In Awe of Jesus

What's a Protestant like me doing listening to a modern day hymn sung by a Catholic? You listen to this (below) and you decide. 




This song written from Mary's point of view about the coming birth of Jesus is striking in its worshipful tone of her Savior. The songwriter and performer,  John Michael Talbot, the founder of The Brothers and Sisters of Charity, sings it with such beauty and a sense of wonder, honoring the Lord Jesus Christ. It's a perfect spirit primer for the season ahead.

"I’ve known John Michael for more years than I’d like to remember. (I’m old).  I’ve spent weeks with him on the road, and seen him deal with all kinds of high pressure situations, both onstage and off. John’s heart has always revealed the love and compassion of Christ.  His music is uniquely his own and has profoundly ministered to tens, if not hundreds of thousands over the years, maybe even millions."
                Barry McGuire - Pop music artist best known for the single, "Eve of Destruction"
