I've made a few Lyrics Videos, for me or my family, and this song has always been a favorite of mine especially when Andrea and Celine sing it. It was made for them to perform it and they did it magnificently! Bravo! #celinedion #andreabocelli #theprayer #davidfoster #carolebayersayer #Albertotesta #tonyrenis #songs #lovesongs #opera
