Bearing gifts we traverse afar
Field and fountain, moor and mountain
Following yonder star

O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to thy Perfect Light

Born a King on Bethlehem's plain
Gold I bring to crown Him again
King forever, ceasing never
Over us all to reign

O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light

Frankincense to offer have I
Incense owns a Deity nigh
Prayer and praising, all men raising
Worship Him, God most high

O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light

Myrrh is mine, its bitter perfume
Breathes of life of gathering gloom
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying
Sealed in the stone-cold tomb

O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light

Glorious now behold Him arise
King and God and Sacrifice
Alleluia, Alleluia
Earth to heav'n replies

O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light

My favorite is "Feliz Navidad" by Jose Feliciano. When that one comes on the volume always gets cranked up!

Oh, me too! Trans-Siberian Orchestra's Carol of Bells and Christmas Eve are my two favorites. I love them both.

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart, the very next day, you gave it away....various artists...

LOL, we are simple folk here! We hear this ALL the time, and Jonah knows the words. So, it is my fave because of that. :)

I'd have to agree! This just actually happened when I was in the car this morning. :)

I love Eartha Kitt's slinky "Santa Baby". Madonna's cover from the '80s is too cutesy for me.

My favorite Christmas carol is an obscure one...

Lo, how a rose e'er blooming from tender stem hath sprung
Of Jesse’s lineage coming, as men of old have sung.
It came, a floweret bright, amid the cold of winter,
When half spent was the night.

Isaiah ’twas foretold it, the Rose I have in mind;
With Mary we behold it, the virgin mother kind.
To show God’s love aright, she bore to us a Saviour,
When half spent was the night.

This Flower, whose fragrance tender with sweetness fills the air,
Dispels with glorious splendor the darkness everywhere;
True Man, yet very God, from sin and death He saves us,
And lightens every load.

I have often sung that as a solo, it is one of my many, many many favorites, and such a pretty melody!
