Folky Christmas

Every year I am reminded of how endearing Christmas songs are. There are countless iterations of the classic songs, and I'm sure we all have our favourites. And then there are new songs that are added to the genre every year, some more successful than others. Here are some of my favourite Christmas songs, new and old. I hope they put a smile on your face.

Sheree Plett singing her wonderful original song "Oh Emmanuel."

Phil Wickham adding his touch to a classic.

Dustin Kensrue captures the spirit of the season in "This Good Night is Still Everywhere."

Don't let the talking farm animals fool you. This song by mewithoutYou is a lyrical feast. Very few modern Christmas songs capture the meaning of Christmas and the Gospel this well and with this much fun and depth. I highly recommend looking up the lyrics to "A Stick, a Carrot & String."
