Samadhanam Odhum (Ft. Cathrine Ebenesar, Keba Jeremiah, Naveen & Godwin) | Stephen Jebakumar

A simple song that has remained as a top Christmas track for over a decade now, gives a nostalgic feel as you listen to it and brings back all the Christmas season memories, the celebration, the music ,the church choir, and so on.
I’m glad that God helped me to work on this track and release this Christmas single, a song that drags us to the roots, the core centre of all our Christian values - “Birth of our Saviour Jesus Christ”.
“Behold the lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world - John 1: 29.”
May the God of love shower His best blessings onto your life as you go through this Christmas season. Have a bliss-filled Christmas!

[@baulinwp]

Exactly..!! Brother SJ’s songs always keeps the focus on Jesus..!! ♥️ It’s just like how Don Moen says.. ‘Don’t overplay your instruments.. then the listener will start focusing on your music and not Jesus thereby defeating the very purpose of the song..🤷🏽‍♂️ I know that brother SJ has ton of stuffs to showcase on this song, but he beautifully sets the limits for music so that the listener is focused on Jesus. At the same time, the song will not feel dry at any point of time. That’s one of the greatest strengths of brother SJ. 👏🏽👏🏽♥️
