    The way they snuck We Three Kings in there was just exquisite. And who else but Sarah McLachlan to sing that part? Just beautiful.

    I don't generally like to hear traditional Christmas music rearranged a great deal, but Barenaked Ladies and Sarah McLaclan hit this one out of the park. One of my favorite Christmas songs now.

      Which was horrible cause there is another song out there (We Three Kings of Orient Are) that has the exact same chorus out there.

    Hi, I'm from Chile and people here don´t know this version of Christmas song. When I was in the USA, I was so sorprised that radios played Chistmas songs during the whole month. That was the moment when I discovered this song and I loved it inmediately...I didn't know who sang it and I looked so hard in youtube and finally found it. I don't get tired of it. I love it, specially Sarah McLachlan's voice.

      My understanding is that this song was first performed, unrehearsed, on-stage in Detroit when Sarah (the headline act) was DYING on stage. BNL had just left the stage, then came back out to jam with her and save her set from completely collapsing in front of thousands of fans. The song itself was a Christmas miracle for Sarah. I love Canadian musicians, and this teamwork was amazing to watch.

    To save us all from Satan's power
    When we were gone astray.
    O tidings of comfort and joy,
    Comfort and joy,
    O tidings of comfort and joy!
    From God our heavenly Father
    This blessed angel came;
    And unto certain shepherds
    Brought tidings of the same;
    How that in Bethlehem was born
    The Son of God by name.
    O tidings of comfort and joy,
    Comfort and joy,
    O tidings of comfort and joy!
    O, star of wonder, star of night,
    Star with royal beauty bright,
    Westward leading, still proceeding,
    Guide us to thy perfect light.
    Born a king on Bethlehem's plain;
    Gold I bring to crown Him again;
    King forever, ceasing never,
    Over us all to reign.
    O, star of wonder, star of night,
    Star with royal beauty bright,
    Westward leading, still proceeding,
    Guide us to thy perfect light.
    Glorious now behold Him arise,
    King and God and sacrifice,
    Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
    Worshipping God most high.
    O, star of wonder, star of night,
    Star with royal beauty bright,
    Westward leading, still proceeding,
    Guide us to thy perfect light.

      @@JohnClark-tf9pp Same here, John and Cindy, but she was my mother-in-law. She invited my wife and me to live with her 20 years ago, as she was aging. What a blessing to all of us that she reached 102 years and 10 days. Agree about support systems. Between family, church, and Hospice, we came through it all right, but Christmas will be tough. Blessings to you, and all others who've lost loved ones this year.

    Wow! I never would have guessed in a million years that this is the group that sang this rendition of this song. Heard it on the radio for the first time a few days and the lurching rythm, guitar and bass in the background and sliding notes by the singers was kind of catchy.
    Different but I like it. Buying it now....

      John Adams There is a saying, "Wise men still seek Him" I found Jesus Christ when I was 28 and He changed everything!!! He's in that business. If you have time really study the lyrics to "Joy To the World" He rules!!!

      Patrick, thanks for the education on that. although I a actually mostly jewish, albeit not really religious, but you will be happy to know that despite that, I am told by most people they think I must attend church every sunday because I have never smoked,drank done drugs, and work very hard to do the right thing for the benefit of others more than not. I always try to respect others, be honest, sincere and all that jazz. But hey, no one is perfect, at least not us humans. but despite all this, I think this song, this version is just really truly amazing and soothing.
