This song is a classic. Check out this video where a young woman sings a special rendition of “Bridge Over Troubled Water.”

As Lucy Thomas begins to open her voice, we hear an angelic pitch. She gazes intently at the camera with a serious face. She really encaptures the message of this song.

The chorus sings:

Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

Lucy is very theatrical and clearly has a stage presence. She hits the high notes beautifully and has a nice classical sound. Her purity of voice sings out to this hit song. Suddenly, a photograph sequence of one person lending a helping hand to another appears. 

One photo shows friends walking arm in arm. Lucy shares this message through her stunning soprano voice. She has a nice flare and pop style at the end of her video.

Lucy clearly has a passion for performing and theatrics. This clip has a dramatic flare. She portrays a valuable lesson of standing by our friends even when it is challenging.

It is the concept of dying to self and living for another. Jesus Himself lived this out perfectly. He tells us that we are called to love Him and love others. He shares that true love is laying down your life for a friend. 

He did this in His death on the cross for our sins. As you listen to this timeless song, take a moment to reflect on the powerful truth that Christ died for you personally. Think about creative ways that you can be selfless and lay your life down for others. 

“No one has greater love than this: to lay down his life for his friends.” John 15:13
