Amber Thompson & Kelly Nelon Clark – Away In A Manger (Gaither Homecoming)
“Away In A Manger” beautifully reminds us of the humble birth of Jesus Christ, the Savior who came into the world in gentleness, love, and perfect peace. This touching Gaither Homecoming performance features a young Amber Thompson singing alongside her mother, Kelly Nelon Clark, daughter of Southern Gospel pioneer Rex Nelon. Their heartfelt rendition captures the innocence and wonder of the first Christmas while reflecting a family’s rich legacy of sharing the Gospel through music. Though Amber and Kelly were taken far too soon while traveling to a ministry event, their testimony and this precious performance continue to point listeners to the hope found in Christ. As we celebrate Christmas in July, may this timeless hymn remind us that the Child in the manger is our risen Lord, whose promise of eternal life gives comfort that reaches far beyond this world.
Merry Christmas… in July!
May the joy and hope of Christ be with you today.
