[719latinsongbird]

She would have done the Mariah Carey version but it was done already... So, has to different rendition of the same song.. No doubt she has a voice.. No doubt...

[MrJammae]

[jsfreeman1022]

[oleskoolineffect]

I love Jennifer Hudson's voice. She's Foxyextraordinare.....

[aue99]

[funnycowcow]

She sang this from her heart... Love it :)

[sweetpraises]

love jennifer's voice!!!

[DanielAvilaAGT]

Mariah Carey still wins. tho I did like some parts here :))

[zanoases]

Jennifer is better then Celine but Mariah is best sorry,

but its really true, dont want to disrespect Jennifer she

is really talented, my God Mariah is one of the singers

of alltimes and Jennifer knows that, she loves Whitney

and Mariah!

[LadyCastus]

Her voice is one of an angel's. She sings with such ease, she comforts my soul. Truly a blessing.

[MultiJoshua911]

Good.. but nobody can beat Mariah Carey with singing this song. Sorry but it's true..

[philmbrookesmusic]

She makes it look so effortless! I'd of burst a blood vesal tryna sing some of those notes!

[TheRjjrjjr]

There is nothing in my life that I do as well as she sings. This completely talent-less guy stands in awe of her gift.

[LeeBe76]

beautiful rendition...

[tracegnet]

wow just beautiful

[gbsdsp]

I love the conviction in her eyes and body language...as if this song brings the truth. Hallelujah!

[RIPmichael123]

People...if your gonna say this persons your favorite and that persons your favorite, then you should go to their video and comment on that.....this is jennifer hudsons video, so we should be complimenting on her spectacular voice and no one elses...

[TheHumbleKay]

The little boy at the end, talks like a grown man. I like hi Wisdom. Jenniffer is a strong woman, n I'll pray for her as well. Some people would have committed suicide, given up on God, themselves and everything else but She Still Believes in GOD and sang this song about the birth her saviour, my saviour and for those who believe , our saviour's birth very well. Thumbs up to her.

[glady1ful]

Wonderful, fall on your knees, give God the praise.

[kinluc06]

sorry jenny is great but celine dion owned this song, celine just nail it.

[murice11]

@kinluc06

I love Celine but no one can own this song. I love when different singers put there twist on awesome christmas songs!!

[thomastmwc]

watch?v=z8g5cpNUzyY

Miss Price owns it

[thomastmwc]

this is too mushy

[CRAUNKA]

ALL LOVE !!!!

[lionheartgal100]

Beautiful version for me, not overdone on the vocal acrobatics.Did't give birth to her kidney performing this!

[MiniMakeupArtist14]

[Tammy3249956]

amazing

[soulfoodvisnu]

Jennifer Hudson's rendition is AWESOME. Even better is the impression she left on these kids! Peace, Love.

[beachdweller360]

Thanks for this video. I haven't heard her singing before, but this is by far the best rendition of this song that I've found on youtube. She is fantastic! I'm gonna have to find more of her music, I like her voice very much. Merry Christmas to you and your family!

[itstruth4u2]

This is the worst version i have ever heard! Moving on...

[Idarasunshine]

My favorite song too. I danced to that song in church when I was little.

[CrissieSanchez]

1 of my FAVORiTE Christmas songs,, <3

[ThicknCurvvy]

Love this version & Jennifer H but my fav version of this song is by Richard Smallwood on the Gospel Family Christmas CD.

[DANGJOS]

by far the best that I've heard today!

[sonwamac]

this is one song that doesn't need improvement by the Black Gospel style of singing...its magnificent and beautiful in its own right without additives...I am Black and NOT a Christian...but this is one of the greatest songs ever written. I think it should be sung straight. The song makes itself

[Uriahsgrandma]

That is not cool to say that Celine dion rendition is better. Both theses women are magnificent artist. Celine is from Canadian decent. Jennifer is of African American decent. Two mighty, powerful renditions! Two mighty and powerful forces to be recon with!! Wait until you add Mariah Carey to such as these!!! OMGOODNESS!!!

