Ladies and Gentlemen....David Phelps. I've been a professional musician for over 35 years and this is hands down the greatest male tenor I've ever heard. His renditions of O Holy Night and The Lords Prayer are nothing short of master classes on vocal performance!

[@spoosh7751]

@Faith Johnston now that would be an amazing combination 😍

[@loririchards2602]

Same here, 40 years, and I totally agree.

[@loririchards2602]

Sorry, but Mitch doesn't have near the passion and maturity in his voice and stage presence that David Phelps does. Technically there is no competition. David wins by a mile

[@bobsmith814]

I am a 63-year old tenor with church, choral experiences and soloist. Until 2008 -- I thought of only the operatic singers as great tenors -- but when David Phelps was introduced as the new tenor for the Gaithers -- my mind has been changed FOREVER! He is the greatest tenor to ever sing!! God-like voice, angelic tones and he sings each song with feeling, passion and belief in each of its words! Thank you God for David Phelps!!!

[@julianokleby1448]

So does his daughter! She is an amazing soprano, no doubt trained by David! Talent runs in the Phelps family! His son plays guitar and accompanies him sometimes too. They are all incredible!

[@AliceNaquin]

I agree 100%

[@catherinemccaffrey1550]

Soon to be 54 in a few weeks. I live alone with Christ. I have been alone for some years now. I lost my youngest daughter at 20 to a very bad car wreck and my other children need to find our Savior fortheir sake. I have not seen them three in over two years. It's going on four years singer the lost of their baby sister. So when I say I'm all alone only through Christ that's no lie. I feel he's all I've got and it's hard but with the ANGELS singing and praising ourChrist it's getting me through. Bless each and everyone. Happy holidays and happy healthy New year.

I challenge Mr David Foster to invite Mr David Phelps to perform this song in one of his shows.

[@TheKnowledgeRoomChannel]

In my humble estimation, David Phelps stands as a paramount tenor of our era, transcending not only the realm of gospel vocalists but also outshining all current solo performers.

[@pr-fe]

That was a high D, by the way. He hasn’t done one of those in studio since The Voice album. So amazing that he did that again for us on this piece.

[@footprintsandshadows2024]

David is amazingly the greatest tenor of all time. There a lot of tenors out there but not one of them can sing as David does be it theatrical, gospel, pop etc name it. He changes the song for the better. Let's all be thankful we can hear him sing in this lifetime. Peace yow
