I absolutely LOVE this chorus and the kids! They are so inspirational, but I have to say that I was a little disappointed with the change in lyrics. You say it's Christmas traditional, but without, "when Christ was born," and "it is the night of our dear savior's birth," I just feel like the main message is completely erased. I know that kids and everyone celebrates different holidays but sometimes it just upsets me when choruses can't sing anything specific about Christmas anymore. =(

I'm not disagreeing with you, just pointing out: this is a chorus in a public school, and religion in public schools is a tricky area. The lyric changes were probably made to include students of all religious backgrounds and also to avoid any sort of legal conflict.

I love listening to this choir. Amazing

Hearing these kids reminds me why music is so important in schools. They are a reminder of how a child can be molded with the right direction.

Maybe the "main" message of the original song was left out, but I don't really see the problem because it was replaced by three other very important and up-to-date messages: Peace, love and togetherness. What could be better than kids singing about these virtues?

Incredibly moving. Thank you for bringing such beauty into the world.

They are wonderful - to bad all schools don't have music. The kids really miss a full education without it. And here is some proof how important music can be in a school.

How great you go PS22. Lucky to have music and a teacher so dedicated to the kids. WOW!
