project,” said John Berry. “Christmas is the most special time of year
and I believe Do Not Be Afraid is a perfect song for celebrating the
birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”
“I have been a big fan of John Berry since I first heard that amazing
voice more than two decades ago. Over the years, I’ve had the pleasure
of interviewing him and learning that the man behind that voice is just
as impressive off stage in the character he displays and his compassion
towards people,” said Deborah Evans Price. “His Christmas collection is
one of my all-time favorite holiday albums and I’m so thrilled that “Do
Not Be Afraid” is featured on Country FaithChristmas, Vol. 2. Excited
that it is included on such an incredible compilation Christmas album.”

album, which was released in October 2013. Following its release, the