[dienglee]

Celine Dion's rendition is by far the greatest ever.

[johncindi01]

Wow!



[aria08]

Mariahs version is still my favourite.

[romeoisha]

Outstanding job

[toni444444444444]

@supertye1: your favorite singer Whitney Houston was going to sing this song but Whitney is to busy with under aged men, women & crack! Whitney's voice cracks more than microwave & theater popcorn!

[DoctorMaxMoebius]

@toni444444444444 ahh, cut Whitney a break - she was the defining cross-over R&B pop diva who took the reigns from the queen (Aretha, or...?_), and told the world, "There's a beautiful black girl who can't dance, sings her cazoon off like there ain't no mountain (or Whitney) high enough, I MEAN SANTA CLAUS! There ain't no straight man don't wanna tap that..

But tell me one thang - how's that girl keeping time? 'cuz she moves like an extra on a zombie flick.

And I STILL wanna get high w/her!

[toni444444444444]

@supertye1: your favorite singer to sing this song is Taylor Swift, Riahanna, Roseann Bar & Chaz Bono! Irv Va! @supertye1: Happy Honnica!

[rosalyndavis115]

This song belongs to the Lord. Why is there discussion on who sang it better? They all can sing (Jennifer, Mariah, Celine, etc). Leave it @ that. #THATISALL

[mrsrichardgosssr]

@rosalyndavis115 This has always been my favorite Christmas song. Every version is just beautiful because each singer sings it with their whole heart! God Bless Us All~!

[buffalogirl147]

@rosalyndavis115 Patti Labelle's is best

[2luvlikidz]

Omg! New gave version!

[Acousticsoul215]

WOW!! I mean....just...WOW!!

[bigblanc99]

Not only does she rewrite the music but she rewrites the words----------EPIC FAIL

[areneem87]

hmmm she is amazing but I thought it was gonna be better. But then again I compare every o holy night to Mariah's version...

[christine47303]

@areneem87 i do that a lot too... nd i love Jennifer.

[seupoat]

@areneem87 Me too, she is good but no Celine who;s classic version is sung like no ones business... untouchable, not up for debate!!!!!!!!!!! Let;s just not be silly about things!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[supertye1]

@seupoat untouchable? ummmm may i please refer you to either Ms Aretha Franklin or my philly girly, the one and only Ms. Patti Labelle please????

[seupoat]

@supertye1 No you may not, did you not read my comment, "not up for debate!" This song belongs to Celine, it only requires listening skills and honesty. Jenifer managed to ruin this version with her second half antics, its not that kind of song. Sing it straight, nothing wrong with big notes and power but show the song some respect, its not R&B...

[sonwamac]

@seupoat I agree...this is one song of infinite beauty and whose beauty stands on its own right...Its one song that is not improved upon by Black gospelisms and extreme miasmas common to it...(and I'm Black and Proud...a Black Nationalist...but great music is great music a great song is a great song and stands on its own and transcends cultural biases...or should)...I like the Celion Dion version better myself

[ChristinaBodmer]

AMAZING! This is up there with Mariah and Celine's renditions. I love how you kept it classic and didn't do too much with it. It's such a sacred song. =-) I covered the Christina and Celine Dion versions on my channel.

[queeniebug]

Beautiful

[6828Lu]

She has a stunning voice, but she lost me when she started with the vocal gyrations toward th end. This is not a gospel song and she would have done better to sing it straight.

[moroney1]

@6828Lu Why?

[Catnip1964]

Beautifully done and please remember Jesus IS the reason for the season!

[joslena69]

Get if Jen... you're the baddest and need no one to tell ya!!!

[karen43yrs]

I loved the Video especially the end where the children were gave their opinions about her. You never know that you are really loved until children has something good to say about you. I love Jennifer too, and I pray for her all the time.

