'King Size Manger' Josh Turner Christmas Song

'King Size Manger' Josh Turner Christmas Song

Country artist Josh Turner rings in the Christmas season with the words of ‘King Size Manger.’ Featured on his first ever Christmas album, this song is all about how a little baby went on to change the entire world.


“There in the hills of Bethlehem
No one had any room for them
They knew that child was a real life changer
Lyin' there in a king-size manger”

Josh Turner is one of the most recognizable names in country music. He shot on the scene with his iconic single, ‘Long Black Train’ and hasn’t stopped since.

‘Me And God’ was a 2006 single and one of his first songs to speak on the subject of faith. In 2018, Josh even released a gospel album, titled ‘My Savior.’ Now, he’s helping us get in the Christmas spirit with the lovely words of ‘King Size Manger.’

“There may not have been a crown on His head
But He fulfilled every word the prophets said”

Josh spoke to Music Row about the challenges creating a Christmas album. There are so many different songs and styles to choose from that it can be hard to narrow down your selections. “We had a lot of fun throwing out all the preconceived notions of what a Christmas record should sound like. In my opinion, it’s about the words and the heart and soul of how a song sounds.”

Christmas is about the birth of our Savior and this song is the perfect reminder that Jesus is King.

Isaiah 9:6 “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”
