>Here’s the story behind the song:
>Â
>About the Song
>Â
>While at the mall a couple of years ago, my then
>four year old nephew, Spencer, saw kids lined up
>to see Santa Claus. Having been taught as a
>toddler that Christmas is the holiday that
>Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus, he
>asked his mom, "where's the line to see Jesus"?
>My sister mentioned this to my dad, who
>immediately became inspired and jotted words
>down to a song in just a few minutes. After
>putting music to the words, and doing a quick
>recording at home, he received a great response
>from friends. He sent the song off to Nashville
>without much response, except for a Christian
>song writer who suggested adding a bridge at the
>end of the first chorus. My dad then asked if I
>wanted to record the song to see what we could
>do with it. I listened to the song, made a few
>changes to the words to make it flow better, and
>we headed to Shock City Studios. It was at the
>studio where Chris, owner and producer, rewrote
>the 2nd verse and part of the chorus... with
>goosebumps and emotions high, we were all
>hopeful and felt like we had something special.
>The demo was recorded in just under 2 hours and
>sent off again to Nashville ... still no
>response. Then 2 weeks before Christmas last
>year, my cousins Greg and Robbie decided to do a
>video to see what we could accomplish on
>YouTube. The first day we had 3000 hits and it
>soared from there. We received e-mails, phone
>calls, Facebook messages from people all over
>asking for the music, CD's, iTunes, anything...
>we had nothin'. After a couple of meetings with
>Chris following the amazing response, we got
>serious. We headed back into the studio this
>past spring... this time with guitars, drums,
>bass, pianos, choirs... the real deal.... and
>here we are today. Getting iTunes set up, a
>website put together, and loving that thousands
>upon thousands of Christians have come
>together... remembering the true meaning of
>Christmas. Out of the mouths of babes come
>profound truths that many adults cannot
>understand. Hopefully Spencer's observation will
>cause people all over to reflect on the love of
>Jesus, and that one day we will all stand in
>line to see Him. We are most thankful to our
>Heavenly Father to have this chance to share our
>music with you. Merry Christmas everyone.
