Default Favorite Christmas Carol?

Mine is O' Come All Ye Faithful.

I have the best memories of it. Each Sunday I would go to church with my Grandmother. She loved Christmas. I would love going to church with her during the season and singing all the Christmas carols. This was her favorite as well as we would just sing the loudest everytime they played it.

Warm for everyone.

Happy Holidays.

Came out about 10 yrs ago at Christmas time on country stations
, but it's not played anymore.

by Collin Raye
What if Jesus Comes Back Like That


He came to town on an old freight train
He jumped off in the puring rain
Everybody says he's insane
Just a low down account hobo

He made his bed beneath the county bridge
The town folks said that's not his
They signed a petition they're gonna get rid
Of that white trash low down no count

What if Jesus comes back like that
On an old freight train in a hobo hat
Will we let him in or turn our back
What if Jesus comes back like that
Hey what if Jesus comes back like that

Born with a habit of drug abuse
She couldn't help what her mama used
It wasn't like she got to choose
Now she's layin' there all alone

Got a monkey on her back
Nurses say they never saw a smile like that
Doctor says she might stand a chance
If somebody takes her home

What if Jesus comes back like that
Two months early and hooked on crack
Will we let him in or turn our back
What if Jesus comes back like that
Oh what if Jesus comes back like that

Nobody said life is fair
We've all got a cross to bear
When it gets a little hard to care
Just think of Jesus hanging there

He came to town on a cold dark night
A single star was his only light
The baby born that silent night
A manger for his bed

What if Jesus comes back like that
Where will he find out hearts are at
Will he let us in or turn his back
Hey what if Jesus comes back like that
Yeh what if Jesus comes back like that
Will he cry when he sees where our hearts are at
Will he let us in or turn his back
Hey what if Jesus comes back like that
Oh what if Jesus comes back like that

Mine is the Hallelujah Chorus/Handel's Messiah.

We practiced that song from day 1 of each school year, every day until the final show before school break.

We had over 500 high school kids, in red choir robes, on stage singing that song... it was beautiful!!! Every time I hear it today it brings back great memories and give me goose bumps!!

Lightbulb Oh, Holy Night:

Josh Groban:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQWXf...eature=related

Celine Dion.... also a beautiful interpretion:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Jr-2...eature=related
with more feeling! also some of the longest notes you will ever hear!


And almost 50 yrs ago... This beautiful gentle version by Johnny Mathis--when his voice was at its peak. This is the one that I still like the best. Also a long phrase at the end, but with more feeling!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=667zOcXcV4c

I personally think Johnny's is the best.... He was terrific when his voice was at its peak!

This carole never ceases to move me. I think it is the emotive power of the music...some magical beauty.
(also it is a very difficult piece to attempt.... IMO)

I just had to search them out... for myself and for you!

Mary Did You Know is also a fav of mine.

I REALLY love "Christmas Canon" by Trans Siberien Orchestra the most right now though (not to be confused with Christmas Canon Rock also by the same group).

Here's the version I love at MSN videos...

Enjoy!
