Whenever I need strength or calmed I listen to this choir and find my footing again. It has taken away many a worry as it teaches me to turn to the Savior.

I grew up singing this in England as a child. Our Head Mistress would even have a kettle whistling for the 'wind'! :) Good memories.

I found this song watching The Crown. It really needs to be a larger part of the USA's Christmas Carol repertoire.

"What can I give him, poor as I am?...Give my heart." Gustov Mahler wrote this, and as an old man, I still get teary-eyes at this part (last verse). This is a stunning arrangement by Mack Wilberg, whom I consider a genius in his arrangements.

Thank you for identifying the composer. I’ve been wondering who it was.

I know this is two years late but Gustav wrote the music but the words were by poet Christina Rossetti. It was put music after her death

I heard this song, sung by a woman in our ward, for the first time this last Christmas season. It has become one of my favorites for its very intimate lyric and soothing melody. It takes me to kneeling before my Lord and pleading for forgiveness. The song is truly a PRAYER !

One of the most beautiful choral pieces I have ever heard. Fondly remember this piece from high school concert choir and Chancel Choir. You are so right Bill, slowing tempos are challenging but we had it down pat! This is how perceive the sounds of heaven! Merry Christmas everyone!

This Christmas Carol by Gustav Holst is my all time favorite Christmas "gift". I sang it for the first time about 40 years ago with my college choir. Always stays refreshing!

The arrangement of this song enhances the beauty and its words. The chord progression takes you on the meaning of those words.

Arrangements like these are very challenging. Slow tempos require so much discipline in breathing and holding out notes. When executed as well as this, it makes the whole experience exquisite. Well done!

It is not at all necessary to be a religious person to recognize this song of Gustav Holst as spiritually inspiring. Thank you for this glorious performance, MTC !

In the bleak midwinter, frost wind made moan, Earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone; Snow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow, In the bleak midwinter, long ago. Our God, heaven cannot hold him, nor earth sustain; Heaven and earth shall flee away when he comes to reign. In the bleak midwinter a stable place sufficed The Lord God Almighty, Jesus Christ. Angels and archangels may have gathered there, Cherubim and seraphim thronged the air; But his mother only, in her maiden bliss, Worshiped the beloved with a kiss. What can I give him, poor as I am? If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb; If I were a Wise Man, I would do my part; Yet what I can I give him, give my heart.

Mac Wilberg is a genius! His background music of "O, Little Town of Bethlehem" set against David McCullough's narration of American Christmas music is heavenly.