[MrMinniebunce]

what a queen

[gerardbutler1969]

wonderful performance;-))))))))) thanx for uploading

[CeriaRamos95]

How ignorant is that? She sings like an angry black women!!!!! 8 ( that's rascist

[peptopro17]

she sings like an angry black lady

[TheBritishUnionist]

@peptopro17 No, she sings like a beautiful black woman with a FANTASTIC voice....listen without prejudice and feel the magic!

[JapJackson]

@peptopro17 lol sit back, you could learn a thing or two.

[kagowoo]

Thumbs up if you are watching this in 2014... =,=

[seupoat]

Probably Top Ten....a little bit of Church towards the 2nd half.

[tarny11]

She has the best voice

[tahlahful]

Geez I love how she styles her voice. So amazing. Thank You Lord!

[IantheWoodcraftsman]

Beautifully sung, but what about then other two verses?

[dogcat126]

i am 63 and have heard so many beautiful versions of this beautiful CHRISTMAS song. Jennifer does a superb job!!!!!! she is blessed with an unbelievably beautiful voice as are many many young singers out there today! give a listen to disco queen donna summer's version! thank you so much for posting this beautiful song by a great young talent!!!!!

[leavellscott0481]

she has the voice of an angel.... im very happy that we're fortunate enough to have discovered her.

[KManigo1]

Your voice has aged so beautifully. Stay Blessed My Sister!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Cdogg413]

damn good, and she looks hot too, call me Jennifer H!

[littlemikeism]

Flawless. No need to compare her to anyone. Individuality is as good as gold. Stop arguing and respect the performances of all the talented singers.

[awashhyzo]

This version sound so sacred, the other versions sound so commercial.

[03221961blessed]

This version made me cry...

[karan33774]

One of the best version I've heard!!!

She's truly the greatest voice of this generation!!

[laysongbird]

I love jennifer hudson!!!

[mikediddyTV]

Jennifer did great on this!

[nancysjourney]

GO Jenn!!!!

[msschettler]

I think Jennifer Hudson has great talent with singing and all she does!!!amen!

[ygreenhott2]

SENSATIONAL

[Cublicious]

Miss Jennifer .. Your voice is divine <3

[BlakeMaplesMusic]

Whoa!!!!!!!!!!! I thought I had heard the best versions of this song, but never heard this one!!!! Dannng... She brought the CHURCH haha

[Marvinglz]

Wow! I hear essences of Opera in her voice here! She would make an awesome Soprano!

[atemidiva]

She's pitched perfectly for this song. Just made me start feeling the Christmas spirit:)

[luvindaopera111]

Beautifully sung!

[raishowna]

whooooooaaa why is it that everyone is always comparing voices. I'd like to see any of you to go and perform like any of the people your bashing.....exactly none of you can. They are all successful in their own rights quit the judgments stop belittling others talents shut the heck up and enjoy. SMH....

[thaGoldenVocalist]

@raishowna well said! i love the fact that people who have no musical talent are quick to judge what they cant do or understand!!!

[TheHMKARAOKEMC]

200000th viewer!!!:)

[savinnahsings]

i would love to sing in a place like this....

[janfricosalomo]

good voice............

[zanoases]

I respect Jennifer, but i hate her fans sayin that she is

better then legends like Mariah, Whitney and Aretha!

She isnt even nearly good, never saw Jennifer singing

so effortless like they did in her age. Sorry reality baby

[37tonya]

I like Jennifer's rendition because she doesn't close her eyes when she sings and she doesn't hold her earpiece and shake when she sings like Mariah......also to me Jennifer has a stronger voice

[zanoases]

first of all tonya, mariah holds her earpiece because

to hear her whistles and Mariah feels the music and

because of that she shakes Mariah voice tone is 100

times better, control and melisma everything! Show

me notes Jennifer sang, i show you how Mariah did

billions light years better! Mariah is from generation,

where people like Whitney and Michael were on the

top of the charts and she still is succesful, while lol

Jennifer cant sell any records, because she is even

half talented....

