Of the 64 Christmas cd's and cassettes (At the time of this writing)I have, this is my favorite. I've been trying for several years to replace a patched cassette and am truly pleased to see this cd listed here. The arrangements and harmonies are excellent. Sweet Baby Jesus, Steps, and Alleluia (written by Larry Gatlin)are my favorites. But all the others are equally amazing.

Yesssss! I finally found it! I, too, have been trying to find this cd for a long time to replace a vinyl LP that got warped during a move. The Gatlins have the greatest harmonies - especially on the three songs the first reviewer mentioned - Sweet Baby Jesus, Steps, and Alleluia. And the children singing on Away in a Manger will melt your heart - and besides, their sweet little Texas drawls remind me of my childhood in West Texas!

I have an old record of the Gatlin Family Christmas. I purchased the CD along with other Christmas Album CDs for my daughter who cherishes the childhood memories of listening to Christmas Music while baking cookies, decorating the tree, and all the holiday activities we shared as a family. This album was especially coveted because the beautiful harmony of voices for which the Gatlin Brothers are so famous.

Have searched for a CD project of the Gatlins that included the song "Steps". My brother's favorite song and he wore out the cassette. Great to find this on CD and be able to surprise him for Christmas!!!

This is the best music! The three-part harmony is beyond compare! I always enjoy listening to this CD!

I am a big Gatlin Brothers fan however I was a bit disappointed in this CD. 5 of the songs were already included on their other 2 Christmas CDs. The arrangements on some of the songs were very outdated and need updating. The Away in a Manager version was too childish. Their rendition of Sweet Baby Jesus is very heartwarming. I'd love it if they recorded a new CD with traditional Christmas songs.
