Anne Wilson's “The Manger” (Christmas Ep)

Capitol CMG artist and Dove Award-winner Anne Wilson continues to bring her faith to life through music with the release of her latest Christmas EP, The Manger. This six-song collection beautifully captures the joy, hope, and spiritual wonder of the birth of Jesus Christ, offering listeners a heartfelt experience that is both timeless and inspiring. With a rich blend of traditional Christmas themes and original music, Wilson brings a fresh perspective to the cherished story of Christ’s birth.

“There’s something just so special about the night that Jesus was born,” says Wilson, reflecting on the inspiration behind the EP. “He came to earth in such a humble and lowly way, and His love was on display for all of us to see. I’m so grateful for this project, and I hope these songs bless you this holiday season.”

The Manger not only celebrates the spiritual significance of Christmas but also serves as a musical reflection of Wilson’s deep-rooted faith. With each track, she invites listeners into a space of gratitude and reverence, reminding them of the true meaning of the season.

One of the standout tracks is the title song, "The Manger," a moving duet featuring renowned gospel singer Josh Turner. Their harmonies weave together to create a powerful message of hope, perfect for this sacred time of year.
