The Webb Sisters - If It Be Your Will (Live in London) ft. Leonard Cohen

Who all are hearing this masterpiece in 2024? 🤗🤗

I heard him first when I was only 16. He changed my life. I will be 70 soon, and still love his words, his music and his heart.

I'm 75 and ashamed to say I only discovered this wonderful man five years ago.His music his words touch my inner spirituality like no other.Thankyou.x

I love how his genius allows the beauty of the sisters to shine, yet we all are aware of this mans genius, musical generosity and deep humanity. I adore him. I miss him and am greatful for him. What a spiritual genius

My heart aches for all those who never discovered Leonard Cohen either on purpose or accidentally. My heart aches to know that years from now someone will hear this song in its entirety and ask who was Leonard Cohen... how can you explain the raw honesty and complexity that was Leonard Cohen??? Another shooting star to split the sky in my lifetime and leave too soon.. I love you... Leonard Cohen .. thank you

A broken man, with a broken heart speaking from his broken soul, in a broken voice. Haunting and sublime. I was lucky enough to attend a live concert, graced with his presence. One of the most memorable experience of my life. Thank you for giving us all those beautiful songs. RIP Mr. Cohen, hope that one day I"ll join you and be in your presence again !

I don't want to give a 👍 - I want to give a thousand 💖💖💖💖💖

Leonard was Pure Gold....an angel of true love and kindness.. R.I.P..

The voice doing the first ‘whoop’ at 5’03” is me. I didn’t think I’d be able to make the concert because I had just lost my best friend a few days before - I was with her when she died so everything was still very raw. We had great seats and so I forced myself to go; I’m so glad I did. Leonard was like an Old Testament prophet who came down from the mountain to address the people (the O2 arena is just a big tent anyway).This song was near the end of the show and I wept, right from the start to finish - and then I raised my arms and cheered to say ‘thank you’. Still one of the best concerts I have ever been to and just what I needed at that time in my life. I was so chuffed to hear my cheering when I first bought the show DVD; it just reminds me of how much the song meant and still means to me.

You'd be hard pressed to find 2 beautiful angelic voices in harmony like these.

Keeps dropping my comments. I shall speak no more. Sir Leonard sings it all. He was The Poet of our generation. So grateful our current youth hear Him.

My sister loved Cohen, and she loved to dance to his songs..11 years ago she lost her battle to leucemia. She would be 60 today..😢

The Webb Sisters - the voices of angels.

The Webb sisters have the voices of Angels. I love the sound of the Irish harp. And Leonard Cohen too. Musical perfection.

The Webb Sisters are incredible and to be handed this song with their voices. A privilege to listen.

The master miss him so much thank you leonard for being with us x

My feeling is that if someone doesn’t get Leonard they are missing something in their soul.

If It Be Your Will
[Leonard Cohen]
If it be your will
That I speak no more
And my voice be still
As it was before
I will speak no more
I shall abide until
I am spoken for
If it be your will
If it be your will
That a voice be true
From this broken hill
I will sing to you
From this broken hill
All your praises they shall ring
If it be your will
To let me sing
If it be your will
If there is a choice
Let the rivers fill
Let the hills rejoice
Let your mercy spill
On all these burning hearts in hell
If it be your will
To make us well
And draw us near
And bind us tight
All your children here
In their rags of light
In our rags of light
All dressed to kill
And end this night
If it be your will
If it be your will.

I can not understand people that do not appreciate his gifts!

The show From brought me to this very touching place… this isn’t just a song, truly it’s a prayer

"The Sublime Webb Sisters"!
Indeed.

I was SO blessed to see the incomparable Mr. Cohen along with the divine Webb Sisters. A night I will never forget.

His music has always saved me .

This man makes my heart hurt and my mind just go. His music is like a powerful drug that just brings you in and won't turn you loose.

3 great poets and singers I missed live : Freddie Mercury for the party, Pavarotti for the beauty and you Leonard Cohen for the truth, but you’ll always be close to my heart, deep inside it, flowing with this erratic wounded blood ❤

I was 17, my sister was 18 and she lifted the record player arm and placed it gently on a new vinyl recording of Leonard Cohen singing Suzanne. I was captured and discomforted. The part that drilled right through me was:
"And Jesus was a sailor,
when he walked upon the water.
And he spent a long time watching
From his lonely wooden tower
And just when he knew for certain
only drowning men could see him
He said all men will be sailors then
until the sea shall free them
forsaken, almost human
he sank beneath your wisdom
like a stone."
That was close to 60 years ago and ever since, as I navigate a particularly difficult self-inflicted trial, I think (and sometimes even smile) wondering is this what it takes to bring the Ground of Being into focus? Again and again in my journey Leonard Cohen has shone a piercing uncomfortable light into the fog of my life. Thank you Leonard!

