Charlene and I wrote this Christmas song five years ago and it's sat around collecting dust as a BIAB midi file I didn't know quite what to do with. So finally here it is with all RT's. Merry Christmas. GOD IS WITH US Mary kissed her newborn baby As she gently laid him on the hay Shepherds on a nearby hillside Knelt in wonder as the angels sang Glory to God in the highest On earth peace goodwill to men The world rang in joyful harmony Child of heaven Son of Man Emmanuel God is with us Sing praises to our King Salvation has come to us Tell the story the Christ child brings Trumpets filled the air with music As angels' voices heralded Him Redemption so long awaited Born in a manger in Bethlehem Holy this child called Jesus Born of spirit a spotless lamb The world rang in perfect harmony Child of heaven Son of Man Emmanuel God is with us Sing praises to our King Salvation has come to us Tell the story the Christ child brings His name is Wonderful, Marvelous, Glorious, Comforter, Counsellor, Prince of Peace, All Mighty God ©2009 Josie Beck/Charlene Grant Hope you enjoy it. Josie

Really pretty and well-written song!! I think the choice of RTs is great-very celebratory vibe. It would be great to hear a gospel choir in the background. Very cool stuff!! Take care. Greg

Thank you very much Greg. Yeah, I wish I could have a real Gospel choir too. The Brooklyn Tabernacle is my favorite. If you like choirs and get a chance check this out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGl2DhiMINsJosie

Hi Josie, I agree with Greg and Charlie, this is beautiful. I really like the chorus. I found myself singing along with you without even realising I was doing so Also, the clarity of the backing and your singing is superb. I don't know what you have done but the overall sound is top notch, very professional! May Christmas be special for you and yours, Noel P.S. Thank you for the link for the Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir. I have not heard them before. Wow!!!! I don't know if you've ever heard the Oslo Gospel Choir. If you're curious follow this link.

Josie, IMHO this is the latest Christmas Classic!
This was excellent and it's a keeper.
Whenever I get something stuck in the back of my throat, I dislodge it by drinking a beer.
It's called the Heineken Maneuver.

Merry Christmas. Guenter And another +1. A good write. Terrific arrangement and mix. The vocal is nicely recorded (I like that reverb) and the harmonies are nice. One of your best! floyd

I'm using the Eventide UltraChannel and Ultraverb along with Ozone and the new delay from NI. That Oslo Gospel Choir is great! I fell in love with big choirs back in the days of yore when I was chosen to represent my high school in the state choral festival. A famous guest conductor worked with us. It was one of those early life experiences with a lasting impression. Charlene and I love that you were singing along. Josie
