But then Franklin, who's been playing piano in the background, suddenly brings out a gospel choir and takes us to church, as the song switches from being about falling in love with someone at Christmas, to being about finding \"love for all mankind\" this holiday season, because \"we all need grace to heal our troubled minds.\"

Carey, Khalid and Franklin will perform the song together on Carey's upcoming AppleTV+ special \"Mariah's Christmas: The Magic Continues,\" debuting in December.
