Favorite Christmas/Holiday Carol & Song

[SplitPersonality1]

For me, nothing beats a well sung solo rendition of "O Holy Night". Especially if done during a candlelight service.

1. O Holy Night
2. Mary, Did You Know
3. O Little Town of Bethlehem


How about the rest of you guys. Just curious.


edit: It seems as if everyone is listing three songs, so I will too.
