Favourite Christmas Carol

[Templar81]

Was just wondering what people's favourite carols are.

Mine is Good King Wnceslaus, though I 'm told that it isn't a bonafide Christmas carol because it mentions the feast of Stephen which is the 26 of December and we in the UK call it Boxing Day. So I suppsoe really it is aboxing day carol but I like it anyway because of the way it gives us a great example of Christian charity.

I also like "in the bleak mid winter" and "God rest ye merry gentlemen."

O Holy Night

Yes, have you heard Susan Boyle sing it?

"Oh Holy Night" - definitely.


Hearing "Silent Night" sung in German while living in Berlin was very stirring, as well.


Close third:

"Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer."

Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy would one day walk on water?
Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy would save our sons and daughters?
Did you know
that your Baby Boy has come to make you new?
This Child that you delivered will soon deliver you.

Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy will give sight to a blind man?
Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy will calm the storm with His hand?
Did you know
that your Baby Boy has walked where angels trod?
When you kiss your little Baby you kissed the face of God?

Mary did you know.. Ooo Ooo Ooo

The blind will see.
The deaf will hear.
The dead will live again.
The lame will leap.
The dumb will speak
The praises of The Lamb.

Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy is Lord of all creation?
Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy would one day rule the nations?
Did you know
that your Baby Boy is heaven's perfect Lamb?
The sleeping Child you're holding is the Great, I Am.
