This is in her bedroom. Can you imagine the hights a recording studio could take that voice. This recording, no sound board , no professionals, just her beautiful voice.
I have to come here every so often just to get right. This song is special because I used to sing this with my sisters before our family blew up. This helps remind me there were some good times growing up, not many but some. It's still that way, some good times, not many but some.
This version by her of this song is so special it is underrated, indescribable and flawless I get chills every time I listen to her sincerity, genuine love for the music
I was looking for a male cover for my father and this popped up but I clicked on it because I liked the mic/room setup. What a beautiful voice! You don’t even need all the runs that you did because within the first 30 seconds I could tell you are vocally blessed. Keep it soft and centered on God then hit them with the extra skills mid song and towards the end. Just singer to singer advice. Your voice should be heard all over the world. God bless. 🙏🏾💛
Thank you so much Mara, I pray for you because I am a believer like you! and God always answers my prayers, and he knew I needed to hear this today, so anointed this song, because u know why? because u just sung his holy word! and I got blessed, and many others will too,continue to lift up his Awesome name, and you will be blessed indeed my friend. LOVE YOU.
I love your album, but my favorites are all videos you've recorded, from that very first "Wow! moment" on AGT to the Fox & Friends appearance and the Taj Mahal show. Why? Because you're so much more than an excellent voice, you're a truly wonderful performer who puts so much emotion in your movements as well as your voice.
The thought of seeing and America's Got Talent contestant now grown up as a 15 year old teenage girl makes me happy. Because I remember that strong voice anywhere since she was 11 watching America's Got Talent. Have to admit I'm going to miss her being 11 years old but, seeing her grow up to be a singer in a choir anything what make the entire town happy:-)
God gave many ppl this miraculous gift of singing. Many started with Godly songs and hymns. Then the (god) of this world steals it for his own pleasure and purpose and then their life get destroyed. It's a gift comes from above it should be given to the one above the one the only one to honor and glorify. He is worthy to be praised. Lord God spoke the world into existence. Today is March 3rd 2021
Ms Mara I am back for some heaven here on earth. I've had a rough day with chronic pain today. I just wanted you to know that I often come back to this video as it brings me such peace and helps me escape the pain just for a few minutes. I was injured in a car wreck 20 + years ago and some days its just hard to hear myself think over the constant noise in my brain. You are an angel sent from heaven to help us remember that Jesus IS our constant friend. I pray for you sweet young lady that you will be able to share that God given voice with the world for many years to come and that you not succumb to a lot of the pitfalls that many other young artists have fallen prey to.
Mara it makes me so sad you didn't make it to the top 10 on American Idol tonight. Your voice is amazing. You are amazing. And I feel like you are still going to go far.
Flawless, effortless truly talented I get chills every time I hear her voice I go back to this every time I need inspiration she is indescribable when I think about what she does to my soul ! 2021 still listening
I am back . Had to get me a little bit of Miss Mara tonight. Praying for this ravaged world and the people who live in it as diseases. wars, and hate continue to make the headlines. Thank you sweet Mara for reminding us all that God is in heaven and He is watching us.
I sincerely hope and pray she sees this you are such an amazing talent Justine I’m just saying She just touches my whole soul in a different place this girl is truly vocally talented Still listening 2021
OMG girl you are fabulous. Just watched your audition and came here immediately to subscribe. God bless you. 🙏 God I love this, you have blessed me greatly with your music. 😇 Thank you for you. 😘
Mara, God has blessed you with a beautiful voice! Continue to grow your talent. I love this song. This is beautiful! I hope to hear more Christian songs!
I really hope you win! I think you are absolutely amazing, your voice touches my soul and I would love to hear so much more music from you and see how far you go in the music industry. Please don't lose yourself in the celebrity world, you are an amazing and beautiful individual!
Gosh that was just beautiful. Mara your simple presentation of that big voice of yours is just about the best of any of your performances on Idol or AGT. I come back to this over and over because it really showcases your voice and it makes me feel something when I hear you. I don't think you need to dance on stage or anything showy because your voice is so pure and great. Just sing and tell us a story! Love you!
OH MY GOSH! I am so glad you have a channel. I miss you already, I was looking forward to you on the top 10. (my comment from amer idol final performance) MARA.. if you read these comments. PLEASE take the critique n negativity with a grain of salt. Take in the comments of those of us that love you. Not one person's voice is ever liked by all. Different tastes all over but for some of us, you & your voice are a pure winner & we want you in mainstream! This is only your beginning & you know what? Some doors close because there are much more beautiful ones around the corner with your name on them. I lived many years on this planet & have several instances of this. Looking at things from the future paints the picture clear. Much love & adoration for you my dear. I am sad you are leaving, but for me. I have a feeling the universe knows a lil bit about the perfect timing for you. Maybe it would have been too much for such a young lady, things would have changed in you that can't change to maintain your peace & happiness. Trust the universe sweetie, so many are missing you already! xoxo
