I listen to this while studying abroad in the USA on a quiet night, it takes me back to the warmth of being with my family at Christmas, and the joy of my younger self at the idea of being with my grandparents. The warmth of the yellow bulb light of their houses after Christmas dinner and the bleak cold of the English winter outside. This takes me back to those nice times and being cold in the village church on Christmas Eve. Thank you for the upload

This particular arrangement is by far my favorite for this underrated hymn. Especially that descant at the end, it's like the heavens opened up and all the angels sang with a joyous voice. And I think this choir did a magnificent performance, BRAVO!!

6. Not in that poor lowly stable, With the oxen standing by, We shall see Him; but in heaven, Set at God's right hand on high; Where like stars His children crowned All in white shall wait around.

Yes, I sang it in my children's (Anglican) church choir (Christ The King, Bahamas) as a little boy as a soloist. Have loved it ever since. Thank you Mr. Seifert, our choir director.😍

What a MAGNIFICENT contribution to the world of Christmas music is this....🙏🎄

Merry Christmas to all from The Netherlands.

Thank you to each and every member of the choir for what you have given us in this sequence of carols. You have given your hearts in this work and I feel like I have come to know each of your personally and have come to love you. Now, with each new carol it's like being greeted by old friends. Merry Christmas, friends.

You've made a playlist for these works of art! Fantastic! I work in a supermarket, and in my opinion this music is infinitely more preferable to the stuff I've had to put up with for the past two months 😃👍👌

Poor you…… It’s the antidote! Enjoy

Glad to see and hear that Christianity is alive in Great Britain. Mrs. C. F. Alexander, who wrote "Once in Royal David's City," "There is a Green Hill Far Away," and "All Things Bright and Beautiful" is one of the best hymnwriters. The performance by Trinity College here is beautiful. Queen Elizabeth would be pleased.

Christmas without music is IMPOSSIBLE! Thank you, you wonderful singers, for giving me the gift of your voices and your music to warm my heart in these very special Christmas days! I hope to hear you soon again in Germany.

Thank you for uploading these! Stuck at home as we are, I appreciate this greatly. Just finished watching last year's Advent service (December 1, Sunday 2019), and it is full of God's Glory and Presence!

One of the best I’ve heard!! Brilliant xxxx

My parents played the 1956 Willcocks recording every Xmas. Listening to it is my whole observance, in their memory

A light in the darkness.

Sang along, counter tenor, descant all the way, absolutely divine, thankyou!

Once in royal David's city Stood a lowly cattle shed Where a mother laid her baby In a manger for His bed: Mary was that mother mild Jesus Christ her little child He came down to earth from heaven Who is God and Lord of all And His shelter was a stable And His cradle was a stall; With the poor and meek and lowly Lived on earth our Savior holy And through all His wondrous childhood He would honor and obey Love and watch the lowly mother In whose gentle arms He lay Christian children all should be Mild, obedient, good as He For He is our child-hood's pattern Day by day like us He grew He was little, weak, and helpless Tears and smiles like us He knew And He feeleth for our sadness And He shareth in our gladness And our eyes at last shall see Him Through His own redeeming love; For that child so dear and gentle Is our Lord in heaven above And He leads His children on To the place where He is gone Not in that poor lowly stable With the oxen standing by We shall see Him, but in heaven Set at God's right hand on high; When like stars His children crowned All in white shall be around

So glad to hear David Willcocks arrangement again. King's College has changed to using Stephen Cleobury's arrangement, which in my opinion, doesn't have the same power as this one.

Merry Christmas world

Incredibly beautiful.

Once in royal David's city Stood a lowly cattle shed, Where a mother laid her Baby In a manger for His bed: Mary was that mother mild, Jesus Christ her little Child. He came down to earth from heaven, Who is God and Lord of all, And His shelter was a stable, And His cradle was a stall; With the poor, and mean, and lowly, Lived on earth our Saviour holy. And our eyes at last shall see Him, Through His own redeeming love; For that Child so dear and gentle Is our Lord in heaven above, And He leads His children on To the place where He is gone. Not in that poor lowly stable, With the oxen standing by, We shall see Him; but in heaven, Set at God's right hand on high; When like stars His children crowned All in white shall wait around.

Absolutely STUNNING!

What a great hymn of hope and joy to come all will be well

This is soooo beautiful. Thank you. The for me suprising descant makes it so special... Thank you again .🙂 Merry Christmas...

Once in royal Davids city, Stood a lowly cattle shed, Where a mother laid her Baby, In a manger for His bed: Mary was that mother mild, Jesus Christ, her little Child. He came down to earth from heaven, Who is God and Lord of all, And His shelter was a stable, And His cradle was a stall: With the poor, and mean, and lowly, Lived on earth our Saviour holy. For He is our childhood's pattern; Day by day, like us, He grew; He was little, weak, and helpless, Tears and smiles, like us He knew; And He cares when we are sad, And he shares when we are glad. And our eyes at last shall see Him, Through His own redeeming love; For that Child so dear and gentle, Is our Lord in heaven above: And He leads His children on, To the place where He is gone.

Glory to God! Hallelujah He is born

Once in royal David’s city, Stood a lowly cattle shed, Where a mother laid her baby In a manger for His bed: Mary was that mother mild, Jesus Christ her little child. * He came down to earth from heaven, Who is God and Lord of all, And His shelter was a stable, And His cradle was a stall; With the poor and meek and lowly, Lived on earth our Saviour holy. * And through all His wondrous childhood, He would honour and obey, Love and watch the lowly mother, In whose gentle arms He lay. Christian children all should be, Mild, obedient, good as He. * For He is our child-hood’s pattern, Day by day like us He grew, He was little, weak, and helpless, Tears and smiles like us He knew, And He feeleth for our sadness, And He shareth in our gladness. * And our eyes at last shall see Him, Through His own redeeming love; For that child so dear and gentle, Is our Lord in heaven above, And He leads His children on, To the place where He is gone. * Not in that poor lowly stable, With the oxen standing by, We shall see Him, but in heaven, Set at God’s right hand on high; When like stars His children crowned, All in white shall be around.

I literally just came here to leave a comment about the one true descant, and I’ve already commented about the descant four months ago.

lovely voice. Though it is not the right pitch

Can't understand a single word of the song.

beuatiful BUT hard to understand some itmes, the words should have more clarity than beauty for they are far more important.

Its a beautiful song. May i know their names of these 2 girls? They're very cute for me hehee

Practice listening. You should get the message from the music it's self. When you're at the seashore and you hear the waves come in, gently or with a roar, you understand the message. When you hear birds gaily singing or angrily fussing or shrieking in alarm you don't understand their "words" but you get the message. When you hear a baby jabber excitedly at someone who loves them or quietly jabber to themselves or crying because they're hungry, need changing, are bored, want cuddling or are sick you don't understand their words either. My Daddy said pay attention. Look, listen and think.
