It became famous when Lauryn Hill sang it in the 1993 film Sister Act 2.

The song itself is truly beautiful, and it would be absolutely cool to perform this hymn in a choir.

The chorus has a hip-hop flavor, and the most challenging part will require a lot of practice with the English, but the rest seems fairly singable.
