Heard this song for the first time today in Nigeria it was so amazing, and wonderfully rendered I must say I really enjoyed it keep it up Morehouse glee club.
We sang this in my high school choir. Then I went to Superman and heard it live from the Morehouse Glee Club. I still know all the words--which means I know a bit of Yoruba to this day.
This is gorgeous gentlemen!!! No choir does this song better than Morehouse. Keep up the beautiful musicianship and much love from Egypt, from a brother in song (Miami Men's Glee Club, Ohio alum)
I sang with the Atlanta Callanwolde Young Singers every Christmas along with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra and the Morehouse Glee Club. It was televised, it was an amazing experience to be in the company of all these spectacular musicians✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🫶🏿🫶🏿🫶🏿❤❤❤❤❤❤
Dear God💗❤️💗💖❤️❤️❤️💞🙏in heaven, I come to you in the name of Jesus. I acknowledge to You that I am a sinner, and I am sorry for my sins and the life that I have lived; I need your forgiveness. I believe that your only begotten Son Jesus Christ shed His precious blood on the cross at Calvary and died for my sins, and I am now willing to turn from my sin. You said in the bible that if we confess the Lord our God and believe in our hearts that God raised Jesus from the dead, we shall be saved. Right now I confess Jesus as my Lord. With my heart, I believe that God raised Jesus from the dead. This very moment I accept Jesus Christ as my own personal Savior and according to His Word, right now I am saved. Amen.

Its a song about Bethlehem. It says we have found a father we can rely and trust. Where was Jesus born, it was in Bethlehem. We thank you God the father ❤️ for everlasting love
This is great.I also like Oral Roberts doing it which is on TH-cam. The female voice adds something I think and the Contralto soloist is from another planet.

I was a member of the BYU Men's Chorus, singing under Mack Wilberg, the current conductor of the Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square. The year after I graduated--1989-1990--he introduced this song into the choir's repetoire. I believe they were among the first choirs to sing this song. But I could be wrong.

I just love how the tambourine men are just doing these dances in the background
I watched them throughout the piece
When I sang this in college, we listened to this recording religiously. Wonderful musicianship!
Watched this like 100 times! SO TALENTED! The Tambourinists have to sing, play, and dance! And their suits are going crazy!
OMG A HEART!
The tambourines at 2:18. I can’t get enough of that.
…and 2:33!
…aaaand 4:19!
Wonderful rendition. Betelehemu is yoruba for bethlehem. Our language is rich and beautiful!
Most of the men in family are Morehouse graduates (brother, cousins, uncle) and this song just does all of them proud!!
I want to be one of the tambourine men. That's a whole lot of choreography!
