  • They played this at my grandmothers funeral along with alot of other touching songs. Her death was a big surprise to all my family and to whoever knew this, I want to thank everyone I know for being so supportive since her death. We all have to take our crosses, Jesus died for us which was one of the biggest sacrafices, we can take our little crosses every day, and we'll get to heaven to someday, Jesus is always with you. God Bless you all. And please let me know who cares.

  • I love this.....who sings this version

  • questa interpretazione si che è una meraviglia, un vero capolavoro, unico commento: stupendo

  • Beautiful! I just wish I knew who is singing this version??? :)

  • “Mercy, peace and love be yours in abundance.”

    (Jude 1:2 NIV)

  • taip dekojame taiko karalienei

  • jezus yra mesijas musu isgelbetojas

  • listen to the words and actually think about it.. we should all be willing to bring jesus praise <3

  • @ThatSoPho it sounds like Greensleeves because they are pretty much the same.... except for a few things. :)

  • @Izabell622

    By "a few things" do you mean the lyrics? They are the same tune.

  • thank you need this today! I did a thing I didn't want to have to do but got Jesus carrying through this one. Happy Birthday to Jesus

  • i dont know why, but this song makes me sad! :(

  • I'm an aithiest, but this song... I like...

  • this is my fav song!!!

  • why does it sound like greensleves

  • Is it just me or are the actual Christmas songs, the songs that talk about the true meaning of Christmas as in Jesus, way prettier than the ones who talk of Santa?

  • this song has been stuck in my head for like 3 days!

  • beautiful......

  • I am loving this persons voice on this song

  • Atheist, Christian, Hindu, Buddhist, Islamic, shut the hell up and listen to this masterpiece of music.

  • @K4inan besides u dont have to believe its true. Nobody is forcing you to. Its your desicion to make. But please in the future keep your opinions to yourself.

  • @K4inan honestly why dont you keep your opinions to yourself. One day your really gonna tick someone off by saying things like that and your gonna get your ass kicked.

  • Im playing this song for band there are six of us in the clarinet section, theres three parts and for some reason there is three on first two on third and only one of me on second.

  • @K4inan No, they do exist. Jesus Christ is our Savior. He died for your my sins, and yours. And He will ALWAYS love you, whether you choose to accept Him or not.

  • ...I prefer the jingle cats version.

  • I play this for band!!! It sounds good I play the flute and we have solos alot :)

  • Who is singing this

  • @blusoul2 Mitch Fewell

  • When I was little, I used to hear this song a lot for Christmas, while we were putting our tree up for decoration.

  • Kαλα Χριστουγεννα..

  • This is incredible, your voice is PERFECT! No better way than this to thank God for it :)

  • Im learning to play this on piano i only looked it up to know what it was suppose to sound like. beautiful song im not religious though..

  • singing this 4 the christmas pageant.

  • When the music's bath cruncher!

  • Comment removed

  • this is the most beautiful version of this song

  • I'm atheist, but one thing that religion does do well, is music. Not so much the words, but the harmony.

  • @phils920 The words are beautiful too. It's not all about magic and mysticism. It's symbolic. The universe is beautiful, there is hope for humanity. There are many different ways to interpret texts often seen as religious.

  • Search for "Sissel What Child Is This" She has a very moving versjon of this song

  • Great version of this song. My school's choir is singing this song along with God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen and Deck The Halls.

  • @Chemtownshorts we r singing god rest ye mary gentle man and this song :D i like god rest....:)

  • @K4inan Too bad your knowledge of proper grammar has never existed.

  • @Gaaminator I missed the space bar :( all Christians are pretty stupid, you believe in something because a book says it's true.. How stupid isn't that?

  • @K4inan a book says it's true? you're pathetic.

  • @ionututut if you studied it you would eventually find that the book proves itself true. do some research. i could say something like you have no reason to live and your pathetic. but thats not the case. i get that your mad, but if you want to know some reasons to believe there is purpose you should message me. but don't step on peoples faith, its just wrong.

  • @K4inan We believe in something because we have faith in what the bible tells us. No one comments on ur inability to believe or have faith in something, so dont disrespect our religion. Kthxbye.

