I'm a pagan and personally don't believe anyone named Jesus ever even existed but I can still appreciate this song and it's beauty. This is the best version to me.
do you know if they have this on a Christmas album? We just saw them live last night with the Rock and Worship Road Show in Ft Wayne, In and they were outstanding!!! Loved how they did this song!
i cry, it is corny for some, but dear lord, i give all my heart......... i have nothing but to play my heart mom and dad and sister dear lord.....it helps.....i have nothing
This song has always been my favorite Christmas song. I 've always enjoyed Bob Seger's version. Yet there are so many artists who have covered this song, whether it be a rocker, choir, or symphony orchestra, I like all of them, but this version here by the Jars of Clay is rules. Thank you guys. Merry Christmas.
I sooooo LOVE this. I get chills watching/listning. I LOVE Christmas season, so I play this song OVER and OVER and OVER again! My favoritest drummer boy....DAN!!!!
heard this version by Jars of Clay last week on Sirius channel...Coffee House and needless to say...tremendous cover. Turned up to it's highest volume...powerful rendition...easy to see they have been honored with Grammy's.
This song has been my Favorite Christmas song my entire life! (I'm almost 50). I believe that God has endowed each of us with "Spiritual Gifts" such as musicianship...To be able to present that gift to our Lord and Savior upon His birth is a profoundly overwhelming honor! I know there is no Biblical confirmation that a little orphaned shepherd boy played for Jesus. But his gift was given purely and from his heart.
God gave Us His Only Son knowing He would be Sacrificed for our Sins.
@ByHisBlood62 - I don't think musicianship is a Spiritual Gift as they are listed in Scripture, but it is *definitely* a God-given gift to be able to write, sing and play good music :)
I always wonder that too! I think wow. Lord, all of thebeautiful music and worship that we make, sing, adn rejoice in for you. If t's this amazing here, what coul dit possibly be like in heaven!
They are AWESOME!! and they're one of my favoret bands! I don't know where this was filmed but I just love the song. It's cool where in the world can I get to see them in consert?
this is breath taking!!! an excellent entrance, very good process to a brilliant climax, perfect arpeggios and one of the best backing vocals i ever heard. When knowing that the little drummer boy was never my favourite christmas song and now i cant stop listening to it is something really impressive. And guyz, don't forget.... that tis is a LIVE performance. What else can i say!!! amazing
Can be i? I've learned to play drums im church, an i'm 12 years old...
Wow, ironic...

What is the name of that little white electronic instrument? It has different buttons for chords and you strum this electronic ribbon-like thing.

I've got a pretty good guess based on the posting YouTuber's name: Ruth Eckerd Hall, which is in Clearwater, Florida.
