I have heard this song a thousand times I’m sure through out my lifetime,but when I heard this song from Jennifer Hudson it just truly touched my heart and made me cry in a way that brought me closer to my Lord Jesus Christ. She Sang it beautifully.❤I am sure the Lord was smiling from heaven 😊
Simon loves her to this day. America voted her out because she was over weight and also when you allow the masses to vote it becomes a popularity contest instead of voting for the right person.
I was so impressed with your heartfelt care and concern for her. Merry Christmas and your lucky to have been to speak! Did you know that you'd get to speak ahead of time or on the spot? You are so special.
Hazel Hopkins God Bless you and yours. This is one of my favorite songs, Christmas or otherwise. Ms. Hudson sings it in a way that should move anyone. It does me, and apparently you too. I see that your comment was almost a year ago and here we are coming up on another Christmas. God blesses us with time. May your time be full of love and happiness. In advance, Merry Christmas!
Jennifer Merry Christmas from TX I watch your show EVERY MORNING @ 5am. Love it congratulations. Even to your family/familia💞💞💞💞💞😇😇😇😇👏👏👏👏👏👏👏oviations to ALL that are here!!😘😘😘😘😘😘. Change up time🤗🤗🤗💗💗💗👏👏👏💞💞💞
I could watch this version of O Holy Night over and over and over again. Jennifer Hudson gives me chills. She sings with such passion. She has my vote for best version!
So far. I’ve listened to Celine Dion and Mariah’s version’s. Whew. They are all powerful!!! Jennifer gave me chills. LOL. ..a couple of times. Let me go see if Whitney recorded this.
The thrill of hope, our weary world is rejoicing! Thank you Jennifer for leading us beautifully in praising our King❣️ we will praise his name forever with you ~ you brought this girl to her knees!🙏
Just heard this for the first time! Sing baby girl ,sing!!! Don’t let anyone take you down. Just sing!! You are beautiful, kind and called to do God’s work!!! Merry Christmas! December 2023
I Don't Want To Be Morbid_ This IS A Joyful Time. Pero My Mom Would Sing This Often To Me [and] When She Did Not Sing, She Would Hmm The Whole Song. I Thought Besides Her [and] Johnny Mathis--NO One Could Ever Put Chills Upon My Soul They Way They Did/Had...My Mother IS No Longer With Me Passing Recently, But In Spirit She Lives... Jennifer My Love My Hat IS Off To You!! You Were Able To Bring That Light [and] Replicate Those Chills! Thank You! [and] Merry Christmas A Todos!!!!
Mariah Carey’s version is best, it’s from the heavens. The soulfulness and emotions she puts into it is crazy. The trills and runs aren’t too much because they perfectly go with the song and vibe and are sung with passion and emotion. Crazy goosebumps every time.
Thank God for Jesus! For he is Great and Worthy to be praised. God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels. Thank God for Jesus thew Holy one, Our Savior born in a manger in Bethlehem! Thank God for Jesus. Thank God for his Grace, And we Give thanks unto God for all things, for his mercy endureth forever, Thank you Jesus! Glory to God, Hallelujah!!!
I look at the comments and am saddened. Music is meant to touch souls combined with the words and meaning it becomes very powerful. This particular song was sung by many, in as many different ways. some I liked, others I loved, and then there was those very few that I wish would have been much longer, because they were so beautiful. I do not expect everyone to love those versions as much as I do, nor will I ridicule them for not loving them as much. I merely wish that you close your eyes, hear the words, and the passion that the artist sings, and that is where you will find the beauty. The beauty of how the artist brings their touch and emotion to the song. This is the season to think about a baby that changed the world that became a man of love....for everyone. Start showing love, for without it we are doomed.
+Tony Hyden Well said, I think we should all forget about the versions (everyone has a favorite, its normal, nothing wrong with that) but the importance lays in the lyrics of these song. Christmas is about having Christ's love and sharing it to everyone else, even your worst enemy!
Two singers shouldnt be compared to each other (i.e. Mariah Carey / Jenniffer Hudson). This is a Gospel Song. Every artist has their own voice, their own story and their own expression and unique sound. I wouldn't compare Luther Vandross to James Brown, neither Stevie Wonder to either as each are unique in their sound. But they are all BLESSED with their talent. Well done Jennifer. Just played it (first song of the day to get my day started) and have to say.. i feel a beautiful sense of calm after hearing. Blessings
