Anyone who's seen Kirk Franklin live knows that he's a powerful entertainer and an animated gospel singer who brings the church and the word with him wherever he goes. Christmas is Franklin's testament to faith and a showcase for some of the finest gospel singers in the Family as they soar through standards such as "Silent Night" and "Go Tell It On The Mountain," along with less familiar fare such as "Now Behold the Lamb" and "They Need To Know Him." Franklin's no gospel purist, however, whether he's charging through a hymn or telling that "Jesus Is the Reason for the Season." He interjects R&B and bits of hip-hop phrasing and jazz into the works. All of it makes for a rousing good time, one that almost turns a studio recording into a live front-pew experience that few Christmas records even come close to delivering. Somebody say Amen. --Martin Keller
Customer Reviews
This is one of the best offerings from Kirk Franklin.
This CD is my very favorite. Kirk Franklin had God behind him 100% on this project. My favorite songs are "Now Behold the Lamb" and "Listen to the Angels". If you're considering this CD as a purchase for yourself or for someone else, it is a great investment.
NEVER gets old! LOVE THIS ALBUM!!!
1. Silent Night
2. Now Behold The Lamb
3. Jesus Is The Reason For The Season
8. The Night That Christ Was Born
The above songs are my personal faves, but the entire album is wonderful. My church sings number two ALL THE TIME (not just Christmastime) and it never fails to bless. This is not just a Christmas album although that is the general theme. Each track can bless all year long!
Now Behold The Lamb
I love the song "Now Behold The Lamb". This is such a powerful song. I always cry when I listen to it. It's so powerful and uplifting.
