A 2-year-old toddler from Atlanta blew her church congregation away with her beautiful singing voice at a recent church service.
Remember the name Ariana Allen. This little girl’s got talent and will surely be doing some amazing things in the coming years! Maybe signing record deals by the time she’s in kindergarten.
The video was uploaded to Facebook by her proud dad, Marcus D. Allen.
“Singing is in her genes! Listen in! This will bless you!” – video caption
Crouching down and holding the microphone up for his daughter, he helps encourage her through the song “Jesus Loves Me” while someone captures it on camera. She’s wearing her Sunday best in an adorable blue dress and white cardigan.
She’s so musically inclined that she can sing and play the tambourine along to the beat. I don’t think many people are that co-ordinated at such a young age. Many are not even that co-ordinated as adults!
The video has gone viral and reached more than one million views between the original Facebook post and YouTube.
It’s been shared at least 30,ooo times – people love to spread the joy!
The viewers that know little Ariana all agree that singing is in her genes, and even viewers who have never met her are sending love and encouragement her way.
Presumably many of the commenters here are members of the same church in Atlanta, and know Ariana and her family.
Many viewers recognize her musical talent, and everyone is living for the vibrato she adds at the end of the song.
The church goers all go wild, clapping and laughing at the end of her song as she sings Christina Aguilera style, and high fives her dad.
The audience is blown away by her performance, and you can tell this little girl was made for the limelight.
Her father, Marcus, is quite the man of faith and talented singer himself. His most recent Facebook posting before uploading the video of his adorable daughter, is a video of him singing “I Will Trust in the Lord” in his car.
“Inspite of what you can’t see, continue to trust God!!!” – video caption
It is clear that talent certainly runs in the family!
And how beautiful that he’s sharing his talent and encouraging his daughter to tap into her musical side at such a young age.
YouTube viewers fell in love with the video too, and can see Ariana Allen’s potential to become a big star.
Ariana Grande, look out girl!
Hozier, there’s someone new who’s taking us to church.
“Jesus Loves Me” has been a popular Christian hymn since the 1800s. The lyrics were first written as a poem but a tune and chorus were later added, and it is now sung all over the world.
It’s one of the most well-known songs in the world, and certainly the first one most children learn at church.
This heartwarming video goes to show it’s never too early to start performing, and goes to show how uplifting music is for the soul.
Keep your eyes peeled for this talented little girl in the coming years!
