What do I love most about this video?
The vocals?
The children?
The visuals?
All are great!
But I love that multiple religions are highlighted! Hinduism, Muslim, Christian, Catholic, Judaism, Islam, and Buddhism are all shown! We are all children of a loving Heavenly Father, and I love that this video represents that no matter what religious, ethnic, or other “delineations” exist, we all share this same spiritual heritage!
Remember when David Archuleta and Nathan Pacheco sang the same song?
Or how about Lexi Walker, Jenny Oaks Baker, and Kurt Bestor?
