Amazon.com's editorial review observed "[it's] an album full of inspiring and festive songs soon to become Christmas classics. The seasons may be flipped with December falling in the middle of summer for Australia and there may not be snow, sleigh rides or chestnuts roasting by an open fire, but there is a common love for a baby born in a manger over 2,000 years ago."[5]Hope 103.2's Stephen O'Doherty interviewed Hillsong members, Ben Fielding, Autumn Hardman and Dave Ware, on his show, Open House, in November 2012 to discuss the album.[6] Timothy Yap of BreatheCast opined "[they] have brilliantly taken some of the best known traditional carols and tagged them with newly written material making them less archaic and fresher on younger ears... this is a folky, country-tinged, understated and sometimes even eclectic effort."[7] Jono Davies of Louder Than the Music rated it at four-out-of-five stars and explained, "jammed packed with well known Christmas tunes and some original ones too... [they] have tried to make so many tracks on the album sound uber cool, which means some traditional songs don't sound as Christmasy as you might expect."[8]
