Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!  I hope your holiday season is peaceful.

I really like Christmas songs.  Here is one of my favorites – I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day!  Here are three excellent versions:

Casting Crowns:

Harry Belafonte:

Jars of Clay:

Enjoy!

Five for Friday – Great Christmas Songs

Our family enjoys Christmas music and we have it playing on our stereo from Thanksgiving to New Year’s Day, but these are the songs that (for various reasons) my wife won’t let me play during Christmas:

One of my all time favorites – David Bowie and Bing Crosby:

Bing (again), this time with White Christmas, which originated in the film Holiday Inn:

Karen Carpenter – an incredibly unique voice – singing Merry Christmas Darling:

Elvis – Blue Christmas (enough said):

Casting Crowns with Silent Night:

And a (Christmas) bonus – Relient K’s version of the 12 Days of Christmas:

Enjoy!
