| AllMusic |    [1] |
AllMusic editor Marvin Jolly noted that "the Winans' remarkably soulful vocals electrify holiday classics like "Jingle Bells," "Joy to the World," "Silent Night" and "Hark, the Herald Angels Sing" on First Christmas, a seasonal collection ideal for fans of the contemporary gospel sound." He rated the album two and a half out of five stars.[1]
