Truly one of the BEST modern Christmas Carols, and one of my all time faves. This carol was written by Mark Lowry. Here he is singing the song as he envisioned it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXmfkFoX-PE Back-up is the Gaither Vocal Band.

Hey, speaking of good music, this Lamanite stuff is pretty good. (I even have a crush on that Lamanite woman singing in the video - Malukah, daughter of Do-vah-kiin).

Of course, the pure simplicity of a traditional LDS Spiritual number is alway great:

That was spectacular. That must be the very song that the passengers on the Good Ship Nephi sang after running aground on the shores of Chile, or was that San Diego, or maybe it was the Oregon coast!
