Santa can give the children everything except peace and love. That is the idea at the heart of “Sing Glory Glory Hallelujah,” the new Christmas single from singer-songwriter Mick J. Clark.

The song imagines what happens when that changes. When children get peace and love in their lives, Clark says, they and the adults around them will sing Glory Glory Hallelujah.

“My song ‘Sing Glory Glory Hallelujah’ is about Santa [being able to] give the children everything, except ‘Peace and Love,’ but when the children do get ‘Peace and Love’ in their lives, they and adults as well will Sing Glory Glory Hallelujah.” — Mick J. Clark

“Sing Glory Glory Hallelujah” adds a message to the Christmas songbook. It carries the warmth of the season, but it also points to what a present under the tree can’t supply. It is a Christmas song with a hope attached, and the hope is a world where children grow up with peace and love.

Clark has no fixed band. He works with backing singers and producers he trusts, and that collaborative approach has shaped his catalogue for years.

It joins “Mick’s Christmas Mix,” his Christmas EP, whose three festive songs have passed 300,000 streams.
