This cantata performed by the Community Christian Church of Manchester, Mo., Dec 12, 1971, my mom a soprano, my brother and I listening from the pews. Pianist Alice Walker, her husband Rev. Paul Walker, Choir Director Ralph Totsch. I was 14 and the precious recording we have still brings tears to my eyes.

I sang this as a teenager & now I’m 75. My mother was the choir director. I’m amazed at how much I remember

[Zephaniahverse]

I'm back, playing this in a dismal December and being reminded that the great truths of scripture are unaltered despite the upheavals in the world. Thanks again for posting! I join in the applause of the people of Schererville. "The word of the Lord endures for ever" (1 Peter 1:25)

When you sing a Peterson cantata, you are singing scripture to music. It is beautiful and brings back memories when I was young and in a choir.

I can't believe this cantata is still around! I still have the songbook from when I sang my first solo at 14 years of age, from this cantata. I sang it in Spanish, Duerme Santo Niño. I play it in my home every year for xmas and love the way the piano music just seems to naturally flow from the fingers. Beautiful music, beautiful message. John Peterson was truly inspired by God when composing this cantata. Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing it here!

Feeling very nostalgic. This brings back so many memories! Picturing my dad on the piano, my sister on flute, other relatives and church members singing in the choir. Many have gone on to be with the Lord, and these works are lost arts. Thanks for sharing.

Wow thank you for the amazing flashback from my past life

[emmanuelbavuri]

I love this book i just perform it this year 2022 thanks to the composer

[davidgon]

I heard this cantata in Spanish in Cuba over 45 years ago. This is the best version

[bonniedavis]

A new group. So good. How old were you when you sang this?
☃️🎄🥰

[Zephaniahverse]

Here am I playing this in a blazing June heatwave, a) because I've always loved it, and b) because I want to say Lord, if you are willing to clear out all the idols and rotten attitudes and behaviors, there is room in my heart for you.

I was introduced to John Peterson's cantata pieces when I was young. Made me memorize Scripture passages. Thank you for sharing.

[JacquiWalker-uj]

Thanks for posting this, my choir is working towards singing it in December and it's great for me to use to practise with.

Morning.?ii will praise the Lord all the time

Nice job! I haven't heard this Cantata in years. Thank you for the Memories. What a blessing you were for me this Christmas. God bless you all and Merry Christmas to you all.

[captebbtide]

Sweet memories of Burien Nazarene Church and members of the choir.

Our church and others used to get together to do Peterson Cantata's on Easter and Christmas. They are so beautiful! I played the piano for them and the piano score is wonderful fun to play, your pianist, choir and orchestra did a great job here. Thanks so much for posting it! (I was searching for a good production of Behold the King but not found one yet!)

[jiebensecabalo]

We are praying for this piece to be sung on Christmas, does anyone knows how or where to get this album? thanks and God bless

[karengcox]

Wow! You all were amazing. I sang this in my church choir years ago. I always hear this music when I read the Christmas story from the Bible. I can hardly believe you are a church choir. You sound like professionals. Your musicians are also amazing. I like to imagine we sounded like this, but I’m sure we were not this polished. I loved he violinist. Thank you so much for posting this. I will be listening to this many times this Christmas season.