[37tonya]

@zanoases you know what it is not that serious.....I am not even going to argue with you because I am entitled to my opinion....nuff said.

[iamgot]

@zanoases Record sales do not equal talent, your statements seem to be subjective

[zanoases]

iamgot actually mariah is one of the most

succesful and influencin singers with few

people and jennifer is good singer but not

even half talented. its just fact so bye bye

[iamgot]

@zanoases first part of what you said doesn't make sense. also just because you consider someone 'more talented' doesn't make it a factual statement, its subjective. i'm not saying one singer is better than the other, just that you can't really say "mariah is more talented...BECAUSE I THINK SO" that doesn't make it so

[zanoases]

iamgot sorry youre retard as hell, just listend to mariah first

albums`?? you can hear how the perfect sings has to sound

on belts! mariah influenced millions of female singer and LOL

jennifer isnt even halftalented aretha wannabe. mariah hit note

notes higher then mozart notes and sings like gospel queen

and because of that she is like whitney one of the best! LOL

but you have to be retard, who is hatin. Jennifer isnt even half

talented. She cant write, produce or sing nearly good, bye

[powerbar00]

@zanoases It's a personal choice...for me, I hear more than three songs from Mariah, and need to take some zanex. Great voice, but nausiating after more that two or three songs.

[jacinta17ify]

@zanoases REALLY MARIAH CAREY CANT SING THAT WELL JENNIFER HUDSON IS A GREAT SINGER SHE HAS MOR SOUL AND FULLNESS TO HER VOICE SO MARIAH CAREY JUST HIT ALL THEM HIGH NOTES THAT MAKE MY DAMN HEAD HURT LIKE A MOTHERFUCKER SO MAYBE YOU'RE THE ONE WHOSE HATING ON JENNIFER HUDSON AND ARETHA FRANKLIN INSPIRED ALL THESE YONG FEMALE RNB SINGERS TODAY SO SHE IS NOT A ARETHA WANNABE

[zanoases]

jacinta please stop spammin, mariah is like hundred times better

singer since 1990, nobody comes close maybe Whiney & Aretha

but Jennifer is a good singer, but sound compared like a ameteur

and what has powerful voice with tone, melisma and control to do?

Mariah is anyway hundred billions times better singer, Jennifer will

never influence thousand of famous singer like Mariah and Whitney

MOST IMPORTANT, Jennifer Stans talkin shit about Mariah cause

her Holy night owns anyone! ahaha

[jacinta17ify]

@zanoases naw dnt think so mariah damn sure aint inspired me to sing i was inspired to sing by chaka chuan patie labelle gladys knight these ladies inspired mariah but jennifer is a beast mariah can sing but she cant sang

[BMEZY]

@jacinta17ify you must be out ur everlasting mindd if you think mariah can't sangg.. check out her live performances in the early 90s she slays everyone in this generation.. u must not know who the supreme songbird is my friend

[zanoases]

iamgot mariah was the artist of the decade you

retarded idiot, was chosen as THE VOICE of all

times by worldwide votes, just googe retard and

sorry Jennifer cant even sings good, ITS NOT

BECAUSE I THINK SO, ITS FACT bitch, please

who cares what you think, Jennifer is ameteur

compared to legends! Even Charice outsings her

in her sleep!

[iluvmybby12]

i got chills listening to this..

[Arimaarima71]

wonderful rendition of this classic Christmas song.. I love the way Jennifer really belts out certain words. she is a a class act.

[bmjw06]

Luv this woman.

[karolmartin2011]

it's so hard to find a defect in her voice! standing ovation Jennifer :)

beautiful rendition...

[76Junbug]

I Knew once Jennifer Hudson Put out a Christmas album that it would be Great!

[Pinkpawsx]

Wow amazing. This brought tears to my eyes. She's so talented!

[najawa7]

A wonderful talent!

[Querzeo]

This is stupendous!!

