*About Ronnie Milsap*
Born nearly completely blind, he became one of the most successful and versatile country "crossover" singers of his time, appealing to both country and pop music markets with hit songs that incorporated pop, R&B, and rock and roll elements. His biggest crossover hits include "It Was Almost Like a Song", "Smoky Mountain Rain", "(There's) No Gettin' Over Me", "I Wouldn't Have Missed It for the World", "Any Day Now", and "Stranger in My House".
Milsap was sent to Raleigh's Governor Morehead School for the Blind, and that is where he discovered a deep love of music, cultivated by close listening to radio broadcasts. Encouraged by his teachers, Milsap began studying classical music, and while he learned several instruments, he gravitated toward piano. Already a fan of country and R&B, he became obsessed with rock & roll once it hit in 1965. Soon, he was playing in a teenage rock & roll outfit called the Apparitions, which kept him busy until he headed to Georgia's Young Harris College on a full scholarship.
Music kept calling and he did not complete his pre-law program. He continued playing clubs and ended up joined a touring band. Then he signed with Scepter Records who put out “Never Had It So Good” which became Milsap’s first charting hit reaching 19 on Billboard’s R&B chart.
Milsap’s story continues as he is credited with six Grammy Awards and 35 number-one country hits, third to George Strait and Conway Twitty. He was selected for induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2014.

I have heard so many versions of, O Holy night, but this one by Ronnie Milsap is the greatest of all. I just can't get enough of this one🙏 Merry Christmas🎉
This is my absolute favourite version of O Holy Night.
Very powerful song, wonderful! Thank you!
Greatest vocalist ever !!
This is such a beautiful version of O Holy Night. Thank you Ronnie for performing it.
II JUPST LOVE THIS SONG ITS ONE OF MY FAVORITE S.
OOPS I MEANT ......I JUST LOVE THIS SONG ITS ONE OF MY FAVORITES..
@3:16 the most underrated voice of the past 50 years! There's nobody on the charts today who can outsing a prime Ronnie Milsap. How this magnificent version has been ignored by radio programmers for the past 35 years is just pure insanity. As the Josh Groban version eats up the airwaves every December, this masterpiece goes unheard by the music buying public.
Exactly what I have thought since discovering his version! You nailed it.
Probably the best comment I’ve ever heard on any subject… prime Ronnie is the greatest vocalist to ever walk on stage …. His versatility is unmatched. God bless
This is the only version of the song I like, partly because Ronnie is my favorite singer of all time, but also partly because of just how much more splendidly and soulfully Ronnie performs it. Only THE Ronnie Milsap can take a Christmas song with terrible Unitarian theology and abolitionist politics (whereas the original French was of sound Trinitarian theology and emphasized Christ's freeing us from slavery to sin) and make me actually enjoy listening to it.
