[djkoop246]

This is my absolute favorite rendition of this song - no one can sing it like David Phelps! Thank you, God for giving David such a wonderful voice and a heart to sing for you!!

[Momooistof]

Incredible!!

[daveynm]

Thank you Rickster for getting this and posting -- I bought the DVD when it came out - for you to share David's performance of this song with ... well the world ... GBY ( god bless you ) -- as quoted in 3:39 "Oh hear the angel voices" and David you are an angel with the most incredible voices ever heard.

[papaya0428]

10000% TRUE

[qwertyjuan]

You can search all around Youtube, and you won't find another rendition of this song that sounds any better than this.

[cavikon117]

de best there is

[cavikon117]

prachtig wat een stem

[djara1982]

love it

[ajjy502]

Praise God!! I love this mans voice! Never have I heard a better presentation with such feeling!!

[ericmtl]

you don't have to be a Christian to appreciate to beauty of this rendition. David can SANG and it crosses the boderies of religion. This was a HELL of a great performance. I have it on my ipod and I've been listening to it for a long time.

[betsy12452]

this reminds me of my childhood days

[Quimbulis090790]

Alright so who's ready for Christmas haha

[TheEthan1990]

it almost sounds like a saprano singing lol great job

[rifleman50cal]

takes my breath away every time i see this. I would give anything to sing like this blessed man. Praise the LORD!

[turkmysta3333]

Anthony Burger played his heart out in this song. Excellent playing !

[skylersdad100]

Totally Blows me away everytime I see this. Absolutely the best version of my favorite Christmas Song.

[ShinzoChick]

he got a little chunky!

[genesishelena]

my Lord i am waiting for you!

[wvandrews009]

i love this song so touching

[mendesnelson]

Wow, this blows my mind how GREAT it is? Never seen such a sustained level of singing excellence like that before.

[babystinky]

Elvis Presely would have loved the Gaither Gospel shows, he would have loved Phelps. Great singing David.

[stevenandcarlisa]

FANTASTIC!!!!!!  OUTSTANDING!!!!!

[MikeM383]

The most moving version you will ever hear!!

Look at his face at the end: he is emotionally drained. After seeing this video dozens of times, I still tear-up.

[Wadensten]

My heart almost stopped... that was amazing!

[fluttercrafts]

this makes me weep, every single time I hear it

[trjones77]

This fantastic rendition means so much more when it comes from a Godly guy like David who sings to praise God, and not for his own glory. His talent is just mind-bending, never have i heard a christmas carol sung with so much conviction. God bless you DP, and thank you for encouraging us with this performance!

[scrbbybubbles]

AMAZING! I love this Version!

[kaebvl2]

Totally awesome... If this doesn't give you goose bumps, something is wrong... God is so good...

[lerryzael]

A mind-blowing voice.

Absolutely breathtaking.

[bddavemci]

Absolutely Incredible! Love listening to David sing.

[HelplessAutomation]

Wow, excellent.

[jerryal01]

Love it!! :-)

[babystinky]

Greatest singing voice in the world bar none. Male voices that go that high, are always either nasal or female sounding, this guy hits the high notes but maintains a full bodied sound of unbelievable power.

[singerforlife07]

I am speechless...my words are too weak to express the emotion and the power of God that I felt listening to this rendition of O holy night. I got goosebumps and actually cried!!!!!

[jammies3]

Absolutely breathtaking!

[davidatobin]

One of the best voices in the world!

[flump64]

All, i can say is you,ll not get a better tenor, than this man WOW, he just blows me away! He is coming to Bangor Elim, i think it,s in November some time, am dying to go. All my buddies aren,t into the Gaither music. Would any-one like to go with me? Pleasssssee?

[hopehous]

I'd go with you in a heartbeat if I knew where Bangor Elim was and had a ticket! Yes - I've not heard another first tenor rival David Phelps. And thanks Rickster38 for posting this absolutely clear & beautiful view. You made it to that Gaither concert yet?? I seriously need to just get you a ticket for you and mom and just SEND you both. You're way over-due!

[Rickster38]

i seen the homecoming gang when they came to my hometown last june, Bill was sick and wasnt there. No david or mark :( but i got pics with guy,marsh and wes. they were so awesome.i need to see david live still :P

[JoelPopcountertenor]

@hopehous i like David but i honestly feel there are a lot of tenors that rival or surpass him if not in ability then in interpretation. There just isn't a market for male singers to show their chops. Luther Vandross, Mcknight, Peabo, all really don't have markets unless they do an upbeat. So there are tenors out there easily, David was given the signature to sing the notes and a venue for it. But if you listen to solo recordings even he doesn't show it and does a different genres

[iosiffff]

@JoelPopcountertenor Show me ONE MAN that can do what he does in this video and I shall take my hat off and never speak of it again. I have never EVER heard anyone do what David Phelps does.

