Father Ray, that was a beautiful rendition of Drummer Boy. Many thanks to you for all of the people whose lives you have blessed. Bravo from the USA !!
Yes, Ireland is a proud Country to have Father Ray Kelly grace it with his presence. Father is a very special human being. I really wish we had him in America. In Michigan, where I could get to go meet him get to listen to him in person. He has a special gift given to him by God n he is sharing it w all the world. His voice is so beautiful n gives my goose bumps every time I hear him sing. Amazing. Thank you Father. I feel so Blessed to be a Catholic. Father makes us so proud !!! God Bless Father Ray forever.
His voice is truly heaven sent. I'm quite sure God is smiling everytime he sings. Thank you Father and may God continue to bless and keep you and may his angel's surround you always 🙏 ❤
Dear Father Ray Kelly...your passion for singing allows us to feel & see love. The world's people need love right now. They need to see & feel love. I pray this Christmas you will guide us the way to love through your singing. I think this Christmas will be so important as a negative influence has been cast over us. Amen.
Father Ray Kelly you really are an inspiration. I'm sure your church services have brought people back in droves. God bless you and may you continue to sing.
@@kayaustin517 looked up the information on what happen to that little child never heard anything about it I was just a kid young back than thanks sorry that you have bad thoughts if this song mine was good cause my priest sang that when I was happy
For those who are non believers I doubt if you are listening to this. If you happen on this site you will see how God works through his people. Father Kelly is truly a gift from God. Just listen and believe.
Came across Father Kelly a couple days ago a beautiful voice! True gift from God! Would love to hear him in church mass! God Bless and Merry Christmas!
Father ray kelly ist ein guter mensch und er singt so gut. Gott ist mit ihm:-) mein traum wehre es einmal in der kirche zu sitzen und live dabei zu sein.
I came to know, in my youth that , truly, Music is a Universal Language ... For all Mankind ... When profound lyrics are written and put to music - and there are the right persons - of which there are many --- to sing them. And persons to understand and grasp them ... There is always hope for the future generations ...
Happy holidays Father Kelly! I want to thank you for sharing your beautiful voice with us! I have never in my 78 years such beautiful singing and you ought to be so proud that you were blessed with such a wonderful voice Plus the fact you are very humble about it which is so impressive to me! Thank you Father Kelly, I have recorded many of your songs on my tablet and listen to them year round . Please don't ever change is your humbleness makes you beautiful inside and out. I thank you kindly for sharing your beautiful music with us. I am forever grateful! We love you and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts! Happy holidays!🙏❤️☺️🙏
Father Kelly, Cristmas are slowly comming and im just fell in love to your message. Unfortunately we dont have such amazing priest in Czech Republic - but to be honest - you are truly gifted by our Lord.
Waooooo. This is lovely and beautiful.I live in Nigeria and a am Baptist. I don't segregate and willlove to visit this man of God. May God bless u Rev Fr Kay
Man of God???? Dont you know the Chatolic church has been the greatast procecuter of true believers? - and their doctrin are the same today as always. they are just wolfes - predenting to be sheeps. Hear only JESUS. Dont be ingnorant - do some research!! The socalled father substitue them self with Jesus - thay say you only need a "father" as replasement of Jesus! Be very carfull to follow this false shepards!!!!
Father Ray you are an angel on earth. Though human and have your challenges along your way may I say you are a gifted chosen one. Stay strong pet along your way. God Bless You Always.
Thank God for your voice father. I just lost my niece of 28 years because she felt she couldn't deal with life anymore. How tragic a loss. For some reason I ran across this video and your voice and it seemed to help comfort. Thanks once again father. Take care and God bless.
I also am in that Category Yvonne..It does Make You Feel closer to God and Soft at Heart when Fr Ray Sings.. It also Brings a Touch Of Ireland into the heart.
this was my firstborn sons fav xmas song, he was taken from us at 9yrs old and is safe in gods loving arms. thank you so much FATHER FOR THIS BEAUTIFUL SONG AND THE MEMORIES IT HOLDS FOR US
I respect father Ray a lot. The world needs more of this kind of priests.. He's such an inspiration for so many, touching gently people's souls. Mine too and i'm not religious. He's 61 now but i hope he becomes 120 years...
Catholicism needs to take a long look at themselves. This brother is true christian faith in action. Not some pious religious boring ideological prat. If all catholic priests were more like this brother, Catholic churches world wide would be fuller than they are now. God bless you brother, you rock.
