Critical reception
Louder Than the Music, a website dedicated to Christian music, wrote in its review Born Is the King is "eight tracks long but in those eight tracks you know Christmas is here" and gave a 4.5 stars out of 5. Ryan Barbee of American website Jesus Freak Hideout gave the album 3.5 stars out of 5, commenting "it does have something to offer this holiday season, but the downside is that it's only eight tracks long and doesn't have the classic American holiday feel." He found the band rendered the traditional songs beautifully but described original song "Born Is The King" as "the antithesis of a 'White Christmas'" as it has "a very island-tropical melody with childlike fun".