[JoelPopcountertenor]

@iosiffff if u believe the only way music is performed is by vids and the market doesn't allow this in mainstream, there is no point in talking.When you are around music you are humbled by God who let's you know that everyone, famous or not, have gifts from Him unique to them. David is not the only person that can deliver this song and I applaud that he took a risk in singing it the way he did. I'm Filipino, so I know a lot of people that can sing this easy and higher :).Merry xmas. DP did great

[PhilosopherMystic]

Amazing voice ! Perfect voice, actually ! I'm speechless !

[HonoraryKiwi123]

SPINETINGLING!!!!!!!.i thought only one man could sing this song perfectley ,and that was Mario Lanza ,and then i find this video clip and a man called David Phelps ,Praise God he has been blessed with a golden voice

[Kristusljus]

Such a wonderful and powerful voice and an amazing performance. *goosebumps* God bless you all!

[cepiroth]

fair voice

[Tsax53]

fair? well i would have to say pretty darn awesome. this man has better pipes than 90% of singers ha.. just look at his other stuff.. god bless ya =]

[cepiroth]

it's a purposeful understatement. no need to hate

[noelm46012]

To put it all in one word, WOW!!!!

[dallyhorse]

Dude?!

I can't really believe what I just watched - did I really just see that?

[Goldbuckles]

magnificent.....thank you for sharing this beautiful arrangement with us....

[Collinfan94]

FANTASTIC!!! This has always been my favorite Christmas song, but this is now my favorite version-the tears are still rolling down my cheeks.

[reformazing]

A truly unparalleled rendition...how many guys can sing notes like that? Wow! Thanks for posting it.

[niteowl4861]

that my friends is singing!

[baadpuddytat]

this is my favorite christmas carol, and it always makes me tear up. but no version until this one has made me weep each time i heard it--and i've listened to it dozens of times. what a magnificent, emotion-filled voice. david phelps has a rare gift--and from the second verse until the end of the song is one of the most glorious vocal performances i've ever heard (he absolutely soars toward the heavens on the last chorus, especially "o hear the angel voices"). brilliant. bravo.

[jgjonezie]

RIP Anthony Burger

[MoJoPiano]

WOW! Unquestionably the BEST rendition I've EVER heard, and I've heard a BUNCH of them. Talk about God given talent. He can give your goosebumps goosebumps! Thanks Rick!

[jkminkler]

You know why David sings this song like he does????

Because he CAN!!!!

[romeoelas007]

exactly! only he can pull this particular arrangement of this classic christmas song, his singing is flawless and it fills my heart with joy and brings tears to my eyes.

[ULOOOOZER]

Looked to me as though he brought joy and worship to the vast majority in attendance. Don't ya think?

[MisterBoswell]

Just like how you and divinehumanism flock together, a couple of brokeback christians. YHVH is no more. I have spoken.

[MisterBoswell]

Please, you are grasping at straws trying to find some way to complain about something that simply can't be complained about because it is so wonderful. You are simply jealous and/or bitter. David Phelps is agreat singer in spite of his religious beliefs. I have spoken. All hail Satan.

[fluttercrafts]

I have listened to this ceaselessly over the past few days, falling madly in love, not only with his voice but with being so overcome with spirit that you fall upon your knees.

He has a gift.

[kermit64113]

as said above, a gift from God. He's got a set of lungs that is unlike any other. No right way to sing this, but this is one of the better versions. Kudos to the pianist as well.

[smm86]

Beautiful. David Phelps has a great voice. I'd like to get the christmas in the country dvd.

[stumpmtsr]

David Phelps definitely has a voice that is a gift from God. A Beautiful job on one of the most annointed Christmas songs ever.

[budwoodjr]

sounds like a lullyby instead of jubilation but sincerest form of praise - I think it should have a bit more tempo as like Mario Lanza sang it - and when I sing it at Midnight Mass.

Sincerely,

Budwoodjr

[daldridgex]

Typical wanna be singer you amatuers all are alike. Post up buddy lets hear it. Just stay in that church and leave the real singing to the pros.

[daldridgex]

Phelps is without doubt one of the greatest male voices of all time.

[kzc5z0]

he sounds just like you
