Shivers. Also one of my favorites.

But I love "Away in a manger" mostly because of the third verse:

Away in a manger, no crib for his bed
The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head
The stars in the bright sky looked down where he lay
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay

The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes,
But little Lord Jesus no crying he makes.
I love Thee, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky
And stay by my cradle till morning is nigh.

Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever, and love me, I pray.
Bless all the dear children in thy tender care,
And take us to heaven, to live with Thee there.

We have a lady at our church who sings Mary, Did you Know? in a way that will make chillbumps come up. She has been gifted with a beautiful alto voice .

Thankyou Mary for the words of "Away in a Manger"!! When I sing it I can envision it so well

Compost, I really enjoyed Oh come All Ye faithful by Elvis!!!!His was very gifted and He puts the emotion in it which makes it so much better. Thankyou

He has a beautiful voice !

I was listening to a radio program tonight and they were talking about Christmas songs and sharing their favorites. One man said the O Little Town of Bethlehem was especially beautiful and sang the last stanza. I looked it up and it is truly a beautiful song inspired by the Spirit

O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The everlasting Light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight

For Christ is born of Mary
And gathered all above
While mortals sleep, the angels keep
Their watch of wondering love
O morning stars together
Proclaim the holy birth
And praises sing to God the King
And Peace to men on earth

How silently, how silently
The wondrous gift is given!
So God imparts to human hearts
The blessings of His heaven.
No ear may hear His coming,
But in this world of sin,
Where meek souls will receive him still,
The dear Christ enters in.

O holy Child of Bethlehem
Descend to us, we pray
Cast out our sin and enter in
Be born to us today
We hear the Christmas angels
The great glad tidings tell
O come to us, abide with us
Our Lord Emmanuel

Some times the last verse or the skipped verse can have the best message to it.

I love this song, it gets to me every time I hear it!
