- CD available at www.donfrancisc.... A beautiful, astonishing rendition by 3 guitarists, Don Francisco, Wendy Francisco, and Jerry Palmer. From the album, "Christmas Carols on Guitar". Film by Jacob Brooks.
Sometimes i'm coming here and listening this masterpiece quietly and leaving peacefully. This is my resting place in the chaos of life.
Thank you ! Really appreciate it !!!
The very best is offered by this beautiful trio
Lots so sad sometimes in life when always feel bad energy from the one that’s suppose to cherish you and care about you and all it looks like is murky water but you know when you rest your hope in Jesus and and the second coming of god or being human it helps and I don’t know this game of life but it feels like an end time life judgement day sometimes I feel like I’m dead and sometimes I know I’m only human
i am glad we don’t live in a world where it’s always winter but never Christmas. Happy Birthday Jesus.

This song wasn't for Jesus. It was for a broken, confused world.
Beautiful himn God bless you all!
I am very picky about this song. This version is a masterpiece! Lovely! Thank you! Merry Christmas to you all!
YES... This is one of the great ones.
Every year I come back to listening to this version at this time of the year... Never get sick of it...
I heard only the first few seconds and called my family in to watch and listen. As the tears streamed down my face I listened to a song that always touches my heart by people who always touch my heart set in the countryside that always touches my heart. God loves us so much. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
i happened to hear this accidentally while studying in a university in Nova Scotia, Canada during fall season in 2014 close to midnight and was transported to another realm , honestly i have not listened to this kind of playing and whenever i listen to this piece i would be surrounded by the cold weather of Canada, the stillness of night and this lovely playing amidst total silence here in India. I would play this as a background and play violin with it and it would be amazing to Hear. MAy Our Lord Jesus Christ Bless all of you who made it possible for us to hear this dedicated performance.
Don Francisco is one of my favorites Christian musicians. I saw him about half a dozen times baxk in the 80s and unlike other Christian singers pf the period all his concerts were free.
This is the most beautiful "What child is this" guitar version I've ever heard! There are NO words to describe their talent with these instruments! It's so soothing and angelic, I'm blown away! I can literally listen to this every single day and never get tired of it! Thank you Don, Wendy, and Jerry! You guys are beyond amazing! 💖💖💖
Yes, God over government would be the finest world possible. Fit for this beautiful guitar ensemble. Thank you for this precious music.
@@ilovemylifeyay thank you for your enlightened comment. Of course, I had no idea that creative gifts come from God. Seems there are always.people who have to add to.or correct an innocent but perhaps incomplete comment.
@@christinechandler1662too true. People like them think God is vulnerable to flattery and groveling.
This video is a piece of art.. Needs to be recommended much more..

