Christmas Carols/Songs
I'm immersed in Christmas music right now. I know, it's four months away, but I have to have Christmas music chosen and ordered to start Keynotes in a couple of weeks. I decided to do the program with the most popular Christmas songs/carols. I've hunted through many lists and blogs online, but found they don't include many sacred ones. So, I decided I need to make my own list. Would you please tell me your five most favorite Christmas songs/carols? Thank you!!!

1) Angels We Have Heard on High
2) God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman
3) Silent Night
4) Joy to the World
5) Still, Still, Still
6) Bring a Torch, Jeannette Isabella
7)Merry Christmas Darling (Not sacred but one of my favorites)
No, I want your favorites including sacred ones. So just your favorites. Thanks Ami and Joan!
That is a very hard question. The problem is that whatever my current favorite Christmas Carol is depends heavily on the arrangement. But here goes.
1) Current Favorite - O Holy Night as performed by MoTab and the King Singers
2) The First Noel - as arranged and performed by Eclipse Singers
3) It Came Upon a Midnight Clear - Arranged by Kurt Bestor
4) Angels from the Realms of Glory - MoTab
5) What shall we give to the babe in the manger - Motab
6) Grown-up Christmas List - As performed by Michael Buble
Oh, how I want Christmas to be here!! Just reading the names of all of these songs makes me long to hear them in every store, at church, in my car, in my home...EVERYWHERE! I love the peace and love I feel when I hear Christmas songs. I feel I am better able to understand charity during that season. I already gave you my list, but I have loved reading everyone else's. It has reminded me of others that I love!