I came back to this song after listening to one of Leonard Cohen's last interviews in which he said that he never considered himself a religious man or really had any spiritual strategy. Ironic then that so many of his songs, especially this one, are bridges between the mundane and the divine.

If it be your will, That I speak no more....I will speak no more....from the broken hill....I will sing. Amen.

the last gentleman to walk the earth 💞

One of the most beautiful, yet haunting songs ever. Get chills every time.

This song moves me to tears, every single time.

I missed Leonard or maybe I wasn’t ready to receive. I fell into his music through Hallelujah which I listen to every artist that sang the song when I heard the writer of that song died . I decided to goggle this man. Iwas amazed and continue to be enthralled by his authenticity, his unique voice and his magical lyrics. I am in my mid -70’s And will enjoy swimming in his voice and lyrics. What a gift he is.

Saw him in concert twice in 2009. Was fortunate to hear this song in person. I still miss him and cry for him......he can break your heart beautifully.

I come here after watching From S01E03. To listen to this wonderful voices and try to understand the lyrics.

Tears fall Down w my face each time I hear this Magnificent song! Praise the MOST HIGH FATHER IN HEAVEN IN THE HOLY BLESSED NAME OF JESUS CHRIST!

My biggest regret: never been at your concert. You saved my heart many many times, you pointed me the light in every darkness. Thank you forever. Sara

(From) brought me here ❤️Amen

'The sublime Webb sisters.'
Leonard Cohen, from introduction of band members during this concert.
And indeed, they are sublime.

Well, yes, the sublime Webb sisters. But also, this poem/song, especially when one considers what gave it birth, touches the sublime in its profound devotion and surrender.

When I was at the lowest point in my life in the early 80's Leonard Cohen's music and poetry got me through it , he will always have a place in my heart.❤❤

I heard this masterpiece in the series called FROM and I’ve been obsessed ❤️💯

This is prayer in its most beautiful form

My favorite song. God bless you Cohen ❤ Love you everyone ❤️

My little pup is dying. I've been listening to this song to give me hope and courage.

One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.
Sublime

Leonard change best ,this song is beautiful .makes me cry

Absolutely The most beautiful harmony that I've ever heard. On replay for years now.

I heard this song from the Webb sisters on the show FROM and i had to look it up. That is how I came upon this wonderful rendition.

I cycled to Vienna from deep in Eastern Europe in the Summer of 2015 to escape the calamity of a cherished long-term relationship in its death throes. We arrived filthy and haggard. I so desperately wanted to bump into Leonard at a fountain, a square, a concert hall. I saw his face everywhere. I wanted to look him in the eye and thank him for the beautiful words he bestowed to us all throughout his career. A nice dream. Alas, all I found was a lobby with nine hundred windows and a tree where the doves go to die.

No words known to Mankind can ever do this justice, may the Beauty of Poetry go on forever..and further beyond

This is one of the most beautiful songs I ever heard. It brought tears to my eyes.

Fortunate to attend the concert of LC in the Wang Center in Boston in '09. Actually, it was much much more than a concert. It felt like a beautiful religious ceremony. To say it was remarkable would be an incredibly weak attempt. I absolutely loved the night and LC and the Webb sisters along with everyone on the stage that night provide rich tones and color to the already profound words of an absolute master of pen to paper. I knew that I was fortunate to attend such a magical night. Every time I hear Leonard Cohen I am reminded of the fact. RIP Mr. Cohen. I hope that I am good enough good graces that I will be able to confide to you how much you mean to me. If I get in, I will look for you.

I'm your brother from another mother still mourning such a loss to the world ❤

A close friend showed me this today... now I am listening to it and tears are rolling... Love you, Bettsi.

Wunderschön! Danke Webb Sisters! Danke Leonard! - Klaus -

Cohen. Always beyond brilliant. Complete poetry.

I cannot believe I lived so many years and survived without Leonard Cohen's beautiful emotional unleashing music , lyrics , and life !
But it was better late than never !
Thank you Dear Leonard. May you rest in Peace !❤️

I had the great fortune to attend the Leonard Cohen concert in Durham in November, 2009. The sublime Webb Sisters’ rendition of this song is the most beautiful sound I have ever heard in my life.

The series "From" has some very good songs and this one is one of them!
What a beautiful discovery I just made, I'm just sad not to have make it much earlier.

Pure genius Leonard Cohen. His songs resonates poetry .RIP you beautiful man

Leonard Cohen. There's nothing I can say to elevate him more; he's top. Webb Sisters, brilliant (performing near me soon, so I'll be there).

