    That pulse from the bassoon and drum, the vocal approach to this, everything is so well arranged. The chords on "what can I give Him, give my heart" are heart-wrenchingly beautiful....what a fantastic take of this song.

    Jamie is vastly under-rated. When I listen to him, I can see fans AND musicians swooning at his ability. His musicality, and what he brings to this old carol is authenticity, belief and a deep understanding of what being spiritual really means. His style is very intimate too. A really great rendition. Well done, Jamie!

    In the bleak midwinter
    Frosty winds made moan;
    Earth stood hard as iron,
    Water like a stone.
    Snow was falling snow on snow,
    Snow on snow on snow
    In the bleak midwinter
    Long ago.
    Heaven cannot hold Him
    Nor earth sustain,
    Heaven and earth shall flee away
    When He comes to reign.
    In the bleak midwinter
    A stable place sufficed
    Lord God Incarnate
    Jesus Christ.
    Angels and Archangels
    May have gathered there,
    Cherubim and seraphim
    Thronged the air,
    But His Mother only,
    In her maiden bliss,
    Worshipped the Beloved
    With a kiss.
    What can I give Him,
    Poor as I am?
    If I were a Shepherd
    I would bring a lamb;
    If I were a Wise Man
    I would do my part,
    But what I can I give Him,
    Give my heart.

      Dear sister, God gave this thoughts in our hearts. Jesus loves him so much. And he answers prayers. I am glad to hear this song and I pray for touching the hearts of many listeners by this beautiful interoretation Jesus Christ, our Lord and saviour , will come back soon. Everyone who repents and gives his heart to Jesus and trusts in him alone is saved. John 14, 6 Jesus is the way, the truth and the life. Noone comes to the father, but by him. Lets pray for Jamie and his family and all listeners. 🙏
      Hope we will see them in the kingdom of Jesus Christ 👑