Father Kelly has been the BEST THING found in 2021 - Simon Cowell was SPOT ON !!! My FAITH has been restored. Thank you GOD for Father Kelly and the voice you "gifted" him.
I'll bet when words spreads that Fr. Ray Kelly is going to celebrate any occasion in a neighborhood the place fills quickly. His sharing of his God given talent is remarkable!
How lucky that parish is to have such a good Parish Priest. Most American churches don't even have a Priest much less one that goes out into the neighborhoods they are suppose to be there for!
If you believe in what the religious do, then you would realize that death here is nothing. We know that there is a far better world waiting for us and it will be for eternity. It's an awesome feeling. Share it with us. Bitterness and hatred are wasted emotions. Know the peace that comes with comfort.
Bradley Suarez God made with a free will, the free will to do wonderfully good things and the free will to do evil. MAN is the one who makes the choice as to what he will do-good or evil. Jesus taught equality, love, grace to all. How amazing would it be if all followed His teachings? That we love..honor..respect..cherish..build up..help one another, can you imagine?!?!
Father Ray Kelly is a Man of God who graciously Shares his God Given Talent with us for which I am extremely Greatful. The first time I saw him was Britian's Got Talent recently and that happened 5-years ago when he sang his version of R.E.M.'s "Everybody Hurts", great to see addition videos like this.
Father, I am a Lutheran but sometimes when I lived outside my country, I went to Catholic church mass. When I talked about it with my chuch, they applauded. Because it made me happy. You make me happy too when singing!
. But Ray Kelly's father sings beautifully. Hardly anyone has such a talent for singing. Thank you for sharing this talent with us, because it's worth listening to, congratulating and I wish you good health.
Love you Ray Kelly from Texas. Beautiful voice plzzzzz ZZ. Make a CD. I will diffinitely BUY IT. LOVELY VOICE. Jesus thank you for your son singing to us. We love you Ray
Father Ray doesn't only sings a marvellous Christmas carol, but much more. He sings Love to Jesus, the Love everyone ought to have inside. There is a theological meaning, too. It's the parable of the Talents.The little drummer was so poor he decided to give Jesus the only thing he had... his music. A gift that doesn't cost anything, but a gift only Jesus knows the real value !
With such celebreations and such voices much more people would find there way back to church.. Whenever I'll be in Ireland I wanna be married by Father Ray, believe me... *gooseskin*. Go ahead, Father Ray Kelly...
Him and his family have my true respects, I wish I had him as my dad, my faith in humanity would be restored I'm sure he has absolute respect for his family and to make them happy
@@simonesmit6708 lots of Catholic priests have children. Of course, they don’t make it public, just like they don’t like their paedophile priests being outed.
@@davinathorne5215 very sorry you have had such experiences. However with 15 years in the mental health area as a careworker, I havd seen asses in every profession and family. Sadly professions such as religious ones attract creepy people to a much higher rate due to the increased access to vulnerable people and children. Locally we are having an bad issue with bad teachers.😓
I am not religious, however, I love this music and all that it stands for. It shows that religion embraces us all in some way. Thank you for your music and love.
Fr kelly yiu need to get together with our irish priest fr brian barker of the dioese of bevelle ill of st joseph catholic church of marion ill he sings and plays the baby grand piano.he been to ireland alot.he from the south side chicago ill where the ethic irish lives👍😁📿🙏
I’m not religious, but I believe in God and His son, just not in any church, this man is a great singer who brings his testimony out by his voice
Ich ja .🎉😊
I am a Roman Catholic, and I love my faith which has helped me through thick and thin. God only offers love and forgiveness.
He doesn't sing only with voice but with his heart. It's the best I have ever heard.
Father Ray, that was a beautiful rendition of Drummer Boy. Many thanks to you for all of the people whose lives you have blessed. Bravo from the USA !!

New York could use a few like him too.
Don'f know what to say.. am not a believer but I should be
His voice is truly heaven sent. I'm quite sure God is smiling everytime he sings. Thank you Father and may God continue to bless and keep you and may his angel's surround you always 🙏 ❤
I get CHILLS hearing him sing. His voice is a gift. BE BLESSED ❤💯
The world need more priest and pastors like him.

Wonderful-I love to see how he breaks the mould and makes you feel it’s worth going to church for his sprit and zest and message of inclusion.
De acuerdo, I agree with you. Bendiciones Ruth

One of my faves, made even better when the Rs are rolled unlike the Americans.
Thank you, Father Kelly.
