I went to my local Christian bookstore and bought this new cd having never heard Mr. Norman before. I am writing this review on the strength of one song - Come and Worship - which is to me the finest Christmas song ever to open a holy-day album and the perfect song to be listening to this advent season. The song was playing on the speakers in the store and I caught it and loved it right off. I am a new fan of the singer and cannot wait to savor each new song - I am doing one per day to make it last. Thanks to all those involved in the project. Merry Christ!

I am a huge Bebo Norman fan, so I was ecstatic when I heard he was making a Christmas CD. "Christmas From the Realm of Glory" does not disappoint! While it has some traditional Christmas songs, such as "Silver Bells" and "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas," you also hear some originals such as my favorite, "Born to Die." A cover of Jackson Browne's "Rebel Jesus" is included to round out the CD. All in all, it's just a beautiful CD that you really need to own. :-)

This is just a terrific Christmas album. We have here a thoughtful collection of music which weaves the story of Jesus' birth into one cohesive piece. Bebo originals, secular Christmas, traditional Christmas with Jackson Browne mixed in to form a real Christmas feast for the ears and heart. Many artists want to do "Christmas Albums", but rarely do we find such an inspired work. Don't buy just your favorites from I-Tunes, without the complete album, you will miss the whole point.

FINALLY, A CHRISTMAS CD FROM BEBO NORMAN....UNLIKE ANYTHING YOU MAY HAVE EXPERIENCED FROM OTHER ARTISTS....NOT THE TRADITIONAL CHRISTMAS MUSIC, AN AMAZING ADDITION TO MY BEBO LIBRARY.

I was looking for a Christmas album that had both the classics and also some new songs. This CD was just what I wanted. Bebo sings with an authentic voice that touches the heart. We listened to the CD more than any other this Christmas. It is wonderful.

This is one of this year's best Christmas albums, a worthy addition to anyone's holiday collection. Bebo's voice is in fine form and the selection of songs is perfect.

I was looking forward to getting some NEW Christmas music this year and Bebo did not disappoint. A great selection of original songs and well known carols given his own rich but understated vocal treatment with a worshipful undertone that's just right.

Excellent Christmas CD. Good choice of songs, wonderful voice, and true to the real meaning of Christmas.

I had heard a couple songs on this album, but wasn't necessarily a fan of Bebo Norman. This turned out to be my favorite album purchased in a long time. It is beautiful and original. Born to Die is just amazing! I highly recommend this album!

This Christmas CD is great!!! It has that Bebo sound that I always enjoy, it's different and fresh!! "Come and Worship", "Born to Die", "Christmas Time is Here" (duet with Amy Grant...not the Peanuts version) and "Mary's Prayer" are some of my favorites! If you enjoy new and fresh Christmas music then I know you will be glad you bought this CD. I can't handle listening to the secular Christmas songs for too long...the ones you hear on secular radio. Don't get me wrong, they're fun and I do like to hear them every so often, but I am so thankful for these Christian artists that breath new life into Christmas music and make you really see the reason for the season!!
