I've never heard it sung by anyone other than kiddie choirs in church.

Default This is an amazing version

The Blind Boys of Alabama feature Mavis Staples on this version. They call it Born in Bethlehem, but I'm pretty sure it's the same song.

Here's a sample:

This is one of my favorite Christmas albums.

There ya go.

Yay! I was hoping someone would post a link. I noticed it when searching for a Staple Singers version - I started out thinking I could find a Mahalia Jackson version - but didn't find a sample.
