[SINGING] Said the night wind to the little lamb,
Do you see what I see?
Way up in the sky, little lamb,
Do you see what I see?
A star, a star, dancing in the night
With a tail as big as a kite,
With a tail as big as a kite.
Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy,
Do you hear what I hear?
Ringing through the sky, shepherd boy,
Do you hear what I hear?
A song, a song, high above the trees
With a voice as big as the sea,
With a voice as big as the sea.
[FASTER MUSIC]
Joy to the world, the Lord has come;
Let earth receive her King!
Let ev'ry heart prepare him room,
And Saints and angels sing,
And Saints, and Saints and angels sing.
Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king,
Do you know what I know?
In your palace wall, mighty king,
Do you know what I know?
A son, a son shivers in the cold.
Let us bring him silver and gold.
Do you know what I know?
Do you see what I see?
Do you hear what I hear?
Joy to the world.
Do you know what I know?
Do you see what I see?
Do you hear what I hear?
Joy.
Welcome back to Mormon Channel Studio.
I'm Aubree Liz, your host, and you just
heard a beautiful arrangement of "Do You Hear What I Hear?"
and "Joy to the World" by Marj Desius and company.
Who do you have with you today?
We have Everett Spencer and Camille Nelson.
They are amazing, and I'm really grateful that they joined me
with this journey of music.
They are incredible.
That was so good.
I loved hearing all of you guys perform together.
That arrangement was so cool.
What inspired putting those two songs together?
Well, it's been three years, actually.
I was singing "Do You Hear What I Hear?"
and then, and then in my mind, I was like, "Yeah, I hear joy.
I hear, you know, it's Christmas and it's happiness."
So I like, "You know what?
I just need to put these songs together
because they are both my favorite Christmas songs."
So I just sit there, and then I had a drummer;
he's not with us today.
But then I met Everett and I'm like, "OK, let's do this."
It all came together.
And then I met Camille, and originally we planned it
with the piano, but I'm like, "It sounds better
with the guitar.
Let me just have Camille do it with me."
So, yeah.
It's such a unique sound with all of you together.
I loved it.
I know you have another song for us today.
Can you tell us a little bit about that and the background
behind it?
Well, the other song is actually in my hometown language.
I'm going to be singing in Haitian Creole.
It's a song, it's a very emotional song.
This song is from an artist that we admire a lot, Yole Derose,
in Haiti.
And it's from a story of a little girl who
wrote a letter to Santa.
But it wasn't a letter that was demanding other toys
or anything that she wanted to play with.
It was about peace, about bringing food home,
and "Please bless my brother with some clothing."
So we have had quite an experience this year,
a lot of catastrophe happening, and not
everybody's going to have the same Christmas
that we're probably having.
So it's just a way to remind people that Christmas is about
sharing, about loving and sharing and blessing, so ...
Beautiful, can't wait to hear it.
I'll let you guys take it away.
Thank you.
