    I was laying in a hospital bed after a serious motorbike accident, I heard this song over and over. I love this iconic song.

    Took my mum to see Johnny for her 80th birthday. My dad used to always get tickets for him in the 70s . I lost her in June this year. Found a written note in the tour programme she had bought. & It read i was so lucky to have 3 very special men in my life 🥲.... merry Christmas 🎄 mam. Love you & dad ❤️

    I was 18 when I first heard this on my car radio in 1976. It was 6am just finished my night shift. Listening to this beautiful song sung with that amazing voice was spellbinding. Before driving home I sat in my Cortina mk 2 looking over the white frosted fields and I cried. This song has always had a very special place in my heart.

    Most iconic song for the birth of Christ.. and for any family welcoming a baby into their lives ESPECIALLY around Christmas time. Still brings tears to my eyes snd joy to my heart everytime I hear this song. And my “child” is 32. Just like yesterday. This memory I never want to loose.

      There’s another that you may want to hear. Little did I know that it would be my children’s favourite so many years later & now my grand kids. It’s called “” A cradle is rocking”” Nat King Cole.

    There are moments when we feel closer to the stars than ever before and more importantly closer to each other and ourselves towards our own 'self'. This song does it, moving us deeply, reminding us of our inner child and all that is good. It is worth awakening this child within us. Thank you Johnny Mathis for that. Happy Birthday to All on the Birth of Child.

    So much he suffered with...race, sexual preference, mixed ethnicity, etc. But you never heard of his many accomplishments, not just through songs but through his superior sports abilities too. To me, he's a wonderful man with a velvet voice and the ability to carry on with dignity, despite the interference.

    Although we know which child this refers to, I also take it as being about the hope embodied in every new birth, the wish that each new generation can help make a better world. It's a beautiful and timeless message.

    ray of hope flickers in the sky
    A tiny star lights up way up high
    All across the land, dawns a brand new morn
    This comes to pass when a child is born
    A silent wish sails the seven seas
    The winds of change whisper in the trees
    And the walls of doubt crumble, tossed and torn
    This comes to pass when a child is born
    A rosy hue settles all around
    You've got to feel you're on solid ground
    For a spell or two, no one seems forlorn
    This comes to pass when a child is born
    And all of this happens because the world is waiting
    Waiting for one child
    Black, white, yellow, no one knows
    But a child that will grow up and turn tears to laughter
    Hate to love, war to peace and everyone to everyone's neighbour
    And misery and suffering will be words to be forgotten forever
    It's all a dream, an illusion now
    It must come true, sometime soon somehow
    All across the land, dawns a brand new morn
    This comes to pass when a child
