Rise Up Children’s Choir Sings Chilling Tune ‘I Believe’ - Christian Music Videos

A group of musically gifted children turned in a stunning performance, singing a song about finding and having hope and faith even in the bleakest of situations.

Throughout history, human beings have shown that they are capable of some truly horrific, revolting and sickening things. One of the most prominent examples, which perfectly illustrates the level of evil humans are capable of, is the Holocaust during WWII. But even during that time, when Jews were systematically murdered and forced into hiding, some still managed to search for and find hope.

In a clip posted on YouTube, a couple of dozen children sing “I Believe.” According to the video’s description, the song’s lyrics were found, originally written on the wall of an underground shelter in Cologne, Germany. That location was used for those of the Jewish faith to hide and avoid the horrors of the Holocaust. 

The words the children so beautifully sing are moving, heartbreaking and full of hope at the same time.

“I believe in the Sun, even when, even when it’s not shining
I believe in love, even when, even when I don’t feel it
I believe in God, even when, even when He is silent”

Those powerful lyrics help to put things in perspective. If someone, when one group of people was slaughtering another simply for being different, can hold out hope and faith for a better tomorrow, what excuse do we have? 

It’s likely that none of us will ever face a situation like the Holocaust but people still complain about their present circumstances, believing that the world has somehow conspired against them. Even when it may not appear like it, even when all hope appears to be lost, God is still in control. He is still working and will never leave nor forsake us.

Isaiah 41:10 “Have no fear, for I am with you; do not be looking about in trouble, for I am your God; I will give you strength, yes, I will be your helper; yes, my true right hand will be your support.”
