Christmas With The Tabernacle Choir

Jesus, Jesus, Rest Your Head

Not widely known today, 'Jesus, Jesus, Rest Your Head' was an Appalachian Christmas carol, collected from central Kentucky in the early 20th century. It began to gain an audience through solo and choral arrangements during the American folk revival of the 1950s and -60s. Mack Wilberg fashioned his a cappella arrangement of this soothing folk carol especially for this concert.
