Alfie Boe sings "Bring Him Home," from Les Misérables in an awe-inspiring moment at the 2012 Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas concert. Music by Claude-Michel Schönberg.

Lyrics:
God on high
Hear my prayer
In my need
You have always been there

He is young
He's afraid
Let him rest
Heaven blessed.
Bring him home
Bring him home
Bring him home.

He's like the son I might have known
If God had granted me a son.
The summers die
One by one
How soon they fly
On and on
And I am old
And will be gone.

Bring him peace
Bring him joy
He is young
He is only a boy

You can take
You can give
Let him be
Let him live
If I die, let me die
Let him live
Bring him home
Bring him home
Bring him home.

    This was my prayer when my granddaughter had to undergo an 8 hour heart operation. Thanks to God and the medical team she came home... I cry every time I hear it. Beautiful rendition.

    Have chosen this for my Dad's funeral next week. We're bringing him home and he'll be at peace with his beloved wife again xx
  • @hayleybell2008
    What you don't hear in this recording is the entire 22,000 seat house holding their breath through the end, then the 3-4 minute standing ovation. It was a spiritual experience.
  • @rovingdodge
    I played this song to my elderly mother and it made her cry....she died a month ago and I miss her so very much. Love you Mum.
  • @MikeSala65
    My wife an I always remember our son Alex when we hear this amazing song. Alex passed away when he was just fifteen and we knew then as we know now he was'n dead. He just went back home to our Heavenly Father. Some day we'll be reunited again because families are forever.
  • ❤my Dad loved this performance. It was our song during hospice. He is now home.
  • This is the best rendition of Bring Him Home by Alfie Boe. He gave his all here.
  • This is without question in my mind, the best version of this amazing song. How Alfie Boe can go from such a sweet whisper to strong vehemence is so incredible.
  • @susieqlind
    His voice soothes my heart. His expression of emotion is from heaven. May God bless him through his life! This has always been my prayer for my missionaries .
  • @geo_video
    Thinking of 72-year-old Italian priest Don Giuseppe Berardelli, who died in March after giving up his ventilator to a younger person during the Corona Virus.
  • I have to attend the funeral of a young man who died in a freak accident last Thursday and he leaves behind a wife and two young sons and a baby on the way. I'm old and battling cancer. I honestly wish I could exchange my life for his. I've lived a full life and experienced many things, he has sons who will never know how truly amazing their father was.
  • @FromtheHerts81
    You could probably fill a swimming pool with all the tears people have cried watching Les Miserables over the years.
  • Can't you just hear the Father saying to you, "Bring them home". He loves us all so much. He wants us all Home with him and with each other.
  • Alfie Boe gave justice to this heavenly song with his perfect pitch from start to finish! I can listen all day and night! I love the song and the singer! Hurrah!
  • @rosanndavis8177
    Get you . I sang this every nite in me head. Whilst my son my 2 year old boy was fighting cancer. 13 years on. One special young man. 🐼
  • @wrenabramo8175
    This is the most beautiful version I've heard of this special piece of music.
