also what an incredible and powerful voice, astounding.
I have heard this so many times and always I am amazed by his performance ❤
As a proud Catholic I feel my faith raging through this song. God Bless you all
And god Bless you
Song Halleluya originally written by Leonard Cohen and beautifully sung and adapted for this wedding by Father Kelly.
There is nothing Catholic in the song, and nothing about faith in it either. Leonard Cohen's use of the word "Hallelujah" is not religious, but secular, and in a sense blasphemous. For a priest to sing this at the altar, while vested for Mass, and (it seems) during a wedding Mass is not lovely or nice, but is in fact shocking. All the more shocking that so many people think it is lovely.
This makes me realize how great the covenant with God, marriage is. Today, we take it for granted. I realize it’s so important to Him.
This only criticism I have is about microphone choice. That poor mic was not up for what Father Ray gave it. Then again, I'm a musician and an audio engineer along with being a Minister myself. You keep doing your thing Father Ray, that was amazing.
Yes, we need more priests like he is. Good voice, extra humor great attitude.
Father Ray Kelly. This is the most amazing sound I've ever heard.
I love this song
The man is a Sweetheart.
The shyness is present but overcame it by lifting his voice to God. Sung with emotion. The young couple in tears. Beautiful moment.
How brilliant is this man it gives me goosebumps every time I hear him
I’ve watched this at least 20 times over the years, and still love it
delate your man in black kurcze
I’m a Irish catholic and I love this video. The happy couple won’t forget this moment ever, what a brilliant moment. Fair play to you Fr Kelly
Im Scotch Irish and not Catholic ..or maybe I am ?
