    Whenever I watch someone sing about Jesus, I always hope that they believe as I do. Eternity with god. Hope to see jm there.

    Johnny Mathis and his background singers make this song an all-time exceptional rendition of WHAT. CHILD IS THIS that I have ever experienced.

    I was such a fan growing up and he was always doing so many sort of romantic fast pop songs. This one really showed his vocal strength and range. Pretty obvious to me he's probably lip-syncing but not a surprise back in those days. Sad that he had to be closeted so long but what a great singer

    This is absolutely the best version of this song for all the reasons already named in the comments! I've been listening to this Christmas album my whole life and found that his 'O Holy Night' is also the best version of that song. Just wonderful. Just wonderful. One thing I noticed is that his intros are very unique--once you've heard them you know which song is coming--and there are other artists that are using his intros. Copycats...

  • @duracurvature

    The last verse and last note are so powerful. The last note resolves the somewhat somber tone of the song and proclaims that just like the resolving of the key the song is written in, Christ has power to resolve the pain, hurt, anger snd sin that we face in our lives. Because of Him, we have hope. “The babe, the Son of Mary”

    I'm not an overall Johnny Mathis fan but this is absolute perfection---from the choir to the subtle orchestration of harp and guitar, allowing his voice to command every phrase. This is how it's done, people. Chills.

    Something set me about to listen to a multitude of versions of this song.
    So many were good and I enjoyed them thoroughly.
    Then I came to this one. My entire being stopped. I held my arms close to self, chills went up and down my legs, my eyes closed tightly and moistened.
    Listening to Mr. Mathis sing is comparable to watching one of the finest athletes that ever existed. Grace, strength, control, mastery, timing, interpretation, connection to soul. His breath control alone is magnificent to attune to. I am overwhelmed here, as my eyes remain moist.
    Love you Johnny Mathis.
