Mariah Carey - Jesus Oh What A Wonderful Child Lyrics

Greatest "short" version of all times, and my personal favorite Gospel AND Christmas song. That recording made me think I wasn't born at the right place and didn't have the right skin... too white :D What a great idea producers "forced" her to record this, while she didn't want to, thinking it was too early in her career. Today she would be absolutly UNABLE to sing this :D Merry Christmas everybody <3 If you think there's no comparison with any other version, you should check this one... recorded 10 years BEFORE. Arrangements are pretty close, and probably inspired M.C. and Walter Afanasieff a lot. It would be nice if they quote it someday. For example, bass line is strictly the same. No offense, just saying... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqjefUV7BZc

I love your comment!

Awesome song

It should be a crime not to listen to mariah's Christmas music every Christmas 😂

My church choir sung this song this morning 🙏🙏❤️❤️

I love this song yes JESUS oh what a wonderful child. Praise wonderful dear sweet GOD our HEAVENLY FATHER through his wonderful dear sweet Son JESUS CHRIST. Mariah took it home to her roots on this one. That’s that black in her with Je Je Je JESUS, and JESUS us JESUS us , JESUS JESUS JESUS. ( not being racist) Yes Mariah praise GOD.

Bitch, I was at the supermarket. And let me tell you, that place transformed into a church thanks to this song! SLAY JESUS!

this sounds like the rendition to joy to the world live 1994

Glory to the newborn King! <3

Yes you got that right. This music is great

MiMi snapped! You can tell she had to sit through quite a bit of church as a kid.

I can feel my southern baptist coming out

I played this so much my daughter’s 6&7 turned Out the Christmas party at their fathers job @Suffolk County Infirmary on LI

How these songs dont have 100s of millions of views? Beats me

If you put your volume at 100% you can hear at the very end Mariah says "wind down" and the song stops before the video stops.

omg how amazing is this song??

had no idea mariah knew jesus as a child personally.. she must be related to noah :o. good yule.

These obscene comments we could have done without ! Regardless of Mariah being from the secular world, this is a Christmas Gospel song and , It should be put in it's perspective ( In other words - should be shown respect due to the song referring to our Lord and Savior, Jesus the Christ. Very disappointed 😞. )

Amen Amen Amen. Dushi disco om. Sing Mariah sing. :). Dios te Bendiga. One love One love

I have a Christmas concert on this song

I love this song it makes me want to shout and cry tears of joy! I love Jesus!

I just love this so much!!

It's very fastistic

My Christmas has now begun. 🎅🎁❄⛄

Queria uma Performance dessa Música 2019

12.7.2019👐

SOOO LONELY!!! Mickey Mouse... 1:54

Still the best

I want her to perform this live 😭

So...yeah... Proof of blackness right here! Celine, Kelly, Christina and Ariana can all sing, but...THIS kind of vocal beastliness can't be taught. It's proof that one's ancestors were slaves. Organic soul.

JESUS!!! Name above all names, King of kings, Lord of lords. Creator of all things! Don’t you love the God who created you. He’s the God who parted the Red Sea and turn water into wine. Don’t you love Jesus. My God has been good to me, has he been good to you? My God is a God of love and a God of miracles!

I love the beat. And most singers would be ashamed to say his name. But she said it. More times then i can count. She isn't ashamed of the name. Sing it mariah.

3:10 KiiiiiiiiiIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING yeaaaa HEY

Mariah Carey’s voice is GLORIOUS

Time to listen to all Mariah Carey's christmas songs :D

At school this is the song we dance only

little did the people know that she recorded this song in a church, with children playing tambourine, gospel singers, and a live band.

One take????? Wow

Jesus, Jesus
Oh what a wonderful child
Jesus, Jesus
So lowly, meek and mild
New life, new hope, new joy He brings
Won’t you listen to the angels sing
Glory, glory, glory
To the new born King

Jesus, Jesus
Oh what a wonderful child
Jesus, Jesus
So lowly, meek and mild
New life, new hope, new joy He brings
Won’t you listen to the angels sing
Glory, glory, glory
To the new born King

He was herald by the angels
Born in a lowly manger
The virgin Mary was His mother
And Joseph was His earthly father
Three wise men came from afar
They were guided by a shining star
To see King Jesus where He lay
In a manger filled with hay

Jesus, Jesus
Oh what a wonderful child
Jesus, Jesus
So lowly, meek and mild
New life, new hope, new joy He brings
Won’t you listen to the angels sing
Glory
To the new born King

Oh Jesus Jesus
Mary’s baby
Lamb of God
Heavenly child
Jesus, Jesus
I Love Him
Oh Jesus
All Mighty God King of kings
Oh Jesus
Oh Jesus
Oh, oh, oh, Jesus
Wonderful, wonderful one
Oh, oh
Oh Jesus
Oh Jesus
Son of God
Oh Jesus
Glory to the new born King, yeah

Wish she sang this at St. John’s. Would have been untouchable

😍😍😘😘😘❤❤❤❤

i can feel my whole body shaking when i listen to this...

Her ad libs are their own soundtrack. The Holy Ghost said yes to this one.

Of all the Christian music I like to jam to, this is my FAVORITE! This'll make you wanna clean your WHOLE HOUSE, even if you only intended on the bathroom!

Not knocking or disrespecting anyone's religion... I believe ALL paths lead to God... With that said if there is the slightest possibility that one "can" catch the Holy Spirit if this song don't do it nothing will HALLELUJAH!!!!! Queen Goddess

Ugh, Jesus is so lucky. 3:21-4:18 Mariah and the choir slay his name so hard and make me fall out.

In the 5th octave, Mariah manages to belt the name Jesus in pretty much every way possible. Outstanding. 1:47 to the end is basically one long climax. 1:58 oh 2:01 won't
2:11 oh here we go | 2:27 oh | 2:34-2:44 insane | 2:57 glory! on repeat | 3:04 to the new | 3:07 born 3:11 king! 3:20 woo! 3:23 oh! 3:32 je-je-je 3:41 oh! 3:45 3:47 jesus 7x 3:53 oh! | 4:02 oh 4:09 woo! 4:10

I can't decide what my favorite part of the song is. Top 3: 2:57 | 3:47 | 4:02 Top 5: 3:32 | 4:10
3:53 "wow" Someone from the studio is shook in the background.

Mariah had an amazing accomplishment when she made this album. Every song is beautifully performed with an absolutely gorgeous voice. She also wrote several songs on this record every song is very sophisticated and unique for a Christmas album. Most of all 24 years later every holiday season this album is just as popular maybe even more than the year it came out in 1994. Mariah is not praised enough for her impressive talent.

Who’s here from A Highlands Christmas.

One of my favorites!

She pulled an Aretha Franklin at the end lol.. I can see ReRe 💃 cross the room lol.

Theo brittnie Ana we had fun on this song on Barclay Ave memories 1997 they were kids love the memories

This song puts Christmas in perspective... We have replaced presence with presents.

She can take it CHURCH BEAUTIFUL VOICE SHE HAS LOVE HER MUSIC SO MUSIC

amazing