  • @k4inan with you whole heartedly ^^ but I do like the song

  • Comment removed

  • @K4inan Jesus and God love u. they do exist, and even tho i dnt kno u, i will pray for u. i hope u become a Christian soon :(

  • @mchltaylor712 I have people who love me, why would I need an evil god who haven't done shit for the world, to love me? ''God loves you'' how interesting roflmao. The only reason you believe in Christianity, is because of the heaven part. You don't want to die and accept that there is nothing after death, you want to live in heaven.. Grow up please.

  • @K4inan Just wondering, why are you on this page?

  • @K4inan How do you know what we believe in and what we hope for as Christians? I can tell that you aren;t one at this point and I will pray for you for that, but don't start throwing out facts on a subject you have little to no knowledge of.

  • @K4inan I don't think that what you said represents Christians, that is, followers of Jesus. The reason I believe in Jesus Christ is not because I want to go to heaven. I believe in Jesus Christ because I have heard of his miracles and believed. I've seen first hand how he can change lives. And I've experienced it. I was clinically depressed and had an anxiety disorder that made me have panic attacks. Jesus healed me. He also saved my soul. Now I take up my cross and FOLLOW him daily.readdabible

  • @k4inan no, whats a shame is the fact that if us Christians are right (which we are because we have experienced Jesus first hand) then you guys are going to have a rough time when this lifes over, but were praying for you

  • سم الله الرحمان الرحيم

    قل هو الله احد الله الصمد لم يلد ولم يولد ولم يكن له كفوا احد

    صدق الله العظيم

  • i like listening to this any time of the year.

  • i  love this alot thank you

  • Its Beutiful, Amen.

    

  • isnt this greensleves????????

  • @99krispin "Greensleeves" and "What Child is This" has the same tune. In a lot of sheet music books, "Greensleeves" will have "What Child is This" in parentheses.

  • im not atall religious but i really like this, probably cause the singer is so talented

  • @Asending check out greensleeves! same music

  • @Asending Knowing Jesus Christ as your savior isn't about religion, it's a relationship.

  • Very Nice song, very inspiring! Our God is King of Kings!

  • May god bless us all.

  • This is has the same beat as greensleves

  • @ajaxthedog1 its based off greensleves

  • Nails, spear shall pierce Him through

    The cross He borne for me, for you

    Hail, hail the Word made flesh

    The Babe, The Son of Mary

  • Greensleeves

  • Jesus:)

  • I played this on the Clarinet in my church's band this Christmas, it sounded awesome!

  • @Zeldarulah this is just wrong, how can God be sexy? Sorry im just curious. Explain

  • @Zeldarulah P.S. I am not trying to judge you or anything like that. It's just I just can't see him dating anyone

    he is beyond women and everyone for that matter.

  • a great KISS song. Gene Simmons sings this awesome. This was on Gene simmons solo album in the late 70's

  • Thank You...beautiful....AF

  • This music is beautiful! OMG!

  • This version gives me goosebumps.

  • @floopile It is certainly disliked. Personally I dont like the person's voice, but I know pople who dislikes Christmas carols in general.

  • Who is Singing?? Please Someone!! =)

  • @RiPcOrDz83 Mitch Fewell

  • That's an excellent comment, how could you dislike this?? 

  • in regards to hailing Mary: Hail does not mean to worship, "Hail" is used as a greeting or to attract attention. It is mean to echo the Archangel Gabriel's first words to Mary "Hail, Full of Grace, The Lord is with You." So every time someone recites the Hail Mary or venerates Mary, it is not idolatry, it is simply honoring Mary as an example of how we should all be.

    At any rate, this is a christmas song, let everyone feel the love and joy.

  • CHRIST THE KING!

  • Hail Mary, Christ is Risen!

  • @Loiginer why hail an idol?

  • @HolyGhostManiac She's not an idol. Who are you to call Mary an idol. The bible says "Hail Mary, full of grace, the lord with thee....". I don't know which religion you are but all Christians were Catholic before the 1600's and we all read one bible (not a version of it). That means the first 1500 years after Jesus died we were all Catholic. Peter was the first pope.