A black voice in all its power, colour, range and strentgh!

And I hate when she tries to be a pop singer...

[datleoishot84]

@Querzeo well the thing about it is black music don't sell as well anymore.. i.e look at people like Monica, Brandy, Avant, Maxwell etc... great singers but without pop to hit the White charts they won't make any money. but i feel where your coming from

[dogcat126]

this girl can sing anything and make it beautiful!!!!!! thanks soso much for posting!!!!!

[Choclongleggz]

it always amazes me how she sings this song so calm and collective and blows the tunes off the chart! Her octane is outstanding! I think my wine glass just cracked!  AWESOME!

[awashhyzo]

When Jennifer is singing this song, looking in her eyes you really feel the meaning of Jesus Christ birth, like you are there when Mary is going through labor and birthing Jesus into world.

[boruff68]

8 people need their head examined.

[viralmarketingmom]

When you've got it ... you've got it. Beautiful version of this song.

[fluffyLeo22]

THE GIRL CAN BLOW!



[Pepelepea]

I was cut off somehow before I finished my post. I was just going to add one more thing. At the end of this song, some children talk about her. The one I think they called "Kaleb": listen to his last comment regarding the tragedy in her life and he says he will pray for her. A tiny child with such a huge, loving heart. I think more than one angel touched my heart tonight.

[Pepelepea]

I am embarrassed to admit this, but I have never had the opportunity to hear Jennifer Hudson sing. As she sang this, her voice pulled the tears out of me. Mere words are not enough to describe the beauty in her voice! I feel as if an angel touched my heart tonight

[boruff68]

@Pepelepea Her and Mariha Carey are just insane!

[talyfaith]

Awesome! Beautiful!:)

[fmillis2009]

AWESOME!!!!! JUST AWESOME!!!!!!

[tampaxtampon]

Look at how effortlessly she sings this song!! the lord truely does bless some of us with song pwerful enough to reach millions upon trillions of us!

[yoshiofdeath]

O Holy Sh@#% she sings this version well!

[cdhinton77]

you betta saaaaaanngg!!! Jennifer. I am a huge fan of the tone of her singing voice.

[LeiaDare]

Beautiful!!

[chinalilblack90]

I love it

[JoyceLicorish]

Nice rendition.



[Avongkaysone87]

I don't know why people are on here bashing musicians? Yes you are entitled to your opinions, but please keep the negativity to yourself! Many musicians started singing in church; most have ventured out to other genres, but does that mean they're sinners for playing "Satan's Music"? On another note, Jennifer Hudson you keep on shining through them tough days because you are an inspiration in its self!

[TodaysYourLast]

i felt lonely wen heard this song.nice voice ton

e

[KWEENMOANA]

She got the words wrong...boo

[ciaramist16]

i think her and christina aguilera should do a gospel song... dont hate, it could happen :)

[brownshuga24]

This is such a beautiful song describing the night our savior was born.  Gives me chill bumps every time i hear it!

[strictly2011]

getting in the mood for christmas. Geat voice

[72babyjane]

wow, she goooood,, love this song

[iamtata22]

@4:01-4:07 I stopped breathing! (=

[Avongkaysone87]

I love her! Ever since Idol days. She is what I called a musician!

[philmbrookesmusic]

Such a god given talent! i am blessed to be able to listen to her voice! :)

[Holliday0703]

Is this some where that I can download it?

[stinkeyfingaz]

@OdileFetra92 no its the peace of GOD you hear that gives you the most awesome relaxing chills because JESUS is LORD and he will come back for us he died and rose from the dead for us.I LOVE JESUS CHRIST MY LORD AND SAVIOUR

[Raanthony86]

Wow, she must've gotten some vocal training over the years. That was pretty awesome.

She use to shout all over the mic, I hated it...I'm glad she's learning to control that.

[philmbrookesmusic]

@Raanthony86 I completely agree! Can't help but smile when she belts a Bb5 though can you? :)