Thanks so much !!!!!!
I wish I was there. So beautiful and anointed worship to the King.
Well, now...I have never heard Don Francisco play like that. I just know him for his long, narrative song stories. Love it!!
Thank you Don,Wendy,and Jerry for that gorgeous heavenly piece of music... May God bless all of you with love and abundance...
One of the of the wonder moments given us in life
Really moved me in a quiet spiritual way so non-traditional to noisy holiday distractions, loved the setting outdoors and of course the horses, just perfect in the moment and fine musicians.
Years, years ago, I listened to a lot of Don Francisco music and now I come across this song. A lovely surprise!
First heard "He's Alive" from a friend while in college. I was starting to get skeptical, but this beautiful music from Don convinced me not to give up my faith, just the particular church I felt abused by when I was younger. I started going to a different church and everything got better, especially my faith in God.
So happy that you found your core again. Many blessings be.
Virginia Connor I’m glad you found another church. We are looking for a new church ourselves.
Always amazing that the ignorance of man drives so many from the divine. People in families or churches seem to cause so much heart ache!
@@poppylove3673 I was Lutheran and it wasn't being that which made me mad. The church-like many in the NCC--was getting too liberal and my mother joined me later in the church I found peace. My father died before he could transfer himself. I was more angry that I was treated like I was mentally retarded by a no.of the parish despite the fact that I was going to Dekalb college then. I had too many comment they thought teaching nursery " might be too hard for me" and "I've got a class you'll just be in love with. Kevin just loves it." I asked the pastor; he admitted it was a special ed. class for his nephew who had Down Syndrome. I asked if I could teach it since I was going to majour in it at NGC soon and had already been accepted. "We already have 1 teacher for 2 students." I asked who the other student was. "You.". Apparently, he didn't believe me or my parents. I soon left as there were h.s.students who jeered at me-and Kevin-and the parents were no better. I was soon close to feeling that my professors were right til I made friends in my classes and someone invited me to the Newman Family, the Catholic --org.off-- campus. Not all my friends were Catholic; some were BSU or Wesley. They introduced me to Don McLean and I met a guy who introduced me to an Anglican Protestant Church and then transferred to St.Barnabas in Dunwoody. It was a wonderful change for me. While I didn't get to graduate in teaching, I did get a BA in Art at GSU after my dad died. That was the happiest day God gave me- 6/13/87. He's Alive!
I feel..soooo at peace listening to this. Stunningly beautiful ..must be inspired by the angels.
Beautiful, peaceful, serene. I got a small medieval vibe from this.
Beautiful!
Wow! This is guitar playing for me. Soul food.
WONDERFUL!!! ANOINTED! anyone saying different is obviously unaware what a pearl is.
This song, so exquisitely played here, always reminds me of the magical wetlands of the Willamette Valley. God works in mysterious ways, as they say. These were the beautiful memories of a childhood I otherwise would have been lost in. Thank you for the rendering which is like drinking of peace and God's infinite love.
Incredible.
A beautiful song. I remember that I played this song with my teacher and classmate when I was only 9 years old. I won't forget that day, that was a beautiful presentation.
Now, 6 years later, I want to repeat that moment, I would play this song again with them.
“WHAT CHILD IS THIS? (GREENSLEEVES)” LYRICS
1. What child is this, who, laid to rest,
On Mary’s lap is sleeping,
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping?
This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing;
Haste, haste to bring Him laud,
The babe, the son of Mary!
2. Why lies He in such mean estate
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Good Christian, fear: for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading.
Nails, spear shall pierce him through,
The Cross be borne for me, for you;
Hail, hail the Word Made Flesh,
The babe, the son of Mary!
3. So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh;
Come, peasant, king, to own Him!
The King of Kings salvation brings;
Let loving hearts enthrone Him!
Raise, raise the song on high!
The virgin sings her lullaby.
Joy! joy! for Christ is born,
The babe, the son of Mary!
Thank you for the lyrics! 💖 ♫͡° ͜ʖ ͡°♪
No words. "Breathtaking" is as close as I can get.
I can smell the pinion and spruce .I can imagine ristras hung and the cold of the evening that is only felt in southwest .thank you for such a lovely blessed tune .
Probably the most beautiful music video I’ve ever played. Thanks!
Wow! I can’t believe my ears this is so beautiful. More of this, please!
There is something about this song that draws me to it, and this rendition is the most beautiful I've ever heard. As one guitar player to another, well played!
This is simply . . . WOW . . . Thank you for this amazing version of Greensleevws. This is probably my most favorite version ❤🙏
WENDY, JOHN AND JERRY ONE OF THE BEST RENDITIONS OF GREENSLEEVES /WHAT CHILD IS THIS!! AS A CHILD HEARING THIS AS "WHAT CHILD".... MADE ME CRY, IN A GOOD WAY! AS AN ADULT HEADING AS "GREENSLEEVES" GIVES ME GOOSE BUMPS! MY LATE HUSBAND PLAYED GUITAR N HE'D LEARN A SONG IN 10-20 MIN FOR ME! THANKS FOR THE MEMORY THO HE WAS ONE PERSON PLAYING WHEN I CLOSED MY EYES I SEE HIM AGAIN-- KEEP PLAYING AND TAKE CARE OF EACHOTHER!!!!
Thank you so much Gina !!!!
I struggled to keep my emotions in check as I usually do with this kind of music. When I saw the black horse looking on and then blink, (2:50) the waterworks opened up!
Beautiful music. Excellent production. Outstanding musicians.
Merry Christmas to all!
Beautiful! I also remember Don's music and "He's Alive!" It is one of the most stirring songs and soul moving. I could visualize Jesus rising and those around being so brought to the realization that everything He had told them was true! I still feel that movement when I hear the song and am thankful that Jesus Christ is my savior and for what He did for me on the cross!
God bless you always, I got saved 26 years ago from addiction, Paul p Birmingham England 🤠🇬🇧🇺🇸🌹✌👍
@Terry Eugene thanks brother I'm helping others now been saved and sober 26 years praise God from whom all blessings flow ❤🙏🙏🇬🇧🇺🇸
A new favorite this Christmas! Had a daughter moving out today, it kind of catches those feelings too.
Now this, is a Christmas song
Beautiful Greensleeves... So sad... Thank you
What a great performance!!!
Cant thank you enough for this masterpiece.
Lots lots lots of love from India.
God bless you all and your families.
Music is the universal language that speaks to every heart.
Love this and still loving your sincere heart and love for Jesus! You have been a blessing to me since I was a teenager! I still listen to all your anointed songs on c d 's in my home and car. I have grown older, but not in spirit or soul, for a good anointed song, like the Christmas carols you play. God bless, and I pray all Gods best, for helping me understand Jesus more, down through the years, as Ihave been so touched by your songs for a long time! He is Alive!!!!
The best version I've heard.
I really really love it!
Just found your music - love the guitar work ; chemistry is spot on ! thanks for sharing !!!!
Wow!! My husband and I were blown away! He's been playing this carol on his guitar for years and has never heard it done so beautifully. Heavenly...going to see how to order the CD, now. Jacob's filming is unbelievable, too! Your family are all so gifted by God. Thank you for blessing us so.

Está canción para mí es muy especial, cuando pequeño tenía un piano eléctrico el cual tenía esa y varias canciones para aprender a tocarlas, fue mi primer tema que aprendí, al día de hoy también toco guitarra y hace muchos años que no oía y veía este vídeo, muy bueno me trajo muchos recuerdos, gracias por ello, me encantaría que existiese una tablatura de las 3 guitarras, me las aprendería de memoria jajaja muy bueno
