This album was originally reviewed in 2009. Here it has been re-released, this time with a Christmas teaching DVD featuring Louie Giglio on the subject "The Twelve Words Of Christmas" presented live in front of what seems to be a large audience. However, I suspect this will not really help sell copies and as good as it is, will have a shorter life span than the average Christmas album. The music disc itself offers nothing new with no bonus tracks or additional songs, which is disappointing. However, for first time visitors, there is the heart-warming vocals of Mr Tomlin singing classics ("Oh Come All Ye Faithfull", "Oh Holy Night") and new songs such as "My Soul Magnifies The Lord". For me however the highlight, is "Winter's Snow" presenting the beautiful vocals of Christy Nockles but of course this is on the original release.