I love this version the most . Mariah's version is beautifull too until she starts those high pitch notes . This song give's me inner peace . Not the lyrics but her performance is so strong so beautifull so powerfull . Bý the way I believe religion is the root of all evil .
I agree with you. I just commented on a different thread where I said that although I think Mariah's version was better, imo. I also stated I would love to hear Jennifer do this in the studio because you can't really compare studio to non-studio. Now let's say for one moment that Jennifer does it in studio and can't do it better....AND! Let's hear Mariah do "and I am telling you" studio, live, at the bottom of the ocean, on the moon I don't care nobody's topping Jennifer or even the other Jennifer LOL you can have two equally gifted singers even in the same genre who can do one song or the other better than the other. Once again, comparing the two versions I've heard I give it to Mariah but overall I would take Jennifer any day.
I agree with every thing you said and the way you said it with grace and truth. Why one voice with another. Just lean back listen and relax your self with good music. Then again what sounds good for you, might not sound good for me. So what??
I sang and played this as a child and loved it. Brings shch good memories and faith, which I need and rely on today. You are also are ablessing in my life right now. 🙏✝️💙🎄🎁
This song brings tears to my eyes every time. I've lost both my parents very close together I'm 37 and I feel so alone. Life will never be the same again. Loneliness is the worst feeling in the world. Music is my comfort 😔 Jennifer Hudson is a joy x
Merry Christmas Claire! May the love, joy and peace of God fill your heart at all times. And may God bless you with amazing friends and your own family. May you never walk alone in Jesus name. And though across the world from you, if you ever need a friend your age, I'd be here.
One of the most beautiful songs ever pen. When I think of Jesus coming into the world to save me.. I can't help but thank God. Not just for the season of Christmas but every day I give him glory and honor because He is the Hope of the world.. I love him.. Peace and Good will to you all.
I agree...I remember this song being my favorite song even as a child. It has always touched my heart. Always remember the reason for the season. Thank you Jesus
When I hear Jennifer sing this song. I'll fight my tears. And even though I'm not religious, I realize there's more. Whether we call it God Allah or whatever, this song always makes me realize that we have to be good to each other.
Innnnnnnnncredible!!!! she represents the beauty in God and how he loves music....God truly continue to bless her and her sister...her voice so we get to enjoy it again since losing Whitney Michael Luther and Prince....
Christmas eve ahhhhhhh! Our mighty Savior's birthday. Walk with the Lord Jesus in faith. Bow down to the creator I AM for his glory in faith! Thank you God for I'm not deserving! Bless everyone on earth oh Lord.
Jennifer is marvelous and deserves much more notoriety. Love her voice and her encouragement of others. Those children are so sweet. My heart melted when that sweet boy said he would pray for her. Bless his parents for teaching him the value of prayer.
What a beautiful song from beautiful voice. Merry Christmas everyone. I live in Indonesia, the biggest Islam country in the world. But until now, God is great and really good, He is taking care of us to know Him more and bring the message of the Christmas, salvation for everyone. No one should be perish...that's His heart. Enjoy this season and share His love.
I’ve heard the greatest voice that Jennifer Hudson is in the top 20, spot her long time, and since then she has improved tremendously. Enjoy voice is sweet.
I pray this music and scriptures provides strength for anyone who needs healing and comfort. Be encouraged. Remember to subscribe and share with others. God bless...🙏🙏💖💖🎉🎉
Well done who is listening to this masterpiece in 2024 who is with me ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Jennifer Hudson has one of the best voices that I've heard in my lifetime.
I like Jennifer's voice and the way she's handled her career. Very admirable...
A true musical artist, that handled fame like a gift 👍
Outstanding vocals Truly Blessed and Highly Favored by God!
@@carolyncovington1 yes 😇

