My wife had ovarian cancer. It was a 4-year journey. God used this song to get us through many anxious, tearful nights. It is comforting to me that she is now face-to-face with Jesus, King of Angels.
Sincerest condolences, HS. I can’t imagine the pain you must’ve experienced during your wife’s illness. So glad to hear that music brought you such comfort during the whole thing. Hope that it still does.
I listen to his hymns daily. So many are comforting to the soul. If anyone deserves a Dove award it is Mr Ortega. He has a heart for God and it shows in his songs
There is an interesting mention of this song in a book that I am currently reading. The book is called "Flash: the homeless donkey who taught me about Life, Faith and Second Chances" written by Rachel Anne Ridge. In the book she had just lost her baby son that died just shortly before he would have been born due to the trauma of her having been in a head-on car accident. She was given one day after receiving the news that the baby had died before she had to go in and have induced labor to deliver the baby. It was about that night she wrote: "It happened when the old clock radio next to my bed clicked on at a time no one had set it for. As I struggled to figure out why the radio was on at that strange hour, a song by Fernando Ortega began to play. 'Jesus, King of Angels' *poured over me like warm honey*. That's the only way I can describe it. I weighed a thousand pounds and could not move as the words gently dripped down into my soul and pooled there. The lyrics reminded me that the infinite God of the universe is mindful of each sparrow that falls. My baby. Oh, my little one. He was mindful of all the anxious thoughts that filled me and He would be with me and keep me in His peace. The final notes of the guitar faded..." How precious is this song--that God used it to ease the suffering of someone facing such a tragic and devastating loss!!
I call this song my grown up lullaby. When I feel troubled this song brings comfort. Praise God for the words of peace and comfort and the beauty of the melody and especially voice of the one who shares it with us.
I just found this is in February 2023 and had never seen it before. What a blessing. I’ve always loved Alison and Akus, and more recently discovered Fernando, Ron Block from AKUS has spoken about his music and I’m getting into it more now after all these years. So much better than most of of the contemporary Christian music, no comparison, just my opinion. What a blessing. Peace 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
If there was a way for one person to click many, many likes, I’d fill up whatever space was allowed. This composer and singer, and this song, and this performance, deserve them all.
If this song was placed on an album, was Alison a part of its recording too or does she only sing it here during this performance of the song? God bless you and my role model always!!! Holly in east TN (a fan of her since 1994)

One of the most beautiful and heart felt songs I have ever heard.
So lovely. Thank God for the gift of Fernando!
One of my absolute favorites!! ♥️
Que hermoso himno!!!
Love Allison Krauss so angelic is her voice
I have been praying to find this kind of Christian ✝️ music "forever" I don't know what took me so long...Praise the Lord....God bless you 🙏❤
Another artist you may enjoy is Michael Card. His music is scripturally sound and your spirit resonates in worship. Blessings
I encourage you to discover Marty Goetz. Right from the pages of scripture. Nice to meet you, Sister!
So very beautiful!
BEAUTIFUL.. ❤

This song - no words sum it ALL up for my heart so perfectly
Beautiful to hear, and specially blessed to see others like myself reaching back 23 yrs in response to God calling us back to His heart
Beautiful! What a prayer!
