By Request, ‘O Come Let Us Adore Him’

We have a carol entry from Erlene: O Come Let Us Adore Him, by Jordan Smith. It’s sort of a modern upbeat spinoff of O Come All Ye Faithful. I’m glad someone asked for a Christmas song today.

The Sussex Carol

*Sigh*  No carol contest entries this morning; the spirit seems to have gone out of it. I wish Phoebe would come back to us. But what’s there to do but to keep working?

Here, one of my favorites: The Sussex Carol, by Maddy Prior and the Carnival Band.

 

By Request, ‘Angels We Have Heard on High’

Things have not been as they should be here, this week; but let’s see if we can get the Christmas Carol Contest back on track.

Requested by Erlene: Angels We Have Heard on High, sung by the Libera Boys Choir.

By Request, ‘Go Tell It on the Mountain’

Requested by Thewhiterabbit: Go Tell It on the Mountain, performed–on a mountain, naturally, by students at Fountainview Academy. And I wish I could see how they got the piano up there.

By Request, ‘O Little Town of Bethlehem’

Requested by Ina: O Little Town of Bethlehem, sung by Nat King Cole.

I hope we get more entries in our Christmas Carol Contest. Lately it’s not been an easy time for this blog. Please pray for our fellowship.

By Request, ‘Adeste Fideles’

[I have made some bad decisions here, over the past few days, and now I have to try to repair the damage. But first this.]

Requested by Erlene (and I’m running late with this), Adeste Fideles, sung by Andrea Bocelli.

I pray the LORD will heal our spirits.

By Request, ‘My Heart Would Be Your Bethlehem’

Requested by Teddy, and performed in the snow by students at Fountainview Academy: My Heart Would Be Your Bethlehem.

We have a new leader in our Christmas Carol Contest, as of yesterday–21 views, overtaking 20. But of course the lead can change from day to day!

By Request, ‘The First Noel’

I love to hear Nat King Cole sing Christmas carols.

Requested by Erlene, The First Noel, by Nat King Cole (and if you had some other hymn in mind, the error is my fault–but how wrong can we go with this?).

By Request, ‘The Virgin Mary Had a Baby Boy’

Back to the carol contest!

Requested by Ina, The Virgin Mary Had a Baby Boy, sung by Babbie Mason and Jessie Dixon… with some familiar faces from Gaither Music.

Don’t go away, we have another one coming up.

By Request, ‘In the Bleak Midwinter’

Another entry in our annual Christmas Carol Contest, this one from Ina: In the Bleak Midwinter, sung by the Gloucester Cathedral Choir.

Is it beginning to feel like Christmas for you?