I’m so glad that she did not listen to Simon, because she knew she had a gift that the world should hear. One of the best voices this day.
I'm curious if Simon ever admitted that she is Truly Heavenly Blessed
Simon put her through. America voted her off because she was overweight
I love u Jennifer ❤
Simon loves her to this day. America voted her out because she was over weight and also when you allow the masses to vote it becomes a popularity contest instead of voting for the right person.
Absolutely gorgeous Jennifer your gift is surely from the ALMIGHTY GOD. IN THE NAME OF JESUS
I was one of the kids in the background! I'll never forget this day!
ShaniP1992 that's amazing, I would love to have been there. Such a special memory to have..
You were all so cute!
I was so impressed with your heartfelt care and concern for her. Merry Christmas and your lucky to have been to speak! Did you know that you'd get to speak ahead of time or on the spot? You are so special.
So touching....
😇
I am crying as I listen to this song. He, Jesus came for me a sinner. Let us all who know him fall on our knees and give him Glory

Such an excellent rendition of my all time favorite Christmas carol
Praise him! ❤
I am in tears.
11/30/2023 I woke up with this song on my mind. I searched RUclips for a an artist I like and found it sung by an artist I love.
And today 11/26/2024 I did the same. Happy Holidays to you.
jennifer has the best voice and just belts it out effortlessly. She is an amazing talent.
I have loved this girl since her American Idol days. An amazing voice.. God bless you Jennifer ⚘
Me too. I actually boycotted American Idol after Simon let her go.
Jennifer Merry Christmas from TX I watch your show EVERY MORNING @ 5am. Love it congratulations. Even to your family/familia💞💞💞💞💞😇😇😇😇👏👏👏👏👏👏👏oviations to ALL that are here!!😘😘😘😘😘😘. Change up time🤗🤗🤗💗💗💗👏👏👏💞💞💞
Wow, this woman has a voice of pure gold.

This song reigns supreme. Jennifer you are just an incredible talent an angels voice. Bless you
My beautiful MS. Hudson. You are superior!

Have you heard David Phelp's version?
Goosies ....all over...amazing...timeless...effortless......whoa...Jennifer....
She sounds beautiful. Check out Smokey Norful.
Yes Essence
The Heavens her. She sang her pain to the Lord from her soul. Angelic comfort and strength was with her.
I respect Jennifer Hudson because she comes back to "The Hood" and help people, GOD bless her.
The thrill of hope, our weary world is rejoicing! Thank you Jennifer for leading us beautifully in praising our King❣️ we will praise his name forever with you ~ you brought this girl to her knees!🙏
I am an atheist but I can't help admiring this song. It evokes such emotion and hope, beautiful piece of music!
Me, too, Becky! I enjoy a lot of holiday songs, even gospel songs. They have some of the best singers!
that's a beautiful thing for you to say.
Becky Barnes same here. i still love holiday songs like this one even though i am not religious.
on another note gospel singers are the bomb.
Same with me, BB. Psst- this composer also wrote a great ballet. Sorry I cannot spring it on you.
Becky Barnes Then she did her job .. it's supposed to move and stir something inside you... just because your atheist doesn't mean you don't FEEL....
Just heard this for the first time! Sing baby girl ,sing!!! Don’t let anyone take you down. Just sing!! You are beautiful, kind and called to do God’s work!!! Merry Christmas! December 2023
Even as a child this was one of my favorite songs!!!!
👍👍👍👍
To be touched by music is to be touched by the divine. This is pure proof. God Bless
This is my favorite Christmas song and she sings it masterfully!!
I Don't Want To Be Morbid_ This IS A Joyful Time. Pero My Mom Would Sing This Often To Me [and] When She Did Not Sing, She Would Hmm The Whole Song.

You were not morbid at all friend.. I'm sorry for your recent loss ⚘
This rendition is one of the most beautiful I have heard, She sang from her heart and did not try to showboat and it had be on my knees and crying.
Awesome my favorite ❤
Beautifully sung, and an incredible song that never gets old. But why do people skip the more powerful second verse?
Why!!!!!!!😢
Yes!!!!
Jennifer is just blessed with one of the best voices in this lifetime!!!
I listened to it about 5am this morning... and at 8pm, I'm back and feeling the closeness to Jesus.
This is the best version of this song i have ever heard. Well sang . not overdone BEAUTIFULLY DONE . JENNIFER HUDSON YOU ARE THE BEST
Better than Mahalia Jackson?

Kids are a blessing..
as obsessed as I thought I was with Jennifer Hudson, where have I been with this?? Simply amazing. My new favorite version of this song.
her voice is so full and rich 😦
MY girl Jennifer Hudson killed it effortlessly of course. She's one of the best vocalists in the WORLD.
Xmas is not the same without these beautiful songs
3:20 Goosebumps commence
4:02 Why she one of the greatest female vocalists.
Outstanding!!!!!
For my beautiful niece Milan 🕊💛 and my Benji 🤎🦮❤️ R.I.P 🤍🕊✨ Divine 🕊🕊🤍🤎💔❤️🩹❤️🔥

Marvelous and True response here
Mariah's version especially the First in 1994 is recognized as the best version ever and the Golden Standard. It's untouchable and unmatchable
