Album Description

When fans reflect on Petra’s legacy, one “what if” always comes up: a Christmas album. While Petra never recorded one, the closest we’ll ever get arrived in 2013 when John Schlitt—Petra’s iconic voice—delivered The Christmas Project on CD.

Now, for the first time ever, the album comes to vinyl in a festive Evergreen pressing, strictly limited to just 200 copies worldwide.

Schlitt brings the same fire, conviction, and vocal power that defined Petra’s greatest moments to timeless holiday classics. His soaring performance of Handel’s Hallelujah Chorus is widely hailed as one of the most powerful renditions ever recorded, while the electrifying “Little Drummer Boy” injects rock & roll grit into a beloved carol. Even the quieter moments, like “O Holy Night” and “What Child Is This?”, highlight his remarkable range and heartfelt delivery. With the original song “What Christmas Needs to Be,” Schlitt ties the project together as more than tradition—it’s a reminder of Christmas as transformation.

"...𝒜 𝐵𝒶𝒷𝓎 𝒸𝓇𝑜𝓌𝓃𝑒𝒹
𝒯𝒽𝑒 𝒽𝑜𝓅𝑒 𝑜𝒻 𝑜𝓊𝓇 𝓈𝒶𝓁𝓋𝒶𝓉𝒾𝑜𝓃
𝐻𝑒 𝒾𝓈 𝓌𝒽𝒶𝓉 𝒞𝒽𝓇𝒾𝓈𝓉𝓂𝒶𝓈 𝓃𝑒𝑒𝒹𝓈 𝓉𝑜 𝒷𝑒…"

Whether you’ve treasured the CD for years or are discovering it for the first time, this Evergreen Vinyl edition is a true holiday keepsake—equal parts collector’s item and seasonal soundtrack. If Petra had ever made a Christmas album, this would be it.