There's always been that part of people's imagination of faith of hearing angels sing on arrival at heaven they most likely sound like the webb sisters with their strings and voices

Precious, gifted man. ❤️ every song he has written.

The instrumentation, harp, guitar and organ, the voices, in such tight and clear harmony, and the depth of the lyrics.... such beauty. For me an example of how gifted artist give of their gifts

Heartbreaking singing!
R.I.P. beloved mom! 🙏

This is the first time I've heard this song. I wept from beginning to end. It so resonated with my heart! Thank you for this blessing.

Perfection....I cannot hear this too much. Between their exquisite harmony and Leonard Cohen's master words this is a masterpiece.

I was fortunate to see two of these concerts. It was a spiritual experience, cultivating emotions one will never ever forget. Such was his voice, their music and presence. One of a kind.

Thank You Webb Sisters for being part of Leonard Cohens memories. Your voices are beautiful and I love the harping v

The sublime Webb sisters ... we saw them perform this at the O2, London. L Cohen was masterful ... and now sadly missed

I totally agree. Most beautiful song from the heart that i think I've heard in 52 hrs. Helped comfort me during a hearbreaking loss. Sublime.

Ok, who just heard this song on the tv show called From on EPIX? It"s so beautiful. I want this song played at my funeral.

I feel a great intensity when I listen to this song. Thanks a lot from Germany!

Thank you, my dear friend, my beloved poet, Leonard Cohen

The greatest song ever composed. It makes me weep with shame.

ANGELS !!! So sweet and beautiful... Thank you Charlie and Hattie ! Always in our hearts ❤🙏 from FRANCE

Seen him twice, here in my home town of Manchester, UK 🇬🇧 so lucky and very thankful 🙏..

My best friend died on March 17th. I love this holiday. Unfortunately I am missing him and My Dad still.

He has been a huge influence on my life and through me on to my children but now I am facing the next stage of things and I reluctantly accept that death is going to be part of that.This is a perfect song for my time of life.

I was so blessed to see Leonard Cohen in concert twice but sadly I only discovered this If It Be Your Will in 2021 - it’s never too late of course! He was a poet: he was a singer and musician and a true gentleman. The respect he showed to all of the musicians and vocalists who performed on stage with him was unreal. I’ll never forget him. My husband who never knew his music also loved his concert.

I am blessed to have seen him 3 times live!

This is one of the most beautiful song I ever heard. Words and interpretation are deeply touching. Angel's voices indeed. What a blessing and precious gift to the world....💞🙏

Met him once on the street in Dublin, was amazed by his knowledge and oblivious love of Irish music.

your voices and sounds bring tears to my heart. thank you for sharing your incredible talent.

No words to describe this amazing performance. ❤❤❤❤❤

I’m speechless. This was my last years prayer. Leonard Cohen is my favourite poet, musician and today after my prayers harps pop up on my recommended lists. 2xs this song.

Мурашки по коже, замечательно

Few years back, preparing for a surgery where I didn’t know I would wake up from, I listened to this song on my iPod as I went through the pre surgery ritual. I would have been perfectly content if this had been the last song my ears had heard.

And this ladies & Gents!!! Are the Voices of Heaven!!!

I had the honour to see him many times in concert ♥️
A true gentleman, musician , songwriter, poet & storyteller! There will be no one ever like him 🫶🏼
To hear the Webb sisters sing this at his concert 🎶 is a sound I’ll never ever forget ♥️

i could die in this beauty, it overwhelms me

This just came to me,if it be Your Will,You Tubed it and This beautiful Song ,
Like here listen ,just how I've been feeling, but a uplifting song at such a
Perfect time ,God's timing.

Absolutely fantastic
Leonard was a true hero and gentleman
I am so glad I saw him live twice
He always called his audience 'friends'
So thank you my friend Leonard
You will never be forgotten
RIP

the voices of these women are wonderful, but Leonard's voice is something out of this world

I was fortunate to see and hear LC and his wonderful group that accompanied him for his 2009 tour. Boston Wang Center. A fantastic concert that I claim as an uplifting religious experience. I was blessed to fully appreciate the man, his music and the moment. RIP and thank you.

Saw this performed live in Las Vegas, which I think was his last US tour. It was sublime and still brings tears. RIP Mr. Cohen.

He has been used to deliver Gods message to those who seek His face and especially touching those who needs comfort and healing on their timely discovery of LC songs

28th July 2010. Leonard Cohen live in Graz, Austria. Thank God, I've been there!!!

I don't remember how and when I got introduced to Leonard Cohen but I am deeply grateful to the time, to the moment for this privilege. I wish I become even half a man Leonard Cohen was.

As a kid I always did the “yeah” at the end of every chorus😊