  • @bradley95257 well it says in exodus 20, i believe, about worshiping idols....the catholic bible has other books added to the original bible...yes Mary was mother of Jesus, she is holy, but she is not to be exalted. i am not saying that your going to hell for it, but i am saying that it is a wrong choice to worship her....and where does it say in the bible that you have to pray to a saint to pray to god? have communion one on one with god, not through a saint.

  • @HolyGhostManiac To Hail is not worshiping. Look it up and you'll find the meaning. There are several meanings. Read the Gospel of Luke (both the King James Version and the Catholic). I believe one says Hail and the other has replaced the word with Rejoice (probably the true meaning of Hail). Oh, I am not Catholic or any other named religion. My mom's family was Catholic and my father's family was Baptist. I grew up with neither. I am just a Christian who loves to learn the history of the bible.

  • @bradley95257 i know its not, but most people do worship her.

  • @HolyGhostManiac not worship. probably honor. She was chosen.

  • @bradley95257 well you gotta admit some people worship her....and earlier i did not mean to call mary a idol, just some people have her as their idol

  • @HolyGhostManiac it may appear that way. I read the traditional (Catholic) prayers called Apostles' Creed and Hail Mary and I don't see any worship to her. One does ask her to pray for us. We have to remember that only God can judge us.

  • @bradley95257 you are right about only God judging us. Why do people pray to someone else when you can very well pray to the God yourself? you do not need to pray through someone to pray to God, you are just praying to Mary.

  • @HolyGhostManiac Please answer this as I am a Jew and do not pray through mediators (though I love this song). Why do Christians feel that they need Jesus to pray to G-d? I want to understand this.

  • @LoverofSolomon

    Bless you brother; to answer your question (Christians) believe that Jesus was the sacrifice who's blood fulfilled the (Old Testement) requirement of blood/sacrifice for forgiveness of sins. Where in the Old Testement one would bring a sacrifice to the Priest (Leviticus 14:19) for attonement, we Christians believe that Jesus was/is the living sacrifice. He is our High Priest who was/is also the sacrifice when we pray in his name (Hebrews 10:10). God bless!

  • @LoverofSolomon

  • @unifiedoutreach thanks for explaining.

  • @LoverofSolomon They believe that because that is what they are told. The first person who said it I'm sure said it because he believed G-d had told him to say it.

  • @bradley95257 you are right about only God judges us. i believe that it is foolish to pray through someone to pray to God, when you can talk to him by your self. remember the veil was torn, we don't need and interceder, we can go straight in to the holy of holies. we can be right with him and talk right to him any time we feel like it and we don't need to pray to Mary when he is right here with us.

  • @HolyGhostManiac Do you pray through Jesus to pray to God? That's something I have been trying to understand my whole life. I can't believe they are one in the same. God said Jesus was his son but we are all his children. It's confusing. I think Muslim's believes Jesus was a prophet instead of 'son of God'. The only thing I know is that Christians, Jews and Muslims all believe in the same one God. When I say something it doesn't mean I totally believe it. I have an open mind and not brainwashed.

  • @bradley95257 you are wrong brother, we the cristians, catholics to be specific, pray to the Father in the name of the Son, under action of the Holy Spirit, Mary and the rest of Saints and the Angels pray with us like the rest of members of Church, (have you even pray for a friend? so you are intercedering), but they are in Heaven without sins they are more close to God, when we call to Jesus Christ the mediator between God and people is because He is God and Men, and He save us

  • @patillas198623 Ok. I am a Christian and I forget some things when I think too much. Merry Christmas

  • Poor.

  • ...Who laid to rest on Mary`s lap is Sleeping?

  • @DavidEppursimuove You are hearing/reading it wrong, this is how it's written: "What child is this who, laid to rest on Mary's lap, is sleeping?". NOT: " What child is this who laid to rest on Mary's lap is sleeping."

  • beautiful!!

  • I love to play this on my Guitar, this song is pretty.

  • Is there a way to burn this to disk? I would love to play for my students but youtube is blocked at school.

  • @eve160450 check the link in the description

  • @eve160450 You can use Keepvid.com. I think you have to download the software for it but it converts the video from youtube to a file that you have on your computer

  • Great. More electronically pitch-corrected crap. Try singing this one without the help of a computer, then we'll talk about "beauty.'

