Not just the men, but the women and the children all should like this video.

THEY CAME BACK FOR THOSE 3 KIDS AND WE MELTED 😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️

Just, wow, the kids brought all the Christmas spirit and energy, and Vocal Point crushed the harmonies and beats. McKay’s arrangement is gorgeous, the filming is amazing, and every single person added so much magic.

Props to the TONS of people behind the scenes making the magic happen too!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻

[RiseUpChildren]

I'm from South Africa 🇿🇦 and a proud member of the true church.. and the polar Express has always been one of my favourite movies i always use to watch with my mon, so this is just amazing ❤ God bless

[reeseoliveira]

This was INCREDIBLE! I love being in Rise Up Children's Choir SO much! Thank you for having us be in this video, Vocal Point! This was AMAZING!

[codyphillips]

Thumbs up if you think nobody has EVER performed "Believe" better than Yaphet just did. Unreal.

[Kelarys]

I've been playing 2:06-2:40 on loop all day. Particularly the part at 2:30, which I just can't get enough of haha, what a breathtaking harmony. My biggest regret in life is that I didn't sing more when I was younger. There's a special magic to these children's choirs and I'm delighted to get to watch them

[mckaycrock]

So grateful to be part of this amazing collaboration!! Shout to out Rise Up Children's Choir, Scott, Ryceejo, Amy, Suzy and the whole team. Such a joy!!

[davidwatchesyoutube]

I'm not crying... You're crying..
Who had the nerve to start cutting onions when I was watching this?

[RyanJohnson-tkhy]

Seriously???!!! This came out 2 years ago and I'm just finding this now??!! This needs to be turned into a Broadway musical. This was absolutely beautiful!! This was magic. 😍😍😍

[skaughtsman]

The world needs a full-length version of 'If You Just Believe' by these people!

[Hoboelmo]

Polar Express is my favorite movie to watch on Christmas Eve.

[nellytchilingirova]

O….this fantastic Songs ….stay Very deep in my memories and keep my heart with Christmas Spirt.
I had learn the songs from my grandsons in Colorado .Today I am in Europe and still not only enjoy, but cry from joy and hope that soon I will see them all . God bless you .

[codyphillips]

SUPER obsessed with this video. So much Christmas magic packed into 4 minutes! Makes me so proud to be a Vocal Point alumnus!!

[systemshocker]

Why do I feel there should be a live action Polar Express with this cast?

[djslayr]

I swear if they did a live action Polar Express movie they better cast you guys as the main actors 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[tamithompson]

This beautiful video left me in tears----there is nothing we need more now than to BELIEVE!!! Thank you for this ! Thank you VOCAL POINT and RISE UP for helping me BELIEVE again!
