I have enjoyed most items by Selah since discovering them a few years ago. I also love various Christmas albums. This one is very good, especially if you like Selah's sound. Their rendition of Silent Night has become one of my favorites - very smooth and elegant, the way it was meant to be sung. Dolly Parton does a cameo on this CD as well, which is nice. This is a great overall Christmas album for background music at a get-together or at work or at home. Not a dull Christmas offering! This is a pleaser!
Superb vocals, gorgeous arrangements: this album is far from “ordinary” Christmas fare! Focusing on the Christ of Christmas, the songs range from thought-provoking to joyful, worshipful to all-out celebratory. This group offers supreme quality and surprising range in material - beautiful music, beautifully made.

This is my favorite Christmas CD. What's really unique is that there are 4 "new" (to me anyway) Christmas songs on here, and I love them all! The classic carols are well done in the usual Selah excellent style, but the duet Once Upon A Chrstmas (Allan & Dolly Parton) and Light of the Stable, Mystery and Rose Of Bethlehem are by far my favorites. Wish there were more songs, but it's a wonderful, uplifting CD that brings home the True meaning of Christmas
I love this group, having first heard them sing, "god Bless the Broken Road" at a wedding in July. It left my husband and me in tears. The group is a Christian group, but they have a much deeper feel than most with a bluesy gospel sound and rich harmonies. The members take turns on the solos and on one piece, Dolly Parton sings a verse as a guest. I have bought all their albums in the 6 months since I first heard them and I eagerly await their next album.
Good value for what it cost. I love Selah and some songs are good, however most are not as good as I thought they would be. Overall it was disappointing and did not convey a feeling of Christmas for the most part.