  • @cinenutz

    dud.. i know this guy very well.. and he doesnt use pitch correction.. actually the best singer ive ever heard. pshhh keyboard warrior

  • I don't like the whole "x"mas thing, I kinda think since it's a Christian holiday you should at least respect where it came from

    I mean it's kinda like celbrating Hanukkah just for 8 days of gifts, or having a barmitzva just for a big party

    It just seems to me that if youre not Christian you shouldn't celebrate christmas

  • @ch33s3ypwnr You are aware that "Xmas" means the same thing, right? It's nothing other than an abbreviation of Christmas with with the same meaning.

    From Wiki: The "-mas" part is from the Latin-derived Old English word for "mass", while the "X" comes from the Greek letter Chi, which is the first letter of the Greek word Χριστός, translated as "Christ".

  • @ch33s3ypwnr i agree dude...

  • @ch33s3ypwnr The bible says Christians are supposed to win people to Christ to save souls. What does it hurt if non-Christians also celebrate the birth of Christ? If anything, it may help win more people over. If you scream at them for celebrating Christmas, you may turn them away. Matthew 28:19

  • @MisterBelvedere Amen... you're actually right... if we get angry at hypocrisy, when it actually doesn't recognize itself, we make ourselves hypocrites too... this is a time when we can freely sing Christmas (Christian) songs and share about the real Jesus so much more freely!

  • @ch33s3ypwnr

    Xmas isn't an attempt to secularise Christmas and has nothing to do with atheism. The X is short for Christ (from the Latin for Christ). Similarly, 'Happy Holidays' (meaning both Christmas and New Year's) has been in use for a long time and is very Christian in origin.

  • @wight1984 I heard the X was short for Christ in Greek.

  • Gene Simmons wouldn't be singing this because he's Jewish and you should never forget that as nice as they may seem they don't believe in Jesus. So to Jews, Christ's suffering was all in vain. That includes Gene Simmons.

  • Hey MERRY XMAS :) i love christmas songs. i've just uploaded a christmas song that i sang on my channel. let me know what you think :) great video by the way

  • how is it possible to "dislike" Chrstimas songs?

  • @Ringlord3434 Not sure if it's 'dislike'. More like, 'MisCLICKED'

  • @Ringlord3434

    Radical Muslims. 'Nuff said.

  • @coreybush11

    hahaha

    shoulda known

  • @Ringlord3434 its possible.

  • @Ringlord3434 If it's poorly written and performed I would dislike a Christmas song. Also one could disagree with the message.

  • @Ringlord3434 This isn't just a Christmas song. This is a Salvation song!

  • @Ringlord3434

    May the lord bless them 

  • LOVE IT!

    MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

    I LOVE YOU BABY JESUS!

    PROTECT MY FAMILY LORD OF MERCY AND OF LOVE!

  • beautiful!!

  • IT'S THAT TRUE, THAT HENRY VIII WAS THE AUTOR OF THIS SONG?

  • nice, its green sleeves *--*

  • @hogai95 idiot, if you took time to search it up, then you would know that greensleeves was an alternative version. nice comment wise guy -_-

  • @ninjaquesorox you know, you don't have to be rude. its true, the melody of this song is the same as greensleeves but just becuz not everyone knows that greensleeves is an "alternative version" doesn't make them an idiot.

  • @PandaChan09 still, stupid comments like that just piss me off. if you're not gonna think before commenting, then dont comment at all. i looked it up when i heard this, because i agree, it sounds similar. it said that greensleeves is an alternative version of the song. im calling him an idiot because he didnt think before commenting.

  • @ninjaquesorox i didn't say that green sleeves came first than what child is this smart ass ¬¬

  • @ninjaquesorox 1865 was when the lyrics to this song were published, while greensleeves is medieval.

  • Beautiful! Wonderful singing. I'm impressed! The pictures are great too.

  • Very nice. I want to know the name of the person singing.

  • @highlands224

    Me, Mitch Fewell. 

  • :) love itt(:

  • probably the best carol.

  • beautiful song 

  • love this song

  • beautiful!

  • Who is singing? you are very gifted whoever you are.

    I wrote more verses to this song and would want the person singing this to try my new verses.
