Amazing performance brother. We heard this song first time at the 2018 GCC Christmas Concert and instantly fell in love with the song. Goosebumps every time I hear this.
You Tube has a custom speed setting now and the 2018 performance sounds better at 0.9 of normal speed. You can savor the majesty of it more. But the reason the 2016 performance is more special to me is because that was the first year you sang it for us and it was so fresh and new.

THEME SONG OF MY LIFE!!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤BRASIL 🥰 😍 🥰 😍 🥰 😍
I was takin a trip on a plane the other day
Just wishing that I could get out.
When the man next to me saw the book in my hand
And asked me what it was about.
So I settled back in my seat-
"A best seller, " I said.
"A history, a mystery in one."
And then I opened up the book and began to read
From Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.
He was born of a virgin one holy night
In the little town of Bethlehem.
Angels gathered round him underneath the stars
Singing praises to the great I Am.
He walked on the water, healed the lame and made the blind to see again.
And for the first time here on earth we learned that God could be a friend.
And though he never ever did a single thing wrong
The angry crowd chose him. And then he walked down the road
And died on the cross and that was the end of the beginning.
"Thats not a new book thats a bible, " he said, "and I've heard it all before.
I've tried religion- its shame and guilt and I dont need it anymore.
It's superstition, made up tales and just to help the weak to survive."
"Let me read it again, " I said, "listen closely, cuz this is gonna change your life.
He was born of a virgin one holy night
In the little town of Bethlehem.
Angels gathered round him underneath the stars
Singing praises to the great I Am.
He walked on the water, healed the lame and made the blind to see again.
And for the first time here on earth we learned that God could be a friend.
And though he never ever did a single thing wrong
The angry crowd chose him. And then he walked down the road
And died on the cross and that was the end of the beginning.
"The end of the beginning, " he said with a smile.
"What more could there be? He's dead.
You said they hung him, put nails in His hands
And a crown of thorns on His head."
I said, "I'll read it again but this time there's more,
And I believe that this is true.
His death wasn't the end, the beginning of life
That's completed in you.
Don't you see he did all this for you!"

Thank you.
This tempo is quite better than it was in 2018
Clayton had a lot more coffee before conducting in 2018 😉
